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. Gregor is monstrously huge, said to be the largest man in Westeros. He is feared throughout Westeros with a reputation for ferocity and anger. He is a loyal retainer and servant of House Lannister, particularly to Lord Tywin.

Numerous servants have gone missing at the Clegane keep over the years, apparently killed by Gregor for minor slights in one of his infamous fits of rage, and their deaths then covered up. Gregor's own father and sister died under dubious circumstances as well, and Sandor thinks that Gregor may have killed them as well. Their sister died when Sandor was too young to remember her well, and their father died years later in what was said to be a "hunting accident". At the request of Tywin Lannister, Prince Rhaegar Targaryen himself anointed Gregor as a knight, a great honor, even though Gregor was an infamously dishonorable man.
Ser Gregor Clegane has remained faithful to the House Lannister by defeating every great enemy of the House. For instance, he killed a sparrow boy brutally, who supported a very new religion, under the command of Queen Cersie Lannister.
In conclusion, Ser Gregor Clegane is an man of dishonor, filth, and hatred for love, making him a merciless man. (Source:-http://gameofthrones.wikia.com/wiki/Gregor_Clegane)

Character Review: Tormund Giantsbane

Tormund, often called Tormund Giantsbane, is a renowned leader and raider among the Free Folk and one of the key leaders behind Mance Rayder. Tormund respected Mance as the King-Beyond-the-Wall and suspected he was the man to lead them through the Long Night. But as time passes and Mance is killed on the orders of Stannis Baratheon, he believes the prophesied warrior is his enemy-turned-friend Jon Snow. Tormund Giantsbane is an extremely fierce and determined man and a born warrior of the Free Folk in almost every way. Aside from his excellent fighting skills and monstrous strength, Tormund is a supremely intimidating individual who immediately asserts that his enemies should be afraid of him, which he does in his first encounter with Jon Snow, stating that men similar to Jon have met their ends trying to end Tormund's life in combat. Tormund is clearly hugely respected among his people, as evidenced by the immense responsibilities p...

Character Review: Sandor Cleagane

Sandor Clegane, also referred to as 'the Hound' is a knight in the famous series of Game of Thrones. His first depicted duty was a member of Kings Guard, or to protect the King from any harm. Sandor Clegane's main duty was with the King, Joeffrey at the time, but he left the red keep. He later resigned himself because he thought that fighting someone else's war while the main person whom it matters sits on a safe place would be worthless and honor-less to him. Sandor Clegane has a scar of fire in his head. His head was burned by his brother because he was playing with one of his brother's toy. Now his only aim remains to kill Gregor Clegane, his own brother-- as revenge. It can be seen that his burned face always makes him remember about his evil brother. To recapitulate, Sandor Clegane was a great knight whose only aim remains to kill Gregor Clegane, his own brother, as depicted by the series so far.
