Based on the massive expansion of POV characters, this is becomming and more and more difficult list to write.  Like originally I was going to throw Barristan and Asha but NOO, they have POVs now.  So they're out, damn.  Anyway:

1. Jorah Mormont
2. Bronn
3. Sander Clegane
4. Stannis Baratheon
5. Varys
6. Mance Rayder
7. Oberyn Martell
8. Margery Tyrell
9. Strong Belwas
10. Ser Pounce and Lady Whiskers

[W.A.Wilson]

In no order...

Doran Martell
Ser Loras Tyrell
Tywin Lannister
Roose Bolton (favorite might not be the word... 'most fascinated by' might be better)
Stannis Baratheon
Sandor Clegane
Ser Arthur Dayne
Oberyn Martell
Littlefinger
Olenna Tyrell

Not order
-Mance Rayder
-Val
-Dolorous Edd
-Stannis Baratheon
-Gendry
-Podrick Payne
-Meera Reed
-Bloodraven
-Black Fish
-Robb Stark

[Lord Steward]

This is incredibly difficult! There are so many incredibly strong non-POV characters, it's really hard to narrow it down to 10. but here goes, in a vague attempt at an order:

1. Qhorin Halfhand - a true hero, so readily prepared to die to save his brothers.
2. Edd Tollett - never fails to make us laugh, no matter how dire things get.
3. Val - elegant, strong, intelligent and understanding.
4. Tormund Giantsbane - down to earth and surprisingly friendly for a wildling.
5. Doran Martell - he has the patience of a saint.
6. Tywin Lannister - never makes rash decisions or lets his emotions get the better of him.
7. Jeor Mormont - a strong leader, respected by his men.
8. Aemon Targaryen - incredibly wise and kind, with evidently not a selfish bone in his body.
9. Missandei - wise beyond her years and totally loyal to her queen.
10. Robb Stark - of all the kings, he was the only one fighting for the right reasons.

Narrowly missed:
Sandor Clegane
Bronn
Varys
Olenna Tyrell
Syrio Forel
