Location: The North
Motto: "The Sun of Winter"
Sigil: White sunburst on black
Major members:

• Lord Harrion Karstark, the current head of House Karstark
• Lord Rickard Karstark, the former head of House Karstark — Deceased

Why They Matter:
House Karstark can actually trace its lineage back to House Stark itself and eventually became its own house that existed separate but loyal to the Starks. Members become disillusioned with Robb Stark when he executes Lord Rickard Karstark during season three and had pledged their support to House Bolton.
