Biography[]
Game of Thrones: Season 2[]
The Drowned Priest baptizes Theon.
This Drowned Man is the one who conducts the baptism of Theon Greyjoy after his return to Pyke and his decision to join his father in his invasion of the North.[1]
In the books[]
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, Aeron Greyjoy presides over Theon's baptism, and he does this as soon as Theon arrives in Pyke, before taking him to the castle. Given that Aeron "Damphair" Greyjoy is Theon's uncle and an important character in later books in the series, the producers wanted to forgo having to make a major casting decision until his main storyline begins.[2] Aeron made his series debut in the sixth season episode "Home", but his storyline from the novels was abandoned.
