House Woolfield

House Woolfield is a noble house from the North. As long as history goes back, House Woolfield has been sworn to House Manderly as ever loyal vassals. Throughout generations, Woolfields have married into the Manderly house, keeping the relationship between vassal and liege strong.

Late Fourth Century
Towards the end of the fourth century AC, House Woolfield was still a small house but through ambitious and powerful leaders, began making head ways to gain power and prestige with the other Northern houses.

Just before the Hammer Uprising, a series of lazy and ineffectual lords took helm of the House. These pitiful men drove what little power and prestige the previous lords of Ramsgate built and drove it back to the ground.

With Torghen Woolfield taking over as Lord of the house, this trend continued: the man grew up spoiled and fat and refused to give up his gluttonous upbringing even during difficult times like the Great Famine.

Fifth Century
The Fifth Century saw the continued downward spiral of the Woolfield's power. By the time of the Second Hammer Uprising the Woolfield name had all but become a joke spoken from the lowest of the common folk to the rest of the Northern nobles.

When the Starks and the rest of the North finally joined the fighting in the Riverlands, Torghen reluctantly answered the call. During the "Siege of Oldstones", Torghen's complete ineptitude at resembling anything of a leader reared it's ugly head: the Woolfield line broke under the slightest of pressure from the rebels and multiple Woolfield nobles were killed in the skirmishing.

With Torghen's and Brandon's death, Ramsgate was passed down to Wayne Woolfield, a man determined to break the unfortunate and destructive traditions that his small house found itself succumbing to.
