back to our origin story of the beginnings

there were the giants

the Children weren’t the sole occupants of Westeros during the Dawn Age. Tribes of massive Giants, bulky humanoids that grew to 12 feet tall also lived there. And like the Children, they were spread out in groups across all of Westeros. The Children and the Giants occasionally fought each other over territory, but largely maintained a peace that lasted even after the arrival of the First Men.

Humans were less able to get along with Giants, however, and between both the Andals and the First Men, the Giants were slowly wiped out over the course of thousands of years. Technologically stagnant — even more than the Children — Giants were forced out of their settlements all over Westeros by humans (the descendants of what would become House Baratheon began the push from the Stormlands in the south), moving further and further north, until they resettled beyond the Wall, distant and untrustworthy of Humankind.

By the time of Mance Rayder’s rule over the Wildlings as King Beyond the Wall, the remaining Giants — believed to only be around a few hundred in number — had allied with the Wildlings and integrated themselves as part of their society, fighting alongside them against both the Night’s Watch and the Others.

The Children and the Giants represent a more peaceful side of Westeros’ fantastical past.

But thousands of years after the First Men and the Children of the Forest signed the Pact, a long, harsh winter brought about an event that would be called The Long Night, a Winter season that lasted for an entire generation, and brought with it an invasion of the undead from the far northern reaches of Westeros. They descended upon the North, and even further south into Westeros.

No one knows how the Others came about — whether they were native to Westeros, or a group of humans that settled in the North that became corrupted by powerful magic. With pale blue skin impervious to fire and most materials, the Others could raise slain foes as new Wights to join their armies. The Others also brought bizarre creatures not seen in any other part of Westeros with them, from decaying mammoths to horrifying giant ice spiders that they used as mounts and as battle animals.

The creatures swept across Westeros during the Long Night, killing untold numbers of Children and First Men, and nearly driving both species to extinction. However, the Children discovered that the Others could be defeated by their obsidian weaponry, known as “dragonglass,” and began to fight back, eventually driving the Others back to the far North and defeating them at the Battle for the Dawn.

What few Others remained were then trapped in the North by the hero Brandon the Builder (who went on to found House Stark), who led the efforts of the First Men, Children and Giants to build the magically-enhanced Wall, trapping the Others in the upper reaches of the continent. Once the wall was built, the Night’s Watch was established to guard it, and to fight back any attempts by the Others.

The order was almost destroyed shortly after its founding however — the 13th commander of the Night’s Watch allegedly fell in love with a Female Other, eventually marrying her and using her abilities to enthrall the Night’s Watch. The Commander, now known as the Night King, used the Watch and the Others to try and take over the North, committing countless atrocities until he was eventually overwhelmed and defeated. The Watch, so ashamed of their failure to safeguard the realm, chose to strike the Commander’s name and record from their history books, forbidding anyone to speak of his name ever again.



things to know after reading that, we later learnt that the others are a creation of the night king and the night king was created by the children of the forest to fight humans for them, after men build to wall to stop the advancement of white walkers, the night king went on the attack against chilren of the forest and wildings

houses and their history


House Targaryen

Half the Targaryens went mad, didn't they? What's the saying? 'Every time a Targaryen is born the gods flip a coin.'"
―Cersei Lannister to Tyrion Lannister[src]

House Targaryen banner

The banner of House Targaryen of Dragonstone, the former royal house of Westeros, now in exile.

House Targaryen of Dragonstone is a Great House of Westeros and was the ruling royal House of the Seven Kingdoms for three centuries since it conquered and unified the realm, before it was deposed during Robert's Rebellion and House Baratheon replaced it as the new royal House. The two surviving Targaryens fled into exile to the Free Cities of Essos across the Narrow Sea. Currently based on Dragonstone off of the eastern coast of Westeros, House Targaryen seeks to retake the Seven Kingdoms from House Lannister, who formally replaced House Baratheon as the royal House following the destruction of the Great Sept of Baelor.

House Targaryen's sigil is a three-headed red dragon on a black background, and their house words are "Fire and Blood."

Background

Once a noble family of the vast Valyrian Freehold, an empire spanning most of the eastern continent, the Targaryens were given control of the island of Dragonstone in the Narrow Sea some centuries ago. After the obliteration of Valyria in the Doom, the Targaryens launched a devastating invasion of Westeros using three dragons to spearhead their attack. In a short period of time, six of the seven formerly independent kingdoms had surrendered to the Targaryen leader, King Aegon I, unifying the continent under his rule. The last hold-out, Dorne, joined the kingdom through a political and marriage alliance some two centuries later.

During the increasingly erratic reign of King Aerys II, his son Rhaegar was said to have kidnapped Lyanna Stark of Winterfell for unknown reasons. When Lyanna's brother Brandon protested, Aerys responded by having both him and his father Rickard Stark arrested and executed. This sparked a massive uprising led by Eddard Stark, Robert Baratheon and Jon Arryn. At the end of this war, Aerys and Rhaegar were dead and the Targaryen power-base in Westeros destroyed. Aerys's youngest children, Viserys and Daenerys, were taken by Targaryen loyalists into exile in the Free Cities of the East. Unknown to most, however, Rhaegar had his marriage with Elia Martell annulled and remarried Lyanna, with whom he also had a son, Jon Snow. As Lyanna lay dying after giving birth to her son, she pleaded with her brother Eddard to keep her baby safe from Robert, who surely would want the baby dead due to his immense hatred for Rhaegar and promise to wipe out the Targaryen bloodline. She reveals her son's name is 'Aegon Targaryen'. To protect his sister's son from Robert, Eddard takes his infant nephew back with him to Winterfell, names him 'Jon',[3] and claims him as his illegitimate son, raising Jon as his own child alongside his trueborn children.[1] The child would become Jon Snow and grows up with the maternal side of his family.

Generations of compound inbreeding have preserved in the Targaryen bloodline the classic Valyrian features of silver-white (platinum blonde) hair, and very fair, pale skin. Allegedly, this also preserved in their bloodline the ability to successfully bond with and ride dragons. They also seem to be somewhat more tolerant of extreme heat and high temperatures than other people, though they are by no means invulnerable to fire – or at least, not all of them. Unfortunately, some believe that this practice of inbreeding has also caused the trait of insanity to plague House Targaryen; though some members are known to be perfectly normal psychologically-speaking, other Targaryens throughout history have displayed bizarre, erratic and sometimes violent behavior, succumbing to the so-called 'Targaryen madness'.

in the beginning, Before Men, There Were Children

The humans who inhabit Westeros in Game of Thrones aren’t descendants of an original native species, but of immigrants that came to the continent 12,000 years prior in what is now known as the Dawn Age. Before humans came along, Westeros was sparsely populated – but one of the few races that did call it home was the diminutive species dubbed “Children of the Forest”.

Small, humanoid creatures with dark skin and oversized eyes, the Children formed their disparate societies across the forests of Westeros (hence their name). Devout followers of what would come to be known as the Old Gods, the Children were responsible for the first Weirwoods, carving faces into the trees of their homes in the belief that the Gods could watch over them through the sculptures. Some Children also had latent magical abilities. Children were commonly born with dark eyes, but any born with Green eyes developed a sort of precognition — prophetic visions and dreams. Children with this talent became leading figures in the Children’s societies.

It wasn’t to last though. When humans traveled to Westeros for the first time, from across the Narrow Sea and Essos, they began settling and clearing areas for settlements by burning the Weirwoods created by the Children, inciting a war between the two species.
https://i.pinimg.com/originals/f6/e0/36/f6e036aae3315849c844d595d570f651.jpg

The Children were technologically outmatched by the First Men (who had access to Bronze weaponry and armor, and could bring reinforcements by sea) and were almost wiped out in the fighting — before they negotiated an agreement to share Westeros with the First Men, called the Pact. The Pact bought about a time of peace and understanding between the two races, (and even inducted many humans into the Old Gods’ faith). And this ushered in the end of the Dawn Age and a new era dubbed the Age of Heroes.


It wouldn’t last forever, however. When the Andals invaded Westeros, 4,000 years after the signing of the Pact, they swarmed the First Men and the Children’s combined forces, burning the weirwood forests as they swept across the Seven Kingdoms. Only the North resisted, which led to the remaining Children, already naturally few in number and vastly reduced by the Andals, to retreat into the North and beyond the Wall (more on that later), to the frozen upper regions of the continent.

Most of Westeros believes the Children have died off entirely, but as Bran Stark learns during his pilgrimage beyond the Wall, that’s not the case.


things to know after reading that, the children of the forest created the white walkers to fight humans for them

The Night King was created by the Children of the Forest during the Wars of the First Men and the Children of the Forest and has been alive for about 8,000 years. It can be assumed the magic that transformed him also gave him his longevity.
