Ulmer is a ranger of the Night's Watch. He is a former member of the Kingswood Brotherhood. He is stooped with a grey beard.[1]

History

He was once an outlaw and member of the Kingswood Brotherhood. While a member of the Brotherhood, according to Ulmer he once put an arrow through the hand of Lord Commander Gerold Hightower, the White Bull, in order to steal a kiss from a Dornish princess, most likely Elia Martell. He also stole her jewels and a chest of coins.[2] After the destruction of the Brotherhood, he was sent to the Wall.

Recent Events

A Storm of Swords

Ulmer is part of the force that left Castle Black and the Shadow Tower in search of Benjen Stark and Mance Rayder. He survives the Battle of the Fist of the First Men and is among the men who made it back to Craster's Keep. He is one of the few survivors who made it all the way back to Castle Black.[3]

After the election of Jon Snow as the new Lord Commander of the Night's Watch Ulmer bends his knee for Jon.[4] Jon later orders that the entire garrison has to practice using the bow under the guidance of Ulmer.[5]

A Dance with Dragons

While discussing his archery practice under Ulmer's guidance Samwell Tarly mentions to Jon Snow that he likes Ulmer's stories and that someone needs to write them down and put them in a book. Jon says that Sam will do it, there is parchment and ink at the Citadel, as well as longbows.
