1. Manderly- I like their back story, how they're actually a southron house, but were given refuge in the North by the Starks. And they get props for the Frey pie!

2. Stark- Awesome supernatural abilities!

3. Martell- I sympathise with them the most because I feel whenever there's an uproar in Westeros they end up getting the raw end of the deal. Also, vengeance for Elia!!

4. Tully- I love auburn hair :drool:

5. Targaryen- DRAGONS!

Yeah - I really like your assessment of the Manderlys.

My Top Picks:
  • Stark
  • Tully (for Catelyn and the Blackfish)
  • Stark
  • Manderly (as per Merman of Manderly, see quote above)
  • Stark
  • Blackfrye (even though extinct, for Brynden Rivers/BR)
  • Stark
  • Lannister (for Tyrion, Tommen and Marcella, then as to the others, where would the fun be without them?)
  • Stark
  • Baelish (again, what fun would there be without Littlefinger)
  • Stark
  • Baratheon (for Renly and Stannis)
  • Stark
  • Mormont
  • Stark

Forgot one.  

House Tully 5.5 - less "evil" than 6 and 7, but as incompetent as 5.
