House Celtigar

House Celtigar is a noble house in the Narrow Sea, situated on Claw Isle. Claw Isle lays to the north-east of Dragonstone and Driftmark, and is the most distant of the three Valyrian houses to have settled in Blackwater Bay. Perhaps as a consequence of this, they are the smallest of the three and are more politically distant from the Targaryens and Velaryons, though they are all still close allies. In the time since the Targaryens built Dragonstone, there have been few or no intermarriages-- this in contrast to their frequent marriages to Velaryons.

History
The Celtigars migrated from Valyria at roughly the same time as the Velaryons, though their chosen location proved somewhat ill-considered. Positioned as it was near the vast, seemingly-empty expanses of Crackclaw Point, subsequent efforts by various Lords of Claw Isle to subjugate the Clawmen have failed, and while the Celtigars still claim dominion over these lands they are not recognized by any inhabitant to be the rightful lords.

Even so, the Celtigars have slowly amassed a fleet and wealth rivaling that of many mainland houses. Among their prize possessions is an axe of Valyrian steel, called Crab's Pincer. It is unclear if this weapon was owned by the family when it migrated west before the Doom of Valyria, or acquired in the century afterwards.
