Erryk is one of the two personal guards of Olenna Tyrell, the dowager Lady of Highgarden. He is the twin of Arryk, her other guard. Lady Olenna cannot tell them apart, so she calls them Left and Right.[1]

Appearance and Character

Erryk is seven feet tall, well muscled, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist. He has a strong jaw, blue eyes and a thick red mustache. Erryk wears a gilded halfhelm and a green cloak edged in gold satin, with the golden rose of Highgarden sewn on his chest. He is practically indistinguishable from his twin, Arryk.[1]

It is likely that Erryk is named after Ser Erryk Cargyll, the legendary Kingsguard and twin of Ser Arryk Cargyll.
