House Crane[d] of Red Lake is a noble house of the Reach. Their sigil displays a chevron of five gold cranes on a pale blue field.[1][a]
In the books[]
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, House Crane was founded by Rose of Red Lake, a daughter of Garth Greenhand, the legendary High King of the First Men. The women of House Crane are said to be skinchangers with the ability to control cranes.[2]
House Crane joined the Kingdom of the Reach during the reign of King Garth III Gardener.[3] Their seat, Red Lake, was the site of a battle during a Lannister invasion of the Reach.[4]
The Cranes are a part of Renly Baratheon's army during the War of the Five Kings.[5] Ser Parmen Crane joins Renly's Rainbow Guard as "Parmen the Purple."[6] After Renly's death, he joins Stannis,[7] though other members of House Crane are present at the royal court in King's Landing.[8]

Notes[]
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 While the cranes are identifiable, the colors are not clearly visible in the source. They are thus conjectural and subject to change.
- ↑ In "Valyria & the Dragons," Viserys Targaryen states that Aegon began his conquest 100 years after the Doom of Valyria in 102 BC, placing it in 2 BC. In "Aegon, First of His Name," Viserys Targaryen states that the maesters divided history into Before and After Conquest following Aegon I Targaryen's coronation in Oldtown; therefore, Aegon's Conquest began in 2 BC and ended in 1 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 7 in 304 AC.
