Re: The Official Game of Thrones [A Song of Ice and Fire] Thread
No one really knows what he is, but he's some kind of dead person. Similar to the blue eyed dead wights that attacked Jon Snow and Mormont at Castle Black, but dressed in the Black of the Night's Watch, with black, ice cold hands and he rides an elk and has a flock or ravens that he commands.
In the books, he's helpful to a lot of characters although on one knows why. He's the one that saves Sam and Gilly from the White Walker (in the book, that same flock of Ravens show up, but it's because he sent them), and calls Sam "brother" (Night's Watch tie?), and then escorts Sam and Gilly to the Wall where they run into Bran and the Reeds. He is also involved with the mutineers and Bran and the Reeds, but since we don't know where they are taking that story on the show, I won't tell you whether he helps them or hurts them or does nothing.
Here's a picture.
Since it's not really relevant and the show isn't using this character, can you explain the Coldhands character?
