The rulers of the [[Six Duchies]], a line which started with [[Taker]] who arrived from the [[Out Islands]], and continues to King-In-Waiting [[Dutiful]] and then, presumably, his son [[Prosper]].
== The Line of Inheritence Inheritance ==
Inheritence of the crown is chronological; the eldest child of the reining reigning monarch, or the nearest relation with the strongest Farseer blood will be first on the thrownthrone, regardless of gender. At 16, the oldest heir will become King - or Queen-in-Waiting, a position designed to give the potential ruler the power he or she desired while helping them learn teach the responsibily responsibility that goes with it before they ascend to the throne.
If a ruling Farseer diesand the King-in-Waiting or Queen-in-Waiting is not yet adult, their other half the ruler's spouse will continue to rule over the Six Duchies, even if they contain he or she contains less Farseer blood then than their children.
==The Skill==
All of the Farseer line show themselves in possesion of the [[Skill]], and throughout the their history have used [[Skill-coterie]]s. The Skill is was taught to all royalty, save for a brief period from King [[Bounty]] to Queen [[Kettricken]], when it was only taught to Princes, and from then on was taught to all in the Six Duchies who showed a talent for it, royal or not.
==Infidelity==
There is a large history of infidelity amongst the Farseer royals, with both the men and the women of the line having bastard children in and out of court, as seen with [[Fitz]], [[Chade]], [[Charger]] and [[Galen]]. While still being scandalous, it does not appear to be that unnacceptable to have a bastard, and are thus allowed to live at court, and even wear their the family crest, albeit with a red line embroided embroidered through it to show their illegitimate birth.
