Does this work with Robert in any way?

Say I have him attacking and an opponent declares a defender, thus giving Bob a +1 STR, could I trigger this lady to stand him so I can cause some ruckus and dethrone the Mad King with the fury of a stag (just filling the 100 word requisite)

Yes, Courtier can trigger when STR is increased by a constant ability (Robert or Jousting Pavilion). — mplain 238

Just ran into a situation with a player who had multiple Highgarden Courtiers on the board. Could you trigger the effect multiple times with the separate courtiers or does the once per phase limit apply to all copies of the card?

"Limit" is per card, so you can trigger each Highgarden Courtier on the board to stand separate characters. — ystros 1
So now I'm confused about Brothel Madame. Why can't you trigger multiple Brothel Madames? — CMonster907 21
You can trigger multiple Brothel Madames, but the ability is worded such that giving gold for one instance of the ability will resolve it for all instances of the ability. If the opponent gives you gold for the first Madame, then they have "given you gold this phase", so the condition has been met for the second Madame as well. Only "Max" restrictions like on Put to the Sword or Bloody Arakh apply across multiple copies of the same card. — ystros 1

Does it works with jousting Pavilion? If a knight character attacks alone can i use the reaction of the highgarden courtier to stand that knight?

Does this work with Walder Frey?

The Lord of the Crossing agenda?

Making a Frey deck, cause I like to play the anti hero

When you make your third challenge with Lord of the Crossing, you can stand a participating character whose strength was raised. — mrdav 127
Whoops, hit enter by accident! If you attack in the third challenge with a Frey character, Walder Frey will also join the challenge and have his strength increased, and so you can stand him. — mrdav 127
