Lord Rossart was a member of the Alchemists' Guild in King's Landing. He served as Hand of the King to Aerys II for a fortnight.[1]

History

He was the head of the Alchemists' Guild during the reign of Aerys II and one of the key players in the The Wildfire Plot. He was the pyromancer who had cooked Lord Rickard Stark in his armor.[2] After Lord Qarlton Chelsted was burned alive, Aerys made Rossart Hand of the King. As his personal arms he chose a burning torch.[3][4] He was the last Hand of the King prior to Tyrion Lannister to visit the Alchemists' Guild.[5] He was killed by Ser Jaime Lannister during the Sack of King's Landing.[6]
