Lambert Tully

Lambert Tully is the younger brother of Lord Androw Tully, and twin of Brynden Tully. He is the current Master of Fairmarket.

Appearance and Character
Lambert stands tall like his twin brother Brynden, but apart from their height and similar facial features, that's where the similarities end. Lambert has always been the scrawny one of the bunch, seemingly never able to hit the muscle growth spurt his brother had. Although remaining skinny his entire life, he has kept a chiseled look about him. His sharp, defined jaw line covered in a light red, short scruffy beard. Lambert always preferred to grow his hair out to a long length, more often than not his wavy red locks would reach his shoulders.

Although well mannered, Lambert would never be considered a kind man. Always blunt and to-the-point, Lambert is not a man that believes in false praises or pointless small talk. Thankfully for his station of birth, he rarely has to put a facade of warm welcomes and friendly words.

Lambert has turned into somewhat of a miser after his teenage years, some lowborn folk even swear up and down they've seen the Tully man dig in mud to pick up a dropped gold coin.

Childhood
Lambert was born in the year 414 AC, mere minutes before his twin brother, Brynden. His entire childhood from as far as he could remember felt like a competition with Brynden, with which he found himself on the losing side more often than not. In typical young boy fashion, they fought constantly, chased each other throughout Riverrun, and spent nearly every waking moment making up their childish games to beat each other in. Unfortunately for Lambert, it seemed as if Brynden took all the physical traits and left none for his smaller twin brother. Not only was he weaker than Brynden, his twin ended up being a natural fighter. Lambert spent a lot of his time growing up nursing some bruise or cut, to say the least.

It wasn't until the both of them turned 9 would they finally spend significant time separated. While Brynden was brought outside on many a day to practice his combat training, Lambert was held inside with the maester. Forced to practice his reading and writing, memorizing the houses of the country, Lambert grew as rebellious as you would expect. He would attempt to sneak out to fight with his brother nearly everyday, and every time he would be caught and brought back inside.

Although he resented it, Lambert took to whatever the maester decided to teach with unprecedented ease. No matter the subject, history, governing, literature, economics, Lambert found it incredibly easy to learn about the world they lived in. Thanks to this, his early teenage years and beyond were much smoother for the Tully. It seemed he finally found his calling in life; his brother could be a great warrior, Lambert would aim to grow up to become a renowned scholar.

Adult Life
The Second Hammer Uprising would prove as uneventful for Lambert as it would for his twin brother outside of the death of their older brother, Edgar. As Androw left Riverrun with a small force, he left the castle to the command of Lambert and Brynden. Although they both co-ruled during this time, Lambert obviously took control of all administration side. The "real ruling" he'd think of it.

This was the opportunity the young Lambert had been waiting for his entire life. A sudden crash course test to put everything he learned to a real life test. Far and away, Lambert appeared to pass; under his rule killed soldiers were adequately replaced, taxes were still collected, laws continued to be enforced, as much as it could during times of war, life seemed to manage to remain constant for the people of Riverrun.

Lambert would find himself still managing a large part of the day to day life of Riverrun. The war took a large mental toll on his father, with Lord Damion fighting internal demons drawing him to deep depression. His older brother Androw took over as the face of leadership of Riverrun, much as Brynden did before, but still Lambert took it upon himself to run the castle. Before long, Damion finally succumbed to his depression and passed in the year 437 AC, leading to Androw to take of as Paramount of the Trident.

Just a year later, after Androw's marriage to Gilliane Stark finally concluded, Lambert convinced his lord brother to appoint him as Master of Fairmarket.
