Ser Davos Blackwood, of House Blackwood of Raventree Hall and of the ancient blood of the Riverlands, of Rivermen culture, nephew or kinsman of Lord Samwell Blackwood and scion of a house sworn to House Tully, stood as a fervent champion of the Blacks in the Dance of the Dragons, his parentage lost in time though he bore the Blackwood name with solemn pride, his personal arms borne by his house’s weirwood and raven sigil, he wielded the steel of a knight in the quarrel at the Burning Mill, his allegiance lay with Princess Rhaenyra’s cause, his purpose to defend his inheritance and to spark the fires of retribution for his slain kin, and he bore no dragon, yet his steel and will drew battle lines across the rivers of the realm.
