| 9 | !The Unsullied |
| 10 | [[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/unsullied.jpg]] |
| 11 | |
| 12 | ->''"They begin their training at five. Every day they drill from dawn to dusk until they have mastered the shortsword, the shield, and the three spears. Only one boy in four survives this rigorous training. Their discipline and loyalty are absolute. They fear nothing."'' |
| 13 | -->-- '''Missandei''' |
| 14 | |
| 15 | An army of slave warrior-eunuchs trained from childhood in the city-state of Astapor. |
| 16 | |
| 17 | [[folder:In General]] |
| 18 | |
| 19 | * BadassArmy: Their intense training and fierce devotion to their master makes them one of the qualitatively strongest armies in the world. According to a History and Lore segment, the Free City of Qohor once bought an army of three thousand Unsullied to protect the city from a horde of ''fifty thousand'' Dothraki lead by one Khal Temmo. Only six hundred Unsullied were left alive after the battle, but Khal Temmo, all his sons and his bloodriders were dead, and the remaining Dothraki all cut their braids and retreated in shame. |
| 20 | * BallisticDiscount: They get used in a medieval, firearm-less version. Daenerys buys every single Unsullied from Astapor understanding full well that they will obey her every command... then promptly orders them to sack the city and free the rest of the slaves. |
| 21 | * CripplingOverspecialization: The Unsullied are trained to fight with shield and spear in tightly massed formations on open battlegrounds. This leaves them at a disadvantage in close quarter combat in urban areas, especially when scattered in small groups. It also means that their below-average size and strength, most probably due to being castrated prior to puberty, become a much bigger issue. |
| 22 | * CurbStompBattle: The Sack of Astapor is hands down one of the most one-sided battles in the entire series. |
| 23 | ** Once they breach the gates of Casterly Rock, they cut through the Lannister forces like tissue paper. Largely because the bulk of the Lannister forces aren't there. |
| 24 | * TheDogBitesBack: The Unsullied were raised like animals by the Wise Masters, who mercilessly tortured them into hardened killing machines. Dany's first order lets the Unsullied show their Wise Masters just how good they are at killing. |
| 25 | * EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: For the eagle-eyed book reader, the Unsullied can in fact be seen in the background of Daenerys's wedding with bronze spiked caps and spears, looking more like their book descriptions. The TV Unsullied look is solidified the next time they're featured, with a black helmet and mask with a curved spike instead of a straight one. |
| 26 | * FacelessMooks: Unlike their book counterparts, the faces of TV Unsullied are covered by a mask that leaves only their eyes exposed. In Seasons 4 and 5, we do see plenty of Unsullied without their helmets, though. |
| 27 | * FeelNoPain: Kraznys demonstrates by casually cutting off one Unsullied's nipple. |
| 28 | * HoldTheLine: [[spoiler: The majority of the Unsullied meet their end at the Battle for the Dawn in Season 8 against the Undead Wights. They do so by holding the lines for the other armies to retreat.]] |
| 29 | * IChooseToStay: Daenerys releases them after the sack of Astapor, but they choose to serve her willingly instead, signified by them tapping their spear shafts into the ground. |
| 30 | * InformedAbility: Their mostly offscreen sack of Astapor aside (which was a sack against non-combatants, not soldiers), the Unsullied don't get much opportunity to to demonstrate that they're the skilled, disciplined army they supposedly are, other than being pretty good at marching. "The Sons of the Harpy" shows them being attacked in small groups of six or two by the titular Sons, unable to put up a fight against dozens of the former slavers in close quarters. |
| 31 | ** Finally averted in Season 7 where they fight Lannister soldiers and massacre them in close-quarters combat. |
| 32 | ** Averted as well in Season 8, where they HoldTheLine against the Night King's horde of Wights, and again [[spoiler: during the Sack of King's Landing, where (initially) they fight Lannister soldiers again and tear through them.]] |
| 33 | * {{Irony}}: After all the talk of being free men thanks to Daenerys, their blind loyalty to her made them act as if they were still slaves, as they showed themselves willing to obey her every order, ethical or otherwise. |
| 34 | * LogicalWeakness: |
| 35 | ** The Unsullied are trained thoroughly in open warfare in tight formations, not attacks in urban environment. This gives them trouble in Meereen when the Sons of the Harpy ambush and kill small numbers of Unsullied on patrol. |
| 36 | ** Similarly, a lack of fear is highly useful, but not when you're trying to root out a hidden enemy, especially when you march in conspicious groups. Daario explains that only someone who understands fear could figure out where an irregular enemy would be hiding. |
| 37 | ** [[spoiler: Their defensive formations are incredibly good against most standard armies, but against the army of the Undead, who literally throw themselves at their targets and use a ZergRush, they fall apart from the sheer tidal wave of bodies.]] |
| 38 | * NecessaryDrawback: From the perspective of their former masters, at least. Being castrated at a young age may mean that they can focus solely on fighting and obeying, but it also means that their physical growth has been stunted. Grey Worm, though a skilled fighter and commander, has a noticeably thin physique compared to Daenerys' other lieutenants. |
| 39 | * NotAfraidToDie: In theory, because the masters have taken their humanity. In practice, because there are no masters in the grave. |
| 40 | * PraetorianGuard: They are the most elite forces at Daenerys' disposal, and there's always a few of them who guard her rooms or bodyguard her. |
| 41 | * SlaveMooks: Originally. They are freed by Daenerys, then decide to become her subjects. |
| 42 | * SleevesAreForWimps: Their armor doesn't cover their arms. |
| 43 | * TheSpartanWay: The Unsullied are trained in this manner, but the methods used are even [[TrainingFromHell worse]] than anything in real-life Sparta. Before becoming full-fledged Unsullied, each recruit must go to the slave market and murder a slave child in front of its mother, and then pay a silver coin... to the mother's owner. [[labelnote:From the books...]]The Good Masters also give each of the would-be Unsullied a puppy to take care of after they are castrated at the age of five. At the age of six, the would-be Unsullied must strangle their puppy to demonstrate their willingness to follow orders. Any trainee unable to do so is put to death. More of them fail that test than the later baby test.[[/labelnote]] |
| 44 | * SuperSoldier: Basically. Fearless, perfectly disciplined in martial arts, and immune to pain. |
| 45 | * ThirdPersonPerson: They use "this one" to describe themselves, emphasizing their lack of autonomy. Grey Worm has grown out of it, and presumably so have others. |
| 46 | * TrainingFromHell: They are put through rigorous dawn to dusk drilling from the time they're five. Predictably, only one in four survives to become Unsullied. |
| 47 | * UndyingLoyalty: To whoever owns them. They are now completely loyal to Daenerys, though she no longer ''owns'' them as she has declared them to be free, but the vast majority of them still follow her. |
| 48 | * TheUnfettered: Each of them must undergo years of TrainingFromHell concluded with the murder of an infant, so that they will have no hesitation in following any order. [[spoiler:Taken to horrifying extremes when Daenerys orders them to purge the surrendering civilians of King's Landing, and ''instead of stopping the Dothraki or using their freedom to protest,'' [[EunuchsAreEvil willingly participate and organize the massacre.]]]] |
| 49 | * WorthyOpponent: They're the only foot soldiers the Dothraki have any real respect for, considering their history with them. |
| 50 | * YouAreNumberSix: Not even numbers, Unsullied are given random slave names like Grey Worm or White Rat each day to emphasize that they own nothing, not even names. Grey Worm chooses to keep his name, as it was the one he had when Daenerys freed him. |

| 53 | [[folder:Grey Worm]] |
| 54 | !!Grey Worm |
| 55 | [[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/grey_worm.png]] |
| 56 | [[caption-width-right:300:''"Grey Worm is the name this one had on the day Daenerys Stormborn set him free."'']] |
| 57 | !!!'''Played By:''' Creator/JacobAnderson |
| 58 | |
| 59 | ->''"I promise you, a single day of freedom is worth more than a lifetime in chains."'' |
| 60 | |
| 61 | The officer the Unsullied have chosen to lead them. He develops a fierce loyalty towards Daenarys for freeing him from slavery, as well as developing a romance with Missandei, Daenarys closest confidant. |
| 62 | ---- |
| 63 | * AdaptationalAttractiveness: In the books, he's described as stocky and square; Jacob Anderson is neither of these. |
| 64 | * AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul: Grey Worm and Missandei had no interaction in the books despite being on the same side, with the former being a very young girl and the latter a soldier. The show gives Missandei an AgeLift to a young adult and makes Grey Worm her love interest. |
| 65 | * AmbiguouslyBrown: It turns out Grey Worm's from the Summer Isles, though he's substantially lighter than the only other character we've met from the Summer Isles: Xaro Xhoan Daxos.[[labelnote:From the books...]]His ancestry has yet to be revealed in the books; Martin has stated that he has no plans as of yet to go further into Grey Worm's race or personal history, but he might do so if the notion strikes him.[[/labelnote]] |
| 66 | * AnguishedDeclarationOfLove: To Missandei in Season 7, episode 2, before he leaves for battle against the Lannisters. They consummate the relationship immediately after. |
| 67 | * AppropriatedAppellation: His name was given to him by his masters as an insult. He chooses to keep his name even after Dany allows him to pick a new one. In his mind, Grey Worm is a sacred name since it belongs to a man who has been freed from slavery.[[labelnote:From the books...]]The Unsullied were given a new name each day, all insulting and vermin-themed, to reinforce the idea that they are not individuals. Grey Worm just happened to be the name was given when the army was sold to Dany.[[/labelnote]] |
| 68 | * AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Grey Worm was chosen by the notoriously badass Unsullied to lead them and is easily the best fighter among them. |
| 69 | * BackToBackBadasses: With Daario Naharis and Jorah Mormont. |
| 70 | * TheBrute: [[spoiler:After Dany's FaceHeelTurn by default, since Grey Worm is the commander of her army.]] |
| 71 | * CantHaveSexEver: Played with. Grey Worm's emasculation prevents him from engaging in any manner of traditional intercourse, but it sure doesn't stop him from pleasuring Missandei with his mouth. |
| 72 | * {{Cliffhanger}}: The confrontation with the Sons of the Harpy leaves Grey Worm badly wounded, but considerably less obviously dead than Ser Barristan. The next episode shows he survived. |
| 73 | * ColonelBadass: Chosen by the Unsullied officers as their commander. |
| 74 | * TheComicallySerious: More so than Missandei, he is ''extremely'' awkward during his conversations with Tyrion. However, the latter finally gets him to make a joke in the penultimate episode of the season (in the most deadpan way possible). |
| 75 | * DanceBattler: Grey Worm is muscled but not big, so he fights in a very light and graceful way... when not using a ShieldBash, that is. |
| 76 | * ADayInTheLimelight: "Oathkeeper" is this for him, where he gets as much screen time as Tyrion Lannister, and reveals himself to be a GuileHero of the highest caliber. Indeed, it's he, not Daenerys, who's the true victor over Meereen. |
| 77 | * DeathGlare: Grey Worm is capable of some terrifying ones towards those who earned his ire, despite being very stoic. [[spoiler:He shoots one towards Jon when he sees Jon trying, and failing, to get his men to stop attacking the surrendering Lannister army]]. |
| 78 | * DislikesTheNewGuy: His actor revealed Grey Worm has some distrust for Tyrion because of his foreign background. He has never experienced a person like Tyrion before and his knowledge of the Lannisters confuses him once he meet him. The dislike continues after Tyrion's schemes in Meereen led it to be besieged by former slavemasters over a peace deal that Grey Worm and Missandei told him was a bad idea. |
| 79 | * EloquentInMyNativeTongue: His subtitled dialogue shows a much better vocabulary than when he uses the Common Tongue of Westeros, as he has only recently begun to learn the latter from Missandei. |
| 80 | * EmergencyWeapon: Grey Worm carries a knife as a backup weapon, which he uses to execute Belicho Paenymion and Razdal mo Eraz in Season 6. |
| 81 | * FaceHeelTurn: [[spoiler:Out of loyalty to Daenarys and his hatred towards the Lannisters for murdering his love, Missandei, Grey Worm has turned absolutely ruthless towards his enemies, even if they are surrendering or completely innocent, slaughtering anyone who gets within his reach.]] |
| 82 | * ForcedToWatch: [[spoiler: He has to watch Missandei being decapitated by the Mountain on Cersei's orders, although at the last moment he tries to look away]]. |
| 83 | * GuileHero: Incites the slave revolt that topples Meereen from within. |
| 84 | * HeartbrokenBadass: [[spoiler: Upon Missandei's execution.]] |
| 85 | * ICantLookGesture: [[spoiler: When Missandei is beheaded, he quickly turns away in horror, unable to watch the woman he loves die in such a manner, though it's not clear if he looked away quickly enough to miss it]]. |
| 86 | * IconicSequelCharacter: Doesn't appear in the series until Season 3. |
| 87 | * JackOfAllStats: He says that he was never the strongest or biggest of Unsullied but the bravest and never had a special training to eliminate a fear since he never showed one. |
| 88 | * KarmaHoudini: [[spoiler:Despite instigating the RapePillageAndBurn on behalf of Daenerys's forces with his assault on the Lannisters in "The Bells," Grey Worm is allowed to simply bring the Unsullied and Dothraki back to Essos without punishment in "The Iron Throne."]] |
| 89 | * LoveIsAWeakness: Holds this mindset due to his upbringing as a merciless killer with the Unsullied. Doesn't stop him from falling for Missandei. |
| 90 | * MoralityPet: Missandei is this for him, causing him to awaken his long buried humanity as a result of his Unsullied training. [[spoiler:Naturally, when Missandei dies, Grey Worm reverts back to his cold demeanor, only this time, its laced with barely contained fury at the world.]] |
| 91 | * NiceGuy: Despite his stoic demeanor, a literal lifetime of slavery, senseless brutality, and combat training, it hasn't stopped him from being cuddly. [[spoiler:He loses this trait when Missandei dies, turning completely cold. When Daenarys presents him with Missandei's last and only possession, a slave collar, Grey Worm chucks it in the fire due to what the collar represents, as well as trying to let go of the painful reminder that his love is gone forever.]] |
| 92 | * NiceJobBreakingItHero: [[spoiler: When Daenerys' fleet is ambushed by Euron Greyjoy, he orders Missandei to get onto the skiff and away from the main ship so she'll be safe. However, this actually allows Euron to capture her, eventually resulting in her death]]. |
| 93 | * NotSoAboveItAll: Even the stoic and no-nonsense Grey Worm can't help but be roped into silly little contests with Daario. On a more poignant level, despite being a eunuch he is implied in "Two Swords" to have a crush on Missandei, which Daario [[PokeThePoodle good-naturedly taunts him over.]] |
| 94 | ** He also makes jokes. Hilariously serious ones. |
| 95 | * NotSoStoic: After he's badly injuring trying (unsuccessfully) to protect Ser Barristan, he cries and tells Missandei he's sorry he couldn't save him and that for once, he was afraid of dying because it meant he would never see her again. [[spoiler: In "The Last of the Starks", he completely goes to pieces when Missandei is captured and later killed. In "The Bells", Grey Worm demonstrates terrifying ferocity against the surrendering Lannister army, killing anyone who gets in his way, all while in a cold fury]]. |
| 96 | * OneManArmy: [[spoiler:During "The Long Night", everyone is clustered in groups of two or three (for example Jaime, Brienne and Podrick form one such group while The Hound and Beric search through the castle and Tormund and Gendry are BackToBackBadasses). Grey Worm on the other hand is holding his own in the courtyard with no other defenders around him apart from a downed Sam, meaning he has to do the work of two people]]. |
| 97 | * PromotionToOpeningTitles: In the final season. |
| 98 | * RevengeBeforeReason: [[spoiler:He is overcome with pure rage thanks to Cersei beheading Missandei the previous episode that during the Siege of Kings Landing as soon as he sees Daenerys fly off to attack the city, he attacks the surrendering Lannister soldiers in spite of the agreement set out before hand. The result is the loss of many more lives.]] |
| 99 | * RousingSpeech: The normally taciturn and quiet Grey Worm gives a short, simple but powerful speech to a group of slaves debating whether or not to turn on their masters. |
| 100 | -->'''Grey Worm''': This one is called Grey Worm. I was taken as a baby by the Masters of Astapor, raised and trained as Unsullied. Now I fight for Daenerys, the Mother of Dragons and Breaker of Chains... There are three slaves in this city for every Master. No one can give you your freedom, brothers. If you want it, you must take it. |
| 101 | * ShieldBash: One of his fighting techniques. |
| 102 | * ShipTease: With Missandei, as she starts to teach him the Common Tongue. They have a BigDamnKiss in "Kill the Boy" after he is wounded by the Sons of the Harpy. Becomes a true relationship several seasons later. |
| 103 | * SoHappyTogether: [[spoiler: Prior to the battle with the White Walkers, he and Missandei talk about leaving Westeros for Naath (Missandei's peaceful island home) once Daenerys takes the throne and living happily ever after together. They both survive the battle of Winterfell, but in the next episode Missandei is captured by the Lannisters and Grey Worm can only watch helplessly as she's killed]]. |
| 104 | * SoleSurvivor: [[spoiler:As of the series finale, he is the last remaining member of Daenerys' court from Essos]]. |
| 105 | * TheStoic: It comes with being an Unsullied, trained from birth to feel no fear and remain utterly disciplined at all times. |
| 106 | * TeethClenchedTeamwork: Distrusts Tyrion as a foreigner and hates the diplomatic tactic of appeasing the former slavers, but lends his support because his Queen trusts the dwarf. |
| 107 | * TheTeetotaler: The Unsullied don't drink. In "No One", Tyrion tries to goad Grey Worm into drinking wine, but he puts it down after one sip, remarking that it tastes like "it has turned". |
| 108 | * UndyingLoyalty: To Dany. [[spoiler:So much so that he doesn't bat an eye when slaughtering innocents and surrendering soldiers.]] |
| 109 | * WhatTheHellHero: Calls out Tyrion on negotiating with the slavers, pointing out that they don't see him, Missandei, or Tyrion as people and even self-interest won't stop them from trying to reinstate slavery. |
| 110 | * YouNoTakeCandle: Missandei is teaching him the Common Tongue, though he has a ways to go. |

| 114 | !!White Rat |
| 115 | !!!'''Played By:''' Marcos James |
| 116 | |
| 117 | A member of the Unsullied, slave soldiers trained by the Good Masters of Astapor. Like all Unsullied, his birth name was cast aside and he was given a new, dehumanizing name as part of the Good Masters' training to shed all sense of self-worth and individuality from their chattel. |
| 118 | |
| 119 | Along with thousands of his 'brothers', White Rat was purchased and liberated by Daenerys Targaryen and chose to fight for her as a free man. Like many Unsullied he chose to keep his slave name after his liberation. |
| 120 | ---- |
| 121 | * AdaptationalNameChange: Called "Stalwart Shield" in the books. |
| 122 | * HoneyTrap: He falls victim to one, when a prostitute he sees regularly sells him out to the Sons of the Harpy. |
| 123 | * ManChild: Due to being deprived of a childhood, he seeks childhood comforts such as being held and sung to. |
| 124 | * PlatonicProstitution: Due to being an Unsullied and therefore a eunuch, White Rat visits a prostitute only to be held and gently sung to sleep. |
| 125 | * SacrificialLamb: He is the first onscreen casualty of the Sons of the Harpy and the first named character to die in Season 5. |
| 126 | * SlashedThroat: By one of the Sons of the Harpy. |
| 127 | * WeHardlyKnewYe: He only appears for his death scene. Poor bastard. |

Under the leadership of Daario Naharis, their current commander, they form a vital part of her campaign in Slaver's Bay. They currently serve as the City Watch to Meereen. |

| 149 | ->''"I was the last to join your army. I'm not your general or a member of your Queensguard or the commander of your Unsullied. My mother was a whore. I come from nothing. And before long, I will return to nothing. Let me kill this man for you."'' |
| 150 | |
| 151 | Once a lieutenant in the Second Sons mercenary company, Daario Naharis killed his captains when he refused to assassinate Daenerys. He then took command of the Second Sons, and defected to Daenerys. Now he serves as a commander in Daenerys' army and as an unofficial member of her Queensguard. |
| 152 | ---- |
| 153 | * AdaptationalAttractiveness: Instead of the dyed blue hair and golden tooth, TV Daario has more conventional good looks. |
| 154 | * AdaptationalBadass: it's easy to forget, but we don't actually see him do much fighting in the books. We see him bringing the heads of the other Stormcrow commanders, but that's it. Meanwhile in the show he is kicking all sorts of ass and is practically a OneManArmy. |
| 155 | * AdaptationalHairstyleChange: In the books, he's described as having curly hair that reaches his collar and a long beard styled into three prongs. In Season 3, Daario (as played by Ed Skrein) is clean-shaven with long wavy hair (some of which is worn in braids). After Daario was recast in Season 4 (now played by Michiel Huisman), he sported a beard and shorter, curlier hair that more closely matched his book description, although his hair and beard were both much shorter than the book version's; his hair also lacks the bright dyes the book version's often uses. Daario's flamboyant look was greatly toned down overall, presumably because it might have looked too silly and distracting onscreen (and thus making him [[MrFanservice more plausible]] as Daenerys' love interest). |
| 156 | * AdaptationalIntelligence: In the show Daario proves thoughtful and intelligent despite his poor upbringing and violent past, providing Dany with sound political advice several times. In the books, he's a simple brute who always advocates AttackAttackAttack or MurderIsTheBestSolution because he's interested in little outside his chosen skill set of fighting and fucking. |
| 157 | * AdaptationalDyeJob: Inverted. His hair and beard are dyed bright blue in the books, while his hair is a natural brown in the series. |
| 158 | * AdaptationalHeroism: He overall seems a lot friendlier and less off a sleaze than his book counterpart. Yes he is all for killing his queen's enemies, but he will also vouch for Jorah's return to court after he helps save Daenerys and shows respect to Tyrion's talents of governing. |
| 159 | * AgentPeacock: In Season 3.[[labelnote:From the books...]]In the show, Daario's garb and appearance is toned down from in the novels, where he favors fancy clothes with lace and dyes his beard a bright blue.[[/labelnote]] |
| 160 | * AllMenArePerverts: He makes no secret of his lust to Daenerys when they meet. And he kills his two fellow leaders and pledges his entire army to Daenerys because he wants her for himself. |
| 161 | * AntiHero: Of the [[PragmaticHero pragmatic]] kind. He vouches for some ruthless measures when it comes to dealing with Dany's enemies, but nonetheless seems devoted to her cause. |
| 162 | %%* AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: The only way you rise to the top of the Second Sons. |
| 163 | %%* BackToBackBadasses: With Jorah Mormont and Grey Worm. It is awesome. |
| 164 | * BadassBoast: He gets asked if he wants to use a horse against Meereen's champion. He asks why on earth he would want or need one, and proves he can back his boast up. |
| 165 | * BloodKnight: He believes that the gods gave two sources of pleasure to man: fucking a woman who wants to fuck him and killing a man who wants to kill him. |

| 168 | * ChivalrousPervert: He won't pay for sex or rape women, because he prefers making women ''want'' to fuck him instead. |
| 169 | * CloudCuckooLander: Ed Skrein's version was more than a little unhinged, complete with a truly bizarre but non-evil worldview. Michiel Huisman's portrayal is much more grounded, though still not completely rational (i.e. his [[ShipTease ridiculous-but-sweet little contest for Daenerys' favor]] with Grey Worm). |
| 170 | * ColonelBadass: To both the Second Sons and Daenerys' army in general since his KlingonPromotion. |
| 171 | * CombatPragmatist: His solution to a champion on horseback charging at him? Throw his knife at the horse's head, killing it instantly and then killing the champion. |
| 172 | * CompositeCharacter: He takes the AdaptedOut Strong Belwas' role of fighting Meereen's champion Oznak zo Pahl. In Season 5, he has also taken up Belwas' role as a former pit fighter who wants the practice resumed. In Season 5, he also replaces the AdaptedOut Shavepate as Dany's ruthless advisor, who, quite ironically, considers Dario himself to be a loose end and expendable in the books to the point of advocating leaving him for dead when he becomes a hostage. |
| 173 | * CoolSword: The hilts of his arakh and dagger are shaped like naked women. |
| 174 | * CurbStompBattle: At the end of "Breaker of Chains", he disposes of Meereen's champion quickly and with little effort. |
| 175 | * EthicalSlut: He's got more principles (that he actually sticks to) than most characters on the show, and is definitely a slut. |
| 176 | %%* TheHedonist: He loves sex and fighting. |
| 177 | * HeelFaceTurn: Formerly a mercenary and member of the Second Sons, he kills Mero and Prendahl and joins Dany. |
| 178 | * HiddenDepths: When delivering Daenerys the heads of her enemies and other shows of valor fail to impress his Queen, Daario decides to take her more seriously, making a surprisingly astute statesman for a wandering merc. He counsels Dany to adapt to the customs and society of the slaves she is freeing if she hopes to effectively lead them. By using the metaphor of three different flowering plants, he not only successfully continues his long game courtship but also imparts genuinely useful advice to Dany considering the social issues she will likely face in Season 4 and onwards. |
| 179 | * HiredGuns: As a mercenary captain, along with the Second Sons as a whole, though it's implied he serves Daenerys for free (presumably he still pays his men, or else they wouldn't stick around). |
| 180 | * HonorBeforeReason: An odd example. He did not approve of Mero and Prendahl's plan to kill Daenerys, mainly on account of her beauty, and when they tried to kill him for refusing to carry out the assassination, he killed them. Still, Daario doesn't have what you'd typically call a sense of honor, it's more that he really doesn't like being told to do things he doesn't want to do. |
| 181 | * {{Hunk}}: The Michiel Huisman version, at least in comparison to Ed Skrein's PrettyBoy interpretation. |
| 182 | * IconicSequelCharacter: Doesn't appear in the series until Season 3. |
| 183 | * ImprobableAimingSkills: In "Breaker of Chains", he throws a knife at a charging horse and hits it in the ''eye'' from about twenty feet, killing it instantly and tossing the rider into decapitation range. |
| 184 | * {{Irony}}: He spends a lot of time mocking Jorah for being the extra leg in their love triangle with Daenerys. Ultimately, though, when Jorah leaves Daenerys to go find a cure for his disease, she tearfully insists that he return to her once he does, as she needs him by her side; on the other hand, she later breaks up with Daario and leaves him behind to govern Meereen in her absence, and doesn't really even feel bad about it. |
| 185 | ** And in the end, Daenerys doesn't end up either one. Instead, she falls for the honorable King of the North Jon Snow. |
| 186 | * JawDrop: When Daario sees Daenerys' immunity to fire for the first time, Jorah and the Unsullied immediately kneel but he can't help but stand there with his jaw down in awe. |
| 187 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: His taunts can be nasty but he does treat people respectfully when the situation is serious as shown when he sees Jorah is affected with greyscale, he drops the taunt about him being old and is visibly worried. |
| 188 | * KlingonPromotion: By killing Mero and Prendahl, he takes over the Second Sons. |
| 189 | * KickTheDog: Despite his charm, wit, and seeming heroism, he has no problem in delivering some truly nasty taunts towards others. |
| 190 | ** He mocks Grey Worm for being a eunuch (and thus unable to act on his crush on Missandei). Eventually, his teasing becomes [[PokeThePoodle more good-natured.]] |
| 191 | ** It's more understandable, due to the obvious LoveTriangle, but he is keen on expressing and remarking to Jorah how Daenerys has chosen him over the older man. It's particulalry nasty, because, in Jorah's case, it's AllLoveIsUnrequited. |
| 192 | *** After he had sex with Daenerys in "Mockingbird", he bumps into Jorah half-dressed, patting him on his back and telling him he will find her in a good mood. |
| 193 | *** He makes Jorah say aloud that he's in love with Daenereys in "The Red Woman". |
| 194 | ---->'''Daario:''' There’s no escaping her, eh? You keep coming back. Why?\ |
| 195 | '''Jorah:''' You know why.\ |
| 196 | '''Daario:''' Isn’t it frustrating -- wanting someone who doesn’t want you back?\ |
| 197 | '''Jorah:''' Of course it is. |
| 198 | *** He makes fun of Jorah for being too old to "ride the dragon" in "The Book of Stranger." |
| 199 | * TheLancer: To Daenerys' TheHeroine. |
| 200 | * LightningBruiser: In an OffscreenMomentOfAwesome, he kills both Mero and Prendahl, captains of one of the more dangerous and organized mercenary bands in Essos, even though they draw first. In "The Rains of Castamere" he seems to kill more Yunkish soldiers than Grey Worm and Jorah combined! And then, in "Breaker of Chains", he becomes Daenerys' champion against Meereen's champion (allegedly on the ground that, of all the volunteers, he's the most expendable, but it's clearly part of his and Daenerys' extended ShipTease). The Meereenese champion is mounted, and charges him with lance. Daario responds by throwing his knife into the horse's head, killing it instantly. Then he kills the dismounted rider with one stroke. |
| 201 | * LooksLikeJesus: Once Micheil Huisman takes over the role staring Season 4. |
| 202 | * LoveAtFirstSight: Currently played with. |
| 203 | * LovableRogue: A mercenary with wit, charm and a very badass demeanour. |
| 204 | * LovableSexManiac: The reason he remains this way is because he's not a rapist and has some values. |
| 205 | * MoreExpendableThanYou: He's sent to fight Meereen's champion despite being the ''fourth'' to volunteer, after Dany declared Grey Worm, Barristan Selmy, and Jorah Mormont too important to risk. |
| 206 | * MrFanservice: Gets a few nude scenes with Daenerys, not that it really stands out on this show. |
| 207 | * NonchalantDodge: He simply steps out of range of Meereen's archers. |
| 208 | * ThePornomancer: Implied. Proven absolutely when he becomes the first man to share Dany's bed after her departed husband. |
| 209 | * PrettyBoy: Only when played by Ed Skrein. Michael Huisman is a bit rougher around the edges and manly. |
| 210 | * PromotedToOpeningTitles: In Season 5. |
| 211 | * PutOnABus: |
| 212 | ** Dany sends him to recapture Yunkai and he isn't seen for the rest of Season 4, in a bit of RealLifeWritesThePlot thanks to Huisman's role on ''Series/OrphanBlack''. He's back for Season 5, however. |
| 213 | ** He's then the only one ''not'' on the bus as he's left behind to keep an eye on Meereen as Dany sails to Westeros, likely never to be seen again. |
| 214 | * RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil: Daario has a hard time respecting people who rape or pay for sex; he thinks that sex is only meaningful and[=/=]or enjoyable when both parties want it, which might explain why it was so easy for him to kill Mero and Prendahl, neither of whom have any such compunctions. |
| 215 | * RelationshipUpgrade: With Daenerys in Season 4. She breaks up with him in the Season 6 finale, however. |
| 216 | * {{Retool}}: Due to TheOtherDarrin; Whereas Ed Skrein portrayed Daario as a swaggering and [[CloudCuckooLander entertainingly bonkers]] AgentPeacock meant to invoke AllGirlsWantBadBoys from Daenerys, Michiel Huisman's performance is much more subdued and relaxed, giving Daario a WarriorPoet[=/=]{{Ronin}} vibe. |
| 217 | * SelfMadeMan: A literal SonOfAWhore, he's risen high, and he knows it; the son of a drunk whore who sold him to get more wine, he then rose to nationwide fame as a pit fighter before joining the Second Sons and becoming the right hand man to the Mother of Dragons. He also believes he'll return to nothing, and seems pretty okay with it. |
| 218 | * ShipTease: Since the end of Season 3 with Daenerys. They get a RelationshipUpgrade in Season 4. |
| 219 | ** ShipSinking: However, Daenerys dumps him in Season 6 and leaves him behind to govern Meereen in her absence, since she needs to prepare for the possibility of marriage to forge an alliance, and having a lover with her with complicate such a matter. |
| 220 | %%* SmugSmiler: Manages to be cat smile due to the shape of his lips. This is gone now that Michiel Huisman plays him. |
| 221 | %%* SonOfAWhore: In "Breaker of Chains", he admits this about himself without shame. |
| 222 | * TheStarscream: To Mero and Prendahl. Though, as he points out, it's not betrayal if they tried to kill you ''first''. |
| 223 | * TallDarkAndHandsome: He already had the tall and handsome parts down from the beginning, then Michiel Huisman brought his dark hair to the character. |
| 224 | * TookALevelInKindness: He's certainly mellowed out and acts relatively less hedonistic since being recast. The arrogant bad boy characterization has been toned down considerably. |
| 225 | * WarriorPoet: Some of the things he says give off this vibe, such as "I fight for beauty." and "The gods gave men two gifts to entertain ourselves before we die. The thrill of fucking a woman who wants to be fucked, and the thrill of killing a man who wants to kill you." Michiel Huisman's performance gives off this vibe more than the swaggering bad boy interpretation of Ed Skrein. |
| 226 | * WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Ever since the end of Season 6, nothing's been heard of him and status of Slaver's Bay. [[spoiler:It's unknown whether he heard of Daenerys' death or his reaction to it when the show ended]]. |
| 227 | %%* WildCard: Exemplified in this conversation: |

| 239 | |
| 240 | One of Khal Moro's men, who ascended to become one of Daenerys' generals. |
| 241 | ---- |
| 242 | * AscendedExtra: Used to be a nameless Dothraki ko from Moro's khalassar before he got upgraded to one of Daenerys' generals. |
| 243 | * BattleThralls: While they fight for a more righteous cause, they're still pillaging barbarians (even if being kept in check by Daenerys), and Cersei is able to easily spin the Dothraki troops as "brutal foreign savages". |
| 244 | * BloodKnight: Seems somewhat disappointed with the performance of Lannister soldiers, clearly expecting more of a fight. |
| 245 | * CadreOfForeignBodyguards: Qhono seems to act as Daenerys's bodyguard. Qhono and a few of his men always loom in Daenerys's throne room, watching. When Jon Snow takes one step forward, Qhono gets in a defensive position. |
| 246 | * CanonForeigner: He has no book counterpart and was created solely for the show. |
| 247 | * DefeatMeansFriendship: In a sense. Daenerys wipes out all the Khals in a raging inferno and then walks off, unscathed. This is awe-inspiring enough that Qhono (and many others) kneel and pledge fealty to her. Qhono, for his part, is shown to be very loyal. |
| 248 | * DragonAscendant: He used to be one of Khal Moro's bloodriders before Daenerys killed him. He is now one of her Khalasar's leaders alongside her other generals. |
| 249 | * DroppedABridgeOnHim: [[spoiler: Is KilledOffscreen during the Dothraki charge against the Army of the Dead and is only seen briefly as a wight afterward. Storyboards for his unfilmed death scene reveal that a wight giant killed him and his horse with its club.]] |
| 250 | * HeelFaceTurn: Was (and in many ways, still is) a brutal rampaging warrior who wanted to rape and pillage everything in his sight, but now he's steadfastly loyal to Daenerys, who keeps his impulses in check. |
| 251 | * {{Hypocrite}}: Tells Tyrion that his people (the Lannisters) are weak... Except you know, they are fighting against a Dothraki horde and ''a dragon''. Not a fair strategy. (Not that the Dothraki care much for fairness on the battlefield . . .) |
| 252 | * MookFaceTurn: Went from one of Khal Moro's mooks to one of Daenerys's followers. |
| 253 | * MookLieutenant: Qhono effectively becomes a heroic version of the trope, being the apparent leader of [[TheHorde the Dothraki]] sworn to Daenerys. |
| 254 | * RedemptionPromotion: Kneeling and accepting Daenerys caused him to go from a lowly bloodrider to one of the main generals in Daenerys's army. |
| 255 | * SmugSnake: Sneers at Tyrion's face about Lannister's men weakness. |
| 256 | * TheStoic: He is very economic on facial expressions. |

| 268 | ---- |
| 269 | * AloofDarkHairedGirl: To anyone but Dany, but especially to Rakharo. She mellows in Season 2. |
| 270 | * BelligerentSexualTension: With Rakharo. They snipe at each other, but their argumentative relationship hides genuine feelings for each other. Turns into LoveHurts when he is killed in Season 2. |
| 271 | * {{Catchphrase}}: ''It is known''. |
| 272 | * CompositeCharacter: In the books, she is one half of a [[ThoseTwoGuys Those Two]] [[DistaffCounterpart Gals]] combo with fellow handmaiden Jhiqui; on the show, Jhiqui seems largely an extra, while Irri has gained a lot more personality. |
| 273 | * DeadpanSnarker: Largely in her interactions with Rakharo. |
| 274 | * DeathByAdaptation: She's still alive in the books, but was offed via RealLifeWritesThePlot. |
| 275 | * FishOutOfWater: At least in Qarth. |
| 276 | * HeroicBSOD: When Rakharo's horse returns, with his head stuffed inside a bag. She breaks down because, since his body hasn't been burned, he won't be able to cross over to the 'Night Lands', the afterlife in Dothraki belief. |
| 277 | * HyperAwareness: She realizes Daenerys is pregnant before she is showing. |
| 278 | * InsistentTerminology: When Doreah says that Daenerys will look like a Princess in the dress that Xaro Xhoan Daxos has given her, Irri corrects her. Daenerys is a ''Khaleesi'' (Queen), not a Princess. |
| 279 | * IronicEcho: In the deleted scene where she's murdered, Doreah taunts her with her own catchphrase as she crushes her windpipe, after casually commenting on the strange dichotomy of pain and pleasure that people experience whilst being strangled. "It is known!" |
| 280 | * MyMasterRightOrWrong: Like Rakharo, she seems often less than thrilled with Daenerys' decisions, but still remains faithfully at her side. |
| 281 | * PassiveAggressiveCombat: With Doreah, who she competes with for attention from Dany. |
| 282 | * ServileSnarker: She's wonderfully snarky, although mostly in her native tongue. |

| 294 | ---- |
| 295 | * AdaptationDyeJob: Described as blonde and blue-eyed in the books. |
| 296 | * AdaptationalVillainy: In the books, she's loyal to Dany to the extent where Dany stops her Khalasar in the Red Wastes so she can die in peace. In the series, she willingly betrays Dany to Xaro and, in a deleted scene, even murders Irri. In her commentary on the Season 2 finale, Emilia Clarke states that there was another deleted scene where she explained her reasons for betraying Dany, clearly speaking directly to the people who were upset about this change, which appears to happen for little motivation in the final product. Unfortunately, she doesn't go into detail on what those reasons were. |
| 297 | * AintTooProudToBeg: She's crying and begging Daenerys when she's about to be locked up. |
| 298 | * AlmostKiss: While teaching Dany the 'art of seduction', Dany leans in to kiss her before having a mild freak-out and halting. |
| 299 | * CompositeCharacter: In a way, with Shae from the books. While the Shae from the series is the book character in name only, Doreah plays the character's book role of a BitchInSheepsClothing playing the part of a HookerWithAHeartOfGold, who eventually betrays a POV character when a better opportunity comes along. She's also killed because of this betrayal. |
| 300 | * FaceHeelTurn: She turns on Dany to side with Xaro Xhoan Daxos... and pays dearly for it. |
| 301 | * GeekyTurnon: Doreah really, ''really'' wants to see a dragon. She gets her wish, and is delighted. |
| 302 | * HappinessInSlavery: This is the image she presents, at least. She seems quite happy to be Dany's handmaiden and Viserys' bedwarmer, although considering her later betrayal it's possible she had some hidden grievances. |
| 303 | * HookerWithAHeartOfGold: Initially she appeared to be this; she was friendly with Dany and even taught her the art of seduction that would win over Khal Drogo. However, she eventually revealed her true colours as an opportunist. |
| 304 | * KarmicDeath: She betrayed her people for Xaro. She's locked into a room with him for both of them to slowly starve to death. |
| 305 | * MadeASlave: Sold to a brothel at age ''nine''. |
| 306 | * MsFanservice: She wears very skimpy outfits, very sultry and got at least two or three nude scenes. |

| 308 | * SealedRoomInTheMiddleOfNowhere: Her final fate. |
| 309 | * SexSlave: She was raised in a 'pleasure house' in Lys. |
| 310 | * SexyMentor: She's the one who teaches Dany the "ways of love". |
| 311 | * SparedByTheAdaptation: Subverted. In the books, she dies in the Red Waste, which doesn't happen to her in the show. However, Season 2 ends with her trapped in Xaro's vault with no prospect of escape. |

When they get to the gates, the Thirteen show the greatest interest in Daenerys because of her dragons, not because of her bloodline. Kovarro is, in effect, a very skilled PR agent. |

| 345 | * ArmorIsUseless: He believes a Dothraki would defeat an armored knight in a duel because of speed and freedom of movement. Ser Jorah's duel with Qotho convinces him otherwise. |
| 346 | * BelligerentSexualTension: With Irri. They snipe at each other, but their argumentative relationship hides genuine feelings for each other. Turns into LoveHurts when he is killed in Season 2. |
| 347 | * CompositeCharacter: He seems to be two of Dany's Dothraki bodyguards (Jhogo, the whip, and Rakharo, the arakh) combined into one man. The character was originally going to be called Jhogo, but [[ExecutiveMeddling executives]] thought it sounded too similar to Drogo and changed it to Rakharo to avoid confusion. |
