Emmon Greyjoy

Ser Emmon Greyjoy is the brother of Dagon Greyjoy, the Lord of the Iron Islands, and currently the fourth in line for the Seastone Chair. Once a bold, boisterous and amoral warrior in the ironborn tradition, Emmon was deeply affected by the loss of many friends and countrymen while reaving in the east during the Scarlet Winter. Doubting both the righteousness and efficacy of the Old Way, Emmon left the Iron Islands for the mainland in the year 409, shortly after his older brother's succession to the lordship of Pyke.

During his time in the continent's southern half, Emmon renounced his belief in the Drowned God, embraced the Faith of the Seven, and was squired to an elder knight of House Hightower. Remolded into a pious and dutiful man, he quickly earned a knighthood of his own and was anointed on the steps of the Starry Sept in Oldtown. However, he soon grew weary of Lord Leyton and left for the Riverlands, where he became a household knight for the Freys.

He returned to Pyke in the year 416, determined to advocate for his fellow converts at the court of his elder brother. Though his faith in the Seven and irreverent sense of humor often put him at odds with other ironborn dignitaries, he nevertheless became an integral part of the administration at Pyke. Emmon briefly served as regent when Dagon left for the tournament at Summerhall, proving surprisingly adequate for the task. However, following his brother's return, Emmon was appointed to a new role as a traveling ambassador for House Greyjoy.
