Larys Strong A Song of Ice and Fire / book canon + headcanon / straight / open for shipping

The second son of Lyonel Strong, Lord of Harrenhal, came to King’s Landing when his father was appointed Master of Laws in 105 AC. Glad to leave the dreaded castle of his birth behind but apprehensive about his life at the Red Keep, his father found him a position with the Lord Confessor at the time. The old bureaucrat was unaware of the more hands-on approach Larys took with his position, spending more time in the Black Cells with the torturers than necessary. But he made himself indispensable enough for him to become the next Lord Confessor at eighteen after the old Lord Confessor died. Not long after, he befriended the new Queen Alicent, becoming one of her closest confidants. After the fire at Harrenhal in 120 AC, costing the life of Lyonel Strong and his heir Harwin, Larys became Lord of Harrenhal. Around the year 125 AC, Larys was appointed Master of Whisperers to King Viserys’ small council, a position he would retain under King Aegon II. His loyalty remained with the Greens until the end of the Dance of Dragons. He was beheaded by Cregan Stark for the murder of Aegon II after King’s Landing was taken for Rhaenyra’s son Aegon III.
