Appearance and Character

Unlike his brother, Jon’s features take more after his mother and twin sister. He is less gaunt and angular, a mouth quick to smile and eyes often filled with mirth. He is an avid swordsman and rider, and it shows; he is lean, but his frame is corded with muscle.

Jon Arryn is by all accounts a cheerful and enthusiastic young man, both social and courteous. He is eager-to-please, a friendly man who looks to make friends with everyone. He is often flirtatious, taking advantage of his good looks and charm. He is obedient and dutiful, looking to do what is best for the Vale and the Arryn family, while keeping his family together. His marriage has brought out a sentimental side of him, a loyal and affectionate inclination going beyond the flirtations and trysts of youth. At the same time, his taming of Starfyre has awoken a hidden dragon burrowed deep in his heart, and has reminded him of the power a scion of House Arryn who carries the blood of dragons could wield.

History

Childhood and Youth

Jon Arryn and Alyssa Arryn were both just as the War in the Mountains had started once more, a fact that ensured that they were primarily raised by their mother Saera, with Osric being barely at home. The few times he returned, before the Massacre of the Dales in 422 AC, neither Jon nor Alyssa recognized him as their father, being more friendly with figures such as their uncles, Artys and Alesander Arryn.

Both Jon and Alyssa were bold children, with none of the bookish interests of their sister and brother. From the beginning they were climbing trees and exploring the Eyrie, curious about everything and anything.

At a young age Jon began training in combat, far more diligent than his older brother. Jon did not know Godric for long either, until he was sent off to foster with the Lord of Runestone. Jon became and adept study with the blade, and well used to riding his horse through the craggy foothills of the Vale. When his older sister died, Jon barely even understood what had happened.

Blue Winter

Jon was only 8 when the blue winter struck, but already tragedy had touched his life with the War in the Mountains. The Arryns, with the help of Robar Baratheon, tried to do as much as they could given the circumstances, but the suffering was too great. The high road was closed, and it was in this darkest time that Visenya Silvermoon and Baelor Targaryeon came to assist. Even at a young age, Jon marveled at the two Targaryeons. While his mother Saera was a dragonrider, she did not possess the same raw power that these two did, and Jon marveled at the beauty and grace of Visenya, and the upright visage of Baelor. While the Arryns were trying their best, it could not be doubted that Visenya's contribution was essential to the continued survival of their region. This was a fact that Osric and Seara were well aware of, treating Visenya to many heartfelt thanks, but something that Godric did not seem to take notice of.

Winterfell

It was in 428 AC, after winter had broke, that both Jon and Alyssa were separated and sent off to their respective fosterings. For the young twins, this was an unheard of idea, since they had been inseparable until now. With the escort of Osric, Alesander, and Abelar Arryn. With him travelled his sworn companion, Allard Egen, assigned to him by the Commander of the Winged Knights, Selwyn Waxley. Instead of trating his young ward as a burden, Allard Egen was one of Jon's premier trainers, acting in almost a fatherly role in many ways. Even years later, Jon still respects Allard Egen's advice and counsel.

At Winterfell, he squired under the Lord of Winterfell himself, learning the art of sword and lance from the master of arms of Winterfell himself. Jon Stark also occasionally assisted with his teachings, but Jon Stark was a busy man, still mourning the disappearance of his daughter.

It was in 430 AC when his time at Winterfell changed drastically as Berena Stark returned. Suddenly, Jon had a new mentor, and the atmosphere at Winterfell was markedly different, as the fierce Lady of Winterfell had returned. The North was an exciting region for Jon, many days riding out onto the frozen and cold plains, loooking through the Wolfswood, and sighting the mountain kingdoms of the clans from the foothills of their mountains. It was this Lady that Jon saw a fair amount of, before returning to the Eyrie in 433 AC. It is one of his greatest regrets that only a year later, Lord Jon Stark died at Fairmarket, and for many months, Jon lay awake, wondering if he could have helped had he been there.

The Massacre

435 AC was a huge year for each of the Arryns, though all processed it differently. Saera Targaryen's death, Osric Arryn's suicide, and the end of the peacetime they had enjoyed since the defeat of the mountain clans. Jon dealt with it in his own way; with Sharra gone and Godric becoming more and more withdrawn, Jon quickly tried to move in the opposite direction, helping as much as possible with the new tasks.

While Godric has isolated himself in the Gates of the Moon, Jon has been touring the Vale, stopping at the different holds and keeps for a few weeks and learning the people there. He has made fast friends with many of the young nobles in the Vale, his easy smile and quick wits make him a welcome companion.

Recent Events

In 438 AC, Jon was betrothed and wed to Tysane Lannister, Lady of the Rock, thereby becoming Lord of Casterly Rock - in name, at least. In the wake of the King's death, Jon traveled to Dragonstone while his Lady-Wife delved into the politics surrounding the Great Council. While there, with the aid of Jeyne Frey, managed to tame the wild dragon Starfyre. His triumphant return to Tysane - who had assumed him to have fallen - began a new chapter in their marriage, bringing a true and bountiful love into what had until then been mainly a union of cordial pleasantries interrupted with some frequency by lust and infatuation. Now with Starfyre to call upon, Jon finds himself a true power for the first time in his life, and he has begun to look upon his station as Lord as more than a merely formality.
