Does he have anything against him? Well as Sedai demonstrated, some people consider being a Stark bad enough in and of itself, but I'm not that extreme.

He's the 'worst' Stark I could find since he massacred Andal villages in Essos, who likely weren't part of the Andals attacking the North, in retaliation for the attacks on the North.

I mean I don't mind judging characters with modern morals in terms of analysis as long as it is consistent for all characters. You see people judging characters they don't like using modern standards but judge their favourites with In-Universe morals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

House Targaryen- while we can debate their history since Aegon’s Conquest, they were a part of the Valyrian Freehold upper class. Meaning they were almost certainly complicit in every atrocity they committed. From blood magic, slavery, genocide, and were eugenicists. 2. House Hoare- called the “Black-line” or “Black Blood” they are everything wrong with Ironborn culture 3. House Greyjoy/Drumm/Any Iron Islands family of Kings- simply put, they were like the Hoares but less successful. 4. House Bolton- Literally skinning people alive and wearing their skin. What else needs be said 5. House Yronwood- Known for their cruelty and how they torture people. I would put House Stark at the top of any list of "Most Evil Families" and "Most Vile Familes." The Starks slaughtered families during their war for control of the north. They were guilty of mass human sacrifices to fertilize the Weirwood trees. They were murdering the Children of the Forest and taking their lands. I think we will soon learn that Brandon the Builder was actually an evil creature. The Starks commit the most heinous form of slavery, skinchanging. Now Bran has the greensight and it will only be a matter of time before he uses that power for evil. House Greyjoy would come next but only because House Hoare is gone. The Baratheons were pains in the asses. The Manderlys are cannibals. The Lannisters swindled their way into Casterly. Most Evil Families 1. House Stark 2. House Greyjoy 3. House Baratheon 4. House Manderly 5.

According to this guy, surely due to Theon having been a ward of the Starks and Asha having wanted to ally with northmen as part of her plans.

The Duck and the Field Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 (edited) For the Lannisters, I guess it should be taken into account that they were kings for thousands of years before before we met the latest generation. Then again, they were founded by Lann the Clever, an infamous real estate thief. Edited June 27 by The Duck and the Field Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are somewhat right about Dany (she brought the dragons back to life, liberated slaves and is probably Azor Ahai), but you might be a Targaryen fangirl based on the rest? Bran Stark will be King of Westeros by the end of the series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way Bran becomes king is if the people are all dead and the wights and the Others control Westeros. It can happen. The Others will reward him for exterminating the humans.
