A Dance with Dragons

Leathers is the leader of a group of wildlings that encounters Jon Snow and his party that went into the Haunted Forest in order for the recruits to take their oath before the weirwood grove. He and Jon talked to avoid a fight and Leather negotiates for his band, including the giant, Wun Weg Wun Dar Wun, to cross the Wall. He then joins the Night's Watch. Jon Snow later appointed Leathers master-at-arms at Castle Black over the objection of Bowen Marsh. Leathers serves as a translator for the giant and Jon Snow. He has been teaching Jon some of the Old Tongue so Jon can talk to the giants.

The recruits of the Night's Watch are terrified of their new master-of-arms but Jon thinks that is a good thing as they will need to familiarize themselves with that emotion and overcome it when the Others come.

Leather swore his Night's Watch vows in the same grove of weirwoods of the Haunted Forest where Jon Snow and Samwell Tarly swore theirs. With him were fellow wildling Jax and four other recruits that followed the Old Gods. He was assigned as a ranger.[1]
