Character Review: Lyanna Stark

Lyanna Stark sister of Eddard Stark and Benjen Stark in the world popular series of Game of Thrones is depicted only in some scenes-one by a young girl, another by a lady-has also been known to be Jon Snow's mother in later season 6.
Lyanna was said to have kidnapped by Prince Rhaegar Targaryen, but later on Bran finds out through his vision, in season 7-last episode, that Rhaegar loved Lyanna and married her in a secret ceremony in Dorne. They had a child who was later secretly grown by Ned Stark, as a promise to his dying sister Lyanna Stark. It could be now said that Eddard Stark was preserving the last Targaryen (Dragon) blood in the skin of a wolf.
To recapitulate, a beautiful young sister of Starks, Lyanna Stark was the love of Rhaegar Targaryen with whom she gave birth to Jon Snow. Thus, Lyanna Stark is a prominent character for making the story of Jon Snow possible.

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...

Character Review: Baelon Greyjoy

Baelon Greyjoy, the ruler of Iron Islands and the father of Theon and Yara Greyjoy, was murdered by his own brother, Euron Greyjoy. He has a very less part in this series. Baelon can be considered a helpless father, who received his own son’s pen*s as a parcel from an enemy, who held captive of his son. He even dies of his own brother’s hand on a bridge. Baelon’s brother tries to murder even his nephew and niece. I assume Euron Greyjoy will die from the hand of Theon Greyjoy. Next, Baelon is also a helpless father when his son was taken by the Starks and the Baratheons as a captive for the misdeed the Greyjoy performed by supporting the Targaryen’s during the Great War for Seven Kingdoms. In conclusion, Baelon was unlucky from the very start of the series and had achieved very less until when he died.

Character Review: Shae

Shae, a prostitute, acted as a very intimate lover of Tyrion Lannister. Tyrion Lannister was the son of the most powerful person in Westeros, Tywin Lannister. Shae must have acted to fall in love just because of Tyrion’s profile as a son of Tywin. Shae and Tyrion met in a tent during the preparation of war between the Lannister and the Starks. They were accompanied by Bron, a Sellsword, who can fight his life for some gold. Tyrion says the whole story how he was pranked by Jaime about his lover. He even expresses that he loved the girl very much but Jaime pranked upon him by sending a prostitute to him. Tyrion didn’t know that Shae was a prostitute, or he didn’t mind what she really was. Shae saw the benefit that she can have by just being with Tyrion Lannister. Next, as the story developed sequentially, Shae reaches to the Kings Landing, inside Tyrion’s Chamber. Nobody knew that Shae was an ambitious girl, whose only motive was to make Tywin fall in love with her. Later on Sha...

Character Review: Alliser Thorne

Ser Alliser Thorne, one of the brother of the Night’s Watch, is characterized as someone who is very keen of being on Power. For instance, he captures the post of Lord Commander, when Lord Commander Jeor Mormont was killed by his own fellow men under the same roof beyond the wall, becoming the acting Lord Commander. Ser Alliser Thorne even loses the election for Lord Commander to Jon Snow, who was very renowned for his bravery. Ser Alliser never liked Jon Snow because he knew that someone else was becoming smarter than him and someday he might get even more popular than Ser Alliser himself. Ser Alliser was offended of his opinion, when the 998 th LC of the Night’s Watch, Jon Snow lets the wildlings through the tunnel. Ser Alliser even tries to kill the LC by shoving a knife in his heart. Later on Jon Snow comes back to life and hangs him up. In this way Ser Alliser’s story ends.
