Jon Snow (The Maester Knight)

House Stark (By Raising)
Order Of Maesters (Formerly, Released)

**Jon Pendragon**, born **Aemon Targaryen,** is the son of Lyanna Stark and Rhaegar Targaryen, the late Prince of Dragonstone. From infancy, Jon is presented as the bastard son of Lord Eddard Stark, Lyanna's brother, and raised alongside Eddard's lawful children at Winterfell. Jon's true parentage is kept secret from everyone, including Jon himself, in order to protect him from those that sought the complete annihilation of House Targaryen.

In this story, rather than going to the wall, Jon chooses instead to go to the Citadel, becoming a Maester. After being sent to investigate a strange phenomenon on the Stepstones, Jon is magically whisked away to strange lands, where he finds himself joining the quest of Thorin Oakenshield to retake the lonely mountain, join Brom and Eragon in their pursuit of the Ra'zac leading to him being involved in the war between the Varden and The Broddring Empire, meeting a certain Witcher in time to help him save his daughter from the Wild Hunt and her own father (Who bares a strike resemblance to a certain someone from Westeros), and returning to middle earth to join the Fellowship in their quest to destroy the one ring. After returning to Westeros, Jon is able to bargain his way out of his oaths to the Citadel (Using the head of Smaug, which he had been gifted upon returning to Westeros, and Jon knows the Maesters would be interested in studying) and make use of the massive fortune he gained from the Lonely Mountain. Jon is knighted by Robert (Who of course finds the entire situation hilarious), and becomes a popular tourney knight, becoming known as the "Maester Knight" by the common folk, both due to his reputation as well as his choice to proudly wear his former chain as a belt around his waist (Much to aggravation of many a Maester who sees it).
