Thoros of Myr is a red priest from Myr in Essos. He becomes part of the Brotherhood Without Banners and is responsible for resurrecting Beric Dondarrion.

AppearanceEdit

Thoros of Myr is described as a tall, fat bald man who wears loose robes. He is very old by the time he joins the Brotherhood Without Banners.

HistoryEdit

Thoros of Myr was the youngest of eight children and handed over to the priests of R'hllor as a little boy. He came to King's Landing, hoping that he could convert Aerys II Targaryen to worshipping R'hllor because Aerys was so obsessed with fire. However, it only made him question his own religion, as he was never extremely pious to begin with. He was once a drinking companion of Robert I Baratheon and he fought at Pyke during the Greyjoy Rebellion.
