House Vance of Atranta is one of the two great branches of House Vance in the Riverlands, the other being House Vance from Wayfarer's Rest.

Neither their arms or their motto appear on the books. In noncanon material the author has blazoned the arms of this branch of House Branch as quartered, a green dragon on white and a white tower on black.

The House Vance from Atranta at the end of the third century

The known Vances from the Atranta branch during the timespan of the events described on A Song of Ice and Fire are:

  • Lord Norbert Vance: Lord of Atranta. A blind old man.
    • Ser Ronald Vance: His firstson and heir. Called "the bad".
    • Ser Hugo Vance: His secondborn
    • Ser Ellery Vance: His thirdborn.
    • Ser Kirth Vance: His fourthborn
    • Maester Jon: His fifthborn.

There is also a knight named Ser Dafyn Vance coming from an unknown branch of house Vance. He married Maegelle Frey, daughter of Stevron Frey, and is father to three children.
