Ser Athirius Roke (died 1537) was the first Baron of Nessvelt of the House of Roke. He was a personal friend of the emperor, John I, serving with him when the latter was a young boy in the Exeter War of Aeldin. He was reputed as being already an old man by the time of his friend's accession to the throne, though was nevertheless known for his loyal service and physical ability as a warrior. He died in the Battle of Rhewengrad during the Eighteen Years' War, and was succeeded by his firstborn son, Rhys Roke.
