History

By 49 AC the young King Jaehaerys still had five vacant spots in the Kingsguard to fill. At the Wedding of his Mother and Lord Rogar Baratheon, it was decided to fill the remaining five slots by a test of arms since knights from all over the realm had come to attend the wedding, Jaehaerys agreed, but with a twist, the Knights must fight on foot not the joust, for foes seldom strike a King via horseback. [1]

The wild Melee's and bloody duels that followed were dubbed by Maesters as the War for the White Cloaks with hundreds of knights competing for the honour of serving in the Kingsguard. Ser Victor the Valiant was one of the five champions and was given a White cloak.[1]
