Appearance and Character

Wayn is considered by many to be quite tall, as more often than not, he stands at least a head over most men. He was always of a more stockier build than his other brothers, and a young life of constant training only pushed the difference in build further. By the time Wayn reached his teenage years, he'd already grown as strong as many men of Ramsgate.

His long, dark brown hair was almost always kept pulled back.

As most Northern men, Wayn's wardrobe consisted nearly entirely of muted colored, fully practical clothing. Wayn scoffed at the "fat, lazy" men of the South and all of their thin, extravagant clothing, with their ladies in over-the-top silk dresses and skirts. It was not until his wife, Kyra, got a hold of his wardrobe did his clothing feature more than just leathers and furs.

Compared to his brothers and other past Woolfields, Wayn was never satisfied with his lot in life. Deep down, he always feels an ambition burning inside to push himself and his house further and further. Wayn is a fiercely proud man, and even the slightest hint of an insult to his name will push him into a near uncontrollable rage. In true Northern fashion, he feels a particular distaste for any person that lives below the Neck.

History

Early Life

Wayn was born in the years following the harsh Scarlet Winter, during the recuperation of the Woolfield's lands after the scarring cold. The House's holdings were never the richest, the winter hit them economically harder than most other Northern lands. Generations of lazy and inept Woolfield rulers only set them up to fall harder due to the fierce winter. By the time Wayn was brought into the world, Ramsgate was only just seeing a resurgence in reputation and power.

As the norm of all Woolfield boys since the generation before Torghen, Wayn was raised with extravagant wealth and spoiling that drained nearly all of Ramsgate's natural resources and potential wealth. Thankfully for the future of his House, Wayn grew increasingly annoyed and spiteful of his family's disgraceful and lazy ways. Completely unlike his other male family members, Wayn was not content to simply sit around and grow fat with content. The boy found himself at home in the training yards with his house's men-at-arms as soon as he grew big enough to wield a sword.

Wayn's spent what little time he had away from the training yards or out in the countryside hunting, the young boy studied and read all he could find about the great heroes and knights of old. He began dreaming and grew increasingly infatuated with the grandiose feats these heroes accomplished in their lifetimes, and Wayn made it his life goal to have his name recorded in the history books as a great Northern warrior. By his 10th name day, Wayn had already earn the ire and disappointment from his father from his popular and outspoken rejection of what Wayn considered to be the Woolfield's dishonorable and fattening ways. Despite this, gossip spread along the Woolfield lands that Wayn should be the heir to Ramsgate over his older brother Brandon, causing Brandon to nearly convince Torghen to disown Wayn and force him to take the Black.

Luckily for Wayn, his younger brother, Donnel, felt more inclined towards Wayn's view of the world, and followed his older brother around like a shadow. For Wayne, Donnel was a source of compassion and some sort of familial bond despite how soured his relationship grew with the other Woolfields. The two brothers seemed nearly inseparable at all times, despite Donnel's love for the more secretive and intriguing characters of Westeros' history.

Teenage Years

Wayn accepted the fact that Brandon was, and always will be, the heir to Ramsgate, and Wayn will simply be known as the second son unless he found some way to make a name for himself otherwise. The young lad spent all of his spare time and energy learning how to wield the family's ancestral great sword, Ram's Horn, so he could become a fighter well-known enough to bring some kind of honor to his family name.

In a move that Torghen hoped would bring humility and shame, while further keeping Wayn's chances of his ambitions succeeding, the Lord of Ramsgate met with a very prominent merchant, Maric, from the nearby city of Fleecemarket to arrange a secret marriage. Maric had a daughter, Kyra, two years older than Wayn, and the two men decided to betroth their children together. The two men stood to benefit in someway with the betrothal: Torghen not only would see through his attempt to shame his ambitious son, but also secure a very lucrative trade partnership, while Maric would stand to move up the ranks in a way that most common folk could only dream of.

On Wayn's fifteenth name-day, in the year 432 AC, Wayn married Kyra in Ramsgate's Godswood. The young Wayn attempted to back out from the wedding, using every excuse he could think of to escape his dreaded future. Torghen, however, forced Wayn through the marriage with threats to send his son to the Black should he not go through with it.

Wayn and Kyra's marriage went about as smoothly as one could possibly ever expect. The two hardly spent any time around each other unless forced to during official occasions, and when they were actually together, it was beyond obvious Wayn held absolutely no affection towards Kyra. As if Torghen couldn't infuriate Wayn any more, during the year 434 when the Northerners got pulled into the Second Hammer Uprising, the Lord of Ramsgate chose to leave behind Wayn and only brought Brandon along with the rest of the Woolfield levies to fight the rebels.

Wayn, as expected, was beyond furious at Torghen's latest move to humiliate and belittle the young boy. It seemed, however, that his wedding with Kyra was finally beginning to stabilize his wild emotions. Instead of lashing out in anger towards everyone and everything Wayn came in contact with, he decided more often than not to spend time with Kyra. After an awkward and tense two years together, the couple looked like they were actually beginning to appreciate each other more. They could be found together in villages and towns around his lands, or hunting the Sheepshead Hills. Wayn even found himself discovering the hidden comfort to be had taming wild animals.

To the maester's surprise as well, Wayn even started to at least attempt to learn about how to rule over a holding. Despite the maester's best efforts, not much information stuck to Wayn. It seemed only like the old teachers could get through to Wayn was how to operate farms and other agriculture operations. Wayn still put every effort into learning how to be a Lord; instead of fuming in frustrations, Wayn decided to learn to be the best ruler Ramsgate could ever hope for.

Sudden Lordship

Torghen leaving Wayn behind at Ramsgate to fight in the Riverlands seemed like an insult and a slight at the time, but the Gods had a different idea. Somber news reached Ramsgate: The Woolfields took part in the Siege of Oldstones, and unfortunately the Woolfield levies took the brunt of a ruthless attack. Torghen, Brandon, and Wayn's uncle, Wylis, along with numerous other Ramsgate soldiers perished.

Before he could process the news, Wayn was pushed into a situation that he never thought he'd find himself in: Wayn was now the Lord of Ramsgate. All of those ambitious dreams that Wayn held when he was a younger lad all came flooding back. Now, free from his jealous family member's sabotaging and supported now by a wife that he grew to love, Wayn could finally begin to push to renew the Woolfield's tarnished name and restore the family's name to what it once was.

Wayn and Kyra had their first daughter, Wylla in 435 AC, followed a mere year later with their son, Wendyl.

Wayn's first major test as lord came in the year 438 AC when the wildlings invaded past the Wall and into the North. The new Lord of Ramsgate called all of the Woolfield levies to answer Lady Berena's call to arms and soon he found himself head of his troops in the center of the Northern line. Wayn realized during the fighting that his house's troops were woefully under equipped and armed compared to other Northern houses.

After his return, Wayn worked quickly to fix what issues he found during the fighting: first he banished his uncle, Rodrick, to take the Black, as the older Woolfield refused to answer the call to arms, and pushed his house's blacksmiths to restore his men's arms and armour.

With war looming once more along the horizon, Wayn could only hope to further propel his family into fame and prosperity.
