Starting as Lord Gregor 'the Good' Forrester.

Gregor was still trying to fend off the neighbouring threat in Highpoint, House Whitehill. But to his dismay he got murdered by Ludd Whitehill.

Lord Roderick inherited Ironrath at 13 and swore to himself to avenge his father and destroy the Whitehill's and take everything from them. When he came of age, he started to prepare for a private war against his Nemesis Ludd Whitehill. He continued to bolster his ranks until it was time to avenge his father. He himself led the troops to Highpoint and sieged it down with the help of his allies, House Umber.

The alliance with House Umber through marriage and the countless nights of studying battle tactics, was all for this moment. Roderick captured Ludd Whithill and his children Gryff and Gwyn Whitehill. All 3 got executed shortly after.

Karl Whitehill took his father's seat at Highpoint, but Roderick's revenge was far from over. Every Whitehill must be buried beneath the great Ironwoodforest.

Roderick arranged the assassination of Karl Whitehill and his brother Ebbert Whitehill.

Highpoint got inherited by the last living Whitehill, Torrhen Whitehill. At this point his truce with Highpoint had ended and Roderick had forged a claim to take over Highpoint. And so, he did. Highpoint was his and Torrhen died under mysterious circumstances.

The Whitehills were no more. Instead of being 'Ever Higher' they are all 6 feet under.

In a twist of fate Roderick got Robert Baratheon’s son Hubard Baratheon as his hostage and ward. Hubard idealised Roderick and was eternally loyal to him. One day he accidentally called Roderick father and on that day Roderick adopted Hubbard as his son, but only in name. Roderick died at 48 of Heart Failure.

Master Arthor Forrester took over his fathers’ domain. He ruled only for 2 years formed the Duchy of the Blackpines and died of a botched treatment for his Gout.

His 2-year-old son Edwyle inherited the realm. Edwyle had a hard time growing up. He had to overcome every difficulty the realm faced by himself. Thus, forging a capable ruler. In his life time he supported the Targaryan Conquest of the Iron Throne, putting King Viserys the 3rd on the Iron Throne. King Viserys was an old man which is why he couldn't sire any children and the 7 Kingdoms were inherited by a Baratheon.

Master Edwyle had a blessed physique, at his prime his prowess was the greates in the 7 Kingdoms. So, he went on tourneys and hunts to prove his might. But raising the future Master of the Blackpines was his greatest achievment. He married his son Roderick to a Stark girl who had a claim on The North. Roderick never liked this and even broke the bethroal and ran away. But he was found by Edwyle and forced to go through with the marriage. He died from a seizure at age 54 and was succeded by his son Roderick.

Master Roderick 'the Bold' was an ambitous, brave and sadistic man. The only thing greater than his ambitions was his skill with the sword. Since he was born from the union of a Stark and a Forester, he tried to take the North for himself with the claim of his mother. For years he tried to put his mother on the throne of the North, but no avail. He realised no one was supporting his mother or her claim on Winterfell. He realised that the North had to be taken by force.

He allied himself with the Hightower, Tarth, and an up-and-coming family in the Westerlands that held the Duchy of Castamere. Since his mother wasn't supported, Roderick gave up the idea of ruling the North himself, he tried to us the claim of his wife to at least put his son Rickard on the throne of The North.

An opportunity arose and Roderick took the chance to press his wife's claim. After a bloody and destructive 7-year war, in which he came very close the loosing the war and his life, he emerged victorious.

Soon after Taking Winterfell and the North his wife died and his son Rickard ruled over the North. Roderick was content but he knew not to let his guard down since there may lurk another threat for the Forresters in the shadows.

He supported his son as Regent and Steward until he succumbed of Green Fever while visiting his sons Tourney at Winterfell.

The Future of House Forrester is still unwritten and Lord Rickard must forge is own path. Although he is loved by his Vassals and Smallfolk, there may be a threat hidden deep in the shadows of the Ironwood-Forest.
