Wait, the Night's King isn't a white walker?

The Night's King was a Lord Commander of the Night's Watch not long after the Wall was supposedly finished. Supposedly he fell in love with some sort of white skinned/blue eyed woman or something beyond the wall, and brought her back. He declared himself King and her Queen, and ruled the Night's Watch as such. Supposedly terrible stuff happened during his reign, like making sacrifices to the Others.

Eventually Brandon the Breaker (the ruling Stark) joined forces with a Wildling king, and they defeated the Night's King and freed the Night's Watch.

Here is a link to his story: LINK
