In the books

In the Song of Ice and Fire novels, House Blackwood is a loyal vassal of the Tullys. However, the Blackwoods hold an ancient grudge against their neighbours, House Bracken of Stone Hedge. The two houses, which hold the blood of the First Men in their veins and merged with the invading Andals rather than being completely conquered by them, competed for the throne of the Riverlands when it was an independent kingdom. The enmity and competition continues to this day, though it was radically enhanced when Ser Otho Bracken slew Lord Quentyn Blackwood in a tourney accident roughly a century ago. The enmity was also increased when House Bracken converted to the Faith of the Seven.
