In the verdant heart of the Eastweald, where the trees grow tall and the sun filters softly through ancient boughs, House Hunter traces its legacy. Born of the woods and bound to them by blood and custom, these First Men kings carved their realm not from stone, but from root and canopy. While the Age of Heroes saw many great houses rise through conquest and keep building, the Hunters did so by mastering the wilderness itself. Hunters by name and by nature, their dominion was never one of walls and towers, but of trails, glens, and the old sacred weirwood groves where men speak to gods unseen.

The Hunters were counted among the greatest powers of the First Men amidst Mountain and Vale. The Hunters ruled by bowstring and shadow. The beasts of the Weald were their first foes. Shadowcats, direwolves, giants of old, and it was in defeating them that the Hunters claimed their place as sovereigns of the wood.

The coming of the Andals has seen septs rise in lands once held by the wild, but the Hunters endure.
