A Song of Ice and Fire/Characters/House Greyjoy: Difference between revisions

Line 43:
* {{spoiler|[[Death Seeker]]: In A Dance with Dragons, he prays to the weirwood tree in Winterfell to "Let me die as Theon, not as Reek."}}
* [[Face Heel Turn]]: In A Clash of Kings.
** A Dance With Dragons sees him trying to [[Heel Face Turn|drag himself back the other way]], despite having fewer fingers to do the dragging with now.
* [[Fate Worse Than Death]]: Ramsay Bolton {{spoiler|held Theon prisoner in the Dreadfort, torturing him into insanity by [[Flaying Alive|peeling off his skin]] inch by inch and apparently castrating him. The result of this is that Ramsay now has another slave called Reek...most of the time...}}
* [[Foil]]: To Jon Snow. Both are outsiders raised at Winterfell who are suffering from identity issues that have left them bitter and with the desire to prove themselves. While Jon Snow has been scorned all his life for being a bastard who does not even know the identity of his mother, he has risen to Lord Commander of the Night's Watch {{spoiler|and might possibly be the heir to the Iron Throne}}. Theon is the heir of the Iron Islands, failed at keeping Winterfell after he captured it in an effort to gain affection from his father, {{spoiler|and was later tortured into thinking he was a commoner named Reek}}.
