Danwell Frey
Ser Danwell Frey is one of Lord Walder Frey's many children, his eighth son and the third born to his marriage with Amarei Crakehall. He is married to Wynafrei Whent, though the union has produced no children who survived birth.
A soldier in the War of the Five Kings, he served first in Robb Stark's army and later under Roose Bolton, and his name is tied to the night of the Red Wedding.
