Boremund Baratheon was the Lord of Storm's End and the head of House Baratheon during the reign of kings Jaehaerys I and Viserys I Targaryen.[1] He was the half-brother of King Jaehaerys I.[5]

Appearance and Character

According to Septon Eustace, Boremund was like stone, "hard and strong and unmoving".[6] He was belligerent.[7] At eight-and-twenty, he was the image of his father, brawny and powerful, with a booming laugh, a great black beard, and a mane of thick black hair.[1]

History

Boremund was the eldest son of Lord Rogar Baratheon and Dowager Queen Alyssa Velaryon. He had a younger sister, Jocelyn.[5]

In 80 AC, Lord Boremund was still unmarried, and thus was raised as a potential suitor for Princess Daella Targaryen by Queen Alysanne. He was the most imposing candidate, but the princess eventually married Lord Rodrik Arryn.[1]

As the Lord of Storm's End, Boremund was a staunch supporter of the claims of Princess Rhaenys Targaryen, his sister's daughter, and Rhaenys's son, Ser Laenor Velaryon, at the Great Council of 101 AC.[8] Boremund and Rhaenys were always steadfast friends.[7]

Boremund had at least one son, Borros, who gave him four granddaughters and one grandson.[7][9]

  1. Parentage unproven, but widely accepted as fact by some maesters, as well as members of House Targaryen and House Baratheon itself.
  2. Uncertain, may be Davos Baratheon.
  3. The canon status of the character is unclear. See: Westeros.org: Family trees and successions – Comment by Ran (December 20, 2018).
