* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: After besieging his own king in Maegor's Holdfast, Ser Marston clearly had a crisis of conscience and began following Aegon III's orders again, attempting to arrest the conspirators who had framed the Rogare family and the previous Hand, Lord Thaddeus Rowan, for various crimes.
* NoodleIncident: The exact process by which he became Hand of the King is unknown. Oddly, Grand Maester Munkun, who was one of the regents of Aegon III, refused to discuss it and did not write about the matter in his ''True Telling''.
* NotHelpingYourCase: During the period when Aegon III barricaded himself in Maegor's Holdfast to protect his brother's Lyseni wife from those at court who sought to arrest her and the rest of her family, Marston tried to convince the boy king to surrender, insisting that as long as Waters stood at his side, no man would do him harm. Aegon shouted back that Waters had already proved that claim false when he'd forced Aegon to watch his mother be torn apart by his uncle's dragon.

* TheAce: Some say he was the greatest Kingsguard knight to have ever lived, which is definitely saying something considering how many freak badasses have been members over the last 300 years.
* ArchEnemy: To Ser Morgil.
* BadassInDistress: He was saved from a pit of vipers by King Baelor.
* BigBrotherInstinct: Aemon and Naerys' "forbidden romance" has been immortalized in song but considering singers have a habit for stretching the truth, it is possible Aemon was simply a protective brother concerned for his sister's well-being.
* BlackKnight: As the Knight of Tears.
* BrotherSisterIncest: If the rumours about him and Naerys were true.
* CoolHelmet: He was called the Dragonknight because his helmet was decorated with a three-headed dragon wrought in white gold.
* CoolUncle: To King Daeron II and his surviving siblings, possibly even including Daemon (he didn't learn his sword skills from Aegon, that's for sure). Probably also a surrogate father, since Aegon the Unworthy wasn't exactly Dad of the Year material. It's quite possible that Aegon was more annoyed with Aemon "the Cool Uncle" than he was with Aemon "the NiceGuy to everybody".
* CourtlyLove: His relationship with Queen Naerys. Deconstructed when it was claimed it went beyond this trope and that Naerys had actually given birth to his son (though it's likely those were just rumors as there was little evidence to support them).
* DoggedNiceGuy: To Naerys.
* DragonKnight: He was a famous knight with the dragon [[AnimalMotifs motif]] of the Targaryen family. He was even known as "the Dragonknight" because crest on his helm featured a three-headed dragon wrought in white gold.
* HeroicSacrifice: He died saving Aegon IV from an assassination attempt by two members of House Toyne who sought revenge for the death of Ser Terrence Toyne.
* KnightInShiningArmor: Beloved by the people as an honorable and chivalrous knight.
* LongDeadBadass: He was one of greatest members of the Kingsguard ever and, as stated above, is possibly the greatest knight who has ever lived.
* MyMasterRightOrWrong: No knight took it to his extreme level of devotion of service to the patently unworthy Aegon IV, who raped his sister-wife Naerys (Aemon's sister and close friend) and submitted her to a lifelong HumiliationConga by repeatedly cheating on her. Aegon IV repaid Aemon by accusing him of fathering Daeron II, despite which Aemon still committed a HeroicSacrifice to save Aegon IV from the vengeful Toynes (who again, Aegon IV provoked by brutally killing Ser Terrence Toyne).
* NoodleIncident: It's not yet explained why Aemon dueled with Lord Cregan Stark. Or who won.
* PosthumousCharacter: He's invoked repeatedly in the present as a representative of bygone chivalry.
* ShadowArchetype: [[InvertedTrope Inverted]]. His story is remarkably similar to Jaime's (renowned Kingsguard, dubious relationship with his sister the Queen that eventually resulted in a massive war, possible father of the queen's children), but Aemon is revered as a legendary KnightInShiningArmor, while Jaime is reviled as the dishonorable Kingslayer for being TheOathbreaker.
* TakingTheBullet: Survived an arrow protecting his cousin Daeron I in his first invasion. He tried to save him again when Daeron I returned but he failed and got captured (while other Kingsguard died and one surrendered). He finally did die protecting Aegon the Unworthy.
* WarriorPrince: A Targaryen prince and Lord Commander of the Kingsguard.

A knight of House Corbray and Kingsguard to Daeron II. He fought during the First Blackfyre Rebellion, at the battle of the Redgrass Field in Lord Arryn's van. He dueled with Daemon Blackfyre for nearly an hour before being defeated. The duel was considered a sight to behold, partly because of the clashing of two Valyrian steel swords against each other. Severely injured from the duel, Daemon ordered Redtusk to bring Gwayne to the rear to see to his wounds. He wielded Lady Forlorn, the ancestral Valyrian steel blade of House Corbray.
