What if you wanted to be KING but your niece and nephews were BASTARDS and your brother was GAY and STUPID and everyone HATED you and you couldn’t find a DENTIST for your teeth you ground down and a PRIESTESS told you to kill your DAUGHTER and a CLOWN was there
O’ Poly of Percieved Wisdom! Tell us what you mean by Euron, Patchface and Jojen being failed Brynden Rivers experiments! Grace us with your theories O’ Great Shitlord!
i’m so bad at answering asks on time i am so sorry it’s been like 2 weeks. so let’s get into it.
okay so the role of a greenseer is rare, perilous, and a heavy burden to carry. Bloodraven serves as the last confirmed greenseer before Bran Stark, but what if Bran was not the first to be touched by this calling?
Evidence across the narrative suggests a repeating pattern: a grievous wound, a return from the brink, and the awakening of a strange sight or knowledge. and who fit these specific patterns? Euron Greyjoy, Patchface, and Jojen Reed. Each of them appears as though they were almost candidates for the greenseer’s path, but each came back wrong. Bran, uniquely, is the only one who fully survives the transformation.
Injury → Return → Wrongness → Gift
gpa uses a recurring rhythm of death and rebirth to mark those touched by the powers:
Euron: maimed and exiled —> returns as prophet/tyrant.
Patchface: drowned and lost —> returns as a fool who speaks prophecy.
Jojen: born frail, dying young —> gifted with greendreams but consumed by them.
Bran: crippled by a fall —> profit???
so lemme break it down some more.
Euron Greyjoy
The Wound/Return: Blinded in one eye by his brother, cast into exile. He disappears into Essos and gods know where else returning to stir shit after the shit has already been stirred
The Wrongness: His personality is inhumanly grandiose and annoying. he speaks of gods, dreams of world domination, and has the fuckass aura of someone who has glimpsed truths that no sailor should.
The Gift: His prophetic insight. He speaks like a dreamer and is insufferable about it:
“Crow’s Eye, you call me. Well, who has a keener eye than the crow? After every battle the crows come in their hundreds and their thousands to feast upon the fallen. A crow can espy death from afar. And I say that all of Westeros is dying. Those who follow me will feast until the end of their days.”
- the drowned man, AFFC
if being a greenseer is like plugging into the collective unconscious of Westeros, Euron might have brushed against it without the correct amount of guidance. Instead of channeling it through the weirwoods, he latched onto darker powers. if he was abandoned by brynden rivers, he may have become addicted to the feeling the potential power may have brought him, and became obsessed with searching for it elsewhere.
Patchface:
The Wound/Return: A promising boy, yeeted at sea. His body was lost for days, only to be pulled from the water, alive but “broken.”
The Wrongness: His mind is shattered. He appears as a fool, singing nonsense. Yet his “nonsense” constantly foreshadows doom and disaster and melisandre considers him dangerous. he must have powers within him that he cannot harness or control that conflicts with melisandre’s powers that stem from a different god.
The Gift: His ramblings predict Red Wedding horrors, the rise of the sea, the dead and the Others marching (“The shadows come to dance, my lord. Dance, my lord, dance my lord.”)
Speculation: Patchface was too cooked when he was sent to the brink of death by brynden rivers. Where Bran learns to swim, Patchface sank. patchface was a little too crispy. His visions of the deep are garbled transmissions from a signal too strong for his mind. He saw what was needed to be seen, but can not process.
Jojen Reed
The Wound/Return: Not a single dramatic something, but instead a body that is sickly, fragile, and “marked for death” from the start.
The Wrongness: His life is short; he feels consumed by his visions. He seems resigned to dying young, almost as though he was built to burn out.
The Gift: True green dreams, some of the clearest in the series. He knows things others cannot. He is Bran’s guide.
Speculation: Jojen was never meant to be the vessel. His body was too weak to withstand the burden of greenseeing. Instead, he became a temporary beacon, a means to an end, a short-lived guide meant to lead Bran to Bloodraven.
Bran Stark
The Wound/Return: A fall from a tower, leaving him crippled.
The Wrongness: reliant upon others, marked as broken. and this break allows him to turn inward, away from the sword and toward the tree.
The Gift: Full greenseer ability—he wargs, dreams, and finally connects with the weirwood network under Bloodraven’s tutelage.
The Success Story: Bran is what the others could not be. He survives the “green sea” where Patchface drowned, resists corruption where Euron fell, and endures where Jojen burned out. He is not merely touched by sight—he is the next greenseer.
Why This Fits Railroad Man’s Worldbuilding
Motif of cost: Every brush with higher power exacts a price—fire burns, shadow corrupts, ice freezes. Greenseeing is no exception.
Folkloric vibes: The crippled boy who sees, the fool who speaks truth, the prophet-king corrupted, the sickly youth consumed—all of these echo mythic archetypes of “chosen ones.”
Narrative symmetry: Bran’s journey fucks more harder if we realize he is the only one who succeeded where others failed.
Not all who drown in the green sea return. Some come back broken, corrupted, or consumed. Patchface babbles in riddles. Euron becomes a god-emperor of nothing except being the weird cousin. Jojen burns out too soon. Bran alone swims where the others sank.
The Dark Forest is a truly terrifying place, infamous among cats everywhere.
Bughop, once a loyal and courageous warrior, finds herself ensnared in this nightmarish place, with no hope of escape. Plagued by memories of her past, she struggles to endure the torment.
As Bughop navigates this wretched place, she discovers that not all cats can withstand the suffering. Many cats lose their minds, transforming into savage and twisted versions of themselves—unrecognizable, dangerous, and driven by madness.

Meet the characters !!
Meet Pomni Bughop!
Bughop is a cautious and jumpy cat who is trapped in the dark forest along with 5 other cats. Despite her initial skittishness, she demonstrates an innate sense of justice and often challenges the decisions of Foxteeth, the group's leader much to his annoyance.
Bughop is constantly plagued by a sense of restless anxiety. She is often found pacing back and forth, or compulsively scratching at the ground. Her behavior suggests an intense unease and a deep seated desire to escape
Meet Jax Rabbitthump!
Rabbitthump is a self-confident and unabashed cat, notorious for his cruel jokes and knack for picking on others' weaknesses, especially Tawnymouse.
No cat seems to know where he came from or what his past is, and he is quite content keeping it that way, relishing the sense of unease his mysteriousness creates among other cats.
Generally easygoing and carefree, Rabbitthump is never serious, except for those rare occasions when a critical event, like the tragic incident involving Cricketbouce, occured. Such incidents tend to make him uncharacteristically serious and even unnerved. Though, he’d never admit it.
Meet Ragatha Patchface!
Meet Gangle Tawnymouse!
Tawnymouse is a nervous and traumatized cat who used to be a Medicine Cat.
Due to consistent bullying from Rabbitthump, she is continuously on edge and always seeking to avoid confrontation.
Tawnymouse is naturally quiet and soft-spoken, and her behavior might be attributed to the fact she is always ready to flee at any moment.
She has heterochromia, a condition resulting from head trauma she sustained from an insedent with Rabbitthump The trauma has left her emotionally vulnerable and sensitive to any aggressive behavior.
