Ghost is one of the six Direwolf cubs that the Starks found in the woods before the arrival of King Robert and his court at Winterfell. He is an albino and is white with red eyes. He is an intelligent and quickly maturing animal.

In the BooksEdit

• In A Game of Thrones, the House Stark children find Ghost and his littermates after their mother was killed by a stag. Jon Snow suggests that he should take Ghost since they are both outcasts in their own way: he is a bastard, and Ghost is an albino. Jon Snow later takes Ghost to the Wall when he joins the Night's Watch.

• In A Clash of Kings, Jon Snow begins to enter Ghost's body through a warg bond.

• In A Storm of Swords, Jon Snow sends Ghost back to Castle Black. When Jon returns he and Ghost are reunited.

• In A Dance with Dragons, Ghost can sense the presence of his siblings, specifically Nymeria, who has come to lead a wolf pack on her own. Ghost later senses the betrayal of the Night's Watch but is unable to help Jon Snow when he is stabbed.
