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.

Rob Stark and Theon Greyjoy

When you will describe these two characters you will obviously notice a great difference in both of them. One is: one of the friends is loyal to another one but another one is disloyal. It’s similar to saying that a Wolf’s in a Sheep’s clothing. George R. R. Martin is very creative in portraying the betrayal of Theon Greyjoy, the only living true son of Baelon Greyjoy of the Iron Islands, to his best friend Robb Stark. Robb Stark and Theon Greyjoy both were grown together in the Winterfell. Theon was brought by Ned Stark to Winterfell after the Robert’s army killed every living son of Baelon Greyjoy. Robb was pre-destined to be the Lord of Winterfell and the Warden of the North while Theon would only serve Robb as a loyal companion. Further, as the story progressed Ned Stark was kept as a captive for being a traitor on a false charge of committing crime against the crown. Robb Stark got angry about the news. He remembered how his Grandfather and Uncle were burned by the Mad King...
