King Urron Greyiron, better known as Urron Redhand was the first King of the Iron Islands to make the throne hereditary, five thousand years before the War of the Five Kings.[1]

History

For thousands of years, each island of the Iron Islands had a 'salt king' and a 'rock king'. The High King of the Isles was chosen from among them in a kingsmoot. Urron put an end to that, when he descended on the kingsmoot and killed all the other kings. He then made the throne hereditary.[2] Urron line ruled uncontested for 1,000 years, until the Andals swept over the Iron Islands.[1]

Quotes

'The Drowned God makes men, but it's men who make crowns.' - Urron Redhand. [1]
