History Edit

Early Years: Edit

Ethan Glover was born in the early moons of 41 AC. He was the first born son in his father's line and because of this was trained to be the perfect solider for the North. Even at a young age Ethan showed that he was strong of body and mind. He could be found studying advanced military tactics as young as at the age of seven.

As his siblings were born Ethan found himself thrust into the role of protector and leader helping to engrave the qualities of a strong leader into his very being.

A Home Invaded: Edit

In the years leading up to 52 AC the rumors of a Magnar of Thenn who was declaring himself not only the God-King of Thenn but also King Beyond the Wall began to fill the taverns and inns of the North. It was said he referred to himself as the Harbinger and was convinced he was the representative of the Old Gods' will. This was not the first time news of Wildlings stirring North of the Wall had been heard and because of this they were taken lightly among the Nobles.

Then came the fateful night when the Magnar lead a band of Wildlings south through the Bay of Ice where they eventually made landfall in the Wolfswood. It was from this point that he and his forces attacked an unsuspecting Deepwood Motte. The forces lead by Master Galbart were able to fight off the Wildlings but not before many smallfolk were killed and Lawbringer, the Glover ancestral greatsword was taken.

Banners Are Called: Edit

In 53 AC Ethan attended the council meeting in Winterfell with his father. Ethan had always been critical of his father after the attack blaming his lack of military prowess as the cause of it. This only worsened when news came the Wildlings had burned the Keep on Bear Island on their return trip North. During the council it was spoken of the lack of aid from the Crown even though it had been promised. After much debate if was decided to forgo waiting on forces from the Crown and to have the North march to the Wall to face Magnar Thenn and his forces.

Battle Beyond the Wall: Edit

Ethan was only three and ten when the men of the North marched to Castle Black. His father had forbidden him from joining stating his place was in Deepwood Motte with his mother and siblings. Ethan disobeyed this request and soon found himself among the fifty thousand men who marched under the Wall.

The battle itself was a blur, the Wildlings fought like men possessed and Ethan stayed close to his father during the initial bouts. Ethan soon saw the man who called himself the Harbinger on the field. A giant of a man he wielded Lawbringer as he carved his way through the battlefield. The Magnar found Lord Stark and the two began their dance. It was clear to Ethan very quickly that the Magnar was a force to be feared and with horror he watched as Lord Stark was slain. Ethan's father dropped to his knees at the shame of his Lord dying at the edge of his family's blade. Time slowed and the Magnar closed in on Master Glover, he raised his sword to finish the now broken man but his strike was interrupted by Ethan's blade. Ethan and the Harbinger began their duel and with a mixture of skill and pure luck Ethan found an opening and ended the life of the Magnar of Thenn. The battle was won and they returned home.

The Bloodless Rebellion: Edit

Relations with the Crown worsened after the Battle at the Wall. The newly appointed Lord Alaric Stark voiced his displeasure with how the North had been treated and the disrespect that the King had bestowed House Stark during the late Lord Stark's funeral. Ethan watched first hand as the fire inside Alaric continued to grow. This caused little surprise to Ethan when the letter came from Winterfell. Lord Alaric had declared independence for the North and for his council to convene once again.

The Rebellion itself was not what they thought it would be. The South was facing a famine that had ravaged its supplies. This deterred the Crown from mounting against the North. Ethan had marched down to Moat Cailin, as his father was to sick to do so himself. He remained here until word reached them that the Crown backed down and acknowledged they did not have the resources to fight a rebellion and deal with the the other issues it faced.

So Comes the Master:

In the year 60 AC and Ethan's ninth and twentieth year his father passed. The great man that Ethan had known had never been the same after the incident North of the Wall. The years leading up to his death Galbart had passed on many of his duties to Ethan. Now needing to act the Lord Ethan married the daughter of the current Lord of House Umber. He continued to spend time in Winterfell helping the newly crowned King run his realm, even accepting his new position as Winter's Justice.

Ethan's run as Master of House Glover was seen as a time of prosperity for Deepwood Motte. In 70 AC his first son Jason was born; followed by another son in 72 AC and a pair of twin daughters in 75 AC.

Winter of a Hundred Kings: Edit

That wasn't all that came in 75 AC. At the beginning of 75, blizzards began blowing stronger and more frequently than they had in the past. Soon crops withered and died and the people of Deepwood Motte began to starve. The North was caught unprepared for the sudden natural onslaught and thousands across the massive land froze to death in their hovels and castles. The weather cut travel and the shipping of good out completely. All the people of Deepwood Motte could do was settle in and wait it out.

The Winter of a Hundred Kings may have been a mighty blow to the North, but it also saved the North from a disaster that was affecting the rest of Westeros. The Dragonblight, a devastating sickness, ravaging the other realms could not survive in the North. The maesters reported no more than a few hundred casualties were from the disease and as the waning months of the deadly winter came to pass, the North was ready and able to secure its borders to keep the southern plague away.

The Wolfswood Ravagers: Edit

89 AC brought another plague North, this one starting in White Harbor. The plague didn't reach the Wolfswood for some time and this allowed Ethan to make the necessary precautions to battle against it. Sickness wasn't the major threat caused by the plague. 92 AC saw the last reports of the Curse, but also was the beginning of the raids in the Wolfswood. Malmur Stane, of the Islands of Skagos, felt the Curse was caused by the northmen abandoning the old ways of worshiping the Old Gods by giving the divine the human sacrifice they need.

Stane travelled from the Isle of Skagos to the Wolfswood, bringing with him a small band of followers who felt similar to the Skaggosi. Malmur’s group swelled to numbers of 50 to 60 followers while in the Wolfswood. Many of those House Glover's own smallfolk. Reports of kidnappings happening at all hours of the day and night and finding strange totems with disgusting and terrible shrines with human remains and body parts soon found their way to Ethan's hall forcing him to act. Ethan wrote to King Alaric and other Lords of the North but found himself alone in his fight against this fanatical group: the other Lords simply couldn’t spare the men to fight another battle, all still recovering from the Curse.

Widespread panic began spreading across the region beyond the Wolfswood. Malmur’s group never stayed in any one spot for long, evading the Ethan’s attempt to detain the group and before long the common people began spreading rumors that the fanatics numbered in the hundreds.Aid was finally sent when Torrhen, the Winter’s Shepherd, was killed in an ambush. Torrhen, was the religious leader of the North hoping to calm those in the area affected by the Ravagers, was mutilated and Malmur spread the former Winter’s Shepherd’s body parts across highly-visible areas, showing, in his mind, that his way is the correct way in the eyes of the Old Gods.

Theodan Stark, heir to the King, called what men he could to Winterfell and he formed his own party in response, most among them were Manderlys, Glovers, and Karstarks, with even the Lord Bolton himself along with Ethan's sons Jason and Brandon joining the militia. The group totaled in 60 to 70 in manpower and were determined to end this evil and allow the North to finally feel at peace. They scoured the Wolfswood for weeks, only finding a few number of Malmur’s group at any one time.

In the beginning months of 93 AC, Malmur Stane himself was found in the woods just north of Winterfell. The Stark host crashed upon Malmur’s group and slaughtered nearly every last one of them to the man. Malmur Stane’s neck met Ice, and the fanatics were no more.

The Twilight Years: Edit

Now in year 98 AC Ethan began to pass the torch of leadership to his son Jason. Focusing more on his position of Winter's Justice he was using his remaining years to serve his King to the best of his ability. He attended the Tourney of White Harbor and was present when King Alaric abstained the throne to his son. Upon learning of the attack on Karstark lands he ordered his son, Jason, to march of to help their allies. Ethan returned to Deepwood Motte were he order his second born son to march Glover men to help fight the pirates.

On the morning of the 6th day of the 7th moon of the year 98 AC, Ethan Glover passed in his sleep leaving his heir Jason Glover as the new Master of the house.
