* [[spoiler:PetTheDog]]: [[spoiler:If Gared told Finn that Cotter was the knife thief back in episode 2, then in episode 3, Finn will have figured out between episodes that Gared was telling the truth, and will behave kindly at the start of episode 3, even sticking up for Gared to Cotter and celebrating Gared's assignment to the rangers.]]

* {{Foreshadowing}}: [[spoiler:He's rather good at sneaking around and stealing. While thieves are hardly unheard of in Westeros, this foreshadows his true identity as a wildling.]]

!!Frostfinger

* PetTheDog: Due to incidents that were actually started by Finn and Cotter, Frostfinger thinks Gared is "trouble" in episode 2. But in episode 3, [[spoiler:he still makes Gared a ranger, exactly the Night's Watch job that Gared was hoping for.]] However, this is unfortunately reversed when [[spoiler:Gared kills Britt, as Frostfinger decides he knew it was a mistake to make Gared a ranger, and tries to have Gared executed.]]

* HotBlooded: While most of Gared's dialogue gives the impression of a mild-mannered and humble young man, some of the choices give the impression that he has a latent angry streak lingering beneath the surface.

[[folder:Gared Tuttle]]
!!Gared Tuttle
[[quoteright:350:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tuttle_gared_9229.jpeg]]
->'''Played By:''' Daniel Kendrick

Gared was raised on stories of heroism about the likes of Arthur Dayne and Barristan the Bold. Though the son of a pig farmer, he has always aspired to one day become a warrior himself. With the help of his uncle Duncan, who had risen from lowborn origins to become Castellan of Ironrath, Gared found work in Lord Forrester's stables, rising through the ranks to eventually be named his squire. Gared has served Lord Forrester throughout the long months in King Robb's army, and is ready to be a warrior in his own right.

* ActionSurvivor: He managed to survive and escape from the Red Wedding massacre.
* ArrogantKungFuGuy: One way to play him.
* {{Badass}}: Takes on three armed men at once and can kill two of them. Which, in Westeros (where RealityEnsues a lot), is damned impressive.
** [[spoiler: In a rematch with the third man, who was sent to the Night's Watch and attacks Gared to settle old scores,]] Gared manages to wipe the floor with his opponent. The fight ends optionally with Gared [[CoupDeGrace finishing him off]], [[DisneyVillainDeath booting him off the top of the Wall]], or [[NotWorthKilling simply walking away.]]
* {{Determinator}}: Gared manages to survive the Red Wedding, survive being attacked by the men who murdered his family, and even ends up salvaging his leg after he's stabbed. He even stays strong when he's sent to the Wall.
* TheExile: He's sent to the Wall to spare both him and the Forresters from the wrath of the Boltons.
* HopeSpot: After all he's been through, it seems like Gared might be getting off scot-free, but he ends up getting sent to the Wall.
* NiceGuy: Another way to play him.
* OneSteveLimit: Averted; he shares the name Gared with another Night's Watch member... one of the Rangers killed off in the opening scene of the television show.
* PlayerCharacter: The first one of the first episode, "Iron From Ice."
* RagsToRiches: Subverted as he was about to become a knight when the Red Wedding happened. That's a ''significant'' social jump since he wouldn't even be a hedge knight.
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Potentially against the Bolton/Whitehill soldiers who killed his family.
** RealityEnsues when this gets him in trouble with the authorities.
* SecretKeeper: Can be one of these for his Lord.
* ThatsGottaHurt: Getting stabbed in the leg in Westeros, where medicine involves maggots eating infected flesh.
* TheQuietOne: He has a lot of options for simply saying nothing when prompted, making it easy to play him this way.
* TheStoic: Given what he goes through, even his angriest lines are subdued.
* TraumaCongaLine: Just read his backstory above. He survives the Red Wedding, comes home to find his family murdered, and then is sent to the Wall. Oh, and along the way, he finds a man flayed alive by someone going to visit his former liege household.
** And it keeps going at the Wall, Gared manages to become a Ranger and then ''immediately'' after he takes the Night's Watch Oath [[spoiler: his Uncle tells him he has to desert the Night's Watch in order to find the North Grove.]]
* WhatTheHellHero: Can have this reaction to his uncle sending him to the Wall.
* VitriolicBestBuds: One way to portray his relationship with Bowen.
* YankTheDogsChain: The Red Wedding happens when he's about to be knighted and join in the attack on Casterly Rock. If he survived, he'd be a legend in the North. Then his TraumaCongaLine begins.

[[folder:Jon Snow]]
!!Jon Snow
->'''Played by:''' Creator/KitHarington

Jon Snow is the bastard son of Lord Eddard Stark and half-brother to King Robb. He was the steward to the late Lord Commander Mormont. He takes Gared under his wing after the young squire gets into a scuffle with Finn.

[[folder:Cotter]]
!!Cotter
->'''Played by:''' Joseph Balderrama

A new Night's Watch recruit. He was forced to join the Watch after being caught stealing potatoes.

* BewareTheNiceOnes: When Finn and Cotter are introduced, Cotter is a lot nicer than Finn, not to mention having been sent to the Wall for a much lesser crime, but [[spoiler:Cotter starts a lot of trouble by stealing Finn's knife, which results in a fight between Gared and Finn that gets Gared in trouble.]]
* BlondesAreEvil: A very mild example, as Cotter was only sent to the Wall for being a "thief", while Gared and Finn are murderers. [[spoiler:Although Cotter steals Finn's knife later, which causes trouble that is far less mild.]]
* FiveFingerDiscount: He's a skilled thief, as he's able to lift Finn's knife without him even noticing at first.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: [[spoiler:He's rather good at sneaking around and stealing. While thieves are hardly unheard of in Westeros, this foreshadows his true identity as a wildling.]]
* HeelRealization: [[spoiler:If Gared told Finn about Cotter stealing the knife in episode 2, Cotter will begin episode 3 by acting bitter and resentful about it, feeling betrayed...but if Gared is able to persuade Cotter that Gared is still his friend, then Cotter will actually apologize for getting Gared in trouble with Frostfinger, promising to mend his ways.]]
* NiceGuy: He's immediately cordial to Gared and contrasts Finn's arsehole nature. Played with in that he's perfectly capable of causing trouble if he feels like it.
* NothingUpMySleeve: Hides Finn's stolen blade up his sleeve and gets away with this when he's searched by Frostfinger.
* SayingTooMuch: Cotter acts and talks before thinking about it. [[spoiler: Which is exactly how Gared finds out that he's a wildling.]]
* ThatCameOutWrong: When he's asked why he joined the Watch, he responds "fucking potatoes." Gared and Finn can call him a potato fucker.
* TokenEnemyMinority: [[spoiler:Turns out to be a wildling who got caught while stealing weapons, and avoided execution by pretending to be a native.]]

* {{Hypocrite}}: When Gared tells Finn to fuck off, Finn chastises him for his dirty tongue, despite himself swearing like a sailor.

* [[spoiler:HeelRealization]]: [[spoiler:If Gared told Finn about Cotter stealing the knife in episode 2, Cotter will begin episode 3 by acting bitter and resentful about it, feeling betrayed...but if Gared is able to persuade Cotter that Gared is still his friend, then Cotter will actually apologize for getting Gared in trouble with Frostfinger, promising to mend his ways.]]
