Euron is pale and handsome with black
hair and a dark beard. He wears a patch over his left eye, and is nicknamed Crow's
Eye. According to Euron's nephew, Theon Greyjoy, the patch conceals a
"black eye shining with malice".
His right eye is as blue as summer sky and is regarded as his
"smiling eye". In addition, his lips are a pale blue, due to his
propensity to drink shade of the evening.

Rahvin, aka Gaebril, was said to be as
handsome as Lanfear
was beautiful, with an insatiable appetite for the company of beautiful women.
He had black hair, which was white at the temples
“The place where you stand
lies in the shadow of Shayol Ghul.” More than one voice
moaned at that; the man who called himself Bors was not sure his own was not
among them. A touch of what might almost be called mockery entered Ba’alzamon’s
voice as he spread his arms wide. “Fear not, for the Day of your Master’s
rising upon the world is near at hand. The Day of Return draws nigh. Does it not tell you so that I am here, to be seen by
you favored few among your brothers and sisters? Soon the Wheel of Time will be broken.
Soon the Great Serpent will die, and with the power of that death, the death of
Time itself, your
Master will remake the world in his own image for this Age and for all Ages to
come. And those who serve me, faithful
and steadfast, will sit at my feet above the stars in the sky and rule the
world of men forever. So, have I promised, and so shall it be, without end. You
shall live and rule forever.”

Euron speaking to Aeron, excerpt from TWOW – The Forsaken,
tells him of his interpretation of the bleeding star. Just like in The Wheel of Time the Dark One’s prophecies were
much different from those who were against the Dark One.

Rahvin’s two major
weaknesses were his love of sycophancy and his fondness for women. Many people gained positions in his administration by flattering
him, although he was quick to remove them if the proved too unsuited to the
position. And although a handsome man he could not stand rejection. His lovers
were seldom allowed any choice in the matter. Much of the laxity of his
administration can be attributed to time spent with his lovers.
Through the use of Compulsion, he persuaded Morgase to accept him as her
lover and consort as well as advisor, insinuating himself into the palace
political structure. Before long, Morgase was
rendered powerless under his "suggestions." Rahvin kept her in what
felt to her like a lovesick haze. She was virtually unaware of her surroundings
due to the Compulsion and intent only on earning her "advisor's"
approval by doing his bidding, even as he dandled
another woman on his knee.
Then Euron
lifted a great horn to his lips and blew, and dragons and krakens and sphinxes
came at his command and bowed before him. “Kneel, brother,” the Crow’s Eye
commanded. “I
am your king, I am your god. Worship me, and I will raise you up to be my priest.”
“Never. No
godless man may sit the Seastone Chair!”
Aeron Damphair looked. The
mound of skulls was gone. Now it was metal underneath the Crow’s Eye: a great,
tall, twisted seat of razor sharp iron, barbs and blades and broken swords, all
dripping blood.
“Why would I
want that hard black rock? Brother, look again and see
where I am seated.”
Beside him stood a
shadow in woman’s form, long and tall and terrible, her hands alive with pale
white fire. Dwarves capered for their
amusement, male and female, naked and misshapen, locked in carnal embrace,
biting and tearing at each other as Euron and his mate laughed and laughed and
laughed...
Note: Since Rahvin had his eye
on the Queen Morgase Trakand who sat the Lion Throne I think Euron will do the
same with Cersei who sits the Iron Throne.
I believe
the woman described as a shadow in woman’s form, long and tall and terrible her
hands alive with pale white fire is Cersei.
Like Rahvin; Euron has a love of sycophancy asking his brother
to worship him. We also know when it
comes to women he is also like Rahvin.
He was exiled to begin with for seducing and impregnating his brother’s wife, that same brother
intended to kill him, and then when he returns he gives that same brother a woman he knows he has also slept with. It is also implied that he abused two of his brother
sexually when they were growing up. We know from the books he has the horn Dragonbinder which is supposed to bind dragons to his will. Does he have anything, like compulsion, that binds people to his will also?
“Gaebril
spends most of his nights with you, but Alteima has nearly
as much of his time. He spreads himself thin with the other six. Five have rooms in the Palace. One, a big-eyed young
thing, he sneaks in and out for some reason all swathed in a cloak, even in
this heat. Perhaps she has a husband. I'm sorry, girl, but truth is truth.
'Better to face the bear than run from it.’
Alteima |
Morgase's
knees sagged, and if Lini had not
hurriedly pulled a chair from the table to shove under her, she would have sat
down on the floor. Alteima. Him watching the two of them as they gossiped took
on a new image, now. A man fondly watching two of his pet cats at play. And six others!”
Could the scene we saw in the
trailer before season 7 airs of Yara and Ellaria Sand kissing be Euron “watching
two of his pet cats at play”?

Euron Crow’s Eye stood upon
the deck of Silence,
clad in a suit
of black scale armor like nothing Aeron had ever seen before. Dark as smoke it
was, but Euron wore it as easily as if it was the thinnest silk. The
scales were edged in red gold, and gleamed and shimmered when they moved.
Patterns could be seen within the metal, whorls and glyphs and arcane symbols
folded into the steel.
Valyrian steel, the Damphair knew. His armor is
Valyrian steel. In all the Seven Kingdoms, no man owned a suit of
Valyrian steel. Such things had been known 400 years ago, in the days before
the Doom, but even then, they would’ve
cost a kingdom.
The Seven Kingdoms |
Euron did not lie. He has been
to Valyria. No wonder he was mad.
“Burning shafts hissed upward,
trailing tongues of fire. Scarecrow brothers tumbled down, black cloaks ablaze.
“Snow,” an eagle cried, as foemen scuttled up the ice like spiders. Jon was armored in black ice, but his blade burned red in his
fist. As the dead men reached the top of the Wall he sent them down
to die again.”
Jon Snow |
In the end Rahvin was killed
by Rand al’Thor who used balefire to kill him for good unable
to be resurrected by the Dark One.
So, to me this says that in
the end Euron will be killed by what I have said is the metaphorical balefire in ASOIAF which is dragon
fire. I have always said that
both Jon Snow and Daenerys are both being setup to be
the Rand al’Thor
character so one of them will eventually kill Euron using dragon fire.

Rand al'Thor |
But let us take a look at what
Euron is wearing “a suit of Valyrian Steel armor”. Is the dream that Jon has about himself
armored in black ice tell us that Jon is wearing the suit of armor that Euron
is shown wearing? If so does he kill Euron
and take it as his own. Also
note that in the
same dream his blade burned red in his fist. This tells me that Jon is Azor
Ahai and he has also come into possession of Dawn
which I believe to be the Red Sword of Heroes; Lightbringer.

Dawn which I believe to be Lightbringer |
If Euron is portrayed like in
the books he will be worse than Ramsay Snow. His ship, the Silence, is crewed entirely by mutes whose tongues he ripped out. I would describe the two as similar but Euron makes him
look like an amateur.
Ramsay Snow And you thought things couldn't get worse |
Comments encouraged. Love to hear the
ideas of others. Most believe that since I present my idea’s as “fact
like” I’m not open to change my viewpoints which is far from the truth. I
simply look at the information presented and go from there. If you can
shine a light on another way of thinking that opens the door to debate.
