Davos Seaworth

Davos Seaworth (a.k.a. "the Onion Knight") is a fictional character from George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire. He is a POV character in A Clash of Kings, A Storm of Swords and A Dance with Dragons, of 13 chapters, and a main character in the television adaptation Game of Thrones. 2Character 3Background Davos, a smuggler at the time of Robert Baratheon's rebellion, brought onions along with other food supplies to Storm's End, then under siege by Mace Tyrell and the Redwynes, to Stannis Baratheon and his men. As a reward for this service, Stannis had Davos knighted; as a punishment for years of illicit smuggling, however, Stannis personally "shortened" Davos' left hand, cutting the fingers off at the furthest joint. Davos later kept the remains in a pouch about his neck, and refers to them in the books as his "luck." Davos was given lands on Cape Wrath and has a Keep there. He is married and has seven sons. 3Character Davos is loyal to Stannis, due to the life and opportunities that Stannis knighting him has presented to Davos and his family. However, he sometimes disagrees with Stannis's methods. Davos is a devout believer in the Seven, which puts him at odds with Melissandre and the Queen's Men, who worship R'hllo
