Ryger Rivers is a bastard son of Walder Frey, Lord of the Crossing.

History

Ryger's mother was a peasant who milked goats before Lord Walder got her pregnant with Ryger.[1]

Recent Events

A Game of Thrones

When Catelyn Stark comes to discuss terms with Lord Walder Frey over the crossing of the northern army at the Twins, he is rude to her. Ryger attempts to chastise his father for his discourtesy. Ryger is rudely told off, however.[1]

Quotes

Ryger: This is no way to speak in front of our noble guest, Father.
Walder: Now my bastards presume to teach me courtesy. I'll speak any way I like, damn you. I've had three kings to guest in my life, and queens as well, do you think I require lessons from the likes of you, Ryger? Your mother was milking goats the first time I gave her my seed.[1]
