[hider=John Stark] [img]http://th08.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/i/2012/247/1/9/robb_stark_by_crysaniasea-d5dmcvu.jpg[/img] Name: John Stark Age: 17 House: Stark Family: Mother: Lady Maege Stark, formerly Lady Maege Umber. She is a proud woman of about 48. She cares greatly about her family and would do anything to protect them. She believes that the greatest weapon one can wield is their words and she is skilled with hers. Father: The late Lord Brandon Stark. He was taken by fever two years ago, leaving John as the reigning lord of the North and of Winterfell. He was honorable and proud, never backing down. He served as the former king's Hand. Brothers:[b][u]Open[/u][/b] Sisters:[b][u]Open[/u][/b] Skills: John is skilled with a sword, having been raised by a noble family. Likewise, he is a good horseback rider and a somewhat skilled archer, though it is not his best skill and he would much rather use a sword. Other than that he is quite diplomatic, and is good at keeping peace between enemies, though that may not work in the upcoming war between Lions and Dragons. Weaknesses: John has been cursed with Stark honor. He refuses to go back on deals unless it is an absolute necessity. He won't fight an unarmed enemy and he can be somewhat naive about the workings of politics. Weapon: [img]http://www.valyriansteel.com/shop/images/uploads/sword-on-plaque.jpg[/img] John wields the ancestral sword of House Stark, a Valyrian Steel sword called Ice. Title: Lord of Winterfell, Warden of the North, and soon to be Hand of the King. Personality: John can best be described as a Stark. Because that is what he is. He's honorable, smart, and proud. He's kind to peasants and lords alike but he isn't afraid to stand his ground against the likes of the Lannisters, a House that he has no love for. Bio: John was born as the winter was slowly fading into summer. He was the first born child of Lady Maege and Lord Brandon and as such he was spoiled rotten. When he was eight years old his father accepted the position of Hand of the King for the then king, Jaehaerys Targaryen, and he went with him. He spent the next eight years in King's Landing, going back to Winterfell only occasionally. As such he became good friends with the now king, Daeron, and he considers him one of his closest allies. The two would often play together in the Red Keep, scaring his mother's handmaidens and spying on the small council meetings. When John's father fell ill they traveled back to Winterfell where his father died three months later, leaving him as the new Lord of House Stark. Since then he has been trying to make a name for himself as someone who respects his subjects but will fight for what he believes in. Other:John is the owner of a direwolf named Shiera, after one of Aegon IV's bastards, a woman who seduced many men and was considered a powerful sorceress. His mother gave him the idea after he stated he wanted to name the animal something powerful. She said that most women find power in words not in weapons, and then told him the story of Shiera Seastar. "When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die."

She is a courageous woman, not afraid to fight for her family in whatever manner possible. She is the same age as Lady Maege Stark and the two grew close while the Starks were in King's Landing. Father: Daeron's father was the late King Jaehaerys Targaryen, a man who was praised for his strong leadership. Jaehaerys died at the age of 49, when he fell ill and died in quick succession. He was a brave man, riding into battle fearlessly to defend not only his claims, but his men as well. Brothers:[b][u]Open[/u][/b] Sisters:[b][u]Open[/u][/b] Skills: Daeron is a skilled warrior, excelling at sword fighting and archery especially. He is also quite skilled at getting information, using his charm and the many resources at his command. Weaknesses: Daeron can't ride a horse. It's never been appealing to him. and he never learned the skill. He is also known for having a short fuse, and can snap very quickly, making him easily manipulated by his anger. Weapon: [img]http://i661.photobucket.com/albums/uu338/samurainoryuu/OCS/Alerie%20Targaryen/Aleriessword.jpg[/img] Daeron is known for utilizing a sword that was forged in the times of Daenarys Targaryen, Athdrivar, which is the Dothraki word for death. Title: Ruler of the Seven Kingdoms/King on the Iron Throne/King of Westeros. Personality: Daeron has always been described as ambitious. He's always wanted power. Lucky thing he was born into the royal family. However he wants more. Some think he is too hungry for power, others believe that ambition will protect them. Whether or not they are right may soon be revealed. Daeron is also known for his temper, and could be described as obnoxious during his outbursts. However, he is a kind person to his friends and tries to be kind to his subjects as well. Bio: Daeron was the first born child of King Jaehaerys and Queen Olenna. He was doted upon from an early age and given anything he could possibly want. Unlike some noble children, he refused to squire for a knight, stating he was too good for a position of servitude. His parents didn't press the subject and he continued on with his life. Now he is king, and he is blind to the games the Lannisters are playing, seeing as how his eyes are set across the Narrow Sea, in the land of Essos. Daeron is a true Targaryen and he lusts for the conquer. Whether he follows through or not is the million gold dragon question. Other:"When you play the game of thrones, you win, or you die." [/hider]
