▶ Character Name & Series. Theon Greyjoy | A Song of Ice and Fire/GoT ▶ Character Age. ~21 ▶ Photo Reference. if you want to get real technical, he looks something like this right now but like combine it with this ▶ Permissions.Link ▶ Personality Blurb.
A trainwreck personified! He was dealt a shitty hand in life but continuously makes shitty decisions to make things even harder for himself. He's been a lot of things: the heir to the Iron Islands, a ward (or political prisoner, depends on how nice you want to be with your wording) to House Stark, self-titled Prince of Winterfell, a turncloak, an actual prisoner tortured beyond recognition, and a creature called Reek (it rhymes with weak).
He’s a troubled and stubborn young man, easily wounded and constantly at odds with his own identity. He doesn’t know who he is as a person when you strip away all his acts. He’s full of self-loathing and doubt, and guilt over the things he's done weigh heavily on him. He's easily offended and easily angered, but he's fairly withdrawn now. He bites back a lot of the things he used to say and no longer allows himself to lash out, because he's learned that that sort of behavior is what earns you a punishment. Sometimes the old Theon will show through with a dry remark or a jape, though. He's still pretty freshly canon updated to the end of A Dance with Dragons so he isn't in the best place right now. He knows his name and he wants to keep it, but he's on shaky ground. One moment, he'll be certain that he would rather die than be made into Reek again, and another moment he thinks he might not be so bad, because Reek isn't nearly as guilty as Theon Greyjoy is. He doesn't trust easily, he doesn't like being touched out of fear that pain might come along with it. He is a mess, but he’s doing better.
▶ Desired CR. HE NEEDS ANY CR BECAUSE A LOT OF HIS CR LEFT. This guy does not make friends easily, so anyone who’s willing to put up with his bullshit would be a great start. ▶ Offered CR. Uhh…well, if you ever needed to talk to someone who’s been through some shit, he’s your man. He knows his weaponry, especially archery, even if he’s still working up the strength to get back into it. He’s not especially friendly, but…he’ll do. HE ALSO HAS THREE DOGS. DOGS ARE GOOD, RIGHT? ▶ Rooming Plans. He now lives in Olympia with Claire Fraser and her army family (as if he’d want you to live with him anyway Robb!!!) ▶ Game Plans. Excuse him while he spends three months begging for Robb’s forgiveness, thanks. He’s also eventually going to get some of his medical stuff taken care of so you won’t have to look at his ugly broken teeth anymore. With Maximus Boltagon gone, the plant shop in Olympia is kind of left in his care? So he’ll probably…be asking around for people to help him with that. He doesn’t know how to care for plants. ▶ Event Plans. Theon has a looooot of ghosts. A good chunk of Theon’s story arc revolves around his grief because he’s haunted by these metaphorical ghosts so uh HELLO THANK YOU THIS IS A GOOD PLOT. His own guilt will definitely drive him to deal with other people’s ghosts.
