Written description:

Jon was raised as a Stark and Northerner and in many ways took to their values of honor, to which he tries to conform even when faced with complex and morally ambiguous decisions, he takes his oaths seriously and expects others to do the same, however, he also feels a sense of duty to his family and would do anything to protect them, including Lady Catelyn, although this can often cause a clash between honoring the Nights Watch or honoring the Starks.





Marital Status: Single

Desired Ships: Jon x Daenerys

Bio: (I will send you this!)

Family:

Eddard Stark | Father (debated) | Deceased| Jon loved and respected his father deeply, although he did not bear the name Stark, Ned always reminded him that he was one and that he loved him and was just as proud of him as he was with his other siblings.

Wylla | Mother (debated) | Deceased| Jon does not know who his mother is, although he has heard of a lowborn woman named Wylla to be his true mother, he does not know how he feels about it but he is intrigued and would like to know. Ned promised to speak about his mother when he they next met, alas they never did and so it remains a mystery.

Catelyn Stark | Step-Mother | Alive| He knows that Lady Catelyn does not like him and despite all of his efforts to and loyalties to her family, she would never accept him. Still, he remains loyal to her and her family, his love for his family outweighs her dislike.

Robb Stark | Brother | Alive|

The sun had not long since risen over the capital of Westeros, Kings Landing and for any rider approaching the city via the Kingsroad; they would be met by the Red Keep. A rather magnificent structure with towering red-brick steeples which soared into the blue skies above, it dominated the surrounding countryside, impressive and daunting at the same time, especially for one who had no memories of the city. Jon Snow felt exactly this as he stopped to admire the sight before him, the last time he had been in Kings Landing he had been a babe and recalled nothing of his time there. His mother had birthed him here, whoever she may be, and his father then took him north, to a life of bastardry and discontent by others, he often wished that his mother had survived his birth so that he could have remained with her, perhaps his life wasn’t wouldn’t have been so miserable. That wasn’t fair, his father had been very good to him, he had been raised as a Stark just not bared the name, he had been given brothers and sister, most of whom treated him as an equal, he had been lucky to have been the son of the honourable Eddard Stark, gods know where he would have been otherwise.

It had been a long, hard ride from the Wall to Kings Landing, not to mention dangerous, the North had still been in turmoil after the Iron Born invasion, with Bran and Rickon gone and Robb still held in Kings Landing, Winterfell still laid in ruins, burned to the ground after the Iron Born had fled. The sight had sickened Jon; he had been north of the wall at the time and only learnt of Winterfell’s fate and Viserys conquering upon his return but his oaths kept him stuck in Castle Black, that was until Visery’s sent a raven for him to travel South, it would seem he wanted no Stark in the North, not even a bastard one. Jon had considered bypassing his home but he needed to see it for himself, he owed it to his family to try and find any trace of his brothers.

His heart clenched upon the sight, many of the buildings had been burnt to the ground, piles of rubble lay scattered around and animal bones littered the muddy floors, it was a harrowing sight. Outside the walls he found a mass burial, everyone had been slain, he had fallen to his knees in front of the grave and wept, unashamed of who saw or heard, his brothers were dead and the Greyjoy’s would pay, that was a promise.

Upon entering the gates of the city, a shiver travelled down Jon’s spine, not one brought on by a chill, for the air was warm and thick and almost suffocating from the muggy atmosphere. It was a shiver of impending something or other, similar to the one he had felt when he had travelled north of the wall for the first time. If history had taught him anything, it would be too heed this as a warning, to trust his gut and watch his back, King’s Landing was dangerous enough before, but now with a King people said was as mad as his father, one couldn’t be too careful. Dangerous times were ahead, very dangerous times, it was quite obvious that although the new King allowed Robb to keep his title, lands and wealth, it was quite evident that they were not trusted and thus why kept them all within his grasp. And yet that was the least of their worries, ‘winter is coming’ and with it brought things ever worse than King Visery’s.
