==History== [[File:Aegon Death.png|400px|thumb|Gregor kills Prince [[Aegon Targaryen (son of Rhaegar)|Aegon]] in front of Princess [[Elia Martell]], from ''[[Game of Thrones]]'' Blu-ray]] As a young boy, eleven or twelve years old, Gregor caused his brother [[Sandor Clegane|Sandor]]'s facial scars by holding the younger boy's face to a hot brazier as punishment for playing with a toy he had discarded. Their father spread the story that the injuries were caused by bedding that had caught fire.{{Ref|AGOT|29}} Four years later, Gregor was knighted by Prince [[Rhaegar Targaryen]],{{Ref|AGOT|29}} presumably prior to the [[tourney of Harrenhal]].<ref>[[So Spake Martin]]: [http://www.westeros.org/Citadel/SSM/Entry/Various_questions_concerning_Tywin_Oberyn_Gregor_the_North_and_Sansa Various questions concerning Tywin, Oberyn, Gregor, the North, and Sansa], April 15, 2008</ref> Gregor is a suspected [[Kinslaying|kinslayer]]; there are rumors that Gregor killed his father, sister, and his first two wives. [[Clegane's Keep|His keep]] is said to be a grim place where servants vanish unaccountably and even the dogs are afraid to enter the halls. On the day that Gregor came into his inheritance, Sandor entered the service of [[House Lannister]], never to return.{{Ref|AGOT|30}} At the age of seventeen, Gregor participated in the [[Sack of King's Landing]] during [[Robert's Rebellion]]. He and Ser [[Amory Lorch]] scaled [[Maegor's Holdfast]] when the Lannister troops reached the [[Red Keep]]. Gregor entered the nursery of the infant Prince [[Aegon Targaryen (son of Rhaegar)|Aegon]], son of Prince Rhaegar, and killed the baby present by dashing the boy's head against a wall. Then he raped and murdered Aegon's mother, Princess [[Elia Martell|Elia]], supposedly with the boy's blood and brains still on his hands.{{Ref|AGOT|30}}{{Ref|ACOK|17}}{{Ref|ASOS|53}} The identities of the two murderers have not been publicly confirmed in the recorded history,{{ref|TWOIAF| The Fall of the Dragons: The End}} although Gregor's involvement is common knowledge at [[Casterly Rock]].{{ref|ACOK|17}} Gregor participated in the suppression of [[Greyjoy's Rebellion]].{{ref|AGOT|30}}
