Current Character: n/a
IC INFO;
Character Name: Ygritte
Canon: Game of Thrones
Canon Information: GOT wiki
Canon Point: Season 4, Episode 9. Post-death
Age: 19
God Houses:
Frigg - Ygritte is a spearwife, a woman warrior. She fought for her people in the midst of a war with people to the south who held misconceptions of her people. These people kidnapped children of her people. She would eventually lay down her life for this cause.
Mimir - Since Ygritte is one of the best spearwives, she's been able to survive. She's at least skilled in weaponry, tracking people and animals, and she does understand the larger goings on of her King Beyond the Wall. The biggest threat to this series starts above the Wall, where her people were treated like crap and made to survive in the harshest of climates. She's been able to not only survive but do well for herself as a spearwife. She knows what her objectives are, and even despite the doubts to Jon Snow's intentions, she still thinks she can make him loyal and keep him loyal to the Wildlingsand threatens to cut his cock off.
Personality:
Abrasive. That is probably the best word to describe Ygritte. She is opinionated and she tends to not care about other people. She does things her way, and doesn't find a use for any other way. She was raised in a very different environment, raised as a wildling above the Wall. This sets her a part from most of the characters in the book as wildlings are nomadic and like the term implies, wild. They often get into small skirmishes with those south of the Wall, due to the Wall actually being there. Wildlings are indigenous to Westeros whereas most of the people in Westeros who are decendants of Andals.
Pretty much, it's a pissing contest between the North and the wildlings, since they both claim the land. But it has everything to do with how they act. Wildlings consider themselves free, taking no king unless they choose one. These are things instilled in Ygritte. She is what she fights for, freedom and land. This is why she does what she does, motivated by the idea of keeping her land and her people safe.
Ygritte is abrubt, crass. She speaks her mind. She isn't afraid to take what she wants, do as she pleases. Trying to get her to live by rules also isn't the easiest thing. Though she knows there are some limits. She also has no problem attempting to get around them, or at least stress them. In the sense that those rules are not her own, not something she chose.
Their traditions and way of life are entirely different. They look down on the Southerners as much as the Southerners look down on them. She considers herself free, not bowing to a man who simply inherited his power. Being a spearwife, she's earned the title. When we first see her, she would rather die with honor instead of fearing death or begging for her life. It's partly why Jon respects her and couldn't kill her (the other part being she was a woman).
There also is no shame. Wildlings really are free. They're open, and sex and sexuality doesn't seem to be a big thing. If you want to have it, you do. It's a way of life. If you want something, you go for it. Of course if someone tries to take something off of a wildling, expect one hell of a fight.
We mostly see her interactions with Jon. He's lost his father and has chosen his life on the Wall. Ygritte is generally obnoxious with him, especially when she finds out he's never been with a woman. The concept is baffling to her, and the more she gets to know him, the more she likes him. It doesn't come off like normal girls, flirting and being coy. No, Ygritte propositions him daily once he's believed to be a turncloak and travels with the wildlings.
She does decide to trust him though. She's incredibly loyal, both to her convictions and those she trusts. When the Night's Watch attacks the group of Wildlings, Ygritte vouches for Jon, saying they're having sex. This pretty much solidifies that he is a turncloak.
There is a softer side. It's just buried in all those furs. She does like Jon, often telling him about the wildlings. Once their relationship becomes a bit more, she even admits that she wishes they could stay in the cave forever. This is exemplified by what she tells him when she's dying. Even if she would never be a Crow's wife, she would have rather been with him, despite everything. She's not only brave in battle or when her life is on the line, but she truly does whatever her heart wishes.
