In the books
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, Ser Stafford Lannister is the brother of Joanna Lannister. He and his sister were the children of Lord Tytos Lannister's younger brother. Thus, both Joanna and Stafford were first cousins of Tywin and the main branch of the family.
In his youth, Stafford and two more Lannisters were captured by Lady Tarbeck in retaliation for the imprisonment of her husband by Tytos. She threatened to kill the captives if her husband would be harmed. Tywin suggested his father to send Lord Tarbeck back to his wife in three pieces, but the soft-hearted Tytos complied and returned Tarbeck unharmed in exchange for the three Lannisters.
Stafford dies in the Battle of Oxcross, killed by Lord Rickard Karstark. Both Jaime and Brynden Tully consider him a poor commander, as he didn't scout the area believing Robb was far away. Tyrion is also very critical of Stafford for his failure and getting himself killed, calling him "my mutton-headed uncle." Robb had been led by Grey Wind along a goat path and had thus bypasses fortified positions in order to attack undetected.
The Lannister survivors regrouped at Lannisport under Ser Daven Lannister, Stafford's son and widely considered to be a more intelligent commander than his father. Daven wants to avenge his father, but Robb robs him of his vengeance by executing Rickard Karstark.
Jaime reacts indifferently when Catelyn tells him about Stafford's death; he mentions that Cersei used to call him "Uncle Dolt".
Appearances
– "Garden of Bones" (mentioned)
References
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 1.2 Game of Thrones: Season 2, Episode 4: "Garden of Bones" (2012).
Notes
- ↑ In "Winter Is Coming," which takes place in 298 AC, Sansa Stark tells Cersei Lannister that she is 13 years old and Bran Stark tells Jaime Lannister that he is 10 years old. Arya Stark was born between Sansa and Bran, making her either 11 or 12 in Season 1. The rest of the Stark children have been aged up by 2 years from their book ages, so it can be assumed that she is 11 in Season 1. Arya is 18 in Season 8 according to HBO, which means at least 7 years occur in the span of the series; therefore, each season of Game of Thrones must roughly correspond to a year in-universe, placing the events of Season 2 in 299 AC.
