A greenseer is the name for the wise men of the children of the forest who had magical abilities that included power over nature and prophetic visions. Greenseers had the greensight and were wargs as well.[1] They were responsible for carving the faces into weirwood trees and stories describe the greenseers seeing through the faces of their weirwoods, influencing animal and plant life, and shattering the Arm of Dorne into the island chain of the Stepstones.

The relationship between the greenseers of the children of the forest and the order of green men who protect the Isle of Faces in the God's Eye has not been specified.
