Jon Roxton

Jonothan Roxton, also known as Jon, is a man best described as cold and meticulous. Son of Marc Roxton and his bride Lysa Oldflowers, he is set to inherit the lordship of the Rings once his father passes onto the next life. He wields the black blade, Orphan-Maker.

Appearance
A stocky bull of a man who slightly reaches over six feet, with graying black hair and piercing steel blue eyes.

Character
Known to be intimidating, cold and foreboding.

Armor
Dons a heavy golden wool cloak pinned together with a brooch that depicts the sigil of House Roxton, along with a black supple ringmail hauberk and linen trousers. He wears a unvisored barbute helm that has a crest of laurels to protect his head.

Early Life
Jon was born in the Ring, and raised there as well. Due to being a direct vassal to the Tyrells, he was fostered in Highgarden where he learned the arts of war and charm. Quickly proving himself in the many tourneys of the Reach, he earned quite a name for himself as a young man.

Tourney of King's Landing
He attended the massive tourney, hoping to finally make a name for himself throughout the realm. Unfortunately, he wasn't as experienced as some of the other knights participating and fell early on in the competition. During the joust section of the event, he was injured by a broken lance which gave him a distinctive cut from his chin to his upper lip.

Silver Weddings
Always one to jump at the opportunity to prove himself, he gladly attended the Silver Weddings. There, he was slightly more successful and advanced to the middle groupings before being knocked out. He was glad nonetheless, as he had not embarrassed himself like he did in the Tourney of King's Landing.

Second Hammer Uprising
Roxton answered the call of its liege, and marched to war in the Second Hammer Uprising. Jon, only 22, marched to war and led his father's men in battle. There, he earned a reputation of sorts for his fearlessness. Leading multiple sorties into the enemies flanks even when retreating, he saved many a Reachmen's life while earning the ire and respect of his enemies.

The Hightower Affair
Jon had little to say about the event, but was glad they were further uprooting traitorous scum.

Joining the Gold Cloaks
Seeking further glory, he joined up with the City Watch of King's Landing to bring credit to his name. There, he earned a reputation for his ruthless efficiency. Eventually was named Captain of the Lion Gate, after the former perished in a street brawl and had previously nominated Jon for the position.

The Choosing
The event in which the King Daeron Targaryen was chosen over his half-brother, and dubbed The Choosing by Jon only drew attention from him due to it being held in the Capital itself. The massive influx of people proved to be troublesome, and he found maintaining order to be much more difficult than previously. Eventually it settled, and only further added to his reputation of boldness due to his strategies of fully searching each cart that entered the city as well as personally attacking bandits that arose.
