Grigor "Mountain" Kligan is a minor character in the series "Game of Thrones." This man has inhuman power and a masterful character that borders on insanity. This antagonist was interested in many spectators by his relationship with his brother, the mysterious past and the phenomenal fight with Oberin Martel.
Character Overview
Grigor "Mountain" Kligan was the eldest child in the family, and therefore inherited the title of head of his house, which obeyed the Lannisters. From an early age he was distinguished by endurance and ardent disposition. When his brother took the toy from him without asking, he burned his face with a torch. With age, the man received more and more strength, and his body grew to incredible sizes.
Grigor "Mountain" Kligan ruled in his castle by force. A large number of his parents' servants disappeared in a mysterious way when he began to rule his lands. Lannisters have always appointed this character to lead the vanguard of their troops, because he was subject to the craziest warriors. It cost him nothing to plunder the territory, burn the whole city and kill thousands of innocent people. He always listened to orders and for this he earned a high post in the army of his feudal lords.
The first mention of a character
Grigor "Mountain" Kligan is mentioned as a participant in the capture of the Royal Harbor during the rebellion of Robert Baratheon against the Targaryen. He personally killed the wife of the Crown Prince and their two children, which earned him the honor of the Lannisters. In the first season of the series, this huge man represented his house in a jousting tournament in honor of the appointment of King Eddard Stark as the right hand. He easily pulled many opponents off the saddle, but was defeated by Loras Tyrell.
This infuriated him, and he took up real weapons in order to avenge the loss of the offspring of a noble house. Grigor “Gora” Kligan was the first to respond to the call for the outbreak of war and immediately began looting in the River Lands - in the homeland of
Katylin Stark. The right hand of the king declares his actions unlawful and deprives the titles, but the order does not enter into force due to the execution of Eddard Stark. After the capture of Jaime Lannister, the vassal Kligan receives an order to completely burn all the River lands, which was mentioned more than once in the series.
The most famous episodes with Kligan
In the following events, Grigor "Mountain" Kligan was engaged in the search for rebels, because he had already once encountered the famous fiery knight Berik Dondarrion and defeated him. In the future, the character is rare and enters the main arena only in the fourth season. Here he acts as a knight of Cersei Lannister and fights against Oberin Martell, a skilled warrior who participated in many battles in his homeland.
This movable fighter with the help of original equipment managed to kill Kligan, but at the last moment the Horus managed to grab his head with his own hands and crush the skull. Thus, both knights were killed in this battle. In season five, he was resurrected using Quibern's experiments. On the basis of his body, a faithful soldier was made, who will implicitly obey the orders of the new queen. The series does not say that the resurrected warrior is "Mountain", but the impressive size of his body suggests this idea.
