Revision as of 22:07, 20 May 2016

What to do when you want to add to this page?
  • Is the calculation necessary?
    • Several years of birth or death are specifically stated in the canon work. Is your character not in there? Then he/she is a candidate.
  • Make certain you always put in references when you add something.
  • When you add a calculation, add your results to the character's wiki-page.
  • Does your addition replace the first name underneath a navigation box? Go to the template page to adjust the navigation box, to keep the interlinking up to date.
  • You don't want to add, but you still think a character is missing in the list? Go here and share your thoughts!

Due to editing issues caused by the length of the calculations, the list is divided into four pages. Use the navigation box, or navigate here to page 2, page 3 or page 4. You are currently on page 1.


In the main series and novellas, George R.R. Martin does not state specifically in which year a character has been born or has died. This page lists the calculations to determine such years, years of birth mostly, but also years of death at times, as specific as is possible, for all characters for all this is possible. This information then can be used in articles and serves to give a more complete image of the world of A Song of Ice and Fire.

The Method: The calculations have been made with a few simple rules.

  • 1: A character, both male and female, will be at least 13 years old at the birth of his or her first born child. This age is chosen because of the marriages known in A Song of Ice and Fire (Maegor I got married at the age of 13, Princess Helaena Targaryen was 13 years old, Sansa Stark, though still 12 years old, would turn 13 in only a few days, placing her marriage in the year she would turn 13) and because of simple biology, looking at the fertility of both boys and girls.
  • 2: When discussing siblings, it is assumed that there will be more than 9 months in between the births. Though technically siblings can differ only 9 months in age, this would require the mother to become pregnant within days of having given birth. It is assumed that the mother was allowed a short period of recovery after having given birth, and thus that siblings will be born at least 1 year (12 months) apart. This is only when discussing full-blood siblings. Siblings with the same father, but with a different mother, won't have this issue.
  • 3: Where historic works are concerned, written by maesters, or sources recited from works written by maesters, it can be assumed that the age of a character stated in a year is the age that character would be turning that year. For example, Maegor I Targaryen was born in 12 AC. In historic works, his age in the year 25 AC will be stated as 13 years (the age he would be turning that year), without the maester writing the work checking whether the event being described occurred before or after Maegor’s nameday.[1] This goes for historical works, not for POV-information, like A Game of Thrones and its sequels, or The Hedge Knight, and other tales of Dunk & Egg.


The characters are listed alphabetically, using full names. Maesters (like Maester Aemon), will also be listed alphabetically under their first names, but not under their last names, since they set aside their family name upon becoming a maester. Their full names as they had received at birth will be behind their Maester name between parentheses. Names that belong to several characters (for example, the name Walder Frey) will be listed alphabetically, but will have their nickname listed after their birth name, so they can be distinguished.


For calculations on placings of events, see Calculations of Events.


Addam Osgrey

Birth

Addam was 12 years old in 196 AC.[2] That givens him the following options:

  • 11 turning 12, placing his birth in 184 AC
  • 12 turning 13, placing his birth in 183 AC


No further specifications can be given. Addam was thus born in either 183 AC or 184 AC.

Addam Velaryon

Birth

Addam was 15 years old in 129 AC.[3] As the source for his age concerns a historical work, rule #3 applies, placing his birth in 114 AC.


Addam Velaryon was thus born in 114 AC.

Aegon Blackfyre

Birth

Aegon was 12 years old when he died, in 196 AC.[4][5] Being 12 years old in 196 AC gives the following options:

  • 11 turning 12 in 196 AC, placing his birth in 184 AC
  • 12 turning 13 in 196 AC, placing his birth in 183 AC

Aegon's father, Daemon Blackfyre, married Aegons mother, Rohanne of Tyrosh, in 184 AC.[5] That means that Aegon couldn't have been conceived earlier than 184 AC.

This eliminates 183 AC as a possible birth year for Aegon, leaving only 184 AC.

Aegon Frey (Bloodborn)

Birth

Aegon Frey is at least one year older than his younger brother Rhaegar. Rhaegar was born no later than 273 AC (see Rhaegar Frey), meaning that Aegon was born no later than one year before, in 272 AC.

Aegon was the firstborn child of his father Aenys Frey. Aenys was born no earlier than 240 AC (see Aenys Frey), meaning that Aegon was born no earlier than 13 years after 240 AC, placing his first possible moment of birth in 253 AC.


Aegon was thus born in or between 253 AC and 272 AC.


Note: Aegon's brother Rhaegar was born in or between 269 AC and 273 AC, making it more likely than Aegon was born closer to his maximum of 272 AC, than to his minimum of 253 AC. Though an actual specification cannot be given.

Aegon Frey (Jinglebell)

Birth

Aegon is believed to be some 50 years old in 299 AC.[6] That would place his birth roughly in 249 AC.

No further specifications can be given. Aegon was thus born roughly in 249 AC.

Aegon V Targaryen

Birth

Aegon was judged to be 8 or 9 in 209 AC.[7] Aegon was known to have been both 10 years old and 11 years old in 211 AC.[2][8]

Aegon being 8 or 9 in 209 AC would give the following options:

  • 7 turning 8 in 209 AC, placing his birth in 201 AC
  • 8 turning 9 in 209 AC, placing his birth in 200 AC
  • 9 turning 10 in 209 AC, placing his birth in 199 AC


Aegon being 10 and 11 in 211 AC leaves the following option:

  • 10 turning 11 in 211 AC, placing his birth in 200 AC

In addition, Aegon is stated to have been 20 years old in 220 AC, when he got married.[9] According to rule three (see top of page), as this is stated in a historic work, Aegon would have been turning 20 that year, meaning that he was born in 200 AC.

Aegon V Targaryen was thus born in 200 AC.

Aegon Targaryen (son of Jaehaerys I)

Birth

Aegon's parents, Jaehaerys and Alysanne, got married in 50 AC.[10] Their first child, Aegon,[11] could thus have been born the earliest in 50 AC.

As Aegon will have been at least one year older than his younger sister Alyssa, Aegon will not have been born before 59 AC, one year before Alyssa's last possible year of birth (see Alyssa Targaryen).

Aegon was thus born in or between 50 AC and 59 AC.

Aegon Targaryen (son of Rhaegar)

Birth

The World of Ice and Fire states that on the last day of 281 AC it began to snow in King's Landing, and that it took only a fortnight for the Blackwater to freeze. That caused Aerys II to command the pyromancers to “drive off winter with their magics”, which led to the pryromancers eventually burning their green fires along the walls of the Red Keep for a month. It is then stated that Rhaegar Targaryen wasn't at King's Landing at that moment, nor was he at Dragonstone “with Princess Elia and their young son, Aegon”.[12] That shows that, if Aegon was born in 282 AC, he was born very early in the year.

Elia Martell married Prince Rhaegar in 280 AC, and their first child, Rhaenys, was born later that same year.[13] That mean that Elia and Rhaegar were married within the first three months of the year, and Rhaenys was thus born within the last three months of the year. After Rhaenys' birth, Elia went on bedrest for half a year.[14] With Rhaenys's birth within the last three months of the year, Elia's bedrest would have lasted until any point in either the fourth, fifth or sixth month of 281 AC. (Note that Elia's bedrest might not have lasted precisely 6 months.) Aegon will have been conceived after Elia's bedrest had ended, and with a nine month pregnancy, he will thus have been born no earlier than very late in the year 281 AC.

No further specifications can be given. Aegon Targaryen was thus born in either late 281 AC, or early 282 AC.

Death

Aegon died during the Sack of King's Landing. The Sack of King's Landing took place in 283 AC (see the Sack of King's Landing).

Aegon thus died in 283 AC.

Aegor Rivers

Birth

Aegor is known to have been 24 years old at the Redgrass Field in 196 AC.[4] This would give Aegor the following options:

  • 23 turnign 24 in 196 AC, placing his birth in 172 AC
  • 24 turning 25 in 196 AC, placing his birth in 172 AC


Aegor's mother, Barba Bracken, gave birth to Aegor after Aegon had ascended to the throne. Aegon ascended to the throne in 172 AC. Barba was Aegons fifth mistress. As Aegons sixth mistress, Melissa, “reigned” for five years, and was replaced in 177 AC, meaning she became Aegons mistress in 172 AC, thereby confirming that Barba had seized to be Aegons mistress in 172 AC.[15]

In addition, Aegor was born a fortnight before Princess Daenerys, who was born in 172 AC.[15] As Aegor was born before Daenerys's birth in 172 AC, but after Aegon IV became King in 172 AC, his birth is confirmed to have occured in 172 AC as well.


Aegor Rivers was thus born in 172 AC.

Death

Aegor was 69 years old when he died.[9] Knowing that Aegor was born in 172 AC, following “rule 3”, this means that Aegor died in 241 AC.

Aemon (Targaryen)

Birth

198 AC has been stated Aemon's year of birth in A World of Ice and Fire.[16]

In addition, it is known that Aemon went to the Citadel at the age of 9 or 10.[17] It is known that Aemon was at the Citadel during the Ashford Tourney in 209 AC already.[18] With Aemon's birth having been in 198 AC, he would have turned 9 in 207 AC, and 10 in 208 AC, showing that Aemon either went to the Citadel in 207 AC, 208 AC or 209 AC (9 turning 10).

Aemon Blackfyre

Birth

Aemon was 12 years old when he died, in 196 AC.[4] Being 12 years old in 196 AC gives the following options:

  • 11 turning 12 in 196 AC, placing his birth in 184 AC
  • 12 turning 13 in 196 AC, placing his birth in 183 AC

Aemons father, Daemon Blackfyre, married Aemons mother, Rohanne of Tyrosh, in 184 AC.[5] That means that Aemon could not have been conceived earlier than 184 AC.

This eliminates 183 AC as a possible birth year for Aemon, leaving only 184 AC.

Aemon Targaryen (son of Jaehaerys I)

Birth

King Jaehaerys I and Queen Alysanne got married in 50 AC.[10] Their first child, Aegon,[19] could thus have been born the earliest in 50 AC. Aemon had his first child born in 74 AC.[3] He would have been at least 13 years old upon Rhaenys's birth, and thus, he was born no later than 61 AC. As Aemon is the third born child of Jaehaerys and Alysanne,[19] he could not have been born before 52 AC. Aemon was thus born in or between 52 AC and 61 AC.


No further specifications can be given. Aemon was thus born between 52 AC and 61 AC.

Aemon Targaryen (son of Viserys II)

Death

Aemon is known to have died defending his brother, King Aegon IV Targaryen, from the brothers of Ser Terrence Toyne. Terrence's brothers wanted to take revenge for Terrence's death, which occurred in 178 AC.[15] It is unknown how long after his death, Terrence's brothers tried to take revenge.

It is known that both Aemon and Naerys, his sister, died during Aegon IV's reign, and that Naerys died a year after Aemon.[15] Aegons reign ended in 184 AC, meaning that Aerys's last possible year of death was 184 AC. And thus Aemons last possible year of death was 183 AC.

No further specifications can be given. Aemon died in or between 178 AC and 183 AC.

Aenys Blackfyre

Birth

Aenys was at least a year younger than his elder brother, Haegon I Blackfyre, who was born in 189 AC the earliest (Haegon I Blackfyre). This means that one year later, 190 AC, is the first possible year of birth for Aenys.

Aenys had two older brothers.[20] All of the children of Daemon I had been born before the First Blackfyre Rebellion began in early 196 AC.[5] That means that 196 AC, early in the year, is the last possible moment for Aenys's youngest brother to have been born. Which, in turn, means that 194 AC is the last possible year of birth for Aenys.

No further specifications can be given. Aenys was thus born in or between 190 AC and 194 AC.

Aenys Frey

Birth

Aenys Frey is younger than his brother Emmon by at least one year. Emmon was born in 239 AC (see Emmon Frey), meaning that Aenys was born in 240 AC the earliest.

Aenys is older than his younger sister Perianne by at least one year. Perianne was born in 248 AC the latest (see Perriane Frey), meaning that Aenys was born no later than one year before, in 247 AC.


No further specifications can be given. Aenys was thus born in or between 240 AC and 247 AC.

Aenys I Targaryen

Aenys was 30 years old when he ascended the throne in 37 AC.[21][22] In addition, at his death in 42 AC, Aenys was 35 years old.[21] According to rule #3, this means Aenys turned 30 in 37 AC and 35 in 42 AC, placing his birth in 7 AC.

Aerea Targaryen

Birth

Aerea's parents, Prince Aegon and Princess Rhaena, were married in 41 AC.[21] When Prince Aegon died in 43 AC, it is stated that he left his wife and twin daughters behind,[23] showing that Aerea had already been born by the time of Aegon's death.

No further specifications can be given. Aerea was thus born in or between 41 AC and 43 AC

Aerion Targaryen (Brightflame)

Birth

Aerion was the second born son of Maekar I Targaryen. This means that Aerion was born at least 1 year after his older brother Daeron. Daeron was born in 190 AC the earliest (see Daeron Targaryen), meaning that Aerion was born no earlier than 191 AC.

Aerion was allowed to participate in the Tourney at Ashford in 209 AC,[7] meaning he would have been at least 15 years old. The last possible year Aerion could have turned 15 was thus 209 AC, meaning that he would have been born in 194 AC the latest.


Ser Duncan the Tall judged Aerion to be near his own age (with Duncan himself being 16 or 17 years old) in 209 AC.[7] However, “near his own age” can also mean a year or so older or younger, thus not giving any further specification.


No further specifications can thus be given. Aerion was thus born in or between 191 AC and 194 AC.

Aeron Greyjoy

Birth

Aeron was 16 years old or older when he named his ship The Golden Storm. [24] Aeron's ship went down during the Greyjoy Rebellion in 289 AC,[24] showing that Aeron had turned 16 at least by 289 AC, placing his birth no later than 273 AC.

Aeron's brother Urrigon was 14 years old when he died,[24] in 283 AC.[25] Aeron was younger than Urrigon, making him 13 or younger in 283 AC. If Aeron was 13 years old in 283 AC, he was born in either 270 AC (12 turning 13 in 283 AC), or 269 AC (13 turning 14 in 283 AC). This places Aeron's birth in 269 AC or later.


Aeron was thus born in or between 269 AC and 273 AC.

Aeryn Targaryen

Birth

Aeryn was the sixth child of Jaehaerys and Alysanne.[11] She was at least one year younger than her older sister Daella, and at least seven years older than her youngest sibling, Gael. Daella was born in 54 AC the earliest (see Daella Targaryen (daughter of Jaehaerys I)), meaning that Aeryn was born no earlier than 55 AC.

Gael was born in 83 AC the latest (see Gael Targaryen). Thus, Aeryn would have been born the latest 7 years prior, in 76 AC.


No further specifications can be given. Aeryn was thus born in or between 55 AC and 76 AC.

Aerys I Targaryen

Birth

Aerys was the secondborn son of King Daeron II Targaryen. This means he was thus born at least 1 year after his elder brother Baelor, who was born in 170 AC (see Baelor Targaryen (son of Daeron II)). This would make Aerys's first possible year of birth 171AC.

However, it is stated that the Aerys's aunt Daenerys was born after Daeron II, Aerys's father, himself already had a son, not “sons”, thereby indicating that Daenerys was born after Baelor, but before Aerys. Daenerys was born in 172 AC (see Daenerys Targaryen (daughter of Aegon IV)), so the earliest that Aerys could have been born, would be the year 172 AC (placing his birth behind Daenerys’ birth in the year).

Aerys was older than his brother Maekar, who was born the latest in 178 AC (see Maekar I Targaryen). Between Aerys and Maekar is one other brother, meaning that Aerys was born at least 2 years before Maekar. This makes 176 AC the last possible year of birth for Aerys.


No further specifications can be given. Aerys was thus born in or between 172 AC and 176 AC.

Aerys II Targaryen

Birth

Aerys II was 18 years old when he came into his throne in 262 AC.[13] This gives Aerys the following options:

  • 17 turning 18 in 262 AC, placing his birth in 244 AC
  • 18 turning 19 in 262 AC, placing his birth in 243 AC

As the source for Aerys's age concerns a historical work, rule #3 applies, placing Aerys's birth in 244 AC

Aerys was thus born in 244 AC.

Alayaya

Birth

Alayaya is known to have been 16 years old in 299 AC.[26] That leaves the following options for her:

  • 15 turning 16 in 299 AC, placing her birth in 283 AC
  • 16 turning 17 in 299 AC, placing her birth in 282 AC


No further specifications can be given. Alayaya was thus born in either 282 AC or 283 AC.

Alequo Adarys

Death

Alequo died six years after the War of the Ninepenny Kings ended in 260 AC,[27] placing his death in 266 AC.

Alerie Hightower

Birth

Alerie Hightower is known to be younger than her husband, Mace Tyrell.[28] Mace Tyrell was born in 256 AC (see Mace Tyrell), meaning Alerie was born in 257 AC or later.

Alerie's first born child was born in 276 AC the latest (see Willas Tyrell). Alerie would have been at least 13 years old during Willas's birth, meaning that Alerie will not have been born any later than 263 AC.


No further specifications can be given. Alerie was thus born in or between 257 AC and 263 AC.

Alesander Frey

Birth

Alesander was born at least one year before his sister Alyx, who was born in 282 AC (see Alyx Frey). This makes Alesanders first possible year of birth one year before, 281 AC.

Alesander's father Symond was born the earliest in 252 AC (see Symond Frey). Symond would have been at least 13 years old when Alesander was born, meaning that 265 AC is the earliest possible year of birth for Alesander.


No further specifications can be given. Alesander was thus born in or between 265 AC and 281 AC.

Alester Norcross

Birth

Alester is 8 years old in 299 AC.[29] He is 9 years old in 300 AC.[30] That gives Alester the following options:

  • 7 turning 8 in 299 AC, and 8 turning 9 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 291 AC
  • 8 turning 9 in 299 AC, and 9 turning 10 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 290 AC


No further specifications can be given. Alester was thus born in either 290 AC or 291 AC.

Alicent Hightower

Birth

Alicent was 18 years old when she got married in 106 AC.[31] That gives her the following options:

  • 17 turning 18 in 106 AC, placing her birth in 88 AC
  • 18 turning 19 in 106 AC, placing her birth in 87 AC

However, as the source for Alicent's age in 106 AC concerns a historical work, rule #3 applies, placing her birth in 88 AC


Alicent Hightower was thus born in 88 AC.

Alla Tyrell

Birth

Alla is known to be close to Sansa Stark's age.[32] Sansa Stark was born in 286 AC. This places Alla's birth roughly around 286 AC as well.

Alliser Thorne

Birth

Ser Alliser was a man of some 50 years in 298 AC.[33] Being roughly 50 in 298 AC places his birth roughly in 248 AC.

No further specifications can be given. Ser Alliser was born in roughly 248 AC.

Alyn Frey

Birth

Alyn has been mentioned to have been 3 years old in 299 AC[34][29] and 4 years old in 300 AC.[30] Being 3 years old in 299 AC gives the following options:

  • 2 turning 3, placing his birth in 296 AC
  • 3 turning 4, placing his birth in 295 AC


Being 4 years old in 300 AC gives the following options:

  • 3 turning 4, placing his birth in 296 AC
  • 4 turning 5, placing his birth in 295 AC


No further specifications can be given. Alyn was born in either 295 AC or 296 AC.

Alyn Haigh

Birth

Alyn is at least 1 year younger than his older brother Donnel. Donnel was born in 255 AC the earliest (see Donnel Haigh), meaning that Alyn was born at least 1 year later, in 256 AC.

Alyn is a squire, a position which can be granted to a child from the age of 8.[35] This means that Alyn cannot be younger than 8 years in 299 AC, meaning the youngest Alyn can be is 7 turning 8 in 299 AC, which would place his birth in 291 AC. So Alyn was born no later than 291 AC.


Alyn was born in or between 256 AC and 291 AC.

Alyn Velaryon

Birth

Alyn Velaryon was the younger brother of Addam Velaryon.[3] Addam was born in 114 AC (see Addam Velaryon). Thus, Alyn was born at least one year later the earliest, in 115 AC.


No further specifications can be given. Alyn was thus born in 115 AC or later.

Note: It would seem that Alyn was born rather close to 115 AC, as he believed that he could get a place as a Regent of King Aegon III in 132 AC. If born in 115 AC, he would have been 17 years old. Born any later, would make him younger. In addition, Alyn was given command over a mission to sail against the Stepstones later in 132 AC, and was given command as well when he sailed against the Red Kraken in 133 AC/134 AC. Someone who is not yet considered an adult in Westeros (16 years), would be unlikely to be given the command over such missions, nor would someone who isn't yet an adult by Westerosi law have any chance at getting a council seat as being a Regent to a King.

Death

Alyn Velaryon had bastard twins with Princess Elaena Targaryen, after Elaena was freed from the Maidenvault in 171 AC.[36] Alyn went away, by ship, and never returned. It is unknown when Alyn left Westeros, but a year after his disappearance, Elaena gave up hope for his return, and agreed to wed elsewhere.[36] This marriage was Elaena's first, to Ossifer Plumm, in 176 AC.[36] Thus, by 176 AC, Alyn had already died (or so history would record it).

As it is unknown how much time passed between Elaena agreeing to marry elsewhere, and her actually marrying in 176 AC, it is technically possible that Alyn's disappearance occured rather quickly after Elaena having been freed from the Maidenvault. Therefore, Alyn's death thus can be said to have occured in or between 171 AC and 176 AC. No further specifications can be given.

Note: As it is most likely that only little time passed between Elaena agreeing to marry elsewhere, and Elaena actually marrying, Alyn's actual disappearance seems to have appeared closer to 176 AC than to 171 AC.

Alys Arryn

Birth

Alys was the younger sister of Jon Arryn.[37] Jon Arryn was born in or between 217 AC and 220 AC (see Jon Arryn), so Alys was born at least one year after Jon's first possible year of birth, placing her birth in 218 AC or after.

Alys gave birth to nine children, first eight daughters, then one son. The youngest of the daughters gave birth to a son, Harrold Hardyng.[37] Harrold was born in either 281 AC or 282 AC (see Harrold Hardyng). This means that in 282 AC at the latest, Alys's youngest daughter would have been at least 13 years old. In addition, as this concerns Alys's 8th daughter, Alys herself would have been at least 20 years old when this daughter was born, meaning that Alys was at least 33 years old when Harrold was born. That places Alys's birth no later than 249 AC.


No further specifications can be given. Ronnel was thus born in or between 218 AC and 249 AC.

Alys Karstark

Birth

Alys Karstark is 15 years old in 300 AC.[38][39] That gives her two options:

  • 14 turning 15 in 300 AC, placing her birth in 285 AC
  • 15 turning 16 in 300 AC, placing her birth in 284 AC


No further specifications can be given. Alys was thus born in either 284 AC or 285 AC.

Alys Stone

Birth

Alys is known to have been 2 years old in 300 AC.[40] That gives her the following options:

  • 1 turning 2 in 300 AC, placing her birth in 298 AC
  • 2 turning 3 in 300 AC, placing her birth in 297 AC

No further specifications can be given. Alys was thus born in either 297 AC or 298 AC.

Alysane Mormont

Birth

Alysane is almost of an age with Asha Greyjoy, suggesting Alysane is either a few years younger, or a few years older.[41] Asha Greyjoy was born in either 275 AC or 276 AC (see Asha Greyjoy). Technically, Alysane could thus have been born a few years before this time frame the earliest, placing her birth no earlier than about 273 AC the earliest.

Seeing as how Alysane has a 9 year old daughter (girl was 9 in 300 AC,[41] so born in either 291 AC or 290 AC) in 300 AC, and seeing as how she must have been at least 13 when the girl was born, Alysane was at least 13 years old in either 291 AC or 290 AC, placing her birth no later than 278 AC. 278 AC differs two years with 276/275 AC minimally. Asha's description about Alysane's age suggests an age difference of a few years, Alysane seems to have been born in or between 276 AC and 278 AC.


No further specifications can be given. Alysane was thus born in or between ~273 AC and 278 AC.

Alysanne (daughter of Aegon IV)

Birth

Alysanne's mother, Megette, was the mistress of King Aegon IV from 155 AC until 158 AC. Alysanne is listed as the first, and thus supposedly eldest, of four children.[15] This would place Alysanne's birth in 155 AC.

Alysanne Bulwer

Birth

Alysanne Bulwer is 8 years old in 299 AC.[32][29] She is still 8 years old in 300 AC.[30] This shows that Alysanne was 7 turning 8 in 299 AC, and 8 turning 9 in 300 AC, placing her birth in 291 AC.

Alysanne Osgrey

Birth

Alysanne was 7 when she was send to King's Landing as a hostage after the Blackfyre Rebellion, and 20 when she died in the Great Spring Sickness,[8] in either 209 AC or 210 AC.

Being 20 years old in either 209 AC or 210 AC gives the following options:

  • 19 turning 20 in 209 AC, placing her birth in 189 AC
  • 20 turning 21 in 209 AC, placing her birth in 188 AC
  • 19 turning 20 in 210 AC, placing her birth in 190 AC
  • 20 turning 21 in 210 AC, placing her birth in 189 AC

The Blackfyre Rebellion ended in 196 AC.[42] Alysanne was 7 when she was taken to King's Landing. It is unknown when the hostages were taken exactly (in a Feast for Crows, House Blackwood is given 6 months to send a hostage to King's Landing, for example). If Alysanne was 7 years old in 196 AC, that gives the following options:

  • 6 turning 7 in 196 AC, placing her birth in 189 AC
  • 7 turning 8 in 196 AC, placing her birth in 188 AC

If she had been send to King's Landing as a hostage at a later moment, her birth would have occured later. None of the three options given above can be eliminated.

No further specifications can be given. Alysanne was thus born in either 188 AC, 189 AC, or 190 AC.

Death

Alysanne is known to have died due to the Great Spring Sickness.[2] The Spring Sickness claimed victims in both 209 AC[5] and 210 AC.[43] It currently cannot be specified during which year Alysanne died.

Alysanne Targaryen

Birth

Alysanne’s birth was confirmed in the reading of The Sons of the Dragon from the upcoming Fire and Blood to have been 36 AC.[44]

Death

Alysanne predeceased her husband, King Jaehaerys I Targaryen.[31] Jaehaerys died in 103 AC.[31] Alysanne's youngest daughter, Princess Gael, died in 99 AC, and Alysanne is said to have died within a year of Gael’s death.[10] With Gael’s death in 99 AC, Alysanne thus died in either 99 AC or 100 AC.

Jaehaerys and Alysanne were married in 50 AC, and said to have been married for 46 years. The couple had two falling outs, The First Quarrel, and, The Second Quarrel. The Second Quarrel lasted from 92 AC until 94 AC, and the First Quarrel is stated to have lasted one or two years.[10] When the year of marriage, 50, is added to the years Jaehaerys and Alysanne were married, 46, and the time of the Second Quarrel, 2, the year 98 AC is reached. With the First Quarrel having lasted either 1 or 2 years, no better clarification can be given on the year of death of Alysanne, as we reach either 99 AC (98+1) or 100 AC (98+2).

No further specification can be given. Alysanne died in either 99 AC or 100 AC.

Alyssa Blackwood

Birth

Alyssa's eldest child was Lothar Frey. Lothar was born in 266 AC the latest (see Lothar Frey), meaning that Alyssa was born no later than 13 years prior, placing her birth no later than 253 AC. No minimum birth year can be given.

Death

Alyssa’s youngest child was Tyta Frey, who was born in 269 AC the earliest (see Tyta Frey). This means that Alyssa died no earlier than 269 AC.

Alyssa's husband was Walder Frey. She was his fourth wife. Walders fifth wife gave him no children, but Walder sixth wife, Bethany Rosby, did. Bethany's eldest child by Walder was born no later than 278 AC (see Perwyn Frey). This means that Perwyn was conceived no later than 278 AC, and thus that the marriage of Bethany and Walder will have taken place no later than 278 AC. Since it is possible that Walder's fifth wife, Sarya Whent, was married to him only for a short time, before dying, and since it is possible that Walders fourth wife, Alyssa, had died only shortly before Walders marriage to Sarya, Alyssa could have died in early 278 AC the latest.


No further specifications can be given. Alyssa thus died between 269 AC and 278 AC.

Alyssa Targaryen

Birth

Alyssa is the second born child of Jaehaerys I and Alysanne.[11] Alyssa is at least one year older than Aemon. Aemon was born in 61 AC the latest (see Aemon Targaryen (son of Jaehaerys I)), so Alyssa would have been born in 60 AC the latest.

As Alyssa is the second born child, she would have been born in 51 AC the earliest, one year later than her brother Aegon (see Aegon Targaryen (son of Jaehaerys I)).

Alyssa was thus born in or between 51 AC and 60 AC.

Alyx Frey

Birth

Alyx has been mentioned to have been 17 years old in 299 AC[34][29] and in 300 AC.[30] Being 17 years old in both 299 AC and 300 AC means she was 16 turning 17 in 299 AC, and 17 turning 18 in 300 AC, placing her birth in 282 AC.


Alyx Frey was thus born in 282 AC.

Amarei Crakehall

Birth

Amarei's eldest son, Hosteen, was born in 258 AC the latest (see Hosteen Frey). Amarei will have been at least 13 years old at Hosteens birth, placing her birth no later than 245 AC. No minimum birth year can be given.

Death

Amarei died before Catelyn Tully was born.[45] Catelyn was born in 265 AC the latest (see Catelyn Tully), making 265 AC the last possible year for Amarei to have died.

Amarei's youngest son Raymund was born in 264 AC the earliest (see Raymund Frey), making 264 AC the earliest possible year for Amarei to have died.

Amarei died in either 264 AC or 265 AC. No further specifications can be given.

Ambrose Butterwell

Birth

Ambrose was 50 years old in 211 AC.[8] That gives him the following options:

  • 49 turning 50 in 211 AC, placing his birth in 161 AC
  • 50 turning 51 in 211 AC, placing his birth in 160 AC


No further specifications can be given. Ambrose was thus born in either 160 AC or 161 AC.

Amerei Frey

Birth

Amerei has been mentioned to have been 16 years old in 299 AC.[34][29] This leaves two options for Amerei:

  • 15 turning 16 in 299 AC, placing her birth in 283 AC
  • 16 turning 17 in 299 AC, placing her birth in 282 AC


Jaime Lannister judges Amerei to be “some 18 years” halfway through 300 AC.[46] If Amerei is 18 years old in 300 AC, this gives the following options:

  • 17 turning 18 in 300 AC, placing her birth in 282 AC
  • 18 turning 19 in 300 AC, placing her birth in 281 AC


282 AC is the only overlapping year. Amerei was thus born in 282 AC.

Androw Frey

Birth

Androw has been mentioned to have been 3 years old in 299 AC[34][29] and 4 years old in 300 AC.[30] Being 3 years old in 299 AC gives the following options:

  • 2 turning 3, placing his birth in 296 AC
  • 3 turning 4, placing his birth in 295 AC


Being 4 years old in 300 AC gives the following options:

  • 3 turning 4, placing his birth in 296 AC
  • 4 turning 5, placing his birth in 295 AC


No further specifications can be given. Androw was born in either 295 AC or 296 AC.

Ardrian Celtigar

Birth

Ardrian Celtigar is known to be an old man in 299 AC, but not as old as ancient Lord Estermont.[47] If it is Lord Eldon Estermont who is described as “ancient” (as there is some confusion amongst the Estermonts, see House Estermont/Theories), than Ardrian would be younger than Eldon. Eldon was born in or between 228 AC and 232 AC (see Eldon Estermont), meaning that Eldon was born in 228 AC the earliest, and that Ardrian was born at least one year later, possibly more. That places Ardrians birth no earlier than 229 AC. No maximum can be given.

Areo Hotah

Birth

Areo Hotah came to Dorne with Lady Mellario of Norvos. He swore his vows at the age of 16, indicating that when he came to Dorne, he was either 16 years old or older.[48] Hotah had arrived in Dorne by the time of Tyrion Lannisters birth,[49] which took place in 273 AC.[13][43] It is possible that Hotah and Mellario had arrived earlier.


This places Hotah's birth in 257 AC or before. No further specifications can be given.


Note: The year 257 AC as Areo's year of birth is an absolute maximum. It seems highly likely that he is somewhat older, and thus born somewhat earlier than 257 AC.

Arianne Martell

Birth

Arianne is 23 year old in 300 AC.[50] This leaves two options:

  • 22 turning 23 in 300 AC, placing her birth in 277 AC
  • 23 turning 24 in 300 AC, placing her birth in 276 AC


Arianne mentions she was 7 years old when Elia Martell died in 283 AC.[51] Being 7 in 283AC gives the following options:

  • 6 turning 7, placing her birth in 276 AC
  • 7 turning 8, placing her birth in 275 AC


The year 276 AC is the only overlapping year. Arianne was thus born in 276 AC.

Arlan of Pennytree

Birth

Ser Arlan of Pennytree died in 209 AC at an age “closer to sixty than fifty”.[7] Closer to sixty than fifty means that Ser Arlan was between the age of 56 and 59, possibly to turn 60 later in the year, giving him the following possibilities:

  • 55 turning 56 in 209 AC, placing his birth in 153 AC
  • 56 turning 57 in 209 AC, placing his birth in 152 AC
  • 57 turning 58 in 209 AC, placing his birth in 151 AC
  • 58 turning 59 in 209 AC, placing his birth in 150 AC
  • 59 turning 60 in 209 AC, placing his birth in 149 AC


No further specifications can be given. Arlan was thus born in or between 149 AC and 153 AC.

Note: as Arlan is said to have seen the last dragon alive when he was a boy, the year 153 AC for Arlans birth seems highly unlikely, as it was 153 AC when the last dragon died.[52]

Arthur Dayne

Birth

Arthur Dayne was a member of the Kingsguard in 276 AC.[13] At the age of fifteen, Jaime Lannister was the youngest to join the Kingsguard ever,[53][54] indicating Arthur was at least sixteen years old when he joined the Kingsguard. As 276 AC is the year of the first mention of Arthur being a Kingsguard knight, he was at least sixteen years old in 276 AC, though possibly older. This means that Arthur Dayne was born in 260 AC the latest.

No further specifications can be given. Arthur Dayne was born in 260 AC or before.

Arwood Frey

Birth

Arwood would have been at least 13 years old when his firstborn child was born. His firstborn child is Ryella Frey, who was born in 294 AC (see Ryella Frey), meaning that Arwood was born the latest 13 years prior, in 281 AC.

Arwoods father Hosteen would have been at least 13 years old when Arwood was born. Hosteen was born in 250 AC the earliest (see Hosteen Frey), making Arwoods first possible moment of birth 13 years later, in 263 AC.


No further specifications can be given. Arwood was thus born in or between 263 AC and 281 AC.

Arwyn Frey

Birth

Arwyn is known to have been 14 years old in 299 AC,[6][34] and in 300 AC.[30][55] Being 14 years old in both 299 AC and 300 AC means she was 13 turning 14 in 299 AC, and 14 turning 15 in 300 AC, placing her birth in 285 AC.

Arya Stark

Birth

Arya is 9 years old when the royal court is visiting Winterfell in 298 AC.[56] Arya tells Roose Bolton she is 10 years old when he takes Harrenhal in 299 AC.[57] Arya is still 10 after Joffrey Baratheon's wedding, in 300 AC, when she's on the ship to Braavos.[58] With Arya being 10 in both 299 AC and 300 AC, Arya was 9 turning 10 in 299 AC and 10 turning 11 in 300 AC. This also means that Arya was 8 turning 9 in 298 AC. Arya was thus born in 289 AC.

Asha Greyjoy

Birth

Asha is 3 years older than her younger brother Theon.[59] Theon was born in either 278 AC or 279 AC (see Theon Greyjoy). With Asha being 3 years older than Theon, Asha would have been born in either 276 AC or 275 AC.


No further specifications can be given. Asha was thus born in either 275 AC or 276 AC.

Ashara Dayne

Birth

Ashara Dayne is known to have been "in her thirties" in 300 AC, had she lived.[60] This would mean that Ashara, in 300 AC, was between the ages of 31 and 39, though it is possible she would be turning 40 later in the year. This would place Ashara's birth in or between 260 AC and 269 AC. No further specifications can be given.

Aurane Waters

Birth

Aurane Waters is known to have been 22 years old in 300 AC.[54] This gives Aurane the following options:

  • 21 turning 22 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 278 AC
  • 22 turning 23 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 277 AC


No further specifications can be given. Aurane was born in either 277 AC or 278 AC.



Baelon Targaryen (son of Jaehaerys I)

Birth

Baelon's first child was born in 77 AC. Baelon woud have been at least 13 years old at the birth of his first born child, meaning that Baelon was born in 64 AC the latest. Baelon was the fourth born child of Jaehaerys I and Alysanne, who got married in 50 AC. This means that the first possible moment of Baelons birth would have been in the fourth year of marriage, which would be 53 AC.

Baelon was thus born in or between 53 AC and 64 AC.

No further specifications can be given. Baelon was thus born in or between 53 AC and 64 AC.

Death

Baelon's death has been confirmed to have occurred in 101 AC.[10]

Baelor Targaryen (son of Daeron II)

Birth

Baelor Targaryen was 39 years old when he died in 209 AC.[7] This gives Baelor the following options:

  • 38 turning 39 in 209 AC, placing his birth in 170 AC
  • 39 turning 40 in 209 AC, placing his birth in 169 AC

It is known that Baelor was 17 years old when Princess Daenerys, his aunt, wed Prince Maron Martell.[5] Daeron II started the negotiations for Daenerys's marriage soon after he became King (he became king in 184 AC), and the negotiations lasted 2 years, where Maron agreed to be betrothed to Daenerys, once she was of age. Daenerys was married to Maron a year later.[5]

With Baelor's possible years of birth being 170 AC and 169 AC, Baelor was 17 years old in either

  • 186 AC (born in 169 AC, having been 16 turning 17)
  • 187 AC (born in 169 AC, having been 17 turning 18)
  • 187 AC (born in 170 AC, having been 16 turning 17)
  • 188 AC (born in 170 AC, having been 17 turning 18)

According to “rule 3”, the second and fourth option are not valid, as this is sourced by a historical work from Yandel. This leaves only 186 AC and 187 AC for the possible year of Baelor having been 17, and thus as the date for Daenerys's wedding. As at least 3 years passed between Daeron II ascending the throne (in 184 AC) and Daenerys and Maron marrying, 186 AC is no longer an option.

This shows that, according to Yandel, Baelor turned 17 in 187 AC, placing his birth in 170 AC.

Baelor Targaryen was thus born in 170 AC.

Baelor I Targaryen

Birth

Baelor was 17 years old in 161 AC.[36] As the source for his age concerns a historical work, rule #3 applies, placing Baelor’s birth in 144 AC

Balerion (son of Aegon IV)

Birth

Balerion was the youngest of three children of Bellegere Otherys and King Aegon IV Targaryen. Bellegere and Aegon were together from 161 AC until 171 AC.[15] This would place Balerion’s birth in 163 AC the earliest, at least one year after his elder sister Narha, and in 172 AC the latest.

Balerion was thus born in or between 163 AC and 172 AC.

Barba Bracken

Birth

Barba was 16 years old in 171 AC.[15] As the source for her age concerns a historical work, rule #3 applies, placing Barba's birth in 155 AC.

Barristan Selmy

Birth

Barristan was 23 when he was raised to the Kingsguard during the reign of Jaehaerys II, thus in either 259 AC, 260 AC, 261 AC, or262 AC.[61][22][62][63] This gives Barristan the following options:

  • 22 turning 23 in 259 AC, placing his birth in 236 AC
  • 23 turning 24 in 259 AC, placing his birth in 235 AC
  • 22 turning 23 in 260 AC, placing his birth in 237 AC
  • 23 turning 24 in 260 AC, placing his birth in 236 AC
  • 22 turning 23 in 261 AC, placing his birth in 238 AC
  • 23 turning 24 in 261 AC, placing his birth in 237 AC
  • 22 turning 23 in 262 AC, placing his birth in 239 AC
  • 23 turning 24 in 262 AC, placing his birth in 238 AC

This gives Barristan the options of 235 AC to 239 AC

It is known Barristan slew Maelys I Blackfyre before joining the Kingsguard,[62] which Barristan is known to have done in 260 AC.[27] Thus, Barristan cannot have joined the Kingsguard in 259 AC, eliminating the first two options given above. Therefore, Barristan was born in 236 AC, 237 AC, 238 AC, or 239 AC.


In 300 AC, Barristan thinks to himself it has been 53 years since the tourney at Blackhaven, when he was 10.[64][62][65] This means the tourney at Blackhaven occurred in 247 AC. Being 10 years old in 247 AC, gives the following options:

  • 9 turning 10 in 247 AC, placing his birth in 237 AC
  • 10 turning 11 in 247 AC, placing his birth in 236 AC

This leaves only the options 236 AC and 237 AC, eliminating 235 AC, 238 AC, and 239 AC.


Barristan is known to be 63 years old in the year 300 AC.[65] This leaves two options:

  • 62 turning 63 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 237 AC
  • 63 turning 64 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 236 AC

Further, Barristan was 61 years old in 298 AC during the Tourney of the Hand.[66] This leaves the following options:

  • Either 60 turning 61 in 298 AC, placing his birth in 237 AC
  • Either 61 turning 62 in 298 AC, placing his birth in 236 AC

As well, Barristan is known to have been 16 years old in 253 AC.[66][62] That gives the following two options:

  • Being 15 turning 16 in 253 AC, placing his birth in 237 AC
  • Being 16 turning 17 in 253 AC, placing his birth in 236 AC

Each of these entries show that the options of 235 AC, 238 AC and 239 AC are eliminated, leaving only two options.


Barristan was 57 when winning a tourney.[62] This tourney took place in 294 AC.[67] Barristan being 57 in 294AC means he was:

  • 56 turning 57 in 294 AC, placing his birth in 237 AC
  • 57 turning 58 in 294 AC, placing his birth in 236 AC

This gives no further clarification


Barristan, who was 61 years old during the Tourney of the Hand in 298 AC, was also 61 when he was fired from the Kingsguard by Joffrey Baratheon.[62] It is unknown in which year this event takes place (either in late 298 AC or early 299 AC):

  • 60 turning 61 in 298 AC, placing his birth in 237 AC
  • 61 turning 62 in 298 AC, placing his birth in 236 AC
  • 61 turning 62 in 299 AC, placing his birth in 237 AC

(Due to being already 61 in 298 AC, Barristan could not have been 60 turning 61 in 299 AC, which is why this option is not available.)

This gives no further specification.


Barristan was named to the Kingsguard at the age of 23 only after killing Maelys I Blackfyre.[62] Barristan killed Maelys during the War of the Ninepenny Kings, in 260 AC, late in the year.[68]

  • If Barristan was born in 236 AC, he would have been 23 turning 24 in 260 AC
  • If Barristan was born in 237 AC, he would have been 22 turning 23 in 260 AC

Both options remain.


Thus Barristan Selmy was thus born in either 236 AC or 237 AC. No further specifications can be given.

Barsena

Birth

Barsena is roughly 30 years old in 300 AC,[69] placing her birth roughly around 270 AC. No further specifications can be given.

Bella

Birth

Bella was conceived during the Battle of the Bells, which took place in 283 AC (see Battle of the Bells).[70][71] After the Battle of the Bells, Eddard Stark was married to Catelyn Tully. They conceived a child within a fortnight of their wedding, Robb, who was born in 283 AC (see Robb Stark). Since Robb was conceived after Bella was conceived, and Robb was both conceived and born in 283 AC Bella will thus have been born in 283 AC as well.

Bellenora Otherys

Birth

Bellenora was the eldest of three children of Bellegere Otherys and King Aegon IV Targaryen. Bellegere and Aegon were together from 161 AC until 171 AC.[15] This would place Bellenora's birth in 161 AC the earliest, and in 170 AC the latest (as she would have two younger sibling).

Bellenora was thus born in or between 161 AC and 170 AC.

Ben (Orphan)

Birth

Ben is 6 years old in 300 AC.[72] That gives him the following options:

  • 5 turning 6 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 294 AC
  • 6 turning 7 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 293 AC


No further specifics can be given. Ben was born in either 293 AC or 294 AC.

Ben Beesbury

Birth

Ben Beesbury was at least 80 years old when he became a potential suitor to Arianne Martell. He died a few years later.[50]

It is unknown when Doran Martell began to propose betrothals to Arianne. It is most likely that he did not do this while she was too young, though it definitely occurred after the secret document was signed. The document was signed before Ser Willam Darry got sick. Darry got sick when Daenerys Targaryen was 5 years old[73], so either in 289 AC or 290 AC (see Daenerys Targaryen). This makes 290 AC the last possible year where Darry and Oberyn Martell could have signed the contract.


In 290 AC, Arianne Martell would have been turning 14. Since Arianne was 14 years old when Daemon Sand asked for her hand in marriage,[50] it is possible that Doran Martell started here, though possibly he began earlier.

If Doran began in 290 AC with proposing marriages, that would be the first year that Ben Beesbury might have been considered. Ben has been mentioned in 300 AC to have been dead for a few years (he died a few years after having been proposed as a suitor, and in 300 AC is thus dead). That suggests that between the proposal and his death at least 2 years had passed. Since it is mentioned he died a few years after the proposal, and not that he died “this year”, there seem to be at least 3 years in between the proposal and 300 AC. This would mean that Beesbury was at least 80 years old in 297 AC the latest, and in 290 AC the earliest.

Being 80 years old in 297 AC (possibly turning 81 later in the year), would place Bens birth in 216 AC. Being at least 80 years old in 290 AC would place Beesbury's birth in 210 AC or later.


Ben Beesbury was thus born in or between 210 AC and 217 AC. No further specifications can be given.

Benfrey Frey

Birth

Benfrey is an older brother of Olyvar, Roslin and Willamen, and a younger brother of Perwyn. Perwyn was born no earlier than 270 AC (see Perwyn Frey). Benfrey comes next, so the earliest he could have been born is one year later than Perwyn, meaning that Benfrey was born no earlier than 271 AC.

Willamen comes after Benfrey, and Willamens earliest possible year of birth is 280 AC (see Willamen), meaning that Benfrey was born at least one year before Willamen, meaning that Benfrey was born no later than 279 AC.


No further specifications can be given. Benfrey was thus born in or between 271 AC and 279 AC.

Benjen Stark

Birth

Benjen Stark was the younger brother of Brandon, Eddard and Lyanna Stark.[64] Lyanna was his first elder sibling. She was born in either 266 AC or 267 AC (see Lyanna Stark). That Benjen was born after Lyanna, shows that he would have been at least one year younger than her, placing his birth in 267 AC the earliest, though it is possible he was born later.


Note: Benjen tells Jon Snow that he was younger than Jon when getting truly drunk for the first time. Jon is, at that moment, 14 years old.[74]. This means that Benjen got drunk for the first time no earlier than 281 AC (in which year he would be 13 turning 14 according to his minimum birth year), at the maximum age of 13.

Benjicot Blackwood

Birth

Benjicot was 11 years old in 130 AC.[3] That gives him the following options:

  • 10 turning 11 in 130 AC, placing his birth in 119 AC
  • 11 turning 12 in 130 AC, placing his birth in 118 AC

Following “rule 3” (see top of the page), the second option is not valid, leaving only 119 AC as a possible year of birth.

Benjicot was thus born in 119 AC.

Beren Tallhart

Birth

Beren Tallhart is 9 years old during the Harvest Feast in 299 AC.[75] That gives him the following options:

  • 8 turning 9 in 299 AC, placing his birth in 290 AC
  • 9 turning 10 in 299 AC, placing his birth in 289 AC


Later on in 299 AC, Beren has turned 10.[29] Being both 9 and 10 years old during 299 AC, shows that Beren turned 10 in 299 AC, and was thus born in 289 AC.

Beric Dondarrion

Birth

Beric Dondarrion was almost 22 years old when he went out to bring Gregor Clegane to justice.[76] This means he was still 21 years old. It is known that this event occured in 298 AC, since Eddard Stark mentions Robert Baratheon has been the King for 15 years after Beric has left King's Landing,[77] placing this events still in 298 AC (Robert Baratheon was crowned in 283 AC[55]).This means that Beric has the following options:

  • 20 turning 21 in 298 AC, placing his birth in 277 AC
  • 21 turning 22 in 298 AC, placing his birth in 276 AC


No further specifications can be given. Beric is thus born in either 276 AC or 277 AC.

Death

Beric died his seventh and final time three days after the Red Wedding.[78][79] Robb Stark was preparing to march to Moat Cailin, and to attack it at the first day of 300 AC.[80] Moat Cailin is located at the northern border of the Neck, whereas the Twins are located south of the Neck,[81] and the time to cross the Neck has been established to be 12 days.[82] Since Robb was to leave the day after the wedding, and believed he could be in position to attack Moat Cailin by the first day of 300 AC, he thus seemed to be certain a journey stated earlier to last at least for about 12 days could be completed before then. Having been 12 days away from Moat Cailin, with Beric dying dying on the third day, Beric's death thus occured before the new year began, in 299 AC.

Betha Blackwood

Birth

Betha was 19 years old when she married Prince Aegon Targaryen in 220 AC.[9] As rule #3 applies, this would place Betha's birth in 201 AC

Bethany Blackwood

Birth

The girl is judged to be no older than 7 in 300 AC by Lord Bracken.[83] Lord Tytos Blackwood later confirmed that Bethany is actually 8 years old.[83] Being 8 years old in 300 AC gives Bethany the following options:

  • 7 turning 8 in 300 AC, placing her birth in 292 AC
  • 8 turning 9 in 300 AC, placing her birth in 291 AC


No further specifications can be given. Bethany was thus born in either 291 AC or 292 AC.

Note: Since Lord Bracken believes that Bethany cannot be older than 7, it seems likely that she was born in 292 AC. If she had been born in 291 AC, she would have been turning 9 later during the year.

Bethany Bracken

Birth

Bethany was the younger sister of Barba Bracken, who was born in 155 AC (Barba Bracken). This would means that Bethany was born in 156 AC or later.

No further specifications can be given.

Bethany Rosby

Birth

Bethany's firstborn child, Perwyn Frey, was born in 278 AC the latest (see Perwyn Frey). Bethany will have been at least 13 years old at Perwyns birth, placing her birth no later than 265 AC. A minimum birth year cannot be given.

Death

Bethany's youngest child was born in 282 AC the earliest (see Roslin Frey). That means that Bethany was still alive in 282 AC at least, though she could have died during the birth, or later in the year. The first possible year in which Bethany died is thus .

Bethany was Walder Frey's sixth wife. In 285 AC, Walder's seventh wife has given birth to Arwyn Frey (see Arwyn Frey). This means that Arwyn was conceived in 284 AC, and that thus Walders marriage to his sixth wife took place no later than 284 AC. This means that Bethany died no later than 284 AC.


No further specifications can be given. Bethany thus died in or between 282 AC and 284 AC.

Boremund Baratheon

Birth

Boremund was the firstborn child of Alyssa Velaryon and Lord Robar Baratheon. Alyssa and Robar married in 50 AC, half a year after Prince Jaehaerys turned 16. This places their wedding at least 6 months into the year 50 AC, meaning that their firstborn, Boremund, could not have been born in 50 AC anymore, as a pregnancy lasts 9 months, making the first possibility of his birth 51 AC.

Boremund's younger sister Jocelyn was born in 61 AC the latest (See Jocelyn Baratheon). That means that Boremund was born at least a year before, in 60 AC.


Boremund was thus born in or between 51 AC and 60 AC.


Note: Boremund's mother was born in 7 AC according to a semi-canon source.[84] As menopause generally occurs around the age of ~50, Boremund cannot have been born any later than ~57 AC. However, since there is no set age at which menopause occurs, it cannot be used to state a firm maximum.

Bradamar Frey

Birth

Bradamar has been mentioned to have been 10 years old in 299 AC[34][29] and in 300 AC.[30] Being 10 years old in both 299 AC and 300 AC means he was 9 turning 10 in 299 AC, and 10 turning 11 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 289 AC.


Bradamar was thus born in 289 AC.

Brandon Stark (Bran)

Birth

Bran is 7 years old in 298 AC[85], the day the news of Jon Arryn's death arrives at Winterfell (an event known to have taken place in 298 AC)[86]. Bran turns 8 a while later.[87] He is still 8 years old after the year has turned into 299 AC, after the Walders have arrived at Winterfell.[88]. Bran turns 9 before news of Oxcross reaches Winterfell.[89][90] This is an event known to have happened in 299 AC (see War of the Five Kings). With Bran being both 8 and 9 during 299 AC, shows that he was 8 turning 9 in 299 AC, and was therefore born in 290 AC.

Brandon Tallhart

Birth

Brandon was 14 years old in 299 AC.[34][29] That gives the following options:

  • 13 turning 14 in 299 AC, placing his birth in 285 AC
  • 14 turning 15 in 299 AC, placing his birth in 284 AC


No further specifications can be given. Brandon was thus born in either 284 AC or 285 AC.

Brienne of Tarth

Birth

When Brienne was no older than 13, Renly Baratheon had just turned 16.[91] Renly was born in 277 AC (see Renly Baratheon). This means that Renly turned 16 in 293 AC. With Brienne having just turned 13 in 293 AC, this places her birth in 280 AC.


Concluded can be that Brienne was born in 280 AC.

Bronn

Birth

Bronn is said to have been in his early to mid-thirties, as stated by GRRM after the release of a Clash of Kings,[92] meaning that Bronn in in his early to mid-thirties in 299 AC. That would place his birth between 268 AC and 264 AC.

Bryan Frey

Birth

Bryan Frey would have been born at least one year after his older sister Walda. Walda was born the earliest in 280 AC (see Walda Frey (Fair Walda)), meaning that the first possible year of birth for Bryan is 281 AC.

Bryan is a squire in 299 AC, meaning that the youngest he could possibly have been in 299 AC was 8.[35] Turning 8 in 299 AC would place Bryan's birth in 291 AC.


No further specifications can be given. Bryan Frey was thus born in or between 281 AC and 291 AC.

Bryen

Birth

Bryen was at least 80 years old in 300 AC.[93] This places his birth in 220 AC or before. No further specifications can be given.

Brynden Tully

Birth

When Jaime Lannister was a squire (which he was from the age of 11 until the age of 15), he went to Riverrun. Jaime notes he was a squire “as green as summer grass”, indicating that this took place in one of the earlier years of his being a squire (at the age of 11, 12 or 13). At this event, Jaime met Brynden Tully. Jaime remembers that Brynden had been younger than Jaime was when remembering it (34), and Jaime himself was younger than his own squire (who was 15) was at that moment. [94]

This means that when Jaime was 11, 12 or 13 (which happened in the years 277 AC, 278 AC, 279 AC, and 280 AC), Brynden Tully was 34 years old at the maximum, though it is possible that Brynden would be turning 35 later in the year.

If Jaime's visit to Riverrun took place in:

  • 277 AC, and Brynden was 34 turning 35 that year, Brynden would have been born in 242 AC
  • 278 AC, and Brynden was 34 turning 35 that year, Brynden would have been born in 243 AC
  • 279 AC, and Brynden was 34 turning 35 that year, Brynden would have been born in 244 AC
  • 280 AC, and Brynden was 34 turning 35 that year, Brynden would have been born in 245 AC


This shows that Bryndens earliest moment of birth took is 242 AC. If Brynden was any younger during the event, if that took place in 277 AC, Bryndens birth would take place later. If the event itself took place in one of the later years, Brynden would have been born later. The year 242 AC is Bryndens earliest possible year of birth.


Brynden was a young knight during the War of the Ninepenny Kings,[95] in 260 AC.[27]

Knighthood can be received from the age of 15.[96] This means that Brynden was at least 15 years old during the war, which took place in 261 AC the latest. Turning 15 in 260 AC would place Bryndens birth in 245 AC.


No further specifications can be given. It can be concluded that Brynden was born in or between 242 AC and 245 AC.



Catelyn Tully

Birth

Catelyn is two years older than her sister Lysa.[97] At one point, Catelyn described a memory, during which she herself was no older than Sansa (who was 12 at that time), Lysa younger than Arya (who was 9, soon to turn 10) and Petyr Baelish even younger still.[98] This indicates that Petyr was younger than Lysa by at least one year (otherwise, it would have stated that Petyr was the same age as Lysa had been at that point in time).

Sansa and Arya are two years apart in age.[74][56][82] However, looking at the moment during the year their namedays take place, it is clear that Arya's nameday falls early in the year, while Sansa's nameday falls at the end of the year. So even though they are born 2 years apart,[74][56][82] they actually differ about 2 years and a few months in age.

Looking at Catelyn's memory, she states there that she and Lysa are further apart in age than Sansa and Arya, yet she and Lysa still qualify as being two years apart in age. So Catelyn and Lysa differ nearly 2,5 years in age. Petyr was "younger still" during the memory, meaning he was at least 1 year younger than Lysa (otherwise they would have had the 'same age'). So between Catelyn and Petyr seems to be at least 3 years in age.

Petyr was born in 268 AC (see Petyr Baelish), and if Catelyn is at least 3 years older, that would place her birth no later than in 265 AC.

Amarei Crakehall died before Catelyn Tully was born.[45] Amarei's son Merrett was born in 262 AC (See Merrett Frey). Amarei had two younger sons after Merrett, meaning that Amarei couldn't have died before 264 AC. As Catelyn could only have been born after Amarei's death, Catelyn cannot have been born before 264 AC.

Thus, Catelyn Tully was born in either 264 AC or 265 AC. No further specifications can be given.

Death

Catelyn dies during the Red Wedding,[99] the news of which arrives at King's Landing before Joffrey's wedding,[100] which will take place on the first day of 300 AC.[101] The Red Wedding has thus occurred in 299 AC, meaning that Catelyn died in 299 AC

Cerelle Lannister

Birth

Cerelle was 3 years old in 212 AC.[43] As the source for her age concerns a historical work, rule #3 applies, placing Cerelle's birth in 209 AC.

Death

Cerelle became Lady of Casterly Rock in 212 AC, after her father Tybolt died. She died less than a year later, after which the seat was inherited by her uncle, Gerold.[43] Gerold ruled for 31 years, and died in 244 AC.[43] This places Cerelle's death in 213 AC.

Cersei Frey

Birth

Cersei has been mentioned to have been 6 years old in 299 AC.[34][29] This gives the following options:

  • 5 turning 6 in 299 AC, placing her birth in 293 AC
  • 6 turning 7 in 299 AC, placing her birth in 292 AC


No further specifications can be given about Cersei Frey. She was born in either 292 AC or 293 AC.

Clement

Birth

Brother Clement was 48 years old when he died in 300 AC.[102] That gives the following options:

  • 47 turning 48 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 252 AC
  • 48 turning 49 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 251 AC


No further specifications can be given. Brother Clement was thus born in either 251 AC or 252 AC.

Cleos Frey

Birth

Cleos Frey is the eldest son of Emmon Frey and Genna Lannister. Both Emmon and Genna would have been at least 13 years old at the time of his birth. Emmon was born in either 237 AC or 238 AC (see Emmon Frey), Genna was born in either 245 AC (see Genna Lannister). Genna is younger than her husband Emmon, and thus the measure used for calculating.

With Genna having been born in 245 AC, and with her needing to have been at least 13 years old when Cleos was born, Cleos was born no earlier than 13 years after 245 AC, making 258 AC the first possible year of birth for Cleos.

Cleos's eldest son Tywin was born no later than 288 AC (see Tywin Frey). Cleos would have been at least 13 years old when Tywin was born, meaning that Cleos was born no later than 13 years prior to 288 AC, making the year 275 AC the last possible year of birth for Cleos.


No further specifications can be given. Cleos Frey was thus born in or between 258 AC and 275 AC.

Cley Cerwyn

Birth

Cley was 14 years old during the Harvest Feast in 299 AC.[75] This gives him the following options:

  • 13 turning 14 in 299 AC, placing his birth in 285 AC
  • 14 turning 15 in 299 AC, placing his birth in 284 AC


No further specifications can be given. Cley was thus born in either 284 AC or 285 AC.

Clydas

Birth

Clydas is at least 60 years old in 300 AC.[103] That places his birth in 240 AC or earlier.

Colmar Frey

Birth

Colmar was 11 years old in both 299 AC and 300 AC.[34][29][30][55] Being 11 years old in both 299 AC and 300 AC means that Colmar was 10 turning 11 in 299 AC, and 11 turning 12 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 288 AC.

Corlys Velaryon

Birth

Corlys Velaryon was 79 years old when he died in 132 AC.[52] As the source for Corlys's age concerns a historical work, rule #3 applies, thereby placing Corlys's birth in 53 AC

Cregan Karstark

Birth

Cregan Karstark is past 50 in 300 AC.[39] This places his birth roughly in 249 AC.


Note: Cregan's brother Arthor is judged to be 50 years old in 300 AC[104] That suggests Cregan will not be that much older than 50 himself either.

Cregan Stark

Death

Cregan Stark's son Rickon died in one of the final battles during the Conquest of Dorne. This battle occured in either 157 AC or 158 AC. Rickon is named Cregan's heir at this point in history, indicating that Cregan still ruled Winterfell. Thus, Cregan died in 157 AC or after. No further specifications can be given.

Creighton Longbough

Birth

Creighton was in his fifties[105] in 300 AC.[91] That means in 300 AC he was 51 years old at the youngest, and 59 years old at the latest, though it is possible he would be turning 60 later in the year. That gives him the following options:

  • 50 turning 51 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 249 AC
  • 51 turning 52 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 248 AC
  • 52 turning 53 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 247 AC
  • 53 turning 54 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 246 AC
  • 54 turning 55 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 245 AC
  • 55 turning 56 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 244 AC
  • 56 turning 57 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 243 AC
  • 57 turning 58 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 242 AC
  • 58 turning 59 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 241 AC
  • 59 turning 60 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 240 AC


No further specifications can be given. Creighton was thus born in or between 240 AC and 249 AC.

Cressen

Birth

Cressen mentions he is not far from his 80th nameday in early 299 AC.[106] That shows Cressen is still 79 years old. Being 79 years old in 299 AC gives Cressen the following options:

  • 79 turning 80 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 220 AC
  • 79 turning 80 in 299 AC, placing his birth in 219 AC


No further specifications can be given. Cressen was born in either 219 AC or 220 AC.

Death

Cressen died after the Red Comet had already appeared in the sky. The Red Comet is visible for the first time in 299 AC (see 298 AC to 299 AC). Cressen thus died in 299 AC.

Cynthea Frey

Birth

Cynthea has been mentioned to have been 9 years old in 299 AC[34][29] and in 300 AC.[30] Being 9 years old in both 299 AC and 300 AC means she was 8 turning 9 in 299 AC, and 9 turning 10 in 300 AC, placing her birth in 290 AC.


Cynthea was thus born in 290 AC.

Cyrenna Swann

Birth

Cyrenna Swann gave birth to her first born child, Jared, in either 249 AC the latest (see Jared Frey). With her firstborn child born in 249 AC the latest, and with Cyrenna having been at least 13 years old when her eldest child was born, Cyrenna cannot have been born any later than 13 years prior to 249 AC, in 236 AC.


No further specifications can be given. Cyrenna was thus born in 236 AC or before.

Death

Cyrenna was the second wife of Walder Frey. Walder's eldest child by his third wife, Hosteen, was born no later than 258 AC (see Hosteen Frey). That means that Hosteen was conceived no later than 258 AC, and thus that Walder married his third wife no later than 258 AC. This means that Cyrenna could have died no later than 258 AC.

Cyrenna's youngest son, Luceon, was born in 249 AC the latest (see Luceon (Frey)), meaning that 249 AC is the first possible year in which Cyrenna could have died.


No further specifications cannot be given. Cyrenna thus died in or between 249 AC and 258 AC.



Dacey Mormont

Birth

Dacey Mormont was born at least one year before her sister Alysane. Alysane was born in 278 AC the latest (see Alysanne Mormont). This means that Dacey was born 277 AC the latest.

Dacey's mother would have been at least 13 years old when Dacey was born. Maege Mormont was born the earliest in 239 AC (see Maege Mormont), meaning that Dacey could have been born the earlierst in 252 AC


No further specifications can be given. Dacey Mormont was thus born in or between 252 AC and 277 AC, though it seems most likely, considering the ages of Maege's other children, that Dacey was born close to 277 AC.

Daella Targaryen (daughter of Jaehaerys I)

Birth

Daella was married in 80 AC, and gave birth to her first child in 82 AC.[10] That means that in 82 AC, she would have been at least 13 years old, meaning that she was born no later than 69 AC. However, Daella is known to have lived at least until the age of 16,[10] and thus was at least 16 years old when she died in 82 AC. That means that Daella was born no later than 66 AC.

Daella is the fifth born child of Jaehaerys and Alysanne,[11] who were married in 50 AC.[10] Thus, Daella would have been born no earlier than 54 AC, one year after Baelon (see Baelon Targaryen (son of Jaehaerys I)), and the fifth year of the marriage of Jaehaerys and Alysanne.


No further specifications can be given. Daella was thus born in or between 54 AC and 66 AC.

Daella Targaryen (daughter of Maekar I)

Birth

Daella was at least one year younger than her brother Aemon, but at least one year older than her brother Aegon. As Aemon was born in 198 AC,[16] and Aegon in 200 AC (see Aegon V Targaryen), Daella would have been born in 199 AC.

Daella was thus born in 199 AC.

Daemon II Blackfyre

Birth

Daemon was 7 years old in 196 AC, and 22 in 211 AC.[8] Being 7 years old in 196 AC gives the following options:

  • 6 turning 7, placing his birth in 189 AC
  • 7 turning 8, placing his birth in 188 AC

Being 22 in 211 AC gives the following options:

  • 21 turning 22, placing his birth in 189 AC
  • 22 turning 23, placing his birth in 188 AC


No further specifications can be given. Daemon was thus born in either 188 AC or 189 AC.

Death

Daemon was captured after his rebellion failed in 211 AC.[107] He was kept alive, as this would prevent Aegor Rivers from crowning his brother Haegon the new Blackfyre Pretender. Haegon was crowned such eventually, and began his own rebellion in 219 AC.[107] Since Haegon was able to launch his own rebellion, Daemon will have died before, making Haegon the new Pretender. Thus, Daemon died in or between 211 AC and 219 AC.

No further specifications can be given.

Daemon Targaryen

Birth

Daemon died at the age of 49 in 130 AC.[3] This gives him the following options:

  • 48 turning 49 in 130 AC, placing his birth in 81 AC
  • 49 turning 50 in 130 AC, placing his birth in 80 AC

Following rule #3, this eliminates the option of 80 AC, and places Daemon's birth in 81 AC.

Daemon III Blackfyre

Birth

Daemon III was the eldest son of Haegon I Blackfyre,[5] who was born in 189 AC the earliest (Haegon I Blackfyre). Haegon would have been at least 13 years old when his first child was born, meaning that Daemon III was born no earlier than 202 AC.

No further specifications can be given. Daemon was born in or after 202 AC.

Daemon Sand

Birth

Daemon Sand was 14 years old when Arianne Martell was 14 years old.[108] Arianne Martell was born in 276 AC (see Arianne Martell). She would have been 14 years old in 290 AC (13 turning 14) and 291 AC (14 turning 15). So Daemon was 14 years old in either 290 AC or 291 AC. That gives him the following options:

  • 13 turning 14 in 290 AC, placing his birth in 276 AC
  • 14 turning 15 in 290 AC, placing his birth in 275 AC
  • 13 turning 14 in 291 AC, placing his birth in 277 AC
  • 14 turning 15 in 291 AC, placing his birth in 276 AC


Daemon is known to be older than Arianne, though not by much.[51] As Arianne Martell was born in 276 AC (see Arianne Martell), Daemon will have been born either the same year, or before, eliminating 275 AC as a possibility.


No further specification can be given. Daemon was thus born in either 275 AC or 276 AC.

Daena Targaryen

Birth

Daena was the third born child of King Aegon III and Queen Daenaera. [109] She was thus at least one year younger than her brother Baelor, who was born in 144 AC (see Baelor I Targaryen), placing her birth no earlier than 145 AC.

Daena was married to her brother Baelor in 160 AC,[36] meaning that she would have been at least 13 years old in 160 AC, thereby placing her birth no later than 147 AC.

Daena was 16 years old when Baelor ascended the throne in 161 AC.[110] As this would concern a more historical work reference, Daena thus turned 16 the year Baelor ascended the throne, and thus, was born in 145 AC.


Daena Targaryen was thus born in 145 AC.

Daenaera Velaryon

Birth

Daenaera Velaryon was 6 years old in 133 AC.[52] As the source for her age concerns a historical work, rule #3 applies, meaning that Daenaera was born in 127 AC.

Daenerys Targaryen (daughter of Aegon IV)

Birth

Daenerys Targaryen was born when her brother Daeron II Targaryen was already married and already had a son of his own.[111] Daeron's eldest son is Baelor Breakspear, born in 170 AC (see Baelor Targaryen (son of Daeron II)), showing that Daenerys was born the earliest in 170 AC. Further specification, however, is possible.

Daenerys was born two years after Daemon Blackfyre,[5] who was born in 170 AC.[15] That places Daenerys's birth in 172 AC.

Daenerys was thus born in 172 AC.

Daenerys Targaryen (daughter of Aerys II)

Birth

Eddard Stark mentions that Daenerys Targaryen is 14 years old in 298 AC.[112] This leaves the following possibilities:


In addition, it is known that Daenerys learns she is pregnant on her 14th nameday.[113] Daenerys's pregnancy is discussed on two occasions in King's Landing, after the Tourney of the Hand has ended. The Tournament of the Hand of the King occurs at least 6 months into 298 AC, if not more, giving an indication, but not specifying that Daenerys turned 14 in 298 AC.


When Dany is following the comet, she mentions she is still 14 years old.[114] The comet has appeared in the sky in 299 AC (see 298 AC to 299 AC).[115] This means that Daenerys has been mentioned to have been 14 years old in both 298 AC and in 299 AC, eliminating 283 AC as Daenerys's possible birth year, leaving only the option 284 AC.


Daenerys was thus born in 284 AC.

Daeron Targaryen (son of Aegon V)

Birth

Daeron was 9 years old when he was betrothed to Olenna Redwyne in 237 AC. He was 18 years old in 246 AC, when he broke the betrothal.[9] On both occasions, rule #3 applies, placing Daerons birth in 228 AC.

Daeron Targaryen (son of Aerys II)

Death

Daeron was born in 269 AC.[13] He lived for only half a year,[13] placing his death in either 269 AC, if he was born early in the year, or 270 AC, if he was born later in the year. No further specifications can be given.

Daeron Targaryen (son of Maekar I)

Birth

Daeron was 18 years old in 209 AC.[7] This gives him the following options:

  • 17 turning 18 in 209 AC, placing his birth in 191 AC
  • 18 turning 19 in 209 AC, placing his birth in 190 AC


No further indication can be given. Daeron was born in either 190 AC or 191 AC.

Death

Daeron's daughter Vaella was born in 222 AC.[20] That means that Daeron had been alive at least until 221 AC, as Vaella's conception occured 9 months before her birth, and as it is unknown when Vaella's birth occured in the year, it is possible that the year had turned between conception and birth. This makes 221 AC Daeron's first possible year of death.

Daeron predeceased his father Maekar, who died in 233 AC.[20][22] That means that Daeron could have died at late as 233 AC, only earlier in the year than his father.


No further specifications can be given. Daeron thus died in or between 221 AC and 233 AC.

Daeron I Targaryen

Birth

Daeron I Targaryen was 14 years old when he came into his throne in 157 AC.[116][22][117] Being 14 in 157 AC leaves the following possibilities:

  • 13 turning 14 in 157 AC, placing his birth in 143 AC
  • 14 turning 15 in 157 AC, placing his birth in 142 AC


It is also known that Daeron was 18 years old when he died in 161 AC, which gives the same possibilities as above.[74][22]

As it is the work of Maester Yandel which stated that Daeron was 14 when he ascended the throne in 157 AC,[117] rule #3 applies, eliminating the option of 142 AC, thereby placing Daeron's birth in 143 AC.

Daeron I was thus born in 143 AC.

Daeron Velaryon

Death

Daeron Velaryon died fighting in the Stepstones.[52] The battles in the Stepstones occured after Lord Unwin Peake became Hand of the King, which occured in 133 AC, but before Lord Alyn Velaryon was send out to fight Lord Dalton Greyjoy. Alyn Velaryon could not have been send out to sail against Greyjoy after 134 AC, as 134 AC is the year Dalton Greyjoy died.

Therefore, the fighting in the Stepstones occured in either 133 AC or 134 AC.


No further specifications can be given. Daeron thus died either in 133 AC or 134 AC.

Dalbridge

Birth

Dalbridge had been the squire for King Jaehaerys II.[118] Jaehaerys reigned from 259 AC until 262 AC.[22] This means that Dalbridge had been a squire to Jaehaerys in 262AC the latest. With the minimum age of 8 for squires,[35] Dalbridge had been at least 8 years old in 262 AC. This is the absolute youngest that Dalbridge could have been, showing that the absolute latest year in which he could have been born was 254 AC (8 years prior to 262 AC).


No further specifications can be given. Dalbridge was thus born in 254 AC or before.

Dalton Greyjoy

Birth

Dalton was 16 years old in 129 AC.[3][119] That gives him the following options:

  • 15 turning 16 in 129 AC, placing his birth in 113 AC
  • 16 turning 17 in 129 AC, placing his birth in 112 AC

As the sources for this information are the historical works of Maesters Yandel and Gyldyan, rule #3 applies, and the option 112 AC is eliminated. Dalton was thus born in 113 AC.

Damion Lannister

Birth

Damion Lannister was the son of Damon Lannister. Damon was born in either 244 AC or 245 AC (see Damon Lannister (son of Jason)). Damon would have been at least 13 years old at Damion's birth, showing that Damion's first possible year of birth is 257 AC.

Damion would have been at least 14 years old at the birth of his second born child, Lanna.[120] Lanna's last possible year of birth in 286 AC (see Lanna Lannister), showing that Damion was born no later than 272 AC.


No further specification can be given. Damion was thus born in or between 257 AC and 272 AC.

Damon Lannister (son of Jason)

Birth

Damon Lannister was the eldest trueborn child of Jason Lannister. According to semi-canon sources,[121] Jason was married to Damons mother, Alys Stackspear, at the age of 15. Jason was born in 229 AC (see Jason Lannister (son of Gerold)), and as the source for Jason's age at the time of marriage concerns a historical work, rule #3 applies, placing the wedding in 244 AC. As Alys was already pregnant with Jason's child at the time of their wedding,[121] Damon was born within 9 months of the wedding, thus either in 244 AC, the same year as the marriage, or 245 AC, the next year (if the conception had occurred less than 9 months before the turning of the year).


No further specification can be given

Damon Vypren

Birth

Damon is the younger brother of Elyana Vypren, so he is at least one year younger than her. Elyana was born in 264 AC the earliest (see Elyana Vypren), meaning that Damon was born in 265 AC the earliest.

In 299 AC, Damon is known to have been a knight.[6] Knighthood is generally received from the minimum age of 15,[96] meaning that Damon was at least 15 years old in 299 AC, placing his birth no later than 284 AC.

No further specifications can be given. Damon was thus born in or between 265 AC and 284 AC.

Dancer

Birth

Dancer, the horse, was 2 years old in 298 AC.[122] This gives Dancer two options:

  • 1 turning 2, placing her birth in 296 AC
  • 2 turning 3, placing her birth in 295 AC


No further specifications are known. Dancer was born in either 295 AC or 296 AC.

Danwell Frey

Birth

Danwell is younger than his brother Symond by at least one year. Symond was born the earliest in 251 AC (see Symond Frey), meaning that Danwells earliest possible year of birth is 252 AC.

Danwell is older than his younger brother Merrett by at least one year. Merrett was born in 262 AC (see Merrett Frey), meaning that Danwell cannot have been born any later than 261 AC.


No further specifications can be given. Danwell was thus born in or between 252 AC and 261 AC.

Daven Lannister

Birth

Daven Lannister tells in 300 AC that Kevan Lannister, born in 244 AC (see Kevan Lannister), is twice his age.[94] This would place Daven's birth roughly around 273 AC.


Note: The estimation for Daven's year of birth is rather roughly. He could easily be a few years older.

Davos Seaworth

Birth

Davos Seaworth is known to have been sailing for 40 years.[123] It is unknown whether or not this includes Davos's time as a sailor, or whether or not this is only referring to Davos's time as a captain. Though Davos ill not have been sailing since his birth, it is unknown how old he was when he started sailing. This means we can only give an absolute minimum for an indication of Davos's age, placing his birth absolutely no later than 260 AC, though it seems certain and logical that Davos was born at least a few years earlier.

Del

Birth

Del is around the age of Jon Snow, who is born in 283 AC (see Jon Snow).[124] That places his birth not exactly in 283 AC, but roughly around 283 AC.

Della Frey

Birth

Della is mentioned to be 3 years old both 299 AC and 300 AC.[34][29][30] Being 3 years old in both 299 AC and 300 AC means Della was 2 turning 3 in 299 AC, and 3 turning 4 in 300 AC, placing her birth in 296 AC.

Denyo Terys

Birth

Denyo Terys is known to have been 12 years old in 300 AC.[58] This gives the following options:

  • 11 turning 12 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 288 AC
  • 12 turning 13 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 287 AC


No further specifications can be given. Denyo was thus born in either 287 AC or 288 AC.

Denys Mallister

Birth

Denys Mallister has been Lord Commander of the Shadow Tower for 33 years in 300 AC.[125] It is also known that he was 22 years old when he was a champion, presumably at a tourney.[125] That would have occurred before Denys joined the Night's Watch, since a man who has joined the Night's Watch no longer takes part in tourneys. This would give Denys the minimum age of 55 in 300 AC, placing his birth as occurring no later than 245 AC.


Denys is described as old,[125] suggesting that he is in fact older than 55. No further specifications, however, can be given.


Note: It should be stated that the definition of "old" is different for every POV character. Hoster Tully, who is in his late 50ties, early 60ties, is described as old. Denys Mallisters minimum age of 55 would already fall in the same category.

Desmera Redwyne

Birth

Desmera Redwyne is 16 years old in 299 AC.[34][29] She is still 16 years old in 300 AC.[30][55] Being 16 in both 299 AC and 300 AC means that Desmera was born in 283 AC.

Desmond Grell

Birth

Desmond Grell is of an age with Hoster Tully, in 299 AC [126] who was born in or between 237 AC and 240 AC (see Hoster Tully). That would place Desmonds birth roughly in or between 237 AC and 240 AC as well.

Devan Seaworth

Birth

Devan Seaworth is known to have 11 years old in late 299 AC.[127] He is 12 years old in 300 AC.[128] This gives him the following options:

  • 10 turning 11 in 299 AC, and 11 turning 12 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 288 AC
  • 11 turning 12 in 299 AC, and 12 turning 13 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 287 AC


Devan Seaworth is known to be older than Edric Storm.[127] Edric was born in 287 AC (see Edric Storm). Since having been born in 288 AC would make Devan younger than Edric, Devan was thus born in 287 AC, the same year as Edric, only earlier in the year, making him older.


Devan was thus born in 287 AC.

Dickon Frey

Birth

Dickon has been mentioned to have been 5 years old in 299 AC[34][29] and in 300 AC.[30] Being 5 years old in both 299 AC and 300 AC means he was 4 turning 5 in 299 AC, and 5 turning 6 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 294 AC.


Dickon was thus born in 294 AC.

Dickon Tarly

Birth

Dickon is described by Brienne of Tarth to be 10 or 12 in 300 AC.[129] Since Brienne proclaims that she is bad in estimating ages,[130] her word cannot be trusted 100% (she estimated Podrick, of 12 years of age, to be 10,[130] for example).

Being either 10, 11 or 12 in 300 AC would give Dickon the following options:

  • 9 turning 10 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 290 AC
  • 10 turning 11 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 289 AC
  • 11 turning 12 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 288 AC
  • 12 turning 13 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 287 AC


With Samwell having been born in 283 AC (see Samwell Tarly), and with three sisters having been born in 3 years time in [131] between Dickon and Samwell, Dickon cannot have been born before 287 AC. That would make Dickon 12 turning 13 in 300 AC, when the observation of 10 or 12 is made. It is, however, not known whether the eldest of Dickons sisters was born the year after Samwell, or whether there were more years in between their births.


No further specifications can be given about Dickon. Dickon was born in or between 287 AC and 290 AC.


Note: seeing as how Dickon was present in King Renly's army in the first half of 299 AC, this seems to suggest that Dickon cannot have been born later (in 299 AC, Dickon would have been 11 turning 12), since it would make him younger than 12 in 299 AC, an age at which he would have no business being present in an army preparing for war.

Domeric Bolton

Birth

After spending 4 years as a page for Lady Barbrey Dustin, Domeric would spend 3 years in the Vale as a squire to Lord Redfort.[132] This shows that Domeric was fostered. Fostering usually ends at the age of 16, when the boy becomes a man grown by law.[133] When Domeric returned home, after having enjoyed spending time with Lord Redfort sons, he learned he had a bastard brother. Domeric sought out his bastard brother, and died shortly thereafter.[132] Domeric died in 297 AC (see below, under "death"). If Domeric was 16 years old at the time of his death (and his death thus occured shortly after his return from the Vale), Domeric would have been born in 281 AC.

Of course, it cannot be stated with certainty that Domeric died within a year of returning to the Dreadfort, which would place his return in an earlier year, and thus also his birth. It also cannt be stated with certainty that Domerics fostering ended at the age of 16. Though Domeric was said to have the makings of a tourney knight, Domeric is not mentioned to have received his knighthood prior to leaving the Vale. There are, after all, also highborns who end their time as a squire at the age of 18.[134] Should Domeric have been 18 years old when he returned to the Dreadfort, and he died shortly thereafter, his birth would have occured in 279 AC


Due to the uncertainty that arises with Domeric's birth, we can thus only conclude that it is most likely that he was born roughly around or between 279 AC and 281 AC.


In any case, Domeric had been fostered by Lady Barbrey Dustin.[132] As Lady Barbrey has been Barbrey Ryswell until her marriage, Domerics fostering thus took place after Barbreys marriage to Lord Dustin. Lady Barbrey got married to Lord Dustin in 282 AC, and thus, technically, this is the first year where Domeric could have been fostered. With fosterings usually ending at the age of 16, and Domerics fostering in total having lasted 7 years, 4 years of which were spend at Lady Barbrey's, Domeric would have been 9 years old at the oldest when his fostering with Lady Barbrey started.

With Domeric's age at 9 at the maximum in 282 AC, Domeric cannot have been born before 273 AC.

However, Domeric returned from the Vale wanting a brother. It seems highly unlikely that between Domeric returning to the Dreadfort and Domerics death, 8 years passed, bringing the timeframe back to 279 AC-281 AC, roughly.

Death

In 299 AC, Domeric is said to have died "2 years ago".[75] This places Domerics death in 297 AC

Donal Noye

Birth

Donal Noye has been mentioned to have been well past 30 when he had taken a blow from an axe during the Siege of Storm's End, during Robert's Rebellion.[33] Robert's Rebellion ended in 283 AC.[55] “Well past 30” suggests that Donal had turned 30 several years before, giving him a minimal age of about 33 during the Siege. With certainty it can be said that Donal was younger than 40 during the Siege. Combining this info, Donal's age during the Siege can be place as having been between 31 and 39, placing his birth in or between 244 AC and 252 AC.

Donella Manderly (Donella Hornwood)

Birth

Donella Hornwood says she is past her childbearing years in 299 AC.[75] This indicates that she is either about 50 years old, or older, placing her birth no later than ~249 AC.

No further specifications can be given. Donella was thus born in or before ~249 AC

Note: that Donella's son was betrothed[38], might indicate that he was not yet that old. However, since male heirs of a House can marry when they are in their late twenties, early thirties (i.e. Edmure Tully), during peace times, it seems possible that Donella's birth took place not that far awar from 249 AC.

Donnel Haigh

Birth

Donnel was born at least one year after his older brother Harys. Harys was born the earliest in 254 AC (see Harys Haigh), so Donnel was born no earlier than 1 year later, in 255 AC.

Donnel was born at least one year before his younger brother Alyn. Alyn was born no later than 291 AC (see Alyn Haigh), meaning that Donnel was born no later than 1 year before that, making Donnels last possible year of birth 290 AC.

Donnel, however, is a knight, in 299 AC,[6] meaning that he is at least 15 years old by then. Sandor Clegane mentions in 300 AC how he has ridden and won against Donnel many times,[135] suggesting that Donnel has been a knight for several years already. Sandor Clegane also states how he had almost killed Donnel in a melee. There are no known melee's that Sandor took place in in 299 AC or in 298 AC, meaning that this melee would have taken place in 297 AC the earliest. With Donnel having been at least 15 years old in 297 AC at the latest, puts his last possible year of birth in 282 AC.


Donnel was thus born in or between 255 AC and 282 AC.

Donnel Waynwood

Birth

Ser Donnel Waynwood is mentioned to be 20 years old in 298 AC.[97] For Donnel, that gives two options:

  • 19 turning 20 in 298 AC, placing his birth in 278 AC
  • 20 turning 21 in 298 AC, placing his birth in 277 AC


No further specifications can be given about Donnel. He was born in either 277 AC or 278 AC.

Dontos Hollard

Birth

Dontos Hollard has been described as being “a knight of forty years” in 300 AC.[91] This places Dontos's age in 300 AC at roughly 40 years, placing his age between 37 and 43.


Dontos has been described as having been a young boy during the Defiance at Duskendale.[130] The Defiance at Duskendale took place in 277 AC.[13] With Dontos still being named a “young boy” during this event, he would most likely not yet have reached the age of 16 yet (which is adulthood).

For Dontos, as per the descriptions of his age, the following options exist:

  • 36 turning 37 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 263 AC
  • 37 turning 38 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 262 AC
  • 38 turning 39 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 261 AC
  • 39 turning 40 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 260 AC
  • 40 turning 41 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 259 AC
  • 41 turning 42 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 258 AC
  • 42 turning 43 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 257 AC
  • 43 turning 44 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 256 AC

This gives the years 256 AC up to 263 AC as options for Dontos's birth.


The Defiance at Duskendale gives Dontos the following maxima:

  • Being 15 turning 16 in 277 AC, placing his birth no earlier than 261 AC

Comparing this possibility to the possibilities gained by looking at Dontos's known age in 300 AC, the years of 256 AC, 257 AC, 258 AC, 259 AC and 260 AC are eliminated.


This shows that Dontos was born in or between 261 AC and 263 AC.


Note: Being described as a “boy” suggests an age younger than 16 years, suggesting that Dontos's actual birth was closer to 263 AC than to 261 AC. Having been born in 263 AC (Dontos's youngest option) would have made him 13 years old in 276 AC, the first possible option, and one of the most likey options, for the Defiance.

Doran Martell

Birth

Doran Martell is 52 years old in 300 AC. [48] This gives Doran the following options:

  • 51 turning 52 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 248 AC
  • 52 turning 53 in 300 AC, placing his birth in 247 AC


No further specifications can be given. Doran was thus born in either 247 AC or 248 AC.

Dorea Sand

Birth

Dorea Sand is described as being 8 years old in 300 AC.[108] That leaves two options for Dorea:

  • 7 turning 8 in 300 AC, placing her birth in 292 AC
  • 8 turning 9 in 300 AC, placing her birth in 291 AC


No further specifications can be given. Dorea was thus born in either 291 AC or 292 AC.

Drazenko Rogare

Death

Drazenko Rogare and his older brother, Lysandro, died within a day of one another, which began the fall of the Rogares, both in the Seven Kingdoms, and in Lys.[136] Lysandro's heir, Lysaro, began spending vast sums in an attempt to persue power. He did so, while his siblings became involved in plots to control the Iron Throne.[136] These plots to control the Iron Throne occurred between 134 AC and 136 AC.[52] As Lysaro was already in power at this point, Lysandro was already dead. Therefore, by 134 AC at the latest, Drazenko had already died.

Drazenko was the Prince Consort of Dorne, indicating that he was alive when Aliandra Martell became the Princess of Dorne. Aliandra's father, Prince Qoren Martell, is known to have still been alive in 129 AC.[137] Thus, in 129 AC, Drazenko was still alive.


No further specifications can be given. Drazenko died in or between 129 AC and 134 AC.

Drogo

Birth

Drogo is mentioned to have been no more than 30 years old when meeting Daenerys Targaryen, in either 297 AC or 298 AC.[138] Being 30 years old in 298 AC places Drogo's birth no later than 267 AC (being 30 turning 31 in 298 AC, with Drogo's nameday occurring after meeting Daenerys).

Drogo was thus born in 267 AC, roughly.

Duncan Targaryen

Birth

Duncan's parents, Aegon V Targaryen and Betha Blackwood, were married in 220 AC.[9] This means that Duncan's first possible year of birth is that same year, 220 AC. Duncan would be at least one year older than his brother, Jaehaerys, who was born in 225 AC (see Jaehaerys II Targaryen), meaning that Duncan was born no later than 224 AC.

No further specifications can be given. Duncan was thus born in or between 220 AC and 224 AC.

Duncan the Tall

Birth

Duncan was 16 or 17 years old in 209 AC.[7] He had squired for Ser Arlan of Pennytree since the age of 5 or 6. When he was 3 or 4 years old, the Redgrass Field, in 196 AC, was being fought.[2] He is 18 or 19 years old in 211 AC.[2] Being 16 or 17 years old in 209 AC gives the following options:

  • 15 turning 16, placing his birth in 193 AC
  • 16 turning 17, placing his birth in 192 AC
  • 17 turning 18, placing his birth in 191 AC

The same possibilities will be achieved with being 18 or 19 in 211 AC, and with being 3 or 4 in 196 AC.

Further, it is known that Duncan was born "some time around 192 AC".[139]


No further specifications can be given. Duncan the Tall was thus born in either 191 AC, 192 AC or 193 AC.

Dunstan Drumm

Birth

Dunstan Drumm is mentioned to be younger than Erik Ironmaker.[140] Since Erik was born in either 211 AC or 212 AC (see Erik Ironmaker), Dustan will have been born in 212 AC or later.

Duram Bar Emmon

Birth

Duram Bar Emmon was 14 years old in early 299 AC.[106] He was 15 in late 299 AC,[141] between the Battle of the Blackwater and Joffrey’s wedding on the first day of 300 AC. He was also 15 years old in 300 AC.[30] Being both 14 and 15 in 299 AC means Bar was 14 turning 15 in 299 AC, placing his birth in 284 AC.

Dyanna Dayne

Death

Dyanna Dayne is mentioned to have died by the time the Ashford Tourney takes place in 209 AC.[7] This makes it possible that Dyanna had died earlier that same year, making 209 AC the last possible year of her death.

Dyanna had given birth to six children in total. Her youngest child, Rhae, was born no earlier than 201 AC (see Rhae Targaryen). This means that Dyanna lived at least long enough to give birth to Rhae, making her first possible year of death 201 AC.

No further specifications can be given. Dyanna thus died in or between 201 AC and 209 AC.
