From the "Game Of Thrones Wiki":

Arya Stark is a major character in the first and second seasons. She is played by starring cast member Maisie Williams and debuts in the series premiere. Arya is a daughter of House Stark who has been separated from her family. She is fiercely independent and is often mistaken for a boy. She wields a sword named Needle, a gift from her half-brother Jon Snow, and has been trained in the Braavosi style of swordfighting. She adopted the direwolf Nymeria but they have since been separated.

Arya Stark is the youngest daughter of Eddard and Catelyn. She is the sister of Robb, Sansa, Bran and Rickon and half-sister of Jon Snow. Her father Eddard is the Head of House Stark, Warden of the North, Lord of Winterfell and Lord paramount of the North. She lives with her family in Winterfell.

Arya rejects the notion that she must become a lady and marry for influence and power, feeling she can forge her own destiny. She is fascinated by warfare and bored by the pursuits of ladies. She has a quarrelsome relationship with her sister Sansa. She is close to her half brother Jon who is also something of an outcast.

My second favorite character (so far.....)
