[Jon's Queen Consort]

Everyone knows that badboys are much more interesting than the good guys an if you are honest with yourselves you must admit that you like them too.
So, state your loyalty to your favorite badboy and the awsome things that he has done.

My fav badboys are Euron, Petyr,Ramsay, Varys and Tywin

[Mr Motte]

Petyr Baelish- my favorite character. Destroys live and lands like its nothing. Not respectable per se, but definitely interesting

[StarkWhite]

Jamie. I hated him of course in the first part of the series but he's great, even short a hand (or up one golden one). I love his wit and he's a badass, even if he's banging his sister. I can't wait till he knocks up Brienne.

[booknerd2]

Littlefinger and Viserys are love to hate. Although LF is a rebel with a cause, and Viserys is a whining brat.

Ok, take out Viserys from badboy to big baby.

Huge


I thought that nowadays Jamie is a good guy, if he was a bad one he would be in my list too.

[Scipio Africanus]

Baelish, Varys and Cercei are my favs. Can't wait to read what Baelish and Varys are up to next. Cercei's POVs are a joy to read, she's so clueless yet she thinks she's next best thing since sliced bread, great stuff.

Tywin, Jaime, all the Greyjoys and that Darkstar fellow...overrated. Way too high an opinion of themselves from what I've read.

Tywin overrated? And Jaime and Euron too?

Darkstar is just a jealous, insane puppet.

I agree with Jon's Queen Consort that Jaime isn't really a bad guy anymore, but since there are a lot of posters who disagree, he's at the top of my list.

Roose Bolton, indisputably 'bad'. He had me at 'Jaime Lannister sends his regards'.

[Captain Victarion Greyjoy]

Victarion - The dude is a beast ... real bad motherfucker


Bronn - GRR Martin favorite char , nothing bad happens to him...from a loser sellsword he becomes a lord in just 5 books

Bloodraven-though I don't think he's really bad, just...misunderstood.

Jaime for sure.

[vleeter]

Mance is pretty BA. He's very skilled with a blade, was ballsy enough to show up at Robert's feast in Winterfell, and he's got a beard.

[Jolene Brown]

I don't think of Jaime as a bad guy either.  I don't know what Theon is, he's sort of like the walking dead more than anything else, so I don't think of him as a bad guy either, per se.

For me, it's Roose all the way, and Cercei is a bit of a guilty pleasure.  Um, also, I have to admit to sort of liking Tywin too.  But the vindictively cruel for the pure joy of it characters like Ramsay, Euron, Victarion, Gregor, all the Bloody Mummers and so forth just have no appeal whatsoever for me, even as a person who has always liked the villains best, for the most part.  I like my villains damaged and introspective, not sociopathical and vicious.

[Manfryd Lothston]

QYBURN!

Necromancy FTW!!

Also:

1. The Addams Lothston Family: Mad Danelle, Lucas the Pander, Manfryd o'the Black Hood (mine own namesake!), Manfred the Betrayer - "None since has dared to show that bat, black as the deeds of them that bore it"!

2. Biter and Rorge! These two were hilarious, with Shagwell they were like a comic trio.

3. The Smiling Knight! A deadly mix of chivalry and madness, with a winning smile!

My pet crackpot is that Biter is an offspring of the cannibalistic Lothstons, and the Smiling Knight was also a Lothston! Imagine him with Biter's smile... you get the idea!

4. The Mountain that Rides! He lived cool, kicked Dorne ass, and came back from the grave as the ultimate undead Kingsguard Knight!

5. The thlobbering thellthword from acrothth the thea, theeking thappireth! I mean, even Gregor was amused by his antics, and he's not an easy man to please.

6. Faceless Men/Servants of the Great Other: a cult of death worshipping assassins who possibly caused the Doom of Valyria and are probably working to eliminate the Azor Ahai so that darkness could enshroud all existence and everyone receives the sweet gift of death. Valar Morghulis!

Baelish and Varys.

Given where I have worked over many years, and my experience of people in those organisations, I have to say I have always loved those two. The quiet 'men who know too much' - they cannot be got rid of without all sorts of unpleasantness, because they have their fingers in all the financial pies and know where all the bodies are buried (especially as they have buried a few themselves!)

I like Roose as a character. Very interesting, he's so cold and calculated, far more than the other bad guys and he has some funny moments. Like when Arya asks him a question and he "stared at her with an expression as if his supper had just spoken to him". The fact that he lowers him voice so everyone must strain to hear him is bad ass as well. Still, I hope Stannish crushes his army.

[OscLove]

Joffrey! I've always loved Joffrey.His ill-considered being amused through the three first book.  I also like Varys a lot, but I strangely find it difficult to call him a bad guy.

Varys is not a bad guy, at least as far as we can judge so far. He does things for the good of the realm, and he even has a measure of compassion, plus a few obviously positive acts (such as saving little Aegon - if that was indeed what has happened).

[lilenadheas]

Bloodraven is my weakness.

No - HE SAYS he does things for the good of the realm.   Would you trust the man in any way?  I wouldn't
