Martyn Rivers
On this tab
Martyn Rivers is a bastard son of Lord Walder Frey, master of the Twins. He carries the surname Rivers, given to bastards born in the riverlands, and so stands apart from his father's enormous brood of trueborn children.
He is one of the Freys whose path crosses that of King Robb Stark during the war Robb wages for the north, first at the Twins and later at Riverrun.
House Frey
Early Life
Martyn is described as ruddy-faced, unlike other members of his house. He attends the Tourney of the Hand together with five other kinsmen of House Frey.
He is at the Twins when King Robb Stark's host arrives at his father's seat.
