Backside the scenes

• The pattern of the Three-Eyed Raven in Bran's dreams (as an bodily Three-Eyed Raven) was developed past William Simpson. At that place was considerable deliberation on where exactly the tertiary heart should be located, equally it wasn't specified in the books. For a fourth dimension, Simpson considered actually putting information technology in the back of the head, to requite it a full 360 degree field of vision. Nevertheless, he later settled on putting it in the middle of the forehead. The Three-Eyed Raven is played by a real-life raven, only its third eye is digitally added in post-product.^[14]
• Max von Sydow was nominated for the Emmy Award for Outstanding Invitee Actor in a Tv Serial for his performance as the character in the sixth season.
• On the Season half-dozen Blu-Ray, the Three-Eyed Raven narrates the Histories & Lore video "Children of the Forest vs. the First Men".

In the books

In the A Song of Water ice and Fire novels, the bird is a 3-eyed crow rather than a raven. The crow is more than active in Bran'south dreams; it helps him wake from his coma. The crow speaks to Bran, telling him it can teach him how to fly, other times it screeches the words "fly or dice".

When Bran finally meets him in the cave beyond the Wall, the three-eyed crow is revealed to be a pale, skeletal man in rotted black habiliment in a weirwood throne of tangled roots. His skin is white, aside from a red blotch on his neck and cheek. He has fine, white hair long plenty to accomplish the earthen flooring. He is missing i centre, while the other is red. Weirwood roots environs the human and grow through his torso, including his leg and his empty eye socket. His voice is slow and dry, as if he had forgotten how to speak. It is also unsaid that he was once a man of the Night'southward Watch, due to his tattered black cloak - which means that the "iii-eyed crow" name is a double-meaning that was lost when the Boob tube serial chose to consistently refer to him equally the "Three-Eyed Raven".

Inside the books, there are numerous details that indicate who the three-eyed crow was before he entered the cavern, but only few of them take fabricated it into the series. The iii-eyed crow tells Bran that he has many names, and his birth name is Brynden - hence the theory that he is Brynden "Bloodraven" Rivers, a legitimized bounder son of King Aegon IV Targaryen and onetime Lord Commander of the Nighttime's Scout who was lost beyond the Wall. Bloodraven lost ane of his eyes years earlier beingness sent to the Wall, and the 3-eyed crow's true grade is indeed missing an middle, but in the series the Three-Eyed Raven still has both his optics (similarly to the show portrayal of Euron Greyjoy). It's not articulate if this means that the theory is incorrect, or if the writers simply decided not to address his identity.

One of the visions Melisandre sees in the flames is about a "wooden face, corpse white" with a chiliad red eyes, accompanied past a boy with a wolf's face; she wonders if this is the enemy. It is speculated by fans that mysterious figure is the iii-eyed crow: he has white peel and pilus, lives inside a tree, and (according to Leaf) has a thousand eyes and 1; the boy is Bran.
