Lord Ambrose Butterwell
Lord of the Milkhouse, briefly and badly Hand of the King under Daeron II. Rich as cream, timid as milk ÔÇö a man who wants the rewards of treason without the risks, and hosts a wedding that serves him neither.
A soul of House Butterwell, born at Whitewalls, sworn to The Black Dragon's Men.

As a figure central to The Mystery KnightÔÇÖs plot, Lord Butterwell has not appeared in any season of the show aired to date. His character offers an appealing role for adaptation whenever the production reaches it ÔÇö a host caught out by his own guestsÔÇÖ ambitions, equal parts victim and enabler of the conspiracy unfolding under his roof.
