House Baratheon

House Baratheon of Storm's End is a Great House of Westeros. House Baratheon traditionally rules the Stormlands on the eastern coast of Westeros, aptly named for its frequent storms, from their seat of Storm's End.

House Baratheon became the royal house of the Seven Kingdoms after Robert Baratheon led a rebellion against the Targaryen dynasty. At the end of the rebellion, Robert ascended the Iron Throne as Robert I and married Cersei Lannister, after the death of Lyanna Stark. Robert founded House Baratheon of King's Landing as a result.

Having given his younger brother Stannis the castle of Dragonstone, another cadet branch, House Baratheon of Dragonstone, was founded. Robert and Stannis' younger brother Renly became the new Lord of Storm's End as a result.

House Baratheon's sigil is a crowned black stag on a gold background and their house words are "Ours Is the Fury."
