House Baelish of the Fingers is a noble house from the Vale, and a cadet branch of House Baelish of Harrenhal. The seat of House Baelish is an unnamed, old flint tower, which commands no more than a few stony acres on the smallest of the Fingers. House Baelish's smallfolk consists of a small village consisting mostly of sheep farmers.

A small port was constructed many years ago near the old flint tower in an effort to facilitate trade across the Narrow Sea, but the waters are usually too shallow to dock ships of any significant size.

Efforts are being made to earn the House some wealth by selling brocades woven from the wool of the sheep on their lands, with limited success.

The current lord, Tybolt Baelish, is an honourable man and capable warrior, fiercely loyal to House Arryn.

History

Prior to the First Era

House Baelish first began with Petyr "Littlefinger" Baelish's great-grandfather, who was born in Braavos and came to the Vale as a sellsword employed by House Corbray. His son took the head of the Titan of Braavos as his sigil when he was knighted. During the events of the War of the Five Kings and after the Battle of the Blackwater, Petyr "Littlefinger" Baelish is awarded the castle Harrenhal and titled Lord Paramount of the Trident for services rendered to the crown. The original Titan head sigil was soon abandoned in favour of a field of silver mockingbirds on a green field, Littlefinger's personal sigil. The Old Flint Tower that had been House Baelish's original seat was largely ignored until being inherited by a younger son of Littlefinger. The descendants of this younger son now consist of House Baelish of the Fingers, whilst the descendants of his older brother are the branch now known as House Baelish of Harrenhal. House Baelish of the Fingers has been serving House Arryn faithfully since its creation 150 years ago.
