The Kingswood Brotherhood was an infamous outlaw organization during the reign of Aerys II. Operating out of the Kingswood, the Brotherhood gained recognition by kidnapping several nobles and evading early attempts to capture them. Ultimately they became such a nuisance that King Aerys sent a detachment of soldiers led by notable members of the Kingsguard to destroy them. In a notable clash, Jaime Lannister, Arthur Dayne, and Barristan Selmy faced off against several notable outlaws including the Smiling Knight and the leader, Simon Toyne. Barristan Selmy killed Simon Toyne, while Arthur Dayne killed the Smiling Knight. Jaime Lannister regards the battle, in which he crossed swords with the Smiling Knight, as one of his fondest memories.

Other members of the Brotherhood included Wenda the White Fawn, Oswyn Longneck, the Thrice Hanged, Big Belly Ben, and Ulmer. All members are presumed dead except Ulmer, who joined the Night's Watch to avoid execution.
