Bartimos Celtigar was a Lord of Claw Isle and a head of House Celtigar during the Dance of the Dragons.[1]

History

Lord Bartimos was a member of Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen's black council during the Dance of the Dragons. He urged the queen to use her numerical advantage in dragons to take King's Landing from King Aegon II Targaryen, but Rhaenyra agreed with the cautious Prince Daemon Targaryen.[1] After Rhaenyra seized control of King's Landing, Lord Bartimos was made her Master of Coin on her small council. The treasury was completely empty and Rhaenyra was in desperate need of coin, for the Greens had sent three quarters of the gold away for safe keeping and spent the rest prior to the fall of the capital, to rectify this Lord Bartimos put in place the ruinous taxes his ancestor Edwell Celtigar once enacted, although Bartimos went a step further. Taxes on wine and ale were doubled, port fees tripled. Every shop keeper was assessed a fee to keep his doors open. Innkeeps were required to pay a silver stag for each bed in their inn. [2]

After the Treasons of Tumbleton by the Two Betrayers, Bartimos urged Rhaenyra to arrest the other two baseborn dragonriders, Ser Addam Velaryon and Nettles.[1][2]
