House Slynt
Talk0this wiki
Lord of Harrenhal (formerly)
For his loyalty, Slynt was named Lord of Harrenhal. Harrenhal is a large and impressive (but also ill-omened) castle in the Riverlands, on the lake known as Gods Eye. However, Harrenhal was held by House Whent, a vassal house of the Tullys, so Slynt couldn't take possession of the castle until the current war between the Lannisters and their Tully and Stark allies is resolved.

History
Edit
Season 1Edit
Lord Eddard Stark asks Janos Slynt, as Commander of the King's Landing City Watch, to assist him in taking Joffrey Baratheon and his mother into custody. Slynt agrees. However, he then betrays Eddard and has his men kill Eddard's bodyguards and retainers. Eddard is imprisoned.[1] As a reward for his service, Janos Slynt is named the Lord of Harrenhal by the king and his small council.[2]
Season 2Edit
Lord Janos loses Harrenhal after being exiled to the Wall by Tyrion Lannister. Now under occupation by House Lannister, Harrenhal has been offered to Lord Petyr Baelish. House Slynt has no seat.
MembersEdit
- Lord Janos Slynt, the head of the family and former Lord of Harrenhal.
In the booksEdit
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, House Slynt is founded as a reward for Janos Slynt's assistance in arresting Eddard Stark. Janos takes for his sigil a bloody spear, gold on a night-black field.
Tywin Lannister ridicules both Slynt's ascension to lordship, and his choice of sigil when he hears of it, commenting that a "bloody meat cleaver would be more appropriate", given the fact that Slynt himself was the lowborn son of a butcher.
