== Year ==

In Dance, Barristan says that he's 63, so he would've been 60 or so at the beginning of the series. We also know that he was named to the Kingsguard at age 23, and that the appointment came after this war. He would've been 23 in the year 261, and Aegon V's reign ended in 259. I feel like there is a passage that specifies his age when he slew Maelys; can anyone verify this? --[[User:Ser_Aeron_Connel|Ser_Aeron_Connel]] 22:44, 28 April 2012 (UTC)
