Hoarfrost Umber
Hoarforst Umber was the head of House Umber and The King of The Last Lands from 20 A.I. until 84 A.I. 'The Bewitched' who earned the nickname by wedding a woods witch by the name of Cigna. Many believed the majority of decisions he made were under her direct control, but those that knew him understood it was all out of love.
He was best known for commanding the armies of a united North against the The Warg King in 79 A.I. and of the Bolton-Umber conflicts that took place over his entire rule, including allying with Rickard Stark of The Lands of Winter to ensure his lands and House were persevere. While facing conflicts with House Umber and House Frost over The Frostfields, Hoarfrost ensured his house would have a reliable and strong ally for this generation and the next by wedding a daughter to the heir of The Lands of Winter.
Appearance[edit]
Hoarfrost stood just about seven feet tall with a massive muscular body. Umbers were said to be descendants of Giants and this man was no exception. He was dark of hair that he kept neat until old age took it from him. He had a thick beard tied in multiple spots. He typically wore brown plain tunics with a brown fur cloak, most likely made of bear.
As King, he wore the Umber Crown, an open circlet of hammered bronze in the shape of fists breaking apart a linked chain, inspired by their house words of 'Break The Chains.'
Personality[edit]
Umbers are known to be loud and boisterous, and Hoarfrost embodied that. An accomplished commander, Hoarfrost was a man who loved his family, enjoyed revelry, and fought his enemies bitterly. Not one to let go of a grudge or slight, Hoarfrost fought House Bolton bitterly for nearly the entirety of his rule. His strength, size and stubborn mind defined the man to his enemies and friends alike.
While he was able to let himself trust The Starks over time, it was largely due to Rickard Stark and his sons ability in battle, the one thing Hoarfrost respected the most.
Quotes by Hoarfrost[edit]
“"Your food looks great and I'd never turn down a drink!" His gaze then turned to the King's sister. "You are a pretty one. If my wife did not satisfy me so I'd steal you away. Hah." - Hoarfrost to Val Frost
"War is a hard bitch Stark. It took my father from me and for many years I was the last of the Umbers. Still, winter is meaner. Hahaha. I have always known that I would rather die with an axe in my hand then let the cold take me." - Umber to Rickard Stark
