Tygett married Darlessa Marbrand. They had one son: Tyrek Lannister. Judging by Genna's comment that Jaime fights like him,[4] Tygett was likely a knight of considerable prowess in battle. Around 260 AL, he helped his brother Tywin put down the rebellion of the Reynes and Tarbecks and was at Tywin's side when Tarbeck Hall was destroyed. In 276 Al, he may have been one of the two uncles of Cersei unhorsed by Rhaegar Targaryen in a tourney at Lannisport.
