'''Delena Florent''' is a noblewoman of [[House Florent]], niece to Lord [[Alester Florent]]. She is the mother of [[Edric Storm]], one of the [[bastard]]s of King [[Robert Baratheon]]. She is married to Ser [[Hosman Norcross]], and has two children by him, [[Alester Norcross|Alester]] and [[Renly Norcross|Renly]].

==Appearance==
Since her bastard son, [[Edric Storm]], has the large ears common to the [[House Florent|Florents]],{{Ref|ACOK|10}} Delena presumably shares this physical characteristic.

==History==
Delena was a [[bedmaid]] for her cousin, [[Selyse Florent]], and attended [[wedding of Stannis Baratheon and Selyse Florent|her wedding]] to Lord [[Stannis Baratheon]]. During the wedding feast, while the bride and groom were still dancing, Stannis's brother, King [[Robert I Baratheon]], carried Delena upstairs to the bedroom of the newlyweds and broke in the wedding bed.{{ref|AGOT|35}} Robert later told Stannis he had not recognized the bedchamber because he was drunk, and had not meant to cause shame.{{ref|ASOS|54}} However, Stannis felt his brother's actions were an insult to [[House Florent]].{{ref|AGOT|35}} 

The coupling eventually led to the birth of [[Edric Storm]]. Because Delena had been a [[maiden]] of noble birth when Robert slept with her, he had to acknowledge the child as his [[bastard]].{{Ref|AGOT|35}}{{Ref|ACOK|10}}  Stannis had the infant sent to [[Storm's End]] to be [[fostered]] by his younger brother, Lord [[Renly Baratheon]].{{ref|AGOT|35}}

Lord [[Tywin Lannister]] once offered to betroth his son [[Tyrion Lannister|Tyrion]] to Delena, but her father, Ser [[Colin Florent]], refused, and instead married her to one of his [[household knight]]s, Ser [[Hosman Norcross]].{{Ref|ASOS|19}}

==Quotes==
{{quote|The mother was a [[House Florent|Florent]], niece to the Lady [[Selyse Florent|Selyse]], one of her [[bedmaid]]s. [[Renly Baratheon|Renly]] says that [[Robert I Baratheon|Robert]] carried the girl upstairs during [[wedding of Stannis Baratheon and Selyse Florent|the feast]], and broke in the wedding bed while [[Stannis Baratheon|Stannis]] and his bride were still dancing. Lord Stannis seemed to think that was a blot on the honor of his wife's House, so when the boy was born, he shipped him off to Renly.{{ref|AGOT|35}}|[[Petyr Baelish]] to [[Eddard Stark]]}}

{{Quote|[[Robert I Baratheon|Robert]] and Delena defiled [[wedding of Stannis Baratheon and Selyse Florent|our bed]] and laid a curse upon our union. [[Edric Storm|This boy]] is the foul fruit of their fornications. Lift his shadow from my womb and I will bear you many trueborn sons, I know it. He is only one boy, born of your brother's lust and my cousin's shame.{{Ref|ASOS|54}}|[[Selyse Florent]] to [[Stannis Baratheon]]}}
