Nute Greyjoy is the brother of Lord Roryn Greyjoy, and the son of Torric the Blackhand and Mara Sunderly. He currently serves as Lord Commander of the Iron Fleet, a position bestowed upon him by his brother after his return from a brief exile. He boasts three trueborn sons - triplets - and two acknowledged bastard sons, though only one yet lives. Countless other sons and daughters share his blood, though neither his name nor his attentions.
