izembaroo Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 For me its Torrhen Stark...the man knelt and submitted his pride and honour to Aegon the Conqueror instead of engaging in battle. All to save the thousands of lives that rode beneath his banners, id say that deserves all the honour in the world. How about everyone else? any bran the builder fans? Artos?Let's hear it!

BericDondarrion Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Theon StarkYou know that this will come into play somehow. Theon always wanted to be a Stark but couldn't. Theon is an ironborn yet his name was a name of a Stark king. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K26dp Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Rickard Stark, Ned's father. Lady Dunstin's comment about his "southron ambitions" was one of the most intriguing bits of ADwD. It's just odd to think of the head of the Stark family maybe being a real player in the game of thrones on purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattah84 Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Ned's mom and grandmom.I want to know if one of them is either a Reed, a Targaryen, a Bolton, or a Ryswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Arryn Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Jon and his son RIckard. Built the Wolf's Den to protect the White Knife, took the Neck and protected the southern approach. The Wise Wolves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Table8 Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Technically not a Stark, but Brandon Snow. I'm curious to know his plan for killing dragons and if he is the man Bran sees making three arrows out of weir wood branches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
not in the face Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Cregan Stark. Prince Aemon the Dragonkinght said he was the finest swordsman he ever fought. Do all the Starks wield Ice or is it a Dawn like situation with them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eating My Wings Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Brandon the Shipwright. He seems to be the first and last person in Westeros to think that sailing across the Sunset Sea is worth trying + the first and last King of Winter to realize that the North should posses a considerable naval force. If only his son weren't so stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARYa_Nym Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 I would also like to know about Cregan Stark. I know Brandon and Arya both wanted to fight the crown prince but I don't know the circumstances for Cregan vs. Aemon the Dragonknight.Brandon Stark the Wild Wolf I want to know more about the most. He seems hot and is very similar to Arya. I want more.Brandon Ice Eyes.Agreed on the Wandering Wolf Rodrik Stark. Why did he want to go to Essos?Brandon the Shipwright to learn more about the Stark's naval power.Brandon the Burner to know what he was thinking when he burned up the fleet. Did he go mad or was it just impulsive?Whichever one was the NK.Brandon the Bad and Benjen the Bitter.Theon the Hungry Wolf. I know he liked war and I'm guessing killing.

Free Northman Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 I too have pondered a lot on Torhenn Stark, but I view him in the opposite way to the original poster. I view him as a sad failure. Forever to be known as the King who Knelt.As opposed to the Yellow Toad of Dorne, who dared the Targaryens to bring their lizards if they had the courage. A 70 year old woman had more courage in the face of death than the King of the ancient North.In any case, I sincerely hope there is more to Torhenn's decision than just choosing the pacifist option. I retain hope that a prophecy played a role in his decision. But it seems likely to be a unfulfilled hope.I guess to answer the original question, more information on any of the Pre-Targaryen Stark Kings would be most welcome.
