Alexander Leonard Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 I think so given the way he treated the dusky woman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euron III Greyjoy Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Its difficult to say. Most people in ASOIAF are fucked up in some way, the Iron Islanders more than most. I definitely think Euron is a psychopath though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sigella Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 No. He connects her with Euron so the way he treats her is the way he'd want to treat Euron. Psychopaths doesn't cry whilst honour-killing their wives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The over-the-top villany of Euron and Ramsay is one of my few issues with the series. It seems like GRRM felt the need to one up Joffrey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Book Euron is actually in my top 5 favourite character list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foot_Of_The_King Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 No, he’s just super Ironborn. 45 minutes ago, King Aegon I Targaryen said: I'm not that bothered about it. Book Euron is actually in my top 5 favourite character list. I love the character too. One aspect of Euron that I think doesn’t get enough attention is the fact that he’s tripping balls all the time. I’ve always wondered how psychedelic drugs would affect an already “evil” mind. All of his grandiose ideas are easier to understand in this light.

Dofs Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Just because someone does something awful, it doesn't mean he is a psychopath. Victarion is simply a thick-headed man that was raised in an extremely toxic culture. And that's all there is to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoodedCrow Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Maybe. Trump is a psychopath. That is obvious. Regard him and take notes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcelowww Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 No. He's just a brute. Euron, Ramsay and Roose are the psychopaths of ASOIAF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curled Finger Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Nah, Vic isn't written to be frightening, bewildering perhaps, but not scary. He's just a big old brute, as noted above. He's got a lot of less than desirable qualities, but he's also got some very desirable in world qualities, too. Women are not important to the Iron Born. Dusky Gal is a bed slave. She's nothing to Victarion. It makes him a run of the mill very common jerk, not a nut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psychopaths doesn't cry whilst honour-killing their wives. This sounds about right. He comes from a culture of violence. It doesn't mean he's innocent. It also doesn't mean he doesn't deserve death. It does mean he doesn't get to use the insanity plea for his actions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about killing his wife because his brother fucked her, or wearing full plate armor on a ship because he didn't fear drowning, simply the number of people he killed.

The Commentator Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Yes but there are characters that are easily just as messed up. Like Arya and Ramsay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtherFromAnotherMother Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Quote Do you think Victarion Greyjoy is a psycopath? This would depend on your operational definition of 'psycopath'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igziabeher Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 I think he could be viewed as somewhat psychopathic, but not a sociopath like Euron is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
