* EvilHasABadSenseOfHumor: Chiswyck thinks it's absolutely hysterical that after raping her, Gregor Clegane demanded back some of the money he paid her father because "she wasn't worth a silver," and the man gave him some coppers and thanked him for the custom.
* TheGhost: She is only mentioned as part of a story told by Chiswyck.
* TraumaCongaLine: She is gang-raped by the Mountain and his men in plain view of her father, while her brother is killed trying to stop them.

* ForWantOfANail:
** Was accidentally responsible for the overthrow of the Targaryens, by causing Jaehaerys II to force his children Aerys and Rhaella to marry.
** She might have been partly responsible for the union between Prince Duncan Targaryen and Jenny of Oldstones, breaking his betrothal with a daughter of Lord Lyonel Baratheon, thus causing a rift between House Targaryen and House Baratheon that was somewhat healed (but not quite) when Rhaelle Targaryen was sent to wed Lyonel's son Ormund. As such, had Duncan become king with a Baratheon queen as it was intended, there is a chance that House Baratheon wouldn't have ended up deposing and almost exterminating the Targaryens.

%%* * ReallyGetsAround: Sometimes consensually, sometimes not.Pia has a reputation for being sexually promiscuous and most of her scenes revolve around her sexuality. During Tywin's occupation at Harrenhal, she sleeps with several of his knights. After Roose Bolton takes over, she's placed in the stocks and raped by multiple men. She also tries to sleep with Jaime Lannister, but he rejects her. Instead, she ends up in a relationship with one of his squires. Before Jaime executes one of his men for raping her, the rapist tries to claim that its no big deal because he and plenty of other men have already had sex with her multiple times.

Added DiffLines:

*MortonsFork: Happens to every at all pretty peasant serving girl like Pia in twice-occupied Harrenhall. Refuse sexual advances of Lannister soldiers and they'll rape you with impunity. Don't refuse them and you'll be put in dungeon to be raped by Bolton's forces for sleeping with Lannisters. So it is rape either way.

* HyperAwareness: He goes out of his way to cultivate this by drinking in details about other people he might end up fighting against ahead of time. Even when thrown into a surprise fight, he ''very'' quickly adapts his tactics to account for the environment the fight occurs in and what his opponent is bringing to bear. He's also quite the dab hand at picking up on the general atmosphere and politics around him, so even a "surprise" fight is unlikely to be a total shcoker for him. Having a very good idea what King's Landing under Cersei is going to be like thanks to his time soaking in the atmosphere with Tyrion has probably helped decide his move to profit from her, then name Lollys's little boy in such a way to have the perfect excuse to stay as much away from the place as possible before everything goes hideously tits-up. Holed up in a nice, defensible, tactically sound, well-constructed, historically renowned, small (and eminently manageable) keep-and-estate, too. Bronn is one of the few to see the writing on the wall and take the steps to bunker up.

* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: When he first meets Tyrion and enters his service, he tells him up front that he's only in it for the money and that he's not his friend. Since Tyrion comes from a filthy rich family and is willing to meet any price Bronn may be offered, their relationship gets along swimmingly until Tyrion's trial by combat for [[spoiler:King Joffrey's assassination]]. Tyrion turns to his trusty right hand man, the man he elevated from a lowly sellsword, surely grateful for all Tyrion has done for him, and asks him to represent him in battle against Ser Gregor. Bronn, flush with a knighthood thanks to Lord Tywin and a noble title thanks to Cersei's bumbling maneuvering, turns him down, subverting ThePowerOfFriendship by doing exactly what he said he'd do when he and Tyrion first met: Serve him until he got a better offer. Tyrion, despite being in a very dire situation, doesn't hold it against Bronn at all.

Lanna


* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Tywin did not kill her and shipped her off where she wouldn't come looking for trouble. There are not even cryptic clues as to where she ended, but [[spoiler:Tyrion sets on a quest of sorts to find her regardless]]. Fandom also seeks out clues about her whereabouts and if she has already appeared under a nickname. One theory concerns the Sailor's Wife, a prostitute in Braavos. She marries the men she beds in a mock ceremony, is fluent in the Common Tongue, is waiting for her one true love and has a blond daughter named Lanna. This last part is actually very important, as another, completely different character asked Cersei permission to name her unborn child ''Lanna'' if it's a girl. Lanna is also just the right age to be Tyrion's daughter.

* CatchPhrase: "I'll chop off your manhood and feed it to the goats" is Shagga's favorite threats; it is sometimes used by [[DeadpanSnarker Tyrion]] to great effect. It turns out that Shagga refers to a man's beard as his "manhood". While in King's Landing, Tyrion often preempts Shagga from saying that will feed people's manhoods to goats. When Tyrion says this Shagga then brings up how there are no goats around.
