- The Three Eyed Raven's real name is Brynden Rivers, and he’s the Bastard son of a Targaryen King, Aegon the 4th, one of the worst kings to ever rule. He was such a bad king he was nicknamed Aegon the Unworthy. Brynden also went by the name Bloodraven.

um, which beautiful woman is that?

Brandon Stark
-Avid climber
-Cripple
I'd say that they didn't really read his resumé before they hired him.
It made sense him being a greenseer his mother is a blackwood and they descend of the first men so he is like jon snow half valyrian and half first men
Same with Daenerys. Her great grandmother was Betha Blackwood and since Dany's parents were brother-sister & her grandparents were brother-sister it is the same as though Betha were her mother since no new blood was introduced.
@@hybridbutterfly3908 not really,dany is much more valyrian,He like jon
It's fun to think that Bran had been hanging out what with Jon's greatx7 uncle. Pretty sure he's been keeping an eye on Jon too.
Have a feeling the Nights King is a Stark. Wont that just blow your mind!
Also Jon hung around with his Great Uncle, Aemon at the wall.
A Girl Has No Name deffo a Stark
A Girl Has No Name great great uncle actually, since Aemon is Jon's great grandfather Aegon's brother. Though in a World of ice and fire, Aegon has a son Jaehaerys who is the Mad Kings father, making Aemon Jon's great great great uncle
Bran is also family to him, Starks have married Blackwoods, Brynden his mother was a Blackwood
No, u fokin wish, not all ancestors give a shit about their descendants.
The most interesting character in Westeros.
Son of a Targaryen king (Legitimized Bastard)
Maester of Whisperers ( small council )
Hand of the King
Expert Archer and Commander
Spoke several tongues
Practiced dark arts and sorcery
Fought in Blackfyre rebellions
Exiled to Night's watch
Became Lord Commander of Nights watch
Greenseer (due to his mother's first men blood)
Three eyed crow who can see everything
What a CV !
It should be noted Bloodraven is actually called the Three-Eyed Crow in the books. I don't know why they changed it.
As for his age, something Aemon said makes me wonder, "Fire consumes, but cold preserves", hinting he lived so long because he lived in the far north for some reason. I wonder if it was the same for Bloodraven.
No it was the tree that extended his life, also why he couldn't leave it
Mostly the tree, but the cold may have helped if Aemon's theory about his own lifespan was right.
There actually is no direct evidence blood raven is the three eyed crow in the books, in fact blood raven is confused when bran calls him the three eyed crow
@@buddyfats4768 only because on the magical realm, you don’t get to choose how you appear. Bloodraven is the best character George made lmao.
@@Devoted2Mariah that could be why its also possible he just isn't the three eyed crow.
Am I the only one who thought of Yu-Gi-Oh when he said "red eyed white dragon "
shutdown199
It's all about the blue eyes
Yes I tough about blue eyes white dragon too
Now we have a blue eyes wight dragon
*I'm a blue eyes white dragon while you're just dark magician*
Gay
The sword dark sister could still be around tho and it would be awesome to either see meera or arya wielding it, meera took a sword from bloodraven's cave after all!
No offence, but even if Arya gets the sword anytime *soon*, the sword would be like a head taller than her, so.. yea.
Ralicx Gaming and she wouldnt abandon her one hand sword play which she can pull of with the needle
Good luck finding it..
Sudhish it’s Valyrian steel, no matter how big the sword is she can still wield it. It’s just how she’ll find it.
Meera will get that sword for sure. Which I’m excited about.
Also, he had a relationship with sheira seastar. A bastard daughter of aegon the unworthy and a rumoured sorceress.
the most beautiful woman who ever lived
Didn't really feel like discussing Shiera Seastar. She's even more of a mystery.
Do Bolton, Mudd, Dayne, Blackwood, Umber, Blackfyre, Hoare, Gardener & Whitehill.
House Dayne and Blackfyre are really good picks

Yey, after watching three-eye raven death made me sad.
I have a theory anout peter baelish . Is it poasible since he had his duel with brandon and nearly died that bloodraven has been manipulating him in his dreams . Baelish always seems one step ahead and for some reason av got a feeling hes taking orders from someone. Bran and jojen didnt get dreams about bloodraven until they had near death experience. I think bloodravem has been pulling the strings and sending baelish dreams to set all the events in motion maybe showing baelish he will be long if he follows bloodravens instructions but really is just a pawn in the bigger game between the three eyed raven and the others
Turan Ahmet j
wow that video went by quickly. entertaining as fuck. keep it up
Thanks!
So...
The rumors were he could turn into animals and that animals spoke to him but there's no proof that he had the sight before he left the wall?
Sounds to me that he was using the sight to warf into animals to spy. Which would explain why he could be anywhere and know anything.
What if he left the wall and got injured but they found him, recognized his gifts, planted him into the tree to keep him alive?
Just my thoughts.
We can be sure that the show Three-Eyed Raven, who was said to be a thousand years old, doesn't have the book backstory and is not Bloodraven. I guess he's just some incredibly old guy whose backstory is unimportant on the show (especially since they got rid of (f)Aegon and the Blackfyre backstory).
That would be a change I would be extremely sad about tbh. I love Bloodraven Q_Q
If you recall the scene again, he asked "you think i wanted to sit here for a thousand years watching the world from a distance as the roots grew through me?"
He didn't say he did. Bran assumed. I think it was a rhetorical question and he is Brynden
In the context of the show, how would they do the back story? Its sub plot that doesn't bring much to the much condensed narrative of the TV show, in major story arc its bran becoming three eyed raven that's significant, not the predecessors back story
Back stories like that are the fodder of spoon offs or movies, which will happen, to rich a tapestry of back story and folklore , the money men will flog it to death until its ruined
FrakkinToaster Luvva My guess is they changed a few things to keep them mysteries for book readers. And it'll be completely different... if Martin ever gets around to finishing.
maybe the three-eyed-raven takes on the experiences and feelings of the past three eyed ravens and as such refers to them all as one being, like the avatar
Another great video. I think the brilliance of GRRM’s writing is that he can take characters like Jojen and the Three-eyed Raven, and make you doubt their motives, even though they are individuals who probably sacrificed the most in an effort to win the Great War. For example, as Brynden Rivers, Three-eyed Raven has a history of using his martial, magical and intellectual talents to support the Targaryen line, and doing what is best for the Realm. Rivers also had Targaryen and First men blood (a Blackwood). I think his motives and Jojen’s motives are to show Bran, Sam and important the people who matter that Jon has an important role to play for humans to win the Great War. They know that role and they know how the story ends, but they do not want to disturb history by telling the players how their story ends.
Bittersweet ending: all of this is in brans head when he fell..
grrm would not disrespect his readers like that
But that's already been proven it hasn't seeing as after he fell the first scene is where they executed a deserter from the wall who claimed to see white walkers
it's so cool learning all of the lore
He's the three eyed crow in the books. When bran asks him if he's the three eyed crow he said he was once a crow, meaning a man of the nights watch.
your videos are so awesome, keep doing what you doing !
Thanks Emre
He’s (well Bran) now the King of the 6 Kingdoms
im a simple person. i see jeffree star, i click
hahaha me too
🤣
Cool vid Brozack. I have had a hard time understanding the whole 3 Eyed Raven thing. I am watching the show for a 3rd time and it's starting to come together for me. I wish I had heard of the books when I could still read. Bad eyes much like Aemon. Vids like yours have taught me so much. Thanks.
Great character intro and visuals. Time well spent.... subscribing !
I just now found this and I love it! It is the most informative video I have found about the 3ER anywhere.
Nice vid bro: good style, good information and well told. I'd like a history of house Clegane if there's anything to talk about there
Really disappointing that the three eyed raven in the show did not look like bloodraven. Would have been cool.
yeah indeed
He did look good though, dark, myterious and even threatening...and then they changed him into a friendly old man.
I really enjoy your videos. Good job man. I think a good idea for a video would be the Reed Family Tree!
Great video, keep'em coming!
Thanks Susana
VERY INTERESTING! wish you can make more 💕
great video man
awesome stuff
I liked this brother. you could be a little more fluent with your speech but I did enjoy the profile. I like looking deeper into the background of what made got what it is today. thanks man keep up the good work.
good job on your first profile. and this was a topic I was curious about, having read all the books, and watched all the shows, I still didn't know much about this.
This man really said, “I regret nothing”
bloodraven definitely my favorite character , if they did a blackfyre spin off or better yet g wrote a book detailing the rebellions that'd be awesome. dance of dragons would be good too..
I need to read the book.
Spoiler
Yes , the Golden Company did go to Kings Landing only to die without a fight (all turned to ashes)
Nah. Screw the show. They rally being Rhaegar's alleged not really dead son Aegon and retake Griffin's Roost, then start conquering other castles. Still don't know how it will turn out.
Euron seems to imply he was visited by bloodraven, as well
I love Brynden Rivers... Legendary warrior.
Yup! He IS one of my favorite characters. I hope we will see more of him in the new show.
Sick video, bro.
Love your video
very good. you don t fear to use a lot of pictures and maps. that very helpful to understand. especially for your videos of family lineage tree. keep going good job! (y)
Thanks!
OH SO THAT'S WHY THE GOLDEN COMPANY'S WORDS ARE "Beneath the gold, the bitter steel" AFTER THEIR FOUNDER BITTERSTEEL!!
Damn, you went balls deep. All I could see was the nuts hangin out.
You earned a like and a subscribe.
Awesome vid
Good video.
Excellent!!!
i've watched all your videos can you make more please lmao
Of course :)
Loved this. Also, you sound like psychicpebbles
My secret's out..
HE wrote all this?
great video. thanks a lot. how come he had both eyes again later?
God-Emperor Bloodraven
Ah, Dune reference?
Maybe Brynden Rivers kept communicating with Aemon Targaryen. But it's likely not. Imagine the quantity of useful information maester Aemon would have learnt out of it.
If Brynden had kept contact with Maester Aemon as the Three-eyed Crow, Aemon would've had written a book of all the information Aemon received from Brynden and give to Sam or Jon!
Your videos give me comfort now that the tv series has gone to shit
It could be blood raven responsible for the Targaryens fleeing Valyria before the doom. He probably warned daynes the dreamer through a dream.
That was really interesting, I loved it. Please, do more. :)
I like your videos- subbed.
Thank you Professor!
It's my pleasure. There are a number of well-made video series made by talented and dedicated people and as a viewer, giving a thumbs up and a comment is a way of saying thank you. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work!
Subbed from Scotland aka the North 😎
:D
mityboosh *beyond the wall aka you're a wildling
Hopefully someone will build a wall for you wildlings
The north refers to scandinavia i think.. and beyond the wall is the arctic.
You're a Thenn! I f&*^ng hate Thenns!
great video
Thanks Carlos
Good video! Tthe Blackfire history, crystal clear!
Thanks Adela
Nice profiling. Would definitely be interested in some more profiles of lesser known characters of equal importance like golden company, stone men, griffin, etc
and now he is the King
The first background music sounds so familiar but i can't remember where its from. Anyone?
Night's Watch is a painting by Rembrandt. For your information
there's gotta be a link between ghost and bloodraven.
That was a cool narrative...
Bloodraven is the creator of the New, Faceless, and Lord of Light Gods... 0.0
It makes sense with the description 4:57
I want to see Arya get Dark Sister and use it against Cersei!
Good Video
good vid
Wait. This sounds more and more like Odin
Question is how the Children of the Forest procreate. Maybe they are the souls of the dead who use the weirwoods as a cocoon over centuries and eventually become new children of the forest.
Dragonglas being touched by Dragonfire may be a "Breath of Life" used to create white Walkers. They detached them from the endless cycle of life and death.
Death is the first enemy and the last. --> Reincarnation à la GoT.
That would be the Song of ice (death) and fire(life)
They reproduce like humans do, but probably less often to avoid overpopulation, since they live so long. They are compatible with humans though, cause they interbred with the first men. The greenseer and skinchanger genes come from them originally. Sadly, their population dwindled so low after they were driven north and the survivors are so old, they are going extinct.
he also speaks to jon snow when hes beyond the wall
Lol he was an albino
As a child I used to have dreams about old people who lived in a cave and grew with the roots of trees, much like this character. I would go in and feed them with branches. The difference though is that the cave I went to in my dream had sunlight coming in and the feeling in there was bliss and I was convinced the old people in the roots were perfectly good.
It struck me like crazy when I saw this character in Game of Thrones. Does anyone have theories of the symbolics of old people growing in tree roots? I thought it was just my dream but now I think it's something more archetypal.
Btw, I was something like a stone age person in the dreams. I lived with my family in the forest and when I got a glimpse of modernity it scared me.
Check your family tree and ethnic ancestry. I think you will find some answers there.
please tell us everything you know about game of thrones keep doing this you do this very good
love From Pakistan
Thank you!
lol he's in the mystery Knight and he saves Aragon V from Daemon blackfyre third son
My favorite character.
is a story like that also a part of the books?
Shout out to Dunk and Egg.
Are you trying to talk like Christopher Walken? You keep making pauses between sentences and it keeps reminding me of Christopher Walken
I have a theory anout peter baelish . Is it poasible since he had his duel with brandon and nearly died that bloodraven has been manipulating him in his dreams . Baelish always seems one step ahead and for some reason av got a feeling hes taking orders from someone. Bran and jojen didnt get dreams about bloodraven until they had near death experience.

aemon call brynden(3 eyes raven) uncle lolx thats how old he is.
FYI, aemon was 102 when he dies
J Snow p
Awesome character
If you had somebody without a speech impediment narrating these I feel they'd be a lot more popular
Could you do a series of the taragryen history?
Made a video a few months ago called "Targaryen Family Tree" and I briefly discuss all the cool characters
cool , thx!
He is only a three eyed raven in the tv show. in the books it is a three eyed crow. there is probably a difference knowing Martin
more character profiles plz
Where are you getting all this history?
Seemed you know more then the books
I so want to see Paul Bettany play Bloodraven
I believe he gets his green dreams from his blackwood side as they descend from first men and has links to house stark
TOP DOG king I think the existing three eyed Raven (whoever was in the tree before Bloodraven) was guiding him like he did Bran, knowing he had powers already or maybe the three eyed Raven chooses someone to give those powers to like Bloodraven did with Bran. Bran didn't seem to have any powers before he fell.
Bran and Rickon both had the power of greensight. In season 1, both of them dreamt about their Father's death before it actually happened.
Only those with the blood of the first men are born skinchangers or greenseers. The trait comes from the children of the forest, who interbred with them before the Andals came.
How come his eyes arnt red in tv show?
So Bloodraven have being perpetrating forbidden magic against Bran all along.
Among the free folk have said that entering the mind of a human is the worst thing a warg can do.
Bloodraven was manipulating Brann all the time by entering his mind through dreams since the day he fell off the tower.
Bran, Catelyn, Patchface, Beric Dondarrion and few others are "touched" by the gods.
They "died" and come back to "life" but they became somewhat... twisted. They were not the same.
Maybe Bran´s twisted psyche didn´t caught much attention because he was alive and he was still just a boy.
But the damage was there, his increasing sadness would morph into a severe depression.
Bloodraven entered into Bran´s mind as much he did into his wolf.
And Brann entered into Hodor´s mind with the consequences that we all ready know.
So Bran´s damage was cause not by the fall, but by Bloodraven skinchanging magic.
Bloodraven is affecting and tormenting people minds without knowing it. Or does he consciously doing it?
When Bran meets Bloodraven for the first time, he saw a corpse.
Meera, who already protects and believe his brother´s mission, is definitely uncomfortable all the time they are with Bloodraven. she felt something was fishy...
Maybe Jojen also was manipulated too.
In the books, Jojen was sacrificed as a part of a dark ritual (blood magic).
One day, Bran didn´t know where Jojen or Meera were.
Some days later, Bran drank Jojen´s blood (without know it) that the "children of the forest" gave him.
And here is the thing... Crows are all liars.
The tree-eyed raven always promised Bran that he will eventually fly, but for me this is a trap.
Maybe he who claims to be Bloodraven isn´t the real Bloodraven. The real Bloodraven died all those years ago.
Maybe the thing that Jojen and Bran watch and listen its just a completely different entity, a more darker, and hungry deity.
Maybe the real Bloodraven was seduced by this entity and possess him since then.
For me, whoever Bloodraven is, its lurking and feeding himself with the blood of powerful greenseer or skinchanger individuals.
After all, when the four of them are inside the cave, they notice hundreds of bones on the floor...
And when Bloodreaven talks, is only the dark entity that use the memories and powers of the real Bloodreaven. The weirwood tree is a parasite and a host of the corpse of Bloodreaven. The weirwood is using a magical body to make itself "present" in the world of men.
The weirwood tree is memory preserved. But for nature be able to "talk" it would need to possess a corpse who can be able to warg into animals and men. This entity is feeding itself of powerful greenseers all along, so it can comunicate with humans on their own tongue.
Through Bran´s blood runs the blood of the first men, magical greensight, skinchanger powers and he has royal blood in his veins, so he is a valuable asset for Bloodraven. For me, this dark entity (not bloodraven) wants to taste Bran´s blood.
This entity that possess Bloodraven´s corpse bait Jojen, telling him to fulfill an important quest by freeing the chained wolf.
And with Bran is happening the same thing. "Bloodraven" is showing Bran all this dreams and illusions of the past (memories of the weirwood tree and other greenseers have witness) to keep him engaged and making feel that he is also some kind of a piece of puzzle that will complete a higher destiny (helping Jon to be azor ahai).
But in reality the entity is feeding Bran like a pig that eventually will be sacrificed too.
Maybe, this entity is really the great other that Melisandre saw in her flames as the enemy, but she could only see the body in which this entity is using at the moment (Bloodraven). When the time comes, she will see Bran's face.
Maybe this dark deity can summon or call wights at will.
Maybe that´s why Bloodreaven corpse is reanimated and can talk and move and so on, but that makes him no different from a wight. A parasite that reanimates corpses is common in fungi and insect world. The insects body move but they are not alive at all.
And in this world, people have been resurrected by powers of the gods: patchface by the drowned god, beric dondarrion by the lord of light, wights by the great other... But they are not the same, they are less of a human, they are not alive, they are being controlled without knowing it.
Maybe all of this gods are the same god, the god with many names or many faces... 😏
Fungi and trees comunicate through its branches with other trees and fungis, so a forest acts like a hive mind.
Maybe in the books we will get something similar to what we saw on television.
While Bran is diving (not flying) in this ocean of illusions of prophecies, ancient memories of many dead greenseers, dead wargs and basically being brainwash, Meera will found out the truth by her own... and after she finds out that all of this was "Bloodravens" trap since the beginning, this dark god will summon again wights thath were buried around to reach the cave and capture Bran.
Bran will hear the voice of Meera: enter Hodor. And then, after they escaped, we will see how Bloodreaven corpse will turn "off" and become inanimated.
After they are safe, Meera will tell Bran what she discovered when he was "diving" in memories. That she saw the body of his brother, murdered by the children of the forest.
And Bran also would tell Meera what he saw before he heard her voice.
Bran would tell her that they must go North. Keep going North. Reaching the land of ever winter.
His purpose will be to confront and defeat this dark entity that after this will hunt him over and over again?
What did Bran saw?
Maybe Meera and Bran are George R.R. Martin´s Frodo an Sam´s journey to Mordor.
Meera will die eventually and this will be the end of humanity within Bran. Maybe when Bran is finally alone, he will be seduced by the great other plan:
Ultimately, Bran is going to be chained to this fate, he will summon and control all the wights at will to destroy or "purify" Westeros. Because he and the great other have seen what humanity is costing to world. Bran will accept the call and warg into many corpses, he will become a god like figure himself, with a hive mind that will feed from the blood of the many that will fall in this purge, and this mental state, Bran will not know when to stop.
He will enter in a "sleep" mode, purifying westeros perpetually, unable to wake up.
He is going to become and ice "mad" king sitting in his throne in the lands of always winter, where the "hero", maybe Jon Snow (i don´t know) will have to stab him and, check mate him and ending the long night.
After all, Melissandre will resurrect Jon, Jon will be touched by the gods as well, and will remember his visions while he was dead or when he is alive again, he will have dreams of the future to come, the dead will rise and winter will come.
Jon snow and Melissandre will have to defeat this great other whithout knowing it's Bran.
Maybe we get somewhat like in the show, Jon with a group of warriors going on a quest north to the wall, were they will fight wights to reach Brans.
Many will die, until the point they finally reach Brans throne room in the lands of ever winter, custody by white walkers
Because it has passed many years, Jon won't recognize Bran at first glance, but when he is infront of him, he will be shock by the truth.
By killing Bran, Jon will kill his Stark side of his bloodline family. Bran will open his eyes from his dream or nightmare, just to seeing Jon again after all this time, like he told him he would do when he was in coma in the first season, Jon promised to be there when Bran wake up. Bran will die in jons arms happily. Jons hair will turn grey and white (his Targaryen bloodline) and it would be a symbolic metaphor of him growing old, "dying" one last time after the painful thing he had to do.
Jon will never return south to the wall. Just like many others before him, they will talk about him not knowing what happened to him.
The long night is over and westeros can start to dream for the summer that will come.
I think it will be different in the show, I like to think Brandon stark travels back in time (bran the builder theory) than goes north of the wall, enters the tree, and lets it grow around him, waiting for himself to be born. It's a stretch though
Great video! Do you know why Jeor Mormont went to the wall?
Thanks! There isnt really a deep backstory to why he joined. He was just an honourable guy who noticed the threat of wildling invasions and wanted to help.
@@whycreate Did it have anything to do with the shame of his son being charged with selling poachers into slavery and fleeing to Essos to escape justice?
I’m just trying to figure out if Daemons body was never found, how and where was his sword found? Interesting this particular sword ends up with blood raven.. there has to be a reason..
Does anybody else think that the three eyed crow was visiting Crows Eye? He also had dreams of being able to fly as a child
Euron thinks the things Bran is meant to have (reborn as a god king iirc) are about him. Think about Bran becoming one with a weirwood, it's what the old gods did ;)
Bloodraven is in Dunk and Egg books
More please
