Brandon Stark son of Bennard

Bennard Stark had ruled the North throughout the years his nephew Cregan remained underage, and Brandon grew up as one of that regent's sons. When Cregan turned sixteen in 124 AC and came of age, Bennard was slow to hand over power, and the bond between uncle and nephew kept souring.

Matters came to a head in 126 AC, when Cregan rose against his uncle and seized rule of the North by force. Bennard was thrown into confinement along with his three sons, Brandon among them, ending whatever part he had held in governing the region.
