Will Cole is a sellsword in service to the Golden Company. As a serjeant, he is a high-ranking officer.[1]
Appearance
He wears his worldly wealth upon his person and a lord’s ransom in golden arms rings.[2]
History
Will is a Westerosi exile. His surname Cole is of a house that was once prominent in the histories of the Seven Kingdoms.[2] House Cole served as stewards to House Dondarrion in the years preceding the Dance of the Dragons, and their most prominent member was Ser Criston Cole,[3] Lord Commander of the Kingsguard under Viserys I Targaryen and Aegon II Targaryen.[4] By the present day, their arms are obscure,[5] and they may be extinct.[6] Will may or may not belong to House Cole, as in the free companies a man can call himself whatever he chooses, and not all are genuine. He might be related to another serjeant in the company, Dick Cole.[2]
Recent Events

Will is present during Jon Connington’s rendezvous with the Golden Company three miles south of Volon Therys.[2]
Like the rest of the company, he swears his allegiance to Aegon Targaryen before they invade Westeros.
