Darth Visenya Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 In my opinion he was, he ruled over a peaceful and prosperous Westeros for a good deal of his reign.He was also right to execute the Starks for threatening the Crown Princes life, although asking for Ned and Roberts heads was perhaps taking it a little too far.The 7 Kingdoms was certainly in far better shape at the end of his Reign than it was at the end of the drunken,tourney holding oaf that suceeded hims Reign.

The Dornishman's Wife Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 If you want to parody Neffy, I think you need to throw a few more insults in against the uneducated mob who dares to disagree with you. Although I counsel against it unless you share his mod immunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shockwave Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 during the good part of his reign he had a good hand, then came the jalousy of Tywin being more popular then him, then came Duskendale which led to his full descend in madness. He had a good Hand/Council to keep the realm running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consigliere Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Aerys I Targaryen was good mostly because he had BR as his Hand. Aeys II is the male version of Cersei. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howling Mad Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Every description provided of Aerys in the books is that he was bat shit crazy. How can you reconcile that with him being a good ruler? A good ruler doesn't incite a rebellion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Visenya Posted August 18, 2013 Author Share Posted August 18, 2013 Guys can we keep this serious, I would actually like to discuss his good merits as a King rather than assume I'm joking, which I'm not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willard/Mitt Lannister Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 I think Aerys II was a real visionary.1. He was a true feminist by supporting the execution of known womanizer Brandon Stark. 2. He let his son have a second marriage for love.3. He exemplified anti-racist attitudes by allowing Dornishmen to die for him as equally as Andals. 4. He fought against monogamist patriarchy by trying to do Tywin's wife. 5. He was a patron of the sciences. Especially chemistry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Visenya Posted August 18, 2013 Author Share Posted August 18, 2013 He had reason to be paranoid though, his son was plotting to take the Crown and Tywin was capable and ambitious so you can see where he got those ideas from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIK Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 It was Tywin as Hand who ruled in all but name, Aerys blundered in everything he possibly could. The only good thing mentioned about him was that his "reign started promisingly" and even that not in detail. Oh first post :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
