This thread is for a neutral, non-spoilery reference sheet of the millions of Game of Thrones characters. If you have something you think should be added, please contact Maximum Taco. Or you can post in this thread, but keep in mind that you shouldn't post things that haven't happened on the show. Also, I'll periodically delete posts in this thread to keep it clean. Don't take it personally!

Ok as mentioned in the pinned post up there, this is a spoiler free thread. It includes only information that can be acquired from watching the show from HBO static to closing credits. What that means is this thread should contain no book knowledge (aside from proper spelling of names/places), no trailer/promo knowledge, no HBO site knowledge, no DVD/Blu-Ray Bonus Feature knowledge.

If you have a suggestion, correction or addition that you think should be made (again using only show knowledge) contact me via PM (and if possible include the episode/scene that proves your claim.) To save space and avoid unintentional spoilers PLEASE Do not post suggestions corrections and additions here (not even under spoiler bars), if you can't use PMs just hold your tongue. This thread is intended as an info dump, not as a place for discussion.

Expect the list to be updated the Monday or Tuesday following an episode.

Character List is currently up to date for: Season 3, Episode 5: Kissed By Fire
Note: Familial patriarchs/matriarchs (King/Queen/Lord/Lady) are always listed first
Note: Blank spaces like this _____ denote a name that has not yet been revealed on the show.
Note: Brackets like this {} denote characters known to be deceased.
Note: The arrow -> denotes characters with a direct affiliation to the "non-arrowed" character directly above but NOT to the House that character belongs to.

Is the character guide on HBO's website really verboten? It's all characters who've already appeared on our TVs. Her name is there. Might be worth clearing that up.


For these purposes, yes, that character guide is verboten. This reference sheet uses the most restrictive rules possible to ensure that it doesn't spoil anything.

I've cleaned up the other posts in this thread.
