With Robb Starks departure, the day-to-day rule of the North fell to Ser Rodrik Cassel and Maester Luwin, acting with Bran's voice. With Ser Rodrik's departure to deal with Ramsay Snow and the fight over the Hornwood inheritance, the governance fell completely on his shoulders. After Theon Greyjoy captured Winterfell, he continued to serve as Maester. Maester Luwin was stabbed and run down during the sack of Winterfell by Bolton men. As he lay dying by the godswood, Luwin instructed Osha to split Bran and Rickon Stark up. He was given the gift of mercy by Osha.

He was a small grey man with grey eyes and hair. He had a robe of grey wool with voluminous sleeves. In the sleeves were sewn pockets, from which Maester Luwin was always drawing things.[3] His maester's collar was a simple choker.[4] He was an untidy man. He was one of the few maesters who bothered to study for the Valyrian steel link.[5]
