Willas Tyrell is the eldest son and heir of Lord Mace Tyrell and Lady Alerie Hightower. Though crippled with a bad leg, he is often noted as a studious, educated, and kind, and is renowned for breeding the finest hawks, hounds, and horses in the Seven Kingdoms.[1][2]

History

Willas was crippled as a youth when his knee was injured beyond saving while jousting with Oberyn Martell. Though the incident fanned the flames of the considerable enmity between Houses Tyrell and Martell, Willas bore Oberyn no personal ill will and the two long remained in correspondence, sharing a passion for horseflesh.[3] He gave his younger brother Garlan his nickname "The Gallant".[4] Willas despite his twisted leg is a much more capable leader then his father.

Recent Events

A Storm of Swords

Olenna Redwyne plots to have Sansa Stark married to Willas.[5] Sansa readily accepts the offer, but it is foiled when Tywin Lannister learns of the plot from Petyr Baelish and hastily marries Sansa to his son Tyrion.[6] Tywin offers Cersei Lannister to be married to Willas, but the Tyrells refuse the offer.[7]

A Feast for Crows

After the Battle of the Shield Islands, Willas reportedly sent messengers to Lord Leyton Hightower ordering him to strengthen his defences in Oldtown.[8] Willas also guessed (correctly) that the Ironborn did not follow the coast when attacking the shields so the ambush would take the lords of the shields off guard.
