But again, Targs were insular. So to answer Josh's post, i don't think the Starks got their warging gift from the Targs. Either they inherited it from the First Men or from the CotF through some interbreeding. There were plenty of stories of magic in the Stark bloodline prior to the Targs

I don't agree with his point I was just answering his question.

The Starks very rarely had southron ambitions other than Rickard so I don't even know that the targs and Starks had relations until rhaegar and lyanna.

I mean the Starks are descended from Bran the fricking builder they have plenty of magic in their blood line

It's just a crackpot theory, nobody knows at this point. But where are all the stories of magic in the Stark family? And that Bran the Builder built the Wall with magic? I can't find anything from google and Wiki oIaF says he built it with the help of giants. That's all just stories also. I'm basing what I said earlier on the fact that little is known of earlier Starks. There are lots of unknowns in their genealogy and it only goes back 5 generations according to wiki.

This will be my crackpot theory then.
