House Baelish of the Fingers is a noble house from the Vale. The seat of House Baelish is located on the Fingers in the Vale. Their holdings lie on the smallest of the Fingers.[1] The current lord, Petyr Baelish is only the second generation of the landed family. His grandfather had been a landless hedge knight and his father the smallest of lords.[2]

The house began with Petyr's great-grandfather, who was born in Braavos and came to the Vale as a sellsword employed by House Corbray. His son took the head of the Titan as his sigil when he was knighted. His arms were a grey stone head with fiery eyes on a light green field.[3]
