House Cassel

House Cassel of the Crossing is a Major House of the North sworn to House Stark of Winterfell. They are Lords of the Crossing. Their Sigil are ten white red wolves heads on a dark and silver grey background. Their Words are “Raised By Wolves”. The current Head of House is Lord Edwyn Cassel.

The Cassels for many centuries were a family of Knights who served House Stark of Winterfell as guardsmen or master-at-arms, fiercely loyal and dedicated in their duty to their liege lords. During the War of the Usurper, they were greatly rewarded by House Targaryen of Dragonstone for their rescuing of Princess Shaena Targaryen from the extinct House Frey of the Crossing and were thus granted nobility and the grand castle as payment.
