He is tall and very muscular (also like his father). He has his father's blue eyes and thick black hair. She slays Rorge, only to be overpowered by Biter, and is eventually saved by Gendry, who kills Biter with a spear through the neck. She is shocked by his striking resemblence to Renly Baratheon (King Robert's younger brother), but before the two can have words she is attacked by Rorge and Biter. While on a quest to find Sansa Stark, Brienne encounters Gendry working as a smith at the Crossroads Inn. Despite Arya's attempt to get him to flee with her, Gendry joins the Brotherhood and is knighted by Ser Beric Dondarrion himself, becoming Ser Gendry of the Hollow Hill. Gendry is impressed with the Brotherhood's ideals, since they fight to protect the common folk who cannot defend themselves in times of war. When travelling towards Riverrun, the home of Arya's mother's family the Tulleys, the trio are ambushed and captured by the Brotherhood Without Banners. Arya begins to form a plan to escape the castle, and convinces Gendry and fellow prisoner Hotpie to come with her. ![]() The recruits are eventually captured by the Mountain's men, who take them to Harrenhal, where Gendry works as a smith. Gendry and Arya become friends, after Gendry deduces that she's a girl, and a highborn one at that. Yoren refuses, and with the help of his recruits manage to drive the men away. Queen Cersei's men hunt Yoren down however, and demand that he turn Gendry over. Gendry travels North in a retinue with several other prisoners, among them a disguised Arya Stark Ned Stark's daughter. Unbeknownst to Gendry, this is done to protect him from Queen Cersei, who is in the process of having all of Robert's bastards murdered. Gendry offered the same answers he had given the previous Hand, and Lord Stark went on his way.Īfter Eddard Stark's execution, Gendry is taken by Yoren to join the Night's Watch. Like Jon Arryn, Lord Stark inquired into Gendry's lineage. Lord Stark was impressed by Gendry's helm and offered to purchase it, though, much to Mott's chagrin, the apprentice told him it wasn't for sale. Like with Arryn, Mott introduced Stark to Gendry. Stark was investigating the mystery surrounding Arryn's death, and as such was following the trail of his predecessor's investigation into Robert's children. ![]() Both men were investigating the legitimacy of King Robert's trueborn heirs.ĭuring 298, months after Jon Arryn's death, Mott's shop was visited by the Hand of the King's successor Lord Eddard Stark. Due to his youth at the time of his enrolment, Gendry barely remembered his mother and didn't remember the man who had paid his apprenticeship fee at all.ĭuring the year 297, whilst working at Master Mott's shop, Gendry was visited by the Hand of the King and Lord of the Eyrie, Jon Arryn, and the master of ships and Lord of Dragonstone, Stannis Baratheon. The master blacksmith owned the premium shop on the Street of Steel, a street in King's Landing primarily consisting of blacksmith shops. ![]() Mott was aware of Gendry's true lineage, but kept the boy's secret due in part to a bribe from Varys. He handsomely paid Tobho Mott, a foreign master blacksmith, to take on Gendry as an apprentice. Gendry was raised by his mother in King's Landing, who sometimes sung to him, until she died when he was still a young boy.Īfter the death of Gendry's mother, Varys the Spider, King Robert's spymaster, took it upon himself to find a new haven for the King's bastard. Though he assumed he was a bastard, Gendry never learned the identity of his father. Robert was a hedonistic womanizer, and Gendry was one of many unacknowledged bastards of the king. His mother was a blond-haired commoner who worked at an alehouse in King's Landing, the capital of the Seven Kingdoms, and Gendry was born in the city. Gendry was born in 284 AC to King Robert I Baratheon, the recently crowned ruler of the Seven Kingdoms of the continent of Westeros.
