| 21 | The Kingsguard who served the Targaryen Dynasty and appear in the Prequels and Companion Media are mentioned here. Entries are listed in descending order of regime. Each member is listed with the king who they ended their service under. |
| 22 | ---- |
| 23 | * BadassDecay: InUniverse. By the time of the main series, the Kingsguard has gone from one of the highest institutions of knighthood in the Seven Kingdoms to a laughingstock. Formerly ''the'' place to be for the best knights in the land, after Barristan Selmy is unwillingly released from his position it's taken up by political appointments or knights of little comparative skill. While there are some knights in it that still take their position and oaths seriously, new appointees like Osmund Kettleblack don't really fill people with confidence. |
| 24 | * TheBrute: Ser Joffrey Staunton aided the future King Aegon IV to get his mistress Megette by threatening Megette's husband. |
| 25 | * HeroicBastard: Lord Commander "Red" Robert Flowers. |
| 26 | * HighTurnoverRate: Rhaenyra's Queensguard went through three Lord Commanders. |
| 27 | * LongDeadBadass: The Kingsguard has created some of Westeros' best warriors. |
| 28 | * NoodleIncident: Some Kingsguard knight's funny nicknames and exploits remain unexplained. |

| 37 | * MinorMajorCharacter: Despite being the very first members of the Kingsguard, very little is known about their deeds and manner of death. |
| 38 | * RuleOfSeven: The reason Visenya and Aegon chose seven Kingsguard was to honor the Faith of the Seven. |
| 39 | * SiblingTeam: Ser Gregor and Griffith Goode. |
| 40 | * UndyingLoyalty: The basis for the original selection was not talent with the sword but loyalty. Visenya wanted loyal knights that would die for their king, not necessarily the best fighters in the realm. |
| 41 | * WorkingClassHero: Ser Humfrey the Mummer was the only peasant member of Aegon's Kingsguard. Everyone else was noble born. |

| 63 | ---- |
| 64 | * GossipEvolution: He saved the life of his king from Poor Fellows who climbed the scaffolding of his manse. Over the years, the retelling made the story more grandiose by saying that the assassins climbed the walls of the Red Keep itself. |
| 65 | * MyNaymeIs: Raymont instead of "Raymond". |
| 66 | * TangledFamilyTree: No one knows which Lord Baratheon Raymont is son of. It might be Orys or Davos. |
| 67 | * WhatHappenedToTheMouse: After his one famous deed, he completely disappears from history. He's possibly one of the two Kingsguard that were killed by Rupert Falwell during the Battle of the Great Fork, but there's no way to be sure. |

| 79 | * DuelToTheDeath: He was killed in one of these at the Battle Beneath The Gods Eye (one of the few casualties on Maegor's side), slain by Lord Corbray. |
| 80 | * SinsOfTheFather: An inverted example: the Poor Fellows murdered Davos's elderly father for his loyalty to Maegor. |

| 87 | ---- |
| 88 | * TheBrute: Implied he's one to Maegor. One rumor about Queen Ceryse's death states he had been ordered to cut out her tongue but slit her throat because she struggled and his knife slipped. |
| 89 | * CruelAndUnusualDeath: When Maegor's regime was crumbling, Owen Bush was murdered at a brothel and found with his member cut off and stuffed in his mouth. |
| 90 | * EvenEvilHasStandards: He was the only one who offered any opposition to the torture of Maegor's nephew Viserys after his mother and siblings fled Dragonstone, suggesting that the Prince may not know where his mother had gone, but Maegor ignored him. |
| 91 | -->'''Maegor''': Chain him in a black cell and question him sharply. Ask him where his mother has gone. |
| 92 | -->'''Owen Bush''': He may not know. |
| 93 | -->'''Maegor''': Then let him die. Perhaps the bitch will return for his funeral. |
| 94 | * GroinAttack: His murderers cut his manhood off and stuffed it down his throat. |
| 95 | * TheOathbreaker: Considering that he was found murdered in a brothel, it is clear that Owen did not keep to his vow of celibacy. |

| 105 | * WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Unlike Davos Darklyn and Owen Bush, there's no mention of what became of him. ''Fire and Blood'' reveals he was executed for his part in the death of Tyanna. |

| 114 | * FamousAncestor: Although he's also the only known member of House Langward. |

| 125 | The nephew of Damon Morrigen the Devout, he became the first Lord Commander of the Kingsguard under King Jaehaerys I. |
| 126 | ---- |
| 127 | * AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: Because of the short-work he made of Langward, he was soon enough anointed as Lord Commander. |
| 128 | * BigDamnHeroes: He and Joffrey Doggett were this for Queen Alysanne, saving her from a trio of Septas who tried to assassinate the pregnant Queen at Maidenpool. |

| 132 | * YouShallNotPass: When Rogar Baratheon ordered his men to separate Jahaerys and Alysanne, Gyles stepped forward and said any Baratheon man who tried to get past him and his Sworn Brothers would die for it. |
| 133 | -->'''Gyles Morrigen''': Come no closer. Any man who lays a hand on our King and Queen will die today. |

| 141 | Grand Captain of the Warrior's Sons during the reign of King Maegor Targaryen. Later appointed Lord Commander of the Kingsguard. |
| 142 | ---- |
| 143 | * BaitAndSwitch: When Jaehaerys offered him a place in the Kingsguard, Joffrey drew his sword, prompting those in attendance to fear he would attack the king...and then promptly laid his sword at Jaehaerys's feet and swore to serve him. |
| 144 | * BigDamnHeroes: He and Gyles Morrigen saved the pregnant Queen Alysanne from a trio of septas who tried to assassinate her at Maidenpool. |
| 145 | * ChurchMilitant: As a leader of the Poor Fellows. |

| 147 | * HeelFaceTurn: Became a sworn protector of the crown following Maegor's deposal. |
| 148 | * ManlyTears: According to Archmaester Gyldayn, there were tears in Ser Joffrey's eyes when he accepted Jaehaerys's offer of a place in his Kingsguard. |
| 149 | * {{Outlaw}}: Became one after Maegor and High Septon Pater outlawed the Faith Militant |

| 160 | !!!Sour Sam |
| 161 | |
| 162 | A hedge knight who became a member of Jaehaerys I's Kingsguard during the so called War for the White Cloaks, despite his age and disabilities. He died of the Shivers along with his sworn brother Victor the Valiant at the age of 73. |
| 163 | ---- |
| 164 | * HandicappedBadass: He was gaunt, almost toothless and blind in one eye, but he was apparently far quicker than men half his age. |
| 165 | * TheNicknamer: He was the one who dubbed Prince Baelon "the Brave" after [[RefugeInAudacity seeing the boy whack Balerion on the snout with a stick]], commenting the boy was either mad or extremely brave. |
| 166 | * OldSoldier: He was sixty-three when he joined the Kingsguard and already a grizzled veteran of a hundred battles. For which side he fought, he would say, was "for me and the gods to know." |
| 167 | * ShutUpHannibal: When Rogar Baratheon demanded the Kingsguard to stand down, insisting that he was the King's Hand, Sam pointed out the Kingsguard took their orders from their king, not him. |
| 168 | -->'''Rogar Baratheon''': Sheath your steel and move aside. Have you forgotten? I am the King's Hand! |
| 169 | -->'''Sour Sam''': Aye, but we're the Kingsguard, not the Hand's guard, and it's the lad who sits the chair, not you. |
| 170 | * WorkingClassHero: He was one of the four common-born members chosen to be a part of the Kingsguard. |

| 172 | |
| 173 | [[folder:Ser Willam]] |
| 174 | !!Ser Willam the Wasp |
| 175 | |
| 176 | One of the five knights that joined the Kingsguard after the so called War for the White Cloaks. He was formerly a sworn sword of Lord Myles Smallwood and vouched for him to be Hand of the King. He was killed in Andalos by brigands who had been spreading the rumors of a dragon near Pentos. |
| 177 | ---- |
| 178 | * FinallyFoundTheBody: His head was found by an agent of Rego Draz, who finally confirmed his death. |
| 179 | * LastStand: Apparently he was the last of his party to fall. |
| 180 | * WorkingClassHero: He wasn't noble born, but served the crown faithfully nonetheless. |

| 183 | [[folder:Ser Victor]] |
| 184 | !!Ser Victor the Valiant |
| 185 | A former sworn sword of House Royce of Runestone, he was one of the five champions chosen during the so called War for the White Cloaks to fill the vacancies of Jaehaerys Kingsguard. He died of the Shivers in 59 AC. |
| 186 | ---- |
| 187 | * NiceGuy: Described as good-hearted. |
| 188 | * TheGenericGuy: Unlike the other five chosen champions, there's nothing that outstanding about Victor other than his valor. |

| 190 | |
| 191 | [[folder:Ser Pate]] |
| 192 | !!Ser Pate the Woodcock |
| 193 | |
| 194 | The youngest of the five champions chosen during the tournament to fill the vacancies of Jaehaerys' Kingsguard during the so called War for the White Cloaks. When people questioned if he was truly a knight, Ser Joffrey Doggett knighted the lad himself to quiet those doubts. |
| 195 | ---- |
| 196 | * TheBabyOfTheBunch: The youngest member of Jaehaerys I's Kingsguard. |
| 197 | * BadassBoast: When Rogar Baratheon tried to threaten the Kingsguard protecting Jaehaerys and Alysanne to stand down, pointing out that his men outnumbered them and would slay them all if it came to violence, Ser Pate just lowered his spear and promised he'd make sure Rogar would be among those to die if it did. |
| 198 | --->'''Rogar Baratheon''': You are seven. I have half a hundred swords behind me. A word from me and they will cut you to pieces. |
| 199 | --->'''Ser Pate''': They might kill us, but you will be the first to die, m'lord, you have my word upon that. |
| 200 | * NotAfraidToDie: He exemplified the UndyingLoyalty of the Kingsguard with his willingness to lay down his life for his king and queen if need be, as seen in the above quote. |
| 201 | * SelfProclaimedKnight: Possibly. In any case, Ser Joffrey Doggett knighted him personally, rendering the matter moot. |
| 202 | * WorkingClassHero: A smallfolk that reached the highest rank in chivalry. |
| 203 | * WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: A humorous example involving him; when Jaehaerys trained against his Kingsguard to improve his own skill at arms, they wagered on who could "kill" the king the most by the time he turned sixteen. According to Archmaester Gyldayn, Ser Pate won that bet simply because of how well he could use his spear. |

| 207 | !!Ser Ryam Redwyne, Lord Commander of the Kingsguard |
| 208 | |
| 209 | Ser Ryam Redwyne was a knight of House Redwyne. He was Lord Commander of the Kingsguard under Jaehaerys I Targaryen and Viserys I Targaryen. He also served briefly as Hand of the King for a year under King Jaehaerys I. |
| 210 | ---- |
| 211 | * AlliterativeName: '''R'''yam '''R'''edwyne. |
| 212 | * FamousAncestor: To House Redwyne. |
| 213 | * HistoricalHeroUpgrade: Since he was a Kingsguard in a time of relative peace, he never really fights or performs any great deeds- yet he's remembered as one of the greatest Kingsguard to ever serve. That said... |
| 214 | * HistoricalVillainDowngrade: His reign as Hand is considered by Pylos to be one of the worst, yet his actual tenure is at worst unremarkably mediocre, and the actual ''details'' of what he did are never given. |
| 215 | * NumberTwo: After the death of Septon Barth, Ryam briefly became Hand of the King for King Jaehaerys. However, he proved to be terrible at the job and was replaced in less than a year by Prince Baelon Targaryen. |
| 216 | * SiblingTeam: Alongside his brothers Robert and Rickard. |
| 217 | * UnfitForGreatness: Long after his death, he was considered one of the finest Kingsguard who ever lived, and among the worst Hands there ever were. The exact details of why he was such a bad Hand are unknown, but considering how poor some other hands were Ryam must have been pretty terrible to earn such a reputation. |

| 226 | |
| 227 | A knight of House Strong and Kingsguard to Jaehaerys I. |
| 228 | ---- |
| 229 | * CripplingCastration: When his peccadilloes finally came to light, he was stripped of his white cloak and gelded. |
| 230 | * LetUsNeverSpeakOfThisAgain: He was the Kingsguard on duty when the dying Princess Aerea returned on the back of Balerion. He would later claim that while carrying the princess to Grand Maester Benifer, she had a fever so hot he could feel the heat through his armour, and swore he felt something alive and moving inside the girl. Shortly afterwards, he was summoned to the King's presence and sworn to silence about it. |
| 231 | * NotHelpingYourCase: After having been caught, he was brought before the king to explain himself, and he might've probably gotten off with just getting sent to the Wall... if he hadn't pleaded for the sake of his wives and children. |
| 232 | * TheOathbreaker: Remember that Kingsguard swear to not father any children. |
| 233 | * MassivelyNumberedSiblings: He fathered '''sixteen''' children. There's an in-universe song about him that claims he had thirty. |
| 234 | * ReallyGetsAround: Took three wives, with each one being ignorant of the other two. |
| 235 | * ReassignedToAntarctica: Sent to the Night's Watch after being discovered, not before being gelded. |
| 236 | -->'''Jaehaerys I Targaryen''': ''[after sentencing Lucamore to the Wall]'' The Night's Watch will require vows from you as well. See that you keep them, or the next thing you lose shall be your head. |
| 237 | * ThisIsUnforgivable: Jaehaerys and Alysanne were quite fond of Lucamore, and were deeply hurt and angered by his betrayal of his vows. His Kingsguard brothers were also outraged by his antics, with Gyles Morrigan urging Lucamore's execution as punishment for dishonouring them all. |

| 245 | * AllThereInTheManual: He is only mentioned in ''A Feast for Crows'', but his full backstory can only be read in ''The World Of Ice And Fire''. |
| 246 | * WorthyOpponent: In the great tourney of King's Landing in 98 AC to celebrate the fiftieth year of King Jaehaerys I reign, Ser Clement and Ser Ryam Redwyne broke thirty lances against each other before King Jaehaerys proclaimed them co-champions, in what is often called the finest display of jousting in Westerosi history. |

| 259 | |
| 260 | A bastard from Dragonstone. He was raised to the Kingsguard after helping Aegon II take Dragonstone. He continued to serve in the Kingsguard of Aegon III. |
| 261 | ---- |
| 262 | * BodyguardingABadass: When he protected Aegon II. |
| 263 | * HeroicBastard: Aside from a brief moment during Aegon III's regency, Ser Marston acted very honorably and nobly. |
| 264 | * ItIsDehumanising: Referred to Sandoq the Shadow as "a beast" when chastising Aegon III for letting Sandoq kill Ser Amaury Peake. |
| 265 | * 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. |
| 266 | * 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''. |
| 267 | * 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. |
| 268 | -->'''Marston Waters''': I swear upon my sword in the sight of gods and men that none shall do you harm while I stand beside you. |
| 269 | -->'''Aegon III''': You stood beside me when [[FedToTheBeast the dragon ate my mother]]. [[ShutUpHannibal All you did was watch]]. I will not have you watch while they kill my brother's wife. |
| 270 | * NumberTwo: He became Hand of the King through unknown circumstances during Aegon III's regency, somehow having become embroiled in a conspiracy to frame Lady Larra Rogare, the wife of Prince Viserys, and her family for various crimes. This resulted in him besieging King Aegon III, Viserys, and Larra in Maegor's Holdfast for eighteen days before he came to his senses and turned on his conspirators. |
| 271 | * OnceDoneNeverForgotten: Aegon III hated and never forgave Waters for his part in the downfall and death of Aegon's mother. |
| 272 | * PassedOverPromotion: Subverted: Aegon III tried to name Robin Massey to Lord Commander of the Kingsguard instead of Waters, but Unwin Peake put a stop to that. |
| 273 | * PutOnABus: He was one of several men Aegon II sent to Essos to try and hire mercenaries to augment his army. The mission ended in failure and by the time Marston got back, Aegon was dead. |
| 274 | * RashomonStyle: Was he really an UnwittingPawn of the conspirators against Aegon III who had a crisis of conscience and tried to make amends? Or, as some have suggested, was he a willing conspirator who turned on his partners when it became apparent their plan was falling apart in a desperate effort to save his own skin? |
| 275 | * RedemptionEqualsDeath: He was killed in the process of arresting his sworn brother, Ser Mervyn Flowers, one of the conspirators against the Rogare family. |
| 276 | * SoleSurvivor: Of the Greens who took Dragonstone, he was the only one not killed in the purge of Aegon's power base during his assassination as he was not in King's Landing at the time. |
| 277 | * UndyingLoyalty: Despite being from Dragonstone and having kin on the island, he stayed in King's Landing and loyal to Aegon II, later helping to smuggle him to the island and arrange to take it over. |
| 278 | * UnwittingPawn: He was most likely only used by Unwin Peake and his cronies to gain power over Aegon III, and by the time he realized it and tried to redeem himself, he ended up dying. |
| 279 | * WhatTheHellHero: Tries this against Aegon III after the King barricaded himself in Maegor's Holdfast, arguing that as a knight sworn to defend him, Amaury Peake hadn't deserved to die so brutally at Sandoq's hands. Aegon just retorted that [[IWarnedYou his brother Viserys had warned Peake and his men what would happen if they tried to force their way in]]. |
| 280 | -->'''Marston Waters''': Ser Amaury was sworn to protect you, to give his own life for yours if need be. He was your leal man, as I am. He did not deserve such a death at the hands of such a beast. |
| 281 | -->'''Aegon III''': Sandoq is no beast. He cannot speak, but he hears and he obeys. I commanded Ser Amaury to be gone and he refused. My brother warned him what would happen if he stepped beyond the axe. [[ShutUpHannibal The vows of the Kingsguard include obedience, I thought]]. |
| 282 | * WouldntHurtAChild: When Aegon II defeated his thirteen year old cousin Baela in a dragon duel, Ser Marston stopped Ser Alfred Broome from executing her, wrenching Alfred's blade out of his hand. |

| 291 | * MaybeMagicMaybeMundane: He could have been killed using magic, or a completely mundane method. |
| 292 | * RashomonStyle: How he died. Some say Alys used some sorcery to kill him there and then, or that she signaled one of her crossbowmen to shoot him. Mushroom claims he was hit in the chest with a lead ball from a slingshot. |
| 293 | * ScrewYourUltimatum: When Alys Rivers demanded he bend the knee and swear his sword to her son by Aemond, Regis told her where to shove it. |
| 294 | -->'''Regis Groves''': I do not kneel to bastards, much less the baseborn whelp of a kinslayer and a milkcow. |

| 303 | * BastardBastard: He completely forswore his oaths and plotted to put his brother in power by framing the Rogare family and Lord Thaddeus Rowan for various crimes. He even slew his own sworn brother Ser Marston Waters when he attempted to arrest Mervyn for his crimes. |
| 304 | * CharacterDeath: After killing Marston Waters, he was beaten to death at the stables of the Red Keep while trying to flee. |

| 306 | * EvenEvilHasStandards: He WouldntHurtAChild. |
| 307 | * LaserGuidedKarma: He killed two stableboys while trying to saddle a horse to flee the Red Keep. The commotion brought the boys' friends running who mobbed and beat Mervyn to death. |
| 308 | * TheOathbreaker: It is unlikely he ever took his Kingsguard oaths seriously, and was likely appointed to the position during his brother Unwin's reign as Hand of the King. Mushroom accuses him of [[ReallyGetsAround sleeping with multiple women]] within White Sword Tower |
| 309 | * PetTheDog: Hears out Thaddeus Rowan's pleading for clemency for his squire...but [[KickTheDog still cuts his ear off.]] |
| 310 | * WouldntHurtAChild: Some suspected him of being responsible for the death of Queen Jaehaera Targaryen, who either jumped or was thrown from Maegor's Holdfast when she was only ten. However, many people, including the semi-reliable court fool Mushroom, held that even Ser Mervyn would not be able to push the child he was supposed to protect to her death. Instead, they think he allowed Tessario the Tiger, Unwin's sellsword assassin, access to the queen in order to do the deed. |

| 320 | * TheOathbreaker: Ignored the King's orders over those of his uncle. |
| 321 | * {{Nepotism}}: Even in a society that actively encourages such behavior, his appointment to the Kingsguard was clearly for no other reason than his uncle was Hand. |
| 322 | * PetTheDog: He orders his men to not harm Aegon and Viserys when attempting to capture them; granted, he needs them alive for political reasons, but that doesn't preclude a beating. |

| 358 | --> --'''Ser Arys Oakheart''' |
| 359 | |
| 360 | The brother of King Aegon IV and Queen Naerys. Considered the finest knight who ever lived, he was Lord Commander of the Kingsguard, serving under four kings. He was one of the few people his sister Naerys was close to (along with his nephew Daeron II). Whispers of his alleged affair with his sister helped spark the Blackfyre Rebellion. He died protecting his brother Aegon IV from would-be assassins sent by House Toyne, seeking revenge for their brother's execution. |
| 361 | |
| 362 | See the [[Characters/ASongOfIceAndFireHouseTargaryenAncestors House Targaryen Ancestors]] page. |
| 363 | ---- |
| 364 | * 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. |
| 365 | * BadassInDistress: He was saved from a pit of vipers by King Baelor. |
| 366 | * 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. |
| 367 | * BlackKnight: One of the stories involves Aemon as a mystery knight at TheTourney. |
| 368 | -->''Mystery knights would oft appear at tourneys, with helms concealing their faces, and shields that were either blank or bore some strange device. Sometimes they were famous champions in disguise. The Dragonknight once won a tourney as the Knight of Tears, so he could name his sister the queen of love and beauty in place of the king's mistress.'' |
| 369 | * BrotherSisterIncest: If the rumours about him and Naerys were true. |
| 370 | * CoolHelmet: He was called the Dragonknight because his helmet was decorated with a three-headed dragon wrought in white gold. |
| 371 | * 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". |
| 372 | * CourtlyLove: Aemon and Queen Naerys reportedly had such a relationship -- or at least, Sansa's favorite songs portray them as such, "valiant Prince Aemon and his doomed love for his brother's queen." There's no question they were close. Aemon joined the Kingsguard to serve and protect ''her'', not the king. He once won a tourney as a mystery knight to crown her queen of love and beauty. They probably never took it further, though, because Naerys was married to someone else (and quite devout), and Aemon was in the Kingsguard (and very devoted to knightly honor). Deconstructed when it was alleged their relationship ''had'' gone further and Aemon had fathered Naerys's son Daeron. A courtly love relationship ''does'' pose the question DidTheyOrDidntThey, leaving them open to MaliciousSlander -- even if they ''were'', in fact, completely chaste. |
| 373 | * 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. |
| 374 | * {{Foil}}: |
| 375 | ** Aemon and Terrence served on the Kingsguard together, and both were involved in allegations of getting with Aegon's women. Aemon and Naerys probably had a chaste, CourtlyLove relationship, and the allegations against them were probably MaliciousSlander. Terrence and Bethany had sex and were [[BedroomAdulteryScene caught in flagrante]]. |
| 376 | ** Aemon's 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. |
| 377 | * 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. |
| 378 | * KnightInShiningArmor: {{Exaggerated|Trope}} -- Aemon is beloved by the people as an honorable and chivalrous knight. Arys Oakheart calls him "the noblest knight who ever lived." He is invoked repeatedly in the present as a representative of bygone chivalry. However -- like most of Martin's knights -- Aemon is also a {{deconstruction}}. Aemon adhered ''judiciously'' to his vows, backing his king no matter what... but his king, Aegon the Unworthy, was a monster. |
| 379 | * LongDeadBadass: He was one of greatest members of the Kingsguard ever. |
| 380 | * MaliciousSlander: Morgil Hastwyck accused Aemon of being the true father of Naerys's son Daeron. However, it's widely agreed this probably wasn't true. Given the political context surrounding the events, it looks like Morgil was put up to it by Aegon, who wanted a reason to disinherit Daeron. |
| 381 | -->'''Arys:''' I will not believe that. The tale of Prince Aemon's treason with Queen Naerys was only that, a tale, a lie his brother told when he wished to set his trueborn son aside in favor of his bastard. Aegon was not called the Unworthy without cause. |
| 382 | * ManlyTears: Sansa argues so. |
| 383 | -->'''Tommen:''' ''[sobs]''\ |
| 384 | '''Joffrey:''' You mew like a suckling babe. Princes aren't supposed to cry.\ |
| 385 | '''Sansa:''' Prince Aemon the Dragonknight cried the day Princess Naerys wed his brother Aegon. |
| 386 | * MyMasterRightOrWrong: Aemon is remembered as a "perfect knight," meaning completely loyal to his liege. His king was 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. Aemon nonetheless exhibited complete loyalty. Aegon IV repaid Aemon by accusing him of fathering Daeron II. Despite all this, Aemon still committed a HeroicSacrifice to save Aegon IV from the vengeful Toynes (who again, Aegon IV provoked by brutally killing Ser Terrence Toyne). |
| 387 | * NoodleIncident: It's not yet explained why Aemon dueled with Lord Cregan Stark. Or who won. |
| 388 | * TakingTheBullet: Aemon 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. |
| 389 | * WarriorPrince: As a younger son who wouldn't inherit, he became Lord Commander of the Kingsguard. |
| 390 | * WorthyOpponent: Aemon reportedly considered Cregan Stark such. |
| 391 | -->'''Bran:''' Oh, there, he's Cregan Stark. He fought with Prince Aemon once, and the Dragonknight said he'd never faced a finer swordsman. |

Aemon and Naerys probably had a chaste, CourtlyLove relationship, and the allegations against them were probably MaliciousSlander. Terrence and Bethany had sex and were [[BedroomAdulteryScene caught in flagrante]]. |
| 402 | * LoveMakesYouDumb: A member of the Kingsguard breaking his celibacy vows for love is already TemptingFate, but doing so with the king's mistress takes it to a new level, never mind with a king like Aegon the Unworthy. It could never have ended well. |
| 403 | * NoHistoricalFiguresWereHarmed: Of Thomas Culpepper, a knight in the service of King Henry VIII (of whom Aegon the Unworthy is considered an expy) who embarked on an affair with the king's fifth wife, Catherine Howard, which ended in their executions when it was discovered. |
| 404 | * TheOathbreaker: Infamously broke his vow of celibacy for love. |
| 405 | * StarCrossedLovers: With Bethany Bracken. This ended badly. |
| 406 | -->'''Arys Oakheart:''' Ser Terrence Toyne was found abed with his king's mistress. 'Twas love, he swore, but it cost his life and hers, and brought about the downfall of his House. |
| 407 | * TallDarkAndHandsome: He was noted in-universe for this. |
| 408 | -->''...the dark and dashing Terrence Toyne of whom the singers sang, had been so fair of face that even the king's mistress could not resist him...'' |
| 409 | * UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: His affair and subsequent execution was the beginning of the end for House Toyne. His brothers tried to avenge his cruel death by attempting to assassinate Aegon IV, only to be slain by the Dragonknight, Prince Aemon, in the attempt (resulting in the Dragonknight's death as well). The Toynes never really recovered from this. Even if he'd considered the personal implications of being caught, it's unlikely Ser Terrence would have foreseen having such a negative effect on House Toyne's future. |
| 410 | -->'''Jaime:''' After Aegon the Unworthy put Ser Terrence Toyne to death for sleeping with his mistress, Toyne's brothers did their best to kill him. Their best was not quite good enough, thanks to the Dragonknight, but it was not for want of trying. |

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. |

| 439 | * TheWorfEffect: He's apparently badass enough to be placed on the Kingsguard ahead of Quentyn Ball, but he's knocked out fighting in the trial of seven. On the other hand, he was one of the knights fighting Baelor Breakspear (the hammer to Maekar's anvil and rumored to be the greatest knight of the age) and wasn't allowed to hit him back.
