Ser Tygett Lannister was a member of House Lannister. He was the second brother of Tywin Lannister, the head of the house. He died of a pox.[2]

History

Like his brothers, Kevan and Gerion, Tygett was overshadowed by their older brother Tywin Lannister. According to his sister Genna, Tygett tried to be his own man. He could not match Tywin and became angry through the years.[3]

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. Tygett died of the pox before the beginning of the books, some time after Tyrek's birth in 285 Al.[5] Tygett probably got on well with Tyrion as he remembered his uncle with some fondness.[6]
