<P> Jaime was born shortly after the birth of his twin sister Cersei . The two were inseparable as children , and at an early age began an incestuous affair that continued into adulthood and even after Cersei 's marriage to Robert Baratheon . At the age of fifteen he participated in the battle against the Kingswood Brotherhood , squiring for Lord Sumner Crakehall , and was subsequently knighted by Ser Arthur Dayne . While returning to Casterly Rock , he visited Cersei at King 's Landing , who persuaded him to join the Kingsguard in order to be close to her . Jaime was accepted into the Kingsguard , but Tywin resigned as Hand of the King , taking Cersei with him back to Casterly Rock . Jaime quickly realises that Aerys named him to the Kingsguard solely to strip Tywin of his heir . Jaime becomes further disillusioned after witnessing Aerys burn Rickard and Brandon Stark alive and overhearing him raping his sister - wife Rhaella . When Tywin begins sacking King 's Landing at the climax of Robert 's Rebellion , Jaime realises that Aerys intends to burn King 's Landing with wildfire and kills him , almost immediately being discovered by Tywin 's men . Robert Baratheon later pardons Jaime for breaking his vows and names him to his own Kingsguard . Although Jaime considers his assassination of Aerys as his greatest act , his motives for killing him remain unknown to the rest of the realm and he is given the insulting moniker `` Kingslayer '' . </P>
