Arwood Harlton is the Lord of Castlewood and head of House Harlton. He has a niece, Marianne Harlton.
History
Arwood became the Lord of Castlewood during Robert's Rebellion, after his older brother died fighting for Aerys II Targaryen. Driven by revenge, he founded a secret society called the Brotherhood of Shadows, which sought to restore the Targaryen dynasty to the Iron Throne. Upon learning of the Mad King's bastard daughter Jeyne Greystone, he arranged for her to become pregnant by King Robert, intending to place the half-Targaryen half-Baratheon child on the throne. This plan was almost thwarted by Arwood's friend, Raynald Sarwyck, whom he then poisoned. He later plotted to assassinate Queen Cersei and cause a civil war. His plans, however, were stopped by Alester Sarwyck, Mors Westford, and Valarr Hill. He was killed in the Siege of Castlewood.[1]
