Roderick Dustin, known as Roddy the Ruin, was the Lord of Barrowton and the head of House Dustin during the Targaryen civil war known as the Dance of the Dragons.[1]
History
Great Council of 101 AC
An unnamed Lord Dustin was present at the Great Council in 101 AC to decide who should be King Jaehaerys I Targaryen's heir. This Lord Dustin supported Laenor Velaryon's claim to the Iron Throne.[2] He may have been Roderick.
Dance of the Dragons
The north supported the blacks during the Dance of the Dragons. Roderick led two thousand northern soldiers, known as the Winter Wolves, south of the Neck to support the claim of Rhaenyra Targaryen.[1]
In the battle by the Lakeshore along the western Gods Eye, Lord Dustin's Winter Wolves led the attack and charged at Lannister spearmen five times, with more than two-thirds of the northern force killed or wounded in their victory. Roddy the Ruin also sounded the charge in the Butcher's Ball which claimed the life of the Kingmaker, Ser Criston Cole.[1]
Roderick died during the first Battle of Tumbleton while leading his northmen against Lord Ormund Hightower. Although Ser Bryndon Hightower chopped off Roderick's shield arm, Lord Dustin was able to slay both Hightowers before dying himself.[1]
Quotes
—Roderick prior to the battle by the Lakeshore

—Roderick before Criston Cole is killed
As the singers tell it, Lord Roderick was blood from head to heel as he came on, with splintered shield and cracked helm, yet so drunk with battle that he did not even seem to feel his wounds.[1]
—Gyldayn writing of the first Battle of Tumbleton
