->''"I never fought a war before, but I'd fight for you."''
A knight of the realm, known as the Knight of Flowers.
!!Tropes:
* [[AgentPeacock Ser Peacock]]
* CampGay: Borders on this, specially when compared to Renly's StraightGay.
* CombatPragmatist: He rode a mare that was in heat, knowing [[TheDreaded Gregor]] would be [[TestosteronePoisoning riding a stallion]]. Characters grumble over whether it makes him this trope or [[TryingToCatchMeFightingDirty a dirty cheat]].
* [[CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass Crouching Fop, Hidden Badass]]: To the point that his lover believes he could train for years and never be half as good as Ser Loras.
* TheDandy: Shiny armor, immaculately groomed, loves his flowers.
* InSeriesNickname: The Knight of Flowers [[hottip:From the books...: He's also referred to as "Renly's little rose," thus managing to combine his family's heraldic symbol with commentary on his politics, his sexual orientation and his presumed-to-be-favorite sexual position.]]
* KnightInShiningArmor: Closest candidate to be one. Chivalrous, noble, skilled warrior and, were his armor any shinier, he would be a walking mirror. Subverted in that he wasn't above [[NotCheatingUnlessYouGetCaught underhanded]] tactics to avoid a grim fate at the hands of "The Mountain."
* LadyMacbeth: Without his lips whispering encouragement in Renly's ear (and doing... other things in other places), Renly probably still would have ''thought'' he'd make a good king, but he'd probably never have acted on those thoughts. Possibly a subversion, as other characters have implied Renly's legitimately is the best choice of all the people related to Robert, and only out of the running due to an accident of birth order.
* LoveMakesYouEvil: Arguably. See LadyMacbeth.
* MachiavelliWasWrong: He thinks Renly should be king because unlike those who came before him, he would be ''loved'' instead of hated or feared.
* PrettyBoy
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Leaves with Renly when it becomes evident that Joffrey will ascend to the throne.
