Jason Lannister was Lord of Casterly Rock and head of House Lannister during the reigns of Viserys I and Aegon II Targaryen.[2]

History

In 112 ᴀᴄ, before he was lord, Ser Jason and his younger twin, Ser Tyland, vied for the hand of Rhaenyra Targaryen without success.[3]

During the civil war known as the Dance of the Dragons (129 ᴀᴄ-131 ᴀᴄ) Jason was loyal to King Aegon II and the greens against Rhaenyra's claim, while Tyland was Aegon's master of coin.[2] Jason was killed by Pate of Longleaf in the Battle at the Red Fork, however, which left Casterly Rock in considerable disarray.[4] Jason's widow, Lady Johanna Lannister, defended the westerlands from the Red Kraken, Lord Dalton Greyjoy.[5]
