Editing Thoros (section)

==History==
Thoros was born in the Free City of [[Myr]], the youngest of eight children, and he was given to a [[red temple]] of R'hllor at a young age. He earned his priesthood but was never overly pious due to his tastes for fighting, drinking, and women. Thoros was sent to [[King's Landing]] in hopes he could convert the fire-obsessed King [[Aerys II Targaryen]], but he was unsuccessful and started to question his own faith.{{Ref|ASOS|43}}

During [[Robert's Rebellion]], Thoros was present{{Ref|ASOS|34}} when the corpses of [[Aegon Targaryen (son of Rhaegar)|Aegon]] and [[Rhaenys Targaryen (daughter of Rhaegar)|Rhaenys Targaryen]], clothed in [[House Lannister guards|red cloaks]] to hide their wounds, were presented by Lord [[Tywin Lannister]] to Lord [[Robert I Baratheon|Robert Baratheon]] before the [[Iron Throne]].{{Ref|AGOT|45}} Thoros has never forgotten Ser [[Gregor Clegane]]'s brutality during the [[Sack of King's Landing]].{{Ref|ASOS|34}}

Thoros became a frequent drinking companion of the new king, Robert I.{{Ref|ASOS|43}} During [[Greyjoy's Rebellion]], Thoros earned recognition for being the first over the wall at [[siege of Pyke|Pyke]].{{Ref|AGOT|29}}

Thoros is a frequent [[tourney]] mêlée champion, using cheap swords set aflame with [[wildfire]] to spook the other combatants' horses.{{Ref|AGOT|30}} Three times Thoros defeated [[Sandor Clegane]] in the mêlées.{{Ref|ASOS|34}} At the [[tourney on Prince Joffrey's name day]], Thoros was defeated by Lord [[Yohn Royce]] with a common mace after the fire of his sword guttered out.{{Ref|ACOK|10}} [[Tobho Mott]], displeased with the burning of swords, overcharges Thoros for replacements,{{Ref|ASOS|22}}{{Ref|ASOS|43}} but Robert is glad to provide for his friend.{{Ref|ACOK|20}}
