i thought a huntsman, a falconeer and hound master. Could be looking for employment from a house or an individual or I could be traveling with someone if that works better. i can get a more extensive concept to you if that fits the story. I have the soiaf rulebook and campaign guide and have read up to 1/3 through adwd. and seen the first season on HBO as well. Plus i run an rpg using soiaf rules on monday nights.
So... familiar with the rules. Cool beans. Always good.
A huntsman/falconer/master-of-hounds is cool; nothing like that has been claimed in House Vantri, so it's all yours.
Since we never explicitly said that the whole group traveling to the tourney is just the two knights and the rest accompanying guards, we're easily able to slot your character in the group as well. That's the easiest way to bring him in. Probably been taking his turn traveling with the scouts and so has been "off-screen" until now.
