Added DiffLines:

* InterClassFriendship: Downplayed since they were both lords, but with vastly different statuses. Hoster Tully, liege lord of the Riverlands, one of the most powerful lords in the Westeros and of a distinguished old line, befriended Lord Baelish during the War of the Nine Penny Kings, whose father was a hedge knight, and whose domain consisted of a single little windswept village on a small peninsula in the Vale. The friendship was great enough for Hoster to foster Lord Baelish's son Petyr.

* MeaningfulName: Tully means "flood" in Irish Gaelic.

to:

* MeaningfulName: Tully means "flood" in Irish Gaelic. Gaelic, aside from the obvious river association, the Tully seat, Riverrun, has the means to flood a large area around it, turning the castle into an island, increasing it's defences.


Added DiffLines:

* FormerlyFit: Justified, Catelyn remembers him as an active lord in his youth, with Hoster being broad and strong, but as with many other men, he grew portly with age. But his illness took all of that extra weight away.

* AHouseDivided: He and his grandfather disagreed over who should inherit the Iron Throne, and Elmo actually ignored his grandfathers command to support Aegon.

* ThemeNaming: You may notice a pattern in this era of the Tully family, in that they're all named after characters from ''Sesame Street'' and ''The Muppets''.

* ReasonYouSuckSpeech: Makes his feelings for Jaime Lannister quite clear during their parley at Riverrun. Given that the Blackfish was a hero of Jaime's when he was just a squire, his contempt makes it clear that despite his recent HeelFaceTurn, the Kingslayer [[ReformedButRejected still has a long way to go]].

* ForWantOfANail: Had Roslin been present at the Twins at the time, Catelyn Tully would have painted a more favorable picture of Lord Walder's daughters to Robb, possibly preventing him from ultimately marrying Jeyne Westerling.
