* EagleSquadron: Nestor Royce musters his house's forces to avenge the deaths of Jon Arryn and the men of the main Royce line, with knights from other Vale houses joining in. [[spoiler:Lysa (or more likely, Littlefinger) allows them to fight for Stannis without formally acknowledging his kingship so that they can hedge their bets and enjoy the spoils should he win but disavow Lord Nestor to the Lannisters should they lose.]]
* TheDreaded: Myrcella is this to Lum, who feels that if she were to represent any of the Seven, it would not be the Maiden but the Stranger. She is also this to the goldcloaks given how she killed so many of them in the attack on the Tower of the Hand that she was covered in their blood at the end of it.
* FireForgedFriends: Bran and Tyrek didn't like each other when they first met as squires, but bonded during and after the attack at the Kingswood. When Myrcella arrives at Fawnton to pick them up on her way to the Riverlands, they are vocal about wanting to support each other despite knowing that their families are enemies.
* FixingTheGame: Lum gambles with some Stormlanders on the outcome of the Trial of Seven, making easy money because he knows that Myrcella will win.
* GuileHero: While she is capable of fighting thanks to some training and magic, Myrcella lacks a computation orb with which to properly do so, which is significant considering that she's still pre-teen and small for her age. Thus, she defaults to her intelligence, planning and speech skills to meet her goals. She tells Jaime and Tyrion that she can be persuasive and proves it when she convinces a dismissed and shamed Barristan, an imprisoned Beric Dondarrion, and eventually all of the Stormlands to declare for her.
* TheHeretic: Myrcella frames Stannis as this given his abjuration of the Seven and burning Westerosi lords in the name of R'hllor.
* IGaveMyWord: Myrcella sees Bran returned to Ned and asks for nothing in return because she promised to do so back at the Tower of the Hand.
* TheLancer: Ned supplants Davos as this for Stannis, giving him leal service and blunt advice on how they should proceed in the war. He also becomes Melisandre's most vocal opponent and tries to steer Stannis away from burning so many people.

** Brienne was initially brought in to become Myrcella's sworn shield and to inform Renly of her comings and goings. This subterfuge ends when Renly dies in the Kingswood.
* NiceToTheWaiter: Myrcella treats the smallfolk of the Red Keep and King's Landing well, which earns her a reputation as a perfect princess and personification of the Maiden.
* NumberTwo: Myrcella has two, Ser Cortnay, who acts as her regent for the Stormlands, and Ser Barristan, who acts as the commander of her war host.
* OnlySaneMan: After Myrcella's departure to the Stormlands and Tyrion having no authority to do anything, Jaime becomes this for the royal court in King's Landing. He manages to keep aware of the Lannisters' political needs and tries to curb Joffrey and Cersei's worst ideas, to varying degrees of success.
* PraetorianGuard: Myrcella organizes Brienne and the Stormlander knights into a personal Stormguard.
* RapePillageAndBurn: The brutality of Tywin's rampage on the Riverlands exceeds the cruelty of his campaign in canon, with him having captured and surrendering Riverlanders turned into sex slaves, labor slaves or meat shields in an attempt to demoralize the Riverlords and goad them into open battle.
* RedBaron: Thanks to her aggression during their training sessions, the redcloaks dubbed Brienne the "Terror of Tarth".
* SpottingTheThread: Myrcella notices illusory magic on Melisandre because prior experience taught her to look for it. She also sees that Stannis' flaming sword isn't actually on fire because there is no heat distortion.
* TortureIsIneffective: Cersei has Loras tortured to try to break him and make him swear fealty to Joffrey, thinking this would make House Tyrell follow suit. [[spoiler:This fails spectacularly when Loras shows his maiming to an open court, denounces Joffrey and declares for Stannis. Joffrey kills him in a rage, along with any chance for peace with the Reach.]]
* TrainingMontage: There are a few training scenes shown, from Bran and the king's squires, as well as Myrcella's training of Brienne and the redcloaks.
* TrialByCombat: Myrcella challenges the Stormlords to a Trial of Seven to "prove" to them that Joffrey is the rightful king and that Stannis is a usurper, counting on its religious significance to both ensure they will accept and that they will turn to her cause if she wins. She even joins in the trial herself, proclaiming that the Seven would see her victorious because she is right. Her gamble pays off and she becomes the Paramount Lady of the Stormlands.

He manages to keep aware of the Lannisters' political needs and tries to curb Joffrey and Cersei's worst ideas, to varying degrees of success.
* PraetorianGuard: Myrcella organizes Brienne and the Stormlander knights into a personal Stormguard.
* RapePillageAndBurn: The brutality of Tywin's rampage on the Riverlands exceeds the cruelty of his campaign in canon, with him having captured and surrendering Riverlanders turned into sex slaves, labor slaves or meat shields in an attempt to demoralize the Riverlords and goad them into open battle.
* RedBaron: Thanks to her aggression during their training sessions, the redcloaks dubbed Brienne the "Terror of Tarth".
* SpottingTheThread: Myrcella notices illusory magic on Melisandre because prior experience taught her to look for it. She also sees that Stannis' flaming sword isn't actually on fire because there is no heat distortion.
* TortureIsIneffective: Cersei has Loras tortured to try to break him and make him swear fealty to Joffrey, thinking this would make House Tyrell follow suit. [[spoiler:This fails spectacularly when Loras shows his maiming to an open court, denounces Joffrey and declares for Stannis. Joffrey kills him in a rage, along with any chance for peace with the Reach.]]
* TrainingMontage: There are a few training scenes shown, from Bran and the king's squires, as well as Myrcella's training of Brienne and the redcloaks.
* TrialByCombat: Myrcella challenges the Stormlords to a Trial of Seven to "prove" to them that Joffrey is the rightful king and that Stannis is a usurper, counting on its religious significance to both ensure they will accept and that they will turn to her cause if she wins. She even joins in the trial herself, proclaiming that the Seven would see her victorious because she is right. Her gamble pays off and she becomes the Paramount Lady of the Stormlands.
