A cadet branch consists of the male-line descendants of a monarch's or patriarch's younger sons ().In the ruling dynasties and noble families of much of Europe and Asia, the family's major assets (realm, titles, fiefs, property and income) have historically been passed from a father to his firstborn son in what is known as primogeniture; younger sons, the cadets, inherited less wealth and ...

"We are kin. Stark and Karstark."
―Lord Rickard Karstark reminds King Robb Stark of their blood ties.
A cadet branch is a noble house founded by a cadet (legitimate younger son) of another house.
They are usually created when a younger member of a noble house, who is not the current heir of the family seat, is granted lands and titles of his own. Bastards, if legitimized, or trueborn descendants of legitimized bastards, when granted lands and titles of their own, also found cadet branches.
Larger and wealthier noble houses such as the Lannisters or Tyrells may have numerous younger cousins, but these are all part of the main house - albeit far down in the line of succession. When younger children or cousins form their own cadet branch, they become head of this new house, though the cadet branch is not considered as prestigious as the main line.
Strictly speaking, a "cadet branch" consists of only male-line descendants, in an unbroken chain from father to son - in which case the founding member was a younger son of another noble house. The inheritance systems in the Seven Kingdoms do not put as much value on descent through the female line. New houses have been formed from the female-line younger descendants of other houses, but their lineage is considered inferior compared to cadet branches who can claim male-line descent.
•House Blackfyre, founded by Daemon I Blackfyre, a legitimized bastard son of King Aegon IV Targaryen. The house became extinct after being defeated in numerous rebellions attempting to claim the Iron Throne.
•House Karstark of Karhold, formerly House Stark of Karl's Hold. Founded by Karlon Stark, a younger son of House Stark of Winterfell. Over time, Karl's Hold came to be called Karhold, and the Starks residing there became the Karstarks.
•House Baratheon of King's Landing. Founded by Robert Baratheon after taking King's Landing at the end of Robert's Rebellion. It is special in that it was founded by the lord of House Baratheon rather than a younger son. It unofficially dies out with Robert, and is taken over by House Lannister as a proxy House, as his three children Joffrey, Myrcella, and Tommen are actually bastards fathered by Jaime Lannister.
•House Baratheon of Dragonstone. Founded by Stannis Baratheon when he is given Dragonstone after Robert's Rebellion.

A cadet house is an offshoot of another house. For example, House Karstark is a cadet house of House Stark because it was established as a house in its own right by a younger son of House Stark. The Cleganes aren’t a cadet house of House Lannister because it was not established by a member of House Lannister. It’s a house in its own right.
