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: Lady Brienne of Tarth

Lady Brienne, the sworn protector of the Kingguard of Renly Baratheon was from the least popular place of Tarth. Her father was the Lord of Tarth of whom she is the only heir, alive. She is unusually tall and muscular for a woman by Westerosi standards and developed a taste for martial activity as a child. Lady Brienne was later sworn for protecting the Stark children on command of Lady Catelyn Stark. Brienne is the sole surviving child and heir of Lord Selwyn Tarth of Evenfall Hall, on the island of Tarth, located in the Narrow Sea off the coast of the Stormlands. Brienne has grown up to become skilled at arms and dreams of becoming a knight. Brienne's mother died when she was so young that she doesn't remember her. She had some siblings but they all died in childhood. As the sole heir of House Tarth, she posed a fairly promising marriage prospect for men from other noble Houses, but due to her physicality and person...

Character Review: Theon Greyjoy

Theon Greyjoy, the last remaining son of Baelon Greyjoy, was taken away by Ned Stark after the Iron Islands were defeated by Roberts’s army. Ned Stark cared of Theon just like his own son. Later on Theon betrayed Ned and his memory by capturing Winterfell for his real father, Baelon Greyjoy. Theon was the best friend of the King in the North, Robb Stark. Theon was sent on a mission by Robb Stark. During which Theon betrayed Robb and took control of Winterfell right after Ned Stark’s death. He even had to prosecute Ser Rodrick.

Ramsay Bolton even cuts out his Penis and submits to Theon’s father, Baelon Greyjoy. Ramsay tortured Theon in a very deep level because of which Theon even forgot his own identity. Ramsay forced Theon to be known as the Reek. Eventhough house Bolton was a torturous house since past, Ramsay was more tortur...

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.
