Bamsi got his name after Bay Büre sent his merchants to bring some presents. As time went by, the merchants arrived in Constantinople and bought some items, however, on their way back to Bay Büre, they were attacked by some infidels. The son of Bay Büre himself came and helped the merchants by killing all the infidels who attacked them. The son of Bay Büre didn't have any name as an Oghuz Turk was given his name when he beheaded an infidel. So the son of Bay Büre decided to receive these presents from his father instead of introducing himself. When the merchants came back to Bay Büre, they started kissing the young man's hand, the young man had already arrived and didn't tell his father about anything.

Helena's father, Andros, had been killed by his adoptive son, Vasilius. Vasilius, thinking that he could manipulate Helena into marrying him, starts a feud with Bamsı together with his soldier, Teo.

Season 5

Шаблон:See also In the fifth season, Bamsı and Hafsa appear with two children, Aslıhan, who is skilled with a sword and named after Turgut's martyred wife Aslıhan Hatun, and Aybars, who at first loves to read and study but later, to please his father, starts using a sword more often too. Hafsa constantly attempts to convince Bamsı to leave the Kayı when she has tensions with Selcan Hatun, Ertuğrul's sister-in-law, who only has tensions with her because of stress over what had been happening to her husband and sons in Ahlat. The misunderstandings between the two escalate because of the devious Sırma of the Umuroğlu, whose brother Beybolat had been the cause of the problems faced by Selcan's family. Following a failed ambush because of Bamsı, he has his position as Chief Alp taken for a while as a punishment. Bamsı, ever caring for his wife and children, is led into a trap set by Dragos, an evil former Byzantine Commander, when attempting to save his son Aybars, kidnapped by Dragos. As the season progresses, Sırma is killed, Bamsı becomes the Chief Alp again, and Hafsa and Selcan's misunderstandings are resolved.

In Kuruluş: Osman

Шаблон:See also After 10 or 15 years, after Hafsa and Aslıhan die in a plague and Aybars is also martyred, Beyrek becomes a close companion of Ertuğrul's son Osman, joining him in battles and helping him become the Bey of the tribe. He also helps convert Aybars' killer, Salvador, to Islam, giving him the name 'Sıddık', and adopting him as his son. After Sıddık is martyred by Princess Sofia, Bamsı mourns for him as much as he did for Aybars.

He is later martyred by Kara Şaman Togay, the son of his old enemy Baycu Noyan, devastating his protege Cerkutay.

Personality and other information

Bamsı Beyrek is a very loving person, especially to his wife and children, he would count the days since they died and wouldn't stop remembering them for anything. He also treated his adoptive son, Sıddık, with as much love as he did for his son, Aybars. He was jolly nearly all the time, had a funny character by nature, and would joke a lot. His fighting style was also unique as he used two swords rather than one, and he was an aggressive warrior.

His official character description on the TRT 1 website states; "An indispensable alp of the Kayi tribe, Bamsi is a skilled soldier who can fight with double swords. Despite his fierce looks, he has a kind heart inside."

In Diriliş: Ertuğrul, Banu ChichekШаблон:Refn also made an appearance, however, she married Beyrek's best friend, Doğan Alp. In the same way, another character from the Book of Dede Korkut, Selcan Hatun, also made an appearance in the series.

Grave

A grave marked as 'Bey Böyrek Bamsi Beyrek Turbesi' is in the village of Erenli (Beyrek was also captured by the castle of the same name of the city the village was centered in, Bayburt) in modern Turkey. This grave is thought to be Beyrek's, however, it could be of someone with the same name. Even though, Bamsi is traditionally thought to be fictional, it is believed by some people that he was indeed a real person because of this grave. Dede Korkut's grave is said to be in the village of Masat, however, he is also likely to be fictional.
