History

Ser Ryam was considered the greatest knight of his day. He was also considered one of the worst Hands of the King the realm has ever seen.[3] In the great tourney of King's Landing in 98 AC to celebrate the fiftieth year of King Jaehaerys reign, Ser Ryam and Ser Clement Crabb broke thirty lances against each other before King Jaehaerys proclaimed them cochampions, in what is often called the finest display of jousting in Westerosi history.[4]

In 99 AC, Ser Ryam was named Hand of the King by Jaehaerys I, after the death of the previous Hand Septon Barth. Ryam was terrible in this office, and was replaced by the king's son and heir, Prince Baelon, less than a year after having been raised to the office.[4]

He was succeeded as Lord Commander by Ser Harrold Westerling when he died in 105 AC. His slot in the Kingsguard was taken by Ser Criston Cole.[2]
