* Both of the Stark daughters, [[Tomboy and Girly Girl|Arya and Sansa]]. Arya lives on the run as a [[Street Urchin]], sees her father, mother and older brother die without being able to do anything to stop such deaths, progressively falls into insanity and is taken in by a murderous cult; Sansa is abused by almost every person she trusts, witnesses several horrific machinations and has to put on a [[Jerkass Facade|bitch facade]] to survive.

* Sansa much more so than Arya, since Arya was always rather more sensible and fiery. Sansa starts out sweet, frivolous, and naive, convinced that life is like a song: true knights, elegant princesses, chivalrous princes, all the fairytale rot. Then the breaking begins, kicked off by {{spoiler|watching the guy she was all starry-eyed over murder her father right in front of her}}, and by the end of the second book, all such illusions have been crushed. By book four, she's almost as cynical as the [[Manipulative Bastard]] that's training her.
