Jon Heddle, better known as Long Jon Heddle, was a knight who owned the Crossroads Inn.

Appearance

Jon was crippled.[1]

History

Long Jon took over the inn at the crossroads when he retired from adventuring. He also took up ironworking, and forged a sign in the shape of a three-headed dragon. The black iron sign would clank in the wind, and gave his inn its new name, the Clanking Dragon.[1]

In 196 AC, when Long Jon's son was an old man, the Blackfyre Rebellion broke out. Lord Darry, who was a fierce Targaryen supporter, saw the inn's sign and thought it resembled the coat of arms of the rebels (a three-headed black dragon on a red field), so he cut it down and hacked it to pieces.[1]
