Donal Royce (son of Donal)

Donal Royce is a member of House Royce. His status is uncertain.

Biography[]

Donal Royce is the firstborn son of his father by the same name and Priscilla Royce. He is the third of his house to be named Donal, and has blue eyes and light brown hair. When he was 22 years old, he married Catherine Hornwood, who bore him a stillborn son and six daughters.^[1]

Behind the scenes[]

Donal Royce is mentioned in the section on House Royce in the Season 1 prop for The Lineages and Histories of the Great Houses of the Seven Kingdoms. The section on House Royce never appears on-screen in the TV series, as its planned appearance, where Eddard Stark would have read from it, was cut.

In the books[]

Donal Royce is referenced only in the TV adaptation of A Song of Ice and Fire and has no corresponding counterpart in the books.

Notes[]

↑ The Lineages and Histories of the Great Houses of the Seven Kingdoms states that Donal Royce was born in 202 AC.
↑ In "Winter Is Coming," which takes place in 298 AC, Sansa Stark tells Cersei Lannister that she is 13 years old and Bran Stark tells Jaime Lannister that he is 10 years old. Arya Stark was born between Sansa and Bran, making her either 11 or 12 in Season 1. The rest of the Stark children have been aged up by 2 years from their book ages, so it can be assumed that she is 11 in Season 1. Arya is 18 in Season 8 according to HBO, which means at least 7 years occur in the span of the series; therefore, each season of Game of Thrones must roughly correspond to a year in-universe, placing the events of Season 8 in 305 AC.
