Edderion Stark

Edderion Stark is the son of Jon II Stark and his first wife, Sarra Mormont. As his late brother Eon had been, he is a fearsome opponent in combat - credited, also, to his great size.

He serves Winterfell as its Castellan, and is considered a very close and loyal conciliator of his niece, Berena Stark, the Lady of Winterfell.

Apperance and Character
Edderion Stark had always been a big and stocky person, even in his youth. Growing up, his impressive size combined with training made him a fearsome opponent in combat when paired with his warhammer. Long, kempt pale brown hair sat on his head, often tied back in a ponytail of sorts, and he grew a braided beard of similar color. With sharp facial features, and the grey eyes so typical of House Stark, Edderion was generally known to be a handsome man. He dressed in the humble furs and thick cloaks that many Northmen did, preferring to wear a plain, dark grey cloak when he can.

As a kid, many of those in Winterfell observed that despite his great size and impressive skills with the hammer, Edderion was a gentle giant at heart. He was friendly and polite with the other children and adults around him, seemed to be very bright, and took to both his studies and training very well. One might have been forgiven for thinking that Edderion would become a lord in his own right one day. Yet, it never once seemed throughout his entire life that Edderion sought power for himself, and he has remained steadfast and loyal to House Stark.

Early Life
Edderion was born in Winterfell in 403 AC. He is the second son and third child of the late Lord Jon II Stark with his first wife, Sarra Mormont. The Maester of Winterfell was almost surprised at how large the babe was. Though born in the midst of the Scarlet Winter, Edderion was still too young to remember the worst of it.

He was wed at the age of five-and-ten to Arya Tallhart as not to sully her honor when she became with child. They would go on to have three daughters: Arsa, Mariah, and Gilliane. Arya died following complications with her birth few days following Gilliane's birth in 421.

Edderion remarried two years later, taking his childhood friend Meera Hornwood to wife in 423 AC. Together they have two children: Lyra and Jojen.
