"Aggar and Gelmarr! Wex and Urzen! Stygg and Black Lorren!"
Theon lists his comrades.[src]

Urzen was an ironborn raider and a member of the Sea Bitch crew. He took part in the capture of Winterfell during the War of the Five Kings.

Biography[]

Game of Thrones: Season 2[]

Urzen is present when Theon gives a speech encouraging his crew to resist the Northmen led by Ramsay Snow, and to die a glorious death.[1]

Game of Thrones: Season 3[]

Balon and Yara Greyjoy learn that the ironborn captured at Winterfell were all flayed alive on Ramsay's orders, despite being promised mercy if they surrendered.[2]

In the books[]

In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, Urzen's background is the same. He is among the ironborn who raid the Stony Shore and part of the force that captures Winterfell.

As Theon's position becomes hopeless, he tells the ironborn they can leave and join his sister's troops at Deepwood Motte or stay and fight with him against the Northmen, who will arrive soon to retake Winterfell. Urzen is among those who choose to leave.

Urzen is not mentioned in the books afterwards.

Notes[]

  1. 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 2 in 299 AC.
