Batman Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 How did you feel about him and the Frey's before the Red Wedding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mladen Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Not too highly... There is a reason why he was called `Late Lord Frey` by Hoster Tully. That was a good indicator of what kind of man he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jehane Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Never liked Walder Frey; I always thought he was a disgusting pedophile. After the RW, my opinion of him dropped even lower, if possible. Now I want that character dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a good indicator of what kind of man he is.Pretty much this. I won't say I saw the RW coming, but there were plenty of signs that the guy couldn't be trusted. Like Robb and Catelyn I misjudged just how little trust he was worth though - I thought be might deny Robb passage or something similar, but nothing like what happened. Of course, with hindsight, there are a fair few indicators that it was going to happen, but then you know what they say about hindsight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grip Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Probably quite indifferent, they were just another House really. I mean they fought for Robb so I probably respected them for that but otherwise they didn't really stand out until the RW. I did like Ser Stevron though, and wasn't to fond of Walder IIRC.

Prince Bran Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Obviously I felt negatively about him based on his reputation and interactions, but several Freys had served Robb well and I was beginning to acquire a bit of respect for that house (if not Walder Frey himself). Then shit got crazy, and he's public enemy #1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then shit got crazy, and he's public enemy #1.Yeah. What is often overlooked is the fact that House Frey did fight for Robb and greatly helped his cause, I mean Walder lost his son and heir Ser Stevron in the war as well as other Frey's.

Tywin's Honour Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 I always found Walder and his posse of Freys of the same mould as the Reynes, wherein they did not actively respect their liege lords. Perhaps the Tullys were a bit lax in reigning in Lord Walder and his wayward ways, which subsequently led to the outright betrayal of the RW. I very much doubt Lord Walder would act as callously as he had in the past, even back in the War of the Usurper days, if the Lannisters were his liege lords.

Syphon the Sanitator Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 I already disliked him because it was clear he was very petty. In a world where honouring your liege lord and obeying him is paramount, his refusal to come when Tully called his banners should have been taken as intentional and seen him kicked from his holdings. In short: He should have been Goodbrooked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Noone Sword Of The Day Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 I hardly thought about him much until the third book again, I just thought he was a miserable old c**t hahaha and greedy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaarioKnowsBest Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 possibly the funniest character in all the books.cracked me up in his one scene.in todays world he would be the "you kids get off my lawn!" guy.

Sullen Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 A shrewd, but somewhat vile, old man.I thought he was one of the funniest side characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 I liked him before and I like him after. I enjoy his nonchalant attitude and the fact that he doesn't give a damn about anyone. He's a great troll and isn't afraid to say what he means. All of his scenes had me laughing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alistair's Pantaloons Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 I didn't respect him as much, honestly. The Red Wedding bought him some respect and that's what I think needs to be stripped from him to make him properly punished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pootie Tang Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 As old slimey men goes i always regarded him as a close second to Craster. Say what you want of the lord of the crossing, but I'm fairly sure that guy is about expanding the gene-pool rather than keeping it in the family.
