Biography[]
Game of Thrones: Season 5[]
While sailing to Oldtown, the captain is bribed by Jaime to smuggle him and Bronn into Dorne and keep it a secret.[1]
After dropping off Jaime and Bronn on a Dornish beach, the captain tries to sell this information to Obara Sand in Planky Town. Unfortunately for him, she is insulted that he does not offer up such a vital warning for free, and tortures him. The Sand Snakes bury him up to his neck in the sand, gagged, and covered by a bucket filled with scorpions. Later, Obara kills the captain by impaling him with a spear.[1]
In the books[]
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, there is no parallel character. Jaime and Bronn never travel to Dorne; instead, Cersei sends there Ser Balon Swann on an official mission to take Myrcella back, so he does not need to smuggle himself into the country.

Notes[]
- ↑ In "Winter Is Coming," which takes place in 298 AC, Sansa Stark tells Cersei Lannister that she is 13 years old and Bran Stark tells Jaime Lannister that he is 10 years old. Arya Stark was born between Sansa and Bran, making her either 11 or 12 in Season 1. The rest of the Stark children have been aged up by 2 years from their book ages, so it can be assumed that she is 11 in Season 1. Arya is 18 in Season 8 according to HBO, which means at least 7 years occur in the span of the series; therefore, each season of Game of Thrones must roughly correspond to a year in-universe, placing the events of Season 5 in 302 AC.
