Bran the Builder 

The founder of House Stark, and by some accounts the son of Brandon of the Bloody Blade and a descendent of Garth Greenhand. Unlike his father, he worked with the children of the forest- by some accounts learning the True Tongue for them. His greatest legacy is to the North- building the Wall, Winterfell and giving the Nights Watch Brandon’s Gift- a great stretch of land. His influence is felt in the South too- helping build Hightower in the Reach and Storms End for Durran Godsgrief

Durran Godsgrief and Elenei

The first Storm King and his Queen- the daughter of two gods- whose love was forbidden. Despite the storms sent to punish them, she refused to leave her mortal husband.  Six keeps they built and six were destroyed. The seventh- Storms End- was able to withstand the storms- some say due to the involvement of a young Northman named Bran. Elenei’s immortal grace and the pride of Durran’s line was passed down among the Storm Kings of House Durrandon and among their Baratheon descendants.
