Hosteen Frey by Cloudninja9©

Ser Hosteen Frey is a knight of House Frey, the sixth son of Lord Walder Frey, the first one born of his third wife, Amarei Crakehall. He is married to Bellena Hawick.[2] Hosteen is a seasoned soldier and the fiercest fighter of Walder's brood.

Appearance and Character

Hosteen is a husky man with a square face.[3] He is brawny, on account of his Crakehall ancestry, with a jut of jaw and arms thick with muscle. He is compared to a bull, slow to anger but implacable when aroused.[4] While he favors his mother's family and is considered the strongest of all the Freys, [3] Stannis Baratheon judges him to be dim and stupid.[5]

History

Ser Hosteen participated in the tourney at Lannisport, which was held to celebrate King Robert I Baratheon's victory over Greyjoy's Rebellion. He was defeated by the eventual champion, Ser Jorah Mormont.[6] Hosteen rode in the tourney on Prince Joffrey's name day in 298 AC, but he was unhorsed by Ser Loras Tyrell.[7]

Recent Events

Hosteen attends the Hand's tourney in King's Landing with five of his brothers.[8] He is at the Twins when Catelyn Stark informs her son, Robb, of the alliance negotiated with Lord Walder Frey.[7]

Ser Jared Frey, Symond Frey and Rhaegar Frey went to White Harbor to treat with Wyman and have not been seen since, to which Hosteen suspects foul play. When Little Walder Frey is found dead at the First Keep, Hosteen accuses Lord Manderly, who denies the charge while insulting House Frey. This enrages Hosteen, who attacks Wyman and would have killed him if not for the intervention of White Harbor knights.[14]
