Character name: Jon Snow
Character source: Westeros/Game of Thrones Universe (TV show)/A Song of Ice and Fire (book series) universe.
Character history:
(In this incantation of Jon, it's important to note that the popular fan theory of R+L=J is canon. This means that Jon is actually the son of Lyanna Stark and Rhaegar Targaryen, rather than the son of Ned Stark as he is presented.)
Jon Snow was born a lie. A secret to be kept. In the Tower of Joy, Lyanna Stark layed dying in a bed of blood, holding a newborn babe close to her in her arms. Her brother, Eddard would soon rush in, grief-stricken almost immediately at the sight of his fatally wounded sister. Lyanna only silently passed the child to him, gently placing her hand in his.
"Promise me, Ned."
And indeed, Ned Stark did keep his promise. Bringing the child home to Winterfell, he presented him to the world as his illegitimate son, though this was far from the truth. Jon was born the child of Lyanna Stark and Rhaegar Targaryen, giving him the blood of the dragon and the wolf both. His Targaryen heritage was to kept secret by Ned, though, as apart of his promise to Lyanna. If the world knew the babe had Targaryen blood in him, it was no doubt that the new king Robert would seek some form of retribution. Some things were best kept a secret to the grave, Ned agreed.
(For the sake of convenience, the wiki link where the rest of Jon's history can be read is posted below. He'd be "snatched" by Omni after his supposed "death" at the hands of his own Nights Watch brothers.)
