Otatop1000 Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Squire Dalbridge, Half-hand sends him to die against the Wildlings. He just nods turns and leaves. Left me in awe. Really love all the Shadow Tower brothers. But Squire Dalbridge is the beat of em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bard of Banefort Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Podrick Payne. We really don’t talk enough about how a ten year old was able to kill a kingsguard knight in the middle of a battle. sifth 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stabbing and throwing a grown man in armor takes a hell of a lot of strength. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord of Raventree Hall Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 I was thinking on this one for awhile, but decided to say it : Loras Tyrell. I think the fandom actually...doesn't view him as a badass (maybe I'm wrong though). I think the abomination plays into this (Loras is very pouty in the show). However, in the books, he is..kind of what he appears to be. He is kind to most others, he is mostly chivalrous (except when he murdered his sworn brothers after Renly's death), and I think he honestly tries to be the best person he can be (unlike a lot of our main characters). He seems loyal to his friends and family, and he doesn't really seem to have any secret motives or hangups. I think people notice Garlan (and they should) but kind of skip over that Loras...isn't that different from Garlan (perhaps a bit quieter and a bit more cocky about his prowess).

Northern Sword Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 I'll throw out Wyman Manderly as a bad ass. This guy went into Winterfell knowing he wont make it out, but he DGAF. he is taking enemies with him. And an honourable mention of his grand daughter Wylla. F those Freys.

Alester Florent Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 2 hours ago, Arthur Peres said: Lol, no. He killed his sworn brothers in a hissy fit. He along with his family go crawling back to Joffrey a king they revolted against. He is happy to bad mounth Brienne for no reason, and dumb enough to keep blaming her for Renly's death when she loved him, and had nothing to gain by doing the deed. When he took command of the Siege of Dragon Stone even his own men were pissed at him for his rash actions. Everyone thinks Brienne killed Renly. And Loras's sworn brothers abetted her escape, becoming accessories after the fact. Loras does eventually see reason but I don't really blame him for reacting the way he does. Dragonstone could be argued as a strategic masterstroke by Loras, freeing up the Reach forces to return to their own territories while causing the majority of the casualties to fall on the Westermen, thereby increasing the Tyrells' power relative to the Throne. Whether and to what extent Aurane's account of what happened is accurate is of course another matter. Lord of Raventree Hall 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otatop1000 Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 We have yet to have first hand account of the Siege of Dragonstone. I’m not convinced it had all occurred the way we’ve been told. In my mind the westerman led a weak assault and allowed a great knight to shoulder the brunt of the damage and only after Loras secured the victory do the Kingslanding forces push forward. Allowing Ser Loras to be bludgeoned and burned with boiling oil. ”Dying is not DEAD!” - Margaery Tyrell Lord of Raventree Hall 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingAerys_II Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Book Ser Loras is totally different and so it is Renly, the show characters are ridiculous, however Garlan Tyrell, Yohn Royce are among the most skilled warriors, Smalljon was a beast too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ran Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Folks, I've deleted a number of posts. Keep it polite or I'll start banning people. I'm not sure I'd call Loras underrated within Westeros -- he's considered a great knight, after all. George himself listed him as one of the top warriors in the series, so his status seems unquestioned. It certainly is true that there are people who are quick to dismiss him, usually with poor reasoning, IMO, but they're going against the author and the story in that case.

KingAerys_II Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) Aegon the Uncrowned. But I think the most underestimated Queens are Rhaena Targaryen and Alyssa Velaryon, Rhaena suffered the abuse of her uncle, then, she stole Blackfyre and escaped from him with Dreamfyre and her daughter, meanwhile Alyssa married Lord Baratheon and gained the support of the major houses Edited October 29, 2023 by KingAerys_II Northern Sword and Aldarion 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I thought this topic was meant to be....in the fandom's opinion, not in Westerosi's opinion. Hmm, if it is Westerosi opinion, then Brienne of Tarth. She is constantly underrated by everyone throughout the books. Ser Arthurs Dawn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingAerys_II Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Lord Kevan and Daven. Lord Kevan proved to be a great Hand without using Tywin brutality, that's why Varys killed him. I like Daven and Jaime considers him to have the aspect of a lion thanks to the beard and long hair, his dialogues are very entertaining Northern Sword 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
