House Umber: Broken Chains

House Umber: Broken Chains

Author: History of Westeros July 28, 2025 Duration: 2:26:08

House Umber produces unusually large humans, so large that there might be some giant’s blood in their distant ancestry. The Greatjon was King Robb Stark’s most loyal Lord… and his Kingmaker. If he lives up to the Umber sigil - a giant breaking its chains - watch out Lannisters and Freys. But House Umber also has a dark side, both in their political dealings and their connection to the Old Gods. Join us for a deep dive into the history and future of the house that lies farther north than any other.
