* BigBrotherBully: Nowhere close to how ''god awful'' a brother he was in canon, but he sure isn't nice to his brother either. The first scene we see them together in has Joffrey almost throw Tommen's new cat out a window because of his brother's perceived weak will. Granted, he just got out of being mocked by his own father at his first Small Council meeting, so he obviously was pissed beyond reason, and even then he doesn't go through with it.

* ColorCodedEyes: He inherited purple eyes from the Dayne side of his family. However, since this trait is also shared with Targaryens, combined with the armor he wore during the tourney granting him an uncanny resemblance to Rhaegar; he caused Robert to send his Kingsguard down to fight him due to his appearance alone.
