Bio:
Some men are born sexy, and some men have sexiness thrust upon them. Will Roxton looks like if the gods had combined both of these people. Born a beautiful baby, at five minutes old Will had already become more handsome than half the men in his father's lands. Growing up, Will always wanted to become a knight, so he trained with swords and lances every day, and eventually became skilled at using both. Little was atypical about Will's early life. At age 14, he began squiring for a Tyrell knight, and by age 20 he had been knighted. After Will was knighted, he met his squire and companion Rory Redding, a rusty haired, freckled young man who is never far from the knight.
The first, and only major upset in Will's life came two years ago, when his older brother Corban Roxton died when his group was ambushed by bandits. After his death, the family sword, Orphan-Maker was given to Will, which he now carries with him everywhere. After Corban's death, Will stayed at the Ring as his father prepared him to one day take on the responsibilities of lordship. Now, Will has just arrived at Highgarden at his father's request, who wants to have a Roxton near the Tyrells as important decisions are made.
This isn't the only time that Jon Roxton has used his children for tools for political gain. The aging lord has plans to marry both of Will's sisters off to lords for political alliances, and is already in the process of looking for a wife for his son. In addition to this, Corban Roxton died guarding a Fossoway's caravan, as a favor from his father to the family. Will's father's misuse of his children has created a fair amount of friction in their family as well, with both Will and his mother Margaery Bulwer blaming Lord Roxton for the death of Corban.
