Born in {{Date|289}}<ref name=Calculation /> at [[Winterfell]],{{Ref|AWOIAF|Arya Stark}} Arya is the youngest daughter and third child of Lord [[Eddard Stark]], the head of [[House Stark]] and [[Warden of the North]], and Lady [[Catelyn Stark|Catelyn Tully]].{{Ref|AGOT|Appendix}}{{Ref|TWOIAF|Appendix: Stark Lineage}} Arya has an older sister, [[Sansa Stark|Sansa]],{{Ref|AGOT|5}} an older brother, [[Robb Stark|Robb]], and two younger brothers, [[Bran Stark|Bran]] and [[Rickon Stark|Rickon]]. She also has an older [[bastard]] half-brother, [[Jon Snow]].{{Ref|AGOT|Appendix}}

Arya has spent her entire life at Winterfell, though she did accompany her father on two occasions to [[White Harbor]].{{Ref|AFFC|22}} Arya has been tutored by Septa [[Mordane]] in the womanly arts (including needlework),{{Ref|AGOT|7}} and received lessons from Maester [[Luwin]] as well.{{Ref|AFFC|6}} Arya was also taught to ride a horse, but due to being called "Arya Horseface" by [[Jeyne Poole]] because of her long face, she could not enjoy the fact that riding horses was one of the few things she was better at than her older sister.{{Ref|AGOT|7}} The [[House Stark guards]] call her "Arya Underfoot".{{Ref|AGOT|22}}{{ref|ACOK|47}}

[[Jon Snow]], having covered himself with flour to appear as a ghost, once tried to scare his younger siblings in the [[crypt of Winterfell]]. While Sansa and Bran were frightened, Arya instead punched her half-brother.{{ref|AGOT|50}}

Lord Eddard often eats in the same hall as his staff, and always keeps a seat next to him reserved, inviting a different servant or advisor to dine with him each night. Arya loves listening to their stories.{{Ref|AGOT|22}}
