* AdaptationNameChange: Applies to all bastard characters, since they get their surname from (usually) their father's bending, not the region they grow up in.
** Jon Snow become Jon Frost, as his alleged father (Ned Stark) is an icebender. Some characters call him ''Jon Fyre'' when they want him to know they know his real father is firebender Rhaegar.
** Ramsay Snow becomes Ramsay Gore, being the son of a bloodbender.
** Robert's bastards Gendry Waters and Mya Stone become Gendry and Mya Soil.
** Upon being bastardized, Joffrey, Myrcella and Tommen are given the surname Stone.
** Aegon IV's bastards, upon being born, were named Voyd, due to him being regarded as a nonbender at the time. After he revealed himself as a lightningbender and legitimized them all, several adopted the name Blackfyre, as opposed to the traditional bastard surname Lightfyre. Exceptions are Bloodraven (who kept the Voyd name) and Shiera (who went by Fyrestar in honor of her firebender mother).
** Averted with the Sand Snakes, since their father is a sandbender.



** Melisandre, whose role in canon lies somewhere between anti-hero and anti-villain, seems to be fully on the good side.
** [[spoiler: Shiera Fyrestar]], who was TheVamp is canon, seems to have become a nice lady who genuinely wants to take part of the Avatar's cause.



** Characters from Qarth and Meereen arcs haven't appeared (yet), as Daenerys goes straight to Astapor and stays there.
