Arryk is one of the two personal guards of Olenna Tyrell, the dowager Lady of Highgarden. He is the twin of Erryk, her other guard. Lady Olenna cannot tell them apart, so she calls them Left and Right.[1]

Appearance and Character
Arryk is seven feet tall, well muscled, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist. He has a strong jaw, blue eyes and a thick red mustache. Arryk wears a gilded halfhelm and a green cloak edged in gold satin, with the golden rose of Highgarden sewn on his chest. He is practically indistinguishable from his twin, Erryk.[1]
It is likely that Arryk is named after Ser Arryk Cargyll, the legendary Kingsguard and twin of Ser Erryk Cargyll.
