[edit] Biography
Jaehaerys was the first-born child of King Aenys I. For unknown reasons, his uncle Maegor I took the Iron Throne before him. After Maegor's death without issue, Jaehaerys took the throne. He inherited from his uncle's reign a war with the Faith Militant. Maegor had used brutal methods to eridicate the rebellion, such as placing bounties on the heads of all members of the Faith Militant, but the rebellion had continued. Jaehaerys pacified the rebellion with the offer of amnesty for all participants and the disbanding of the Faith Militant. This act earned him the name "The Conciliator".
Jahaerys ruled for over five decades and brought to the realm a time of great peace, aided by his beloved sister, the adored queen consort, Good Queen Alysanne, who convinced him to abolish the lord's right to the first night, and his handpicked Hand, Septon Barth, a smith's son who served him for 40 years.
