Artos Stark, also known as Artos the Implacable, was a member of House Stark, the third son of Lord Beron Stark and Lady Lorra Royce.[4] Although he was never Lord of Winterfell, he has a statue in the crypts beneath Winterfell.[1]
History
When King-Beyond-the-Wall Raymun Redbeard went over the Wall, Lord Willam Stark called his banners and marched north. Artos was among those who went with him. During the battle at Long Lake, Willam was killed. Artos slew Raymun during the battle, ending the wildling threat. The Night's Watch arrived too late to take part in the battle and for their tardiness, Artos ordered them to dispose of the dead.[2]
Family
Artos was married to Lysara Karstark and had twin sons, Brandon and Benjen Stark.[4]
