Gendry Waters is a former blacksmith apprentice from King's Landing and bastard son of King Robert Baratheon's. He travels with Arya Stark from King's Landing in the direction of Riverrun. When they run into the Brotherhood Without Banners he joins them. After the split in the brotherhood he seems to have sided with Thoros of Myr.
King's Landing
Gendry was born in King's Landing not knowing who his father was. Tobho Mott, a master smith, took him on as an apprentice after being paid double the customary fee by a man who concealed his identity.
When Eddard Stark investigates the death of Jon Arryn's he meets several people who had met with Arryn shortly before his death, including Gendry. At once he sees the similarity with Robert Baratheon and recognizes that Gendry is his bastard. Gendry shows promise as a smith and makes a helmet in the shape of a bull.
Escape from King's Landing
After Eddard Stark's fall and eventual execution, Gendry becomes part of Yoren's band that travels North from King's Landing to join the Night's Watch, including Arya Stark, Lommy Greenhands, Hot Pie, Jaqen H'ghar, Rorge, Biter, and others. Not far from King's Landing they are stopped by several Goldcloaks, who demand to Yoren that he gives up Gendry as he is wanted by the Queen. Yoren refuses, and with his recruits chases the Goldcloaks off.
Around Gods Eye they are attacked by soldiers led by Ser Amory Lorch and Yoren is killed. Arya, Gendry, Lommy, and Hot Pie escape, only to be captured shortly after by soldiers led by Ser Gregor Clegane, who kill Lommy. They are taken to Harrenhal, where Gendry works as a smith. When Arya decides to escape from Harrenhal, however, she persuades Gendry and Hot Pie to join her.
Brotherhood Without Banners
While traveling in the direction of Riverrun, Arya, Gendry, and Hot Pie are captured by the Brotherhood Without Banners. Gendry is impressed with Thoros of Myr's description of the ideals of the brotherhood, and decides to join them, eventually working as a smith at the Inn of the Crossroads.
While questing to find Sansa Stark, Brienne of Tarth encounters Gendry at the inn, and is shocked by his striking resemblance to Renly Baratheon. At the inn, Brienne duels with Rorge and slays him, only to be savaged by Biter. Gendry saves Brienne's life by driving a spear through Biter's neck.
