===Targaryen Era=== [[File:Unwin Peake.jpg|thumb|200px|thumb|[[Unwin Peake]] with [[Orphan-Maker]], by Douglas Wheatley in ''[[Fire & Blood]]'']] Lord [[Armen Peake]] and his sons perished upon the [[Field of Fire]]. Unlike the station they had enjoyed under the Gardener kings, they had no blood connection to the new Lords of [[Highgarden]], [[House Tyrell]], and thus had no reason to be favored.{{Ref|FAB|Under the Regents - War and Peace and Cattle Shows}} Lord [[Uther Peake]] ruled during the reign of King [[Jaehaerys I Targaryen]] and married one of Queen [[Alysanne Targaryen|Alysanne's]] companions, Lady [[Prunella Celtigar]].{{Ref|FAB|Jaehaerys and Alysanne - Their Triumphs and Tragedies}} At the [[Great Council of 101 AC]], Lord [[Lord Peake (father of Unwin)|Peake]] voted for Prince [[Viserys I Targaryen|Viserys Targaryen]].{{Ref|FAB|Under the Regents - War and Peace and Cattle Shows}} During the [[Dance of the Dragons]], Lord [[Unwin Peake]] supported the [[greens]]. He took command of the green army from the Reach after the [[Second Battle of Tumbleton]] and led its retreat.{{Ref|FAB|The Dying of the Dragons - Rhaenyra Overthrown}} After the death of Lord [[Corlys Velaryon]], Lord Unwin was given a position as one of King [[Aegon III Targaryen]]'s [[Regency of Aegon III|regents]]. He eventually became [[Protector of the Realm]] and [[Hand of the King]], which he later resigned when the king would not marry his daughter, [[Myrielle Peake]].{{Ref|TWOIAF|The Targaryen Kings: Aegon III}}{{Ref|FAB|Under the Regents - War and Peace and Cattle Shows}} Lord [[Gormon Peake]] was a fierce supporter of [[Daemon I Blackfyre]] and was considered one of the finest [[knight]]s during the reign of King [[Daeron II Targaryen]]. After the Peakes chose the side of [[House Blackfyre]] in the failed [[First Blackfyre Rebellion]], they had two of their castles stripped from them, leaving them only Starpike.{{Ref|TMK}} Gormon was a part of [[Daemon II Blackfyre]]'s entourage at the [[Whitewalls]] [[Wedding tourney at Whitewalls|wedding tourney]] in {{Date|212}}, and was subsequently executed for treason.{{Ref|TSS}}{{Ref|TMK}} The Peakes rose against the [[Iron Throne]] in the [[Peake Uprising]] in {{Date|233}}. King [[Maekar I Targaryen]]'s helm was crushed by a rock hurled from the battlements of Starpike. Lord [[Robert Reyne]] and Ser [[Tywald Lannister]] were also killed in the [[Storming of Starpike]].{{Ref|TWOIAF|The Westerlands: House Lannister Under the Dragons}} In the aftermath of Starpike, [[Roger Reyne]], the new [[Lord of Castamere]] took vengeance for his father Robert's death by slaughtering seven captive Peakes before Prince [[Aegon V Targaryen|Aegon Targaryen]] prevented him from harming others.<ref name=sample>''[[The World of Ice & Fire]]'': The Westerlands (unabridged).
