Best A Song of Ice and Fire Characters

He is a master in this game, given the right pieces.

BEST CHARACTER, his wit and humor never ceases to make me laugh

If all Lannister's were like him (or Jaime) they would probably be my favourite house, but Cersei and Joffrey made sure that never happens. Nevertheless he is a very smart and humorous character that is being put down by everyone. :(

He is the God of Tits and Wine. Plus you can't help but feel sorry for him, especially after A Storm of Swords. He's one of the only decent Lannister's (aside from Jaime after A Storm of Swords and maybe Kevan)

This Northern wolf princess, Sansa Stark of Winter-fell and that English white princess, Elizabeth of York (The White Queen/Princess) are very similar to each other because they're equally both the eldest daughters to two powerful families, their marriages would determine who would rule their kingdoms, they were the keys to the North and England after their brothers' deaths, trained to be proper ladies and beautiful.

The most admirable character in a Song of Ice and Fire. She has all of her fathers best traits, his kindness and honor but adds an extraordinary level of perceptiveness, intelligence and an iron will that preserves her, despite her youth and inexperience through a series of ordeals that would break most characters in the series.

I honestly don't get the hate for her, I didn't really care for her in A Game of Thrones but A Clash of Kings onward she became one of my favourite characters.

I wanna punch Cersei right in her face for unfairly executing Sansa's dire-wolf, Lady.

The character everyone hated in books 1 and 2 and then loved afterwards. The tragedy of Jaime is that in his heart he's a good man. He's a man who once believed in being a knight in shining armour protecting what he thought was right. He's branded for his actions and manipulated by most around him, the only Lannister who doesn't seem to actively seek out power. He's amazing, human, and not black and white, and that's why I love him.

By far the best character development. You go from hating him more than any other character and wanting him dead to loving him more than any other character and hoping he survives the series and gets his honour back.

People who are just starting the books always get mad when I say I love him. Well I do, and that's that. He is a very well written character, one who progresses quite nicely, and who I just end up rooting for. - NymeriaWaters

The best redemption arc ever!

I think that Jon Snow is probably one of the most relatable characters in this story. He was never really excepted as a Stark and in the first book tries to make something of himself by joining one of the oldest orders of rangers that protect the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros from the icy horrors of what lies beyond the Wall, where Winter lasts forever. Along the way he must spy on the Wildling army and send information back to the Wall, and I think that is was sad that he had to leave because of him and Ygritte. All in all, I believe that Jon's side of the Song of Ice and Fire series is the most relatable and emotional of all, next to the story of Robb, Talisa, Catelyn, Arya, Sansa, and all of the other Starks.

The Hero of the series, where he always does what's best but not without making some necessary and admirable sacrifice.

I can relate more to Jon than any character in the history!

SCREW YOU OLLY!

She's such a dynamic and underrated villain. Her chapters are AMAZING.

amazing

One of the only decent men in this world of monsters

Honorable even in death

He was a central character. Rip Lord Stark😢

He will break before he bends (is that the translation in English? ). The best description ever. I don't know how to explain that I understand Stannis. - Esteluki

He should be the rightful king and I can actually understand him, I hope he ends up on the Iron Throne.

His internal torment and guilt would be great to read in a point of view, but also translates brilliantly into his actions and the was other characters view him.

Theon: Lord Ramsay is the one Your Grace should fear.
Stannis: I defeated your uncle Victarion and his Iron Fleet off Fair Isle, the first time your father crowned himself. I held Storm's End against the power of the Reach for a year, and took Dragonstone from the Targaryens. I smashed Mance Rayder at the Wall, though he had twenty times my numbers. Tell me, turncloak, what battles has the Bastard of Bolton ever won that I should fear him?
Theon: You do not know him.
Stannis: No more than he knows me.

I wish Martin used her as a point of view character in A Feast for Crows and A Dance with Dragons because she seems like a really interesting character, not to mention we need more interesting female characters.

One of the only characters that made Daenerys' storyline decent

Mr. Badass. I felt instantly attracted to this character. Street intelligence and a philosopher in disguise, got to love him. - Esteluki

God, he is so interesting. Prince of Dorne, sellsword in Essos, studied poisons in the Citadel and nearly(? ) defeated GREGOR CLEGANE! Need I say more?

Personally don't understand how anyone can like her. She was alright in A Game of Thrones but Clash of Kings and onwards I despised her

Maybe not my favorite, but she deserves to be up at the top.

Best character

The beautiful, fierce, red headed Wilding is definetaly my favourite character, even though she doesn't really matter all that much...
