James Steller Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 I'm surprised that Tywin Lannister didn't make your list, given how large of a role he played in the Starks' demise at the Twins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Blizzardborn Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 I don't like any of them but Roose at least is intelligent and good at strategy. I can respect that about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not really a true enemy of House Stark. If Robb had stayed in Winterfell, Tywin never would have bothered him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very good. Please do continue to give ideas. I only meant to get the conversation started. My list was not intended to limit your choices. Okay.

bilplat Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Mad Aerys is my favorite Stark enemy. So wise. So courageous. Also Dany. Doesn't she think of Ned as one of the Userper's dogs? She's kind of a symbolic enemy too, with her house having connections to fire and Stark having connections to winter and ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you being serious there? Because Aerys was definitely not wise. And he wasn't an "enemy" of House Stark. He didn't do anything to them until Brandon came to his house shouting treason. Granted he overdid his response, and then asked for Ned's head, but he was insane. Dany's not a real enemy either. Symbolically maybe but not in any other sense.

bilplat Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Yeah totally kidding about Aerys, but the thread is about your favorite enemy, so I had to try to make him look good lol. and Dany not being a real enemy? Between friend and enemy, I think Dany would choose enemy for the right hand man of Rhaegar's killer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between friend and enemy, I think Dany would choose enemy for the right hand man of Rhaegar's killer Dany only feels remotely negatively about Ned, not the whole house. It's not like the Bolton/Stark thing which has a history. When she gets to Westeros and finds out he's dead and his family scattered, I doubt she's going to go hunt the rest of them down. And Dany only knows what Viserys told her, which she's learning wasn't all correct. Add Tyrion to the mix and she may learn that even Ned wasn't that bad. Tywin and Jaime she'll continue to hate though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curled Finger Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Straight 50/50 toss up between Roose & Cersei. Roose is one of the creepiest characters I've ever read. Cersei is possibly the finest mad character I've ever read. Between them House Stark had very little hope of surviving. Is there anything better than reading Cersei's dismissals and paranoia? Or Roose's utterly honest wickedness? They are villains worthy of the Stark's honorable or higher moral characters. In retrospect it would take a mad queen and backstabbing neighbor to cause the fall of the good House Stark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps the highlight of the series. Though to be perfectly honest that would be way more fun to witness visually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
