Appearance
As her bastard son, Edric, has the large ears common to the Florents,[2] Delena presumably shares this physical characteristic.
History
During the wedding of Lord Stannis Baratheon and Lady Selyse Florent, King Robert I Baratheon carried Delena, who was one of Selyse's bedmaids, upstairs to the bedroom of Lord Stannis and Lady Selyse and broke in the wedding bed. This coupling eventually led to the birth of Edric Storm. Because Delena had been a maiden of noble birth when Robert slept with her, he had to acknowledge the child as his bastard.[3][2]
Lord Tywin Lannister once offered to betroth his son Tyrion to Delena, though her father refused and married her to one of his household knights, Ser Hosman Norcross, instead.[4]
