Appearance and Character

Recent Events

A Clash of Kings

Ebben is part of the one-hundred men reinforcements from the Shadow Tower to arrive at the Fist of the First Men.[5] Before reaching the Fist, the Shadow Tower group was attacked by wildlings. Ebben questions the survivor and learns that the wildlings have gathered in search of a great power in the Frostfangs, though his interrogation was too harsh and the prisoner dies.[5]

Ebben is later chosen by Qhorin Halfhand alongside Stonesnake, Dalbridge and Jon Snow to scout the Skirling Pass to search for the wildlings.[5]

After the death of Squire Dalbridge, Ebben is sent on with the remaining horses to ride as fast as he can to Lord Commander Jeor Mormont.

He is killed by a wildling scouting party commanded by Rattleshirt, his head kept as a prize and shown to Jon later. Rattleshirt notes he died bravely.[6]
