"Here’s the thing, fat boy. When I'm done talking, that arrow's falling down on your fat head. So I advise you move, because I'm done talking."
―Anguy to Hot Pie[src]

Anguy is a skilled archer hailing from the Stormlands and a member of the Brotherhood Without Banners.

Biography[]

Game of Thrones: Season 3[]

Anguy is among the company of Thoros of Myr when they come across Arya Stark, Gendry and Hot Pie. He coerces an unwilling Hot Pie into following them to a nearby inn by making an impressive trick-shot. Later on, he presents a captured Sandor Clegane to his companions and is met with a roar of approval, and is present when Sandor reveals Arya's identity.[1]

Arya the climb

Anguy teaches Arya archery.

After bringing his captive before Beric Dondarrion, he voices his disgust over the atrocities committed by the Lannister forces at the Mummer's Ford.[3] Later he is present during the trial by combat which the Hound kills Lord Beric and is freed from his accusations.[2]

Anguy teaches Arya how to shoot a bow properly, when confronted by Melisandre, who has come to claim Gendry for the Lord of Light. He does nothing to stop her, earning himself the wrath of Arya.[4]

When Arya runs away from the Brotherhood, Anguy is sent to bring her back. He is unsuccessful when she is captured by the Hound instead and taken away.[5]

In the books[]

In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, Anguy is a superb archer from the Dornish Marches, the mountainous southern region of the stormlands which borders Dorne. He won the archery competition during the Hand's tourney and was approached by Alyn, a guardsman on orders from Eddard Stark to offer him a place on the Stark household guard, but Anguy drunkenly declined. Anguy is part of the Iron Throne host assembled by Eddard Stark to execute Ser Gregor Clegane and becomes one of the founders of the brotherhood without banners after the battle at the Mummer's Ford.

Many characters who later formed the brotherhood were introduced at the Hand's tourney in the first novel. This tourney did occur in Season 1 of the TV series, but the characters were not introduced, because they would not make a significant appearance until Season 3 - they are briefly mentioned in the first novel but only reappear as "the brotherhood" in the third novel (though as in Season 2 of the TV series, in the second novel characters do mention that something called "the brotherhood" is harassing Lannister supply lines).

After the Red Wedding, the brotherhood finds Catelyn's body. Despite Thoros's objection, Beric passes her his flame of life; he dies, and Catelyn is reanimated as the monstrous Lady Stoneheart. Under the leadership of Lady Stoneheart, the brotherhood falls low, and currently it is no longer different than any outlaw band; as a result, Anguy and many others abandon the brotherhood.
