Your Mental Image of ASOIAF Characters


Recommended Posts

Everyone builds up a mental image of character when you read about them. But everyone sees things differently. Some forum members haven't watched the show, such as myself, while others haven't delved into the books. This isn't meant to be a question of superiority (I'm better than all of you anyway, so there'd be no competition), but a chance to exchange perspectives.

Here are the rules:

  • Respond to the previous poster's requested character with a link to the image of what you see them as.
  • Name the next character.
  • Note: Any and all characters are allowed, including historical figures or creatures. You're also allowed to use the actors from the show, but only link them if you truly see their respective characters as that.

First up, Robert Baratheon.

Eversince I saw someone fancast David O'Hara as Randyll, I've been imagining him in the role.


Someone who's also had this idea has made this: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Btd_ymICAAAYpuG.jpg:large


but the expression on his face here, even though he's in modern clothes, is perfect for Randyll Tarly:

Next: Arya Stark

Yes David O'Hara has the right look in that second photo! You beat me to Randyll, I was going to say, people keep casting Mel Gibson as Randyll when he comes up, and I think it suits his kind of middle aged neither handsome or ugly appearance plus the somewhat unpleasant nutty qualities that have damaged his career. So can I please put this photo in for Randyl too?

and for Arya, I don't know who this ex child actor is, but she had the right look when she was young

That's Isabelle Fuhrmann. She's been excellent in playing scary, homicidal little girls/teenagers. Great choice.

You forgot to ask the next character.
