About this deal

Neither Robb Stark of the North nor Balon Greyjoy of the Iron Islands appoint their own "Hand of the King" because they are each fighting to secede their respective regions and set them up as independent kingdoms, both of which had no traditional office of a "Hand of the King" as it is particular to the government of the Iron Throne itself. During the Kingsmoot that follows Balon Greyjoy's death, Asha Greyjoy tells her uncle Victarion that she will support him as king if he names her his Hand, but he rejects her offer. Tywin serves as Hand to Joffrey and, after Joffrey's death, to King Tommen I Baratheon, [46] until he is murdered in the Tower of the Hand by Tyrion. [47] This information has thus far been released in a sample chapter for The Winds of Winter, and might therefore not be in finalized form. Keep in mind that the content as described below is still subject to change.

Hand of the King Pin — The Noble Collection UK

The events of the story are set in motion by the death of the Hand of the King, Lord Jon Arryn, apparently from natural causes. King Robert Baratheon travels to Winterfell and asks Lord Eddard Stark to replace Jon. Eddard is doubtful, not wishing to travel far from his homeland and his family, but eventually agrees when an anonymous message claims that Jon Arryn was murdered. Eddard decides to agree to the King's offer so he can investigate and determine the truth of what has happened and if it poses a danger to Robert or the realm. Lord Tywin Lannister, the King's Hand for twenty years, resigned after King Aerys snubbed the idea of a marriage between his son Rhaegar and Tywin's daughter Cersei. Tywin's resignation caused Aerys to spiral even further into the heights of paranoia and insanity. Following Tywin's resignation, Aerys appointed four new Hands in rapid succession, the last three within the space of a year during Robert's Rebellion. Davos continues as Hand of the King for Stannis, [59] [60] while Axell calls himself the Queen's Hand for Stannis's wife, Selyse Florent. [61] Lord Eddard Stark, for King Robert Baratheon. Served briefly during the final months of Robert's reign.

In the rechristened Bay of Dragons, Daenerys appoints Tyrion as her official Hand of the Queen, in recognition of his loyalty and good governance of Meereen in her absence. Daenerys presents Tyrion with a replica of the Hand brooch, apologizing that it might not be accurate as she'd never seen the original herself (it appears to be made of silver or iron instead of gold or bronze). Tyrion proudly wears the brooch as Daenerys at last launches her invasion of Westeros. [32] Game of Thrones: Season 7 Lord Jon Arryn, for King Robert.

[56] Asha and Victarion each stand in the kingsmoot, both losing to Euron Greyjoy.
