Bethany Blackwood

Bethany Blackwood was the wife of Lord Brandon Tully and the mother of Berena Tully. She died in 402 AC at the very beginning of the Scarlet Winter.

Appearance
Bethany was pretty, if a bit plain. She had red hair, and a pale complexion, and was slender and graceful.

History
Bethany was born in the year 360 AC, and was betrothed to Brandon Tully in 374, marrying him in 376. Their marriage had four children, though only one survived through youth. Berena Tully was born in 386, after Lord Brandon had taken a lover.

Bethany fell into a state of depression when Brandon left Riverrun in 390, but kept her head up for her daughter, Berena. In the year 402, Bethany committed suicide by jumping from Riverrun's battlements into the frozen river below.
