History

Lord Lorent Grandison served in the regency of Aegon III; Mushroom observed that he loved to sleep.[5]

Ser Harlan Grandison was a knight in the Kingsguard of Aerys II Targaryen. After dying in his sleep, Harlan was replaced in the White Swords by Ser Jaime Lannister.[2]

Along with Lord Cafferen, Lord Grandison was captured by Lord Robert Baratheon at the battles at Summerhall during Robert's Rebellion. Robert then managed to turn the two Targaryen loyalists into allies. Lord Grandison was wounded at the Battle of the Trident fighting for Robert, and died of his wounds a year later.[6]

The elderly Lord Hugh Grandison was among the possible matches offered to Princess Arianne Martell. When he traveled to Dorne, however, he fell asleep between courses at the welcoming feast.[7]
