I've never known anyone watch Richard III and not to be rooting for the titular character. I think that D&D’s Richard III was Stannis (And just one of four characters that GRRM based off of Richard III; the others were Tyrion, Ned Stark, and Theon Greyjoy). He was the one they wanted as the villain, but I rooted for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin said of Stannis "despite everything, he is a righteous man" which Tyrion is not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
