Gendry I Baratheon

King Gendry I Baratheon was the twenty-third ruler of the Seven Kingdoms and fourth monarch of the Baratheon Dynasty. He was a legally unacknowledged bastard of King Robert I Baratheon, legitimised by Queen Daenerys I Targaryen, and the half-brother of his father's nineteen other bastard children, among them Edric Baratheon, who Gendry himself legitimised. He reigned from 305 AC until his death in 325 AC, and was succeeded by his son, Robert II Baratheon. He was formally styled as Gendry of the House Baratheon, the First of His Name, King of the Andals, the Rhoynar, and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms, and Protector of the Realm.

Born in King's Landing in the slums of Flea Bottom, he spent his early life as the apprentice of King's Landing blacksmith Tobho Mott. Following the execution of Eddard Stark, Tobho, wise to Gendry's lineage, sent him to a Night's Watch recruiter to be taken to the Wall, in order to protect him from the wrath of King Joffrey I Baratheon. Gendry and the rest of the recruits were ultimately captured and taken to Harrenhal, but Gendry escaped alongside Arya Stark and Hot Pie. The three were later captured by the Brotherhood Without Banners, and Gendry was soon after sold to Melisandre and taken to Dragonstone to be sacrificed to the Lord of Light, but was saved by Davos Seaworth and made it back to King's Landing. Several years later, Gendry was found again by Davos Seaworth and chose to travel north to participate in the Great War. Just before the Fall of Winterfell, Gendry was legitimised by Queen Daenerys Targaryen and made Lord of Storm's End and Daenerys' heir to the Iron Throne. Following Daenerys' death and the conclusion of the Great War, Gendry legitimised and granted his old titles to his brother Edric, and assumed the throne. Gendry soon after married his lover, Arya Stark, and sired a son which they named Robert (or Robb), after both Gendry's father and Arya's elder brother. Just four years into his reign, the War of the Narrow Sea broke out, which saw the deaths of both Arya and Edric, leaving Gendry to mourn for the rest of his life. Gendry eventually grew ill, passing away in his sleep.
