Harren Hoare, better known as Harren the Black, was the last King of the Iron Islands and the Riverlands and the last ruling member of House Hoare. He was the grandson of Harwyn Hardhand, the first King of the Iron Islands to rule the Trident. He was the builder of the great castle Harrenhal in the Riverlands. [1]

History

He was a vain, bloody tyrant. Hated by those he ruled, the Riverlords deserted him and joined Aegon I against him. He was slain during the War of Conquest when Aegon I burned the new castle, Harrenhal, down around him using his dragons. His sons perished with him in the conflagration.[2] His brother was Lord Commander of the Night's Watch when he died at Harrenhal.[3]
