Brandon Stark, known as Brandon the Burner, was a King in the North and a head of House Stark. He was the son of Brandon the Shipwright.[1]

History

Brandon became King in the North after the disappearance in the Sunset Sea of his father, King Brandon the Shipwright, thousands of years before Aegon's Conquest.[2] In his grief,[3] the new king set fire to his father's shipyards and remaining ships.[3][2] Brandon's tomb is located in the crypt of Winterfell.[3]

During the harvest feast, Lord Wyman Manderly offers to build a new warfleet for Robb Stark, King in the North, as the north has lacked naval strength since Brandon the Burner's time.[4]

Quotes

We have had no strength at sea for hundreds of years, since Brandon the Burner put the torch to his father's ships. Grant me the gold and within the year I will float you sufficient galleys to take Dragonstone and King's Landing both.[4]
