Line 36:
* {{spoiler|[[Killed Off for Real]]}}
* [[Lawful Stupid]]: He can sometimes come off as this. {{spoiler|Good job warning Cersei, idiot.}} But in fairness, there were several dangerous conspiracies afoot at court that neither he nor others were aware of that played a hand in what happened, and ''nobody'' could have reckoned that Joffer would {{spoiler|have him ''executed'' and spark off a civil war for no good reason.}}
** Note, however, that with many of these actions, Ned was ''perfectly aware'' of the potential fallout, but feels bound to his course of action for whatever reason. {{spoiler|He feels that he has to warn Cersei not for her sake, but because he doesn't want to see her children killed because of her.}} It wasn't that he was stupid, he just had different priorities than the rest of the deeply pragmatic and/or cruel people around him.
* [[The Promise]]: [[Arc Words|"Promise me, Ned"]].
* [[The Stoic]]: Sometimes called "cold-hearted," Eddard is a very reserved man.
