Defeatarion Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Who's your favorite female character & why? It can be a minor or major character. I was just wondering, I expect most to say Dany but I'm interested to see what you all say. My vote goes to Arianne, I always enjoyed her chapters. #2 may be Cersei, she's just too fun to hate/ read about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matoro Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Meera Reed is the best. I probably love her because of her actor in the show because she is badass and so loyal and sincere towards Bran and Jojen and has a bit of iron will of Stannis in her too.

Lady Blizzardborn Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 How am I supposed to choose? Today it's a tie between Arya and Daenerys, I guess. Arianne is a close second/third. I also really like Margaery, though I'm not sure why. And her grandmother is a hoot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mladen Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 I generally have high esteem for ASOIAF female characters. Most of people around here know that I am Sansa champion, but there are many other female character I enjoy reading: Arya, Cat, Asha, Arianne, Ellaria, Wyla Manderly, Mormont women Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LyrnaSnowBunnyAvenger Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 I think it depends some on the book. I used to love Dany chapters in the beginning and now I dread them, vice versa with Sansa chapters. Some of my favorites are Arya, Asha, Osha, Wyla, Arianne, Olenna, Marg, Brienne, all of the Mormonts. I never liked Cat much, but realize she gets unjustly blamed for a lot to the point of hysteria on some people's behalf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Good Guy Garlan Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Arya Stark The other girls in my top 10 are: CerseiAshaMargaerySansa I also love Olenna, Melisandre, Shireen, Brienne, Myrcella, Wylla Manderly, Lady Dustin, Missandei, etc, there's too many of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oberyn2cool4Westeros Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Melisandre. Love the mystery and uncertainty surrounding her and she's such a great troll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Pearce Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 I love reading Cersei's chapter - reading her fall from grace is fun But my favourite has to be Olenna. Witty and intelligent. And she kills joffrey so thats a bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lifefullofwords Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 It's hard to pick just one but probably Brienne. I like Dani, Arya, Asha, and Sansa almost as much though. Mel is fascinating but I can't say she's too much of an extremist to be a favorite. Some of the most interesting characters in ASoIaF are not at all likable.

Jacob Feybrad Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 I sympathize greatly with Arianne. She has the Potential to become a great Player in the Future, while she also had a very legitimate Reasons and Fears, that have driven her - not telling her about his Plans for her was Doran's greatest Misstep for now. Coupled with the Fact that we have seen her Viewpoint, she outshines even Margaery and appears to be the most proactive (future?) female player in the Game of Thrones, that is actually capable of playing reasonably (unlike Cersei for Example). The Fact that she still has to learn makes her even more sympathetic, because as everyone can see, she has great potential as well as a great Example to look up to in her Father. Originally I would have named someone from the more action-oriented flock of female Characters (Asha, the older Sandsnakes, Arya or Brienne...) but they turn up in larger Numbers than I find appropriate for the Setting, especially since their Share among the more prominent Characters seems confusingly high, while the great political Players are still very much male-dominated. Thus, I favor the Females who take Part in the literal Game of Thrones rather than Swordplay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chebyshov Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Sansa. She is a remarkably compassionate person despite all the horror she's been through, and in a decent position to be the best player. Arianne is a close second...she's a complete ENFP and it's hilarious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight of the Amused Tree Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Arya, Asha, The Ghost of High Heart, Meera, the Mormont women, Old Nan, Olenna Tyrell, Sansa (who is growing on me), Willa Manderly and Val. There are some Essosi women too. Forgot Alleria. This why I hate to do the lists- always leave people out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reek Havoc Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Arya is my absolute favorite for her determination, not being afraid to get her hands dirty, and her absolute resolve to be true to herself despite her insecurities regarding certain family members' opinions of her. Honorable mentions to:Olenna for being the only female thus far in the series to prove that woman can have a sense of humor.Brienne... her sense of honor rivals that of Ned Stark.Cersei for being such a bitch. I genuinely love to hate her. She's a very complex character that's easy to sympathize and despise at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
