Books

Ser Walder Rivers, also known as Bastard Walder,[1] is a knight and the eldest of Lord Walder Frey's bastards. Walder's personal coat of arms is a silver-grey castle on blue (the colors of House Frey reversed) beneath a red bend sinister.[1][2]

Appearance and Character

Walder is gruff, dour, and has grey hair. Though not a trueborn Frey, he is often put in positions of responsibility due to his strong reputation as a warrior.[3] He is resentful of his bastard status.[4]

History

Walder's mother died after falling from a horse.[5]

When Chett was caught for murder near Sevenstreams, Walder was sent from the Twins to judge him. Chett ended up being sent to the Wall.[6]

Recent Events

A Storm of Swords

Walder commands the escort of Lothar Frey on his trip south to Riverrun where Lothar is to treat with Robb Stark.[3] Walder accompanies Lothar on his meeting with Robb outside the gates of the Twins, but is much less friendly than his half-brother. During the Red Wedding, he commands the attack on the soldiers' camp.[7]

A Feast for Crows

Walder is present at the siege of Riverrun, where he has a modest tent. He participates in the heated stalemate that plagues the besieging army's command.[1] Walder informs Ser Jaime Lannister that Ryman Frey was hanged by outlaws near Fairmarket and that Raynald Westerling is presumed dead from the Red Wedding.[8]

Quotes about Walder

Jaime: You were speaking of the Freys you wanted dead. Ryman, Edwyn, Emmon ...
Daven: And Walder Rivers, that whoreson. Hates that he is a bastard, and hates everyone who's not.[4]
