Character Review: Jon Snow


Born on a tower in Dorne, Jon Snow is the son of Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark, sister of Eddard Stark. Lyanna was supposed to marry Robert Baratheon of House Baratheon, but was taken by Rhaegar.
Ned or Eddard Stark found this boy in a tower of Dorne beside his dying sister, Lyanna Stark, in her bed. As shown in the season 6 finale, "The Winds of Winter", Bran Stark has a vision of the past which shows Ned reuniting with a dying Lyanna in the Tower of Joy. Lyanna makes him promise that he will protect her son—Jon. He had promised his sister to protect this child. Ned was supposed to keep it secret that the child's name was Aegon Targaryen, the last living conqueror.
Jon Snow is seen as a slender, white Northman with brown hair and brown eyes. Jon Snow, at present bears the title, the King in the North. He was the first man to make friendship between freefolks and Northmens. He was also the 998th lord commander of Night's Watch, also called the Castle Black in the popular series of Game of Thrones.

Character Review: Gregor Cleagane

Ser Gregor Clegane is the head of House Clegane, a knightly house from the Westerlands, and the elder brother of Sandor Clegane. When Sandor and Gregor were children, Gregor held his brother's face in a fire for playing with one of his toys without permission, horrifically scarring him. Gregor is a landed knight rather than a full-fledged lord.

Character Review: Janos Slynt

Janos Slynt can be seen as a man who is very proud of his power. He commanded the city watch when he was in the King's Landing and then he was transferred to the Night's watch. In Night's watch he was a close adviser to Ser Alliser Thorne, the acting Lord Commander after Lord Commander Jeor Mormont's death. Janos Slynt can be seen as someone who do not take orders and who is proud of what he did some years ago in the city. He even thought that he deserved a better respect than any other looters, theives, or any high-born on the Night's watch. Further, Janos Slynt, at an occasion, denied the command from Lord Commander Jon Snow and faces his death. Anyhow we can say that it was a good end for a bad character. To recapitulate, Janos Slynt met a perfect death which was suitable for his character.
