Harwin, now Ser Harwin of Winterfell, is a character in the the A Song of Ice and Fire novel series. He is a former member of the household guard at Winterfell. He is the son of Hullen, the Master of Horse.
Harwin and his father are among the household guard that accompany Eddard Stark south to King's Landing when Robert Baratheon names him Hand of the King.
“He always said he'd die in a stable, but we all thought some bad-tempered stallion would be his death, not a pack of lions.”
―Harwin after learning from Arya about his father's death in King's Landing, during Ned Stark's arrest.
“Arya: [staring at him full of hurt] I thought you were my father's man. Harwin: Lord Eddard's dead, milady. I belong to the lightning lord now, and to my brothers. Arya: What brothers? Harwin:Anguy, Lem, Tom o' Sevens, Jack and Greenbeard, all of them. We mean your brother Robb no ill, milady... but it's not him we fight for. He has an army all his own, and many a great lord to bend the knee. The smallfolk have only us.”
