Members of the House

• Lord Gulian Swann: Lord of the House. A man in his early fifties, Lord Gulian was a warrior during Robert's Rebellion. He has seen the deaths of two wives already, although rumor claims he is about to take a third. He is the son of the famous beauty of her day, Jeyne Swann, who was recused by Ser Barristan Selmy in his youth.
• Ser Donnel Swann: Heir of the House. Though not quite the warrior his younger brother is, Ser Donnel is an astute politician. He is thinly muscled and handsome, with the chestnut hair of his family, and a close-shorn beard. He splits his time between Stonehelm and Storm's End, where he is part of Renly Baratheon's court.
• Ser Balon Swann: The second son of Lord Gulian, Ser Balon is tall and broad-chested. Tremendously strong, he is good with the lance, better with the morningstar and exceptional with the bow. Balon is quiet, perceptive rather than sullen.
• Revella Swann: Lady of House Smallwood. Lord Gulian's younger sister, Ravella was married to Lord Theomar Smallwood, in the Riverlands. It has been many years since she has returned to Stonehelm.

Retainers of the House

• Maester Grance: A man equal of Lord Gulian's in years, he has the red hair and green eyes of so many Riverlands families. Though Grance is a maester, he also clearly knows his way around a fighting blade, and keeps in shape with morning drills with Stonehelm's soldiers, who all greatly respect him, giving him the nickname "Maester Bladeraven."

History

House Swann is an old noble house, regarded as proud, powerful and cautious. They have governed these lands for as long as any can remember. They rule from Stonehelm, overseeing a major river route inland to the Stormlands, gaining them much wealth and power. They are probably the second most powerful and influential family in the Stormlands, after the Baratheons.
