House Buckler of Bronzegate is one of the noble houses from the Stormlands sworn to Storm's End.
According to semi-canon sources their arms depict three brass buckles on blue.[1] Their motto is unknown.
During the War of the Five Kings, Lord Ralph most likely first declared for Renly Baratheon before siding with his brother Stannis and deserting him in turn for Joffrey. Ser Brus, however, remains in Stannis's service and is one of the Queen's Men.
