AngrySoviet Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 For me personally the best villain has to be Tywin Lannister, hands down. He's incredibly intelligent, a ruthless, cunning mastermind, and (I think) the most powerful and rich Lord in Westeros. He just generally exudes an aura of invincibility. I even think that he never gets defeated once in any of the books.And I really loved his death scene. I think GRRM tried to show that no matter how powerful you are, politically, socially, or intellectualy, a crossbow bolt in your happy place will kill you as easy as it kills a peasant. It's also ironic that someone who dressed up so elegenatly and ostentatiously in life dies in a pool of his own shit. Roose Bolton is also a decent bad guy, what with his pale appearance, soft voice, the moniker "leech lord" and being lord of a place called "the Dreadfort" he just made me think of some undead lich king, or a necromancer.

Solaris Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Littlefinger is my fav villian.Slippery and cunning. His ability to manipulate people and situations to serve his goals without any one noticing is fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEvilKing Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 I love the villains in this series! I think I prefer reading about them over the heroes to be honest. Here's my top 10:1. Littlefinger2. Ramsay Bolton3. King Joffrey the Valiant4. Roose Bolton5. Tywin Lannister6. Euron Crow's Eye7. Cersei Lannister8. Lord Walder Frey9. Ser Gregor Clegane10. Viserys TargaryenNotice how there's nobody from Essos on my list even though everyone there is a total dick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catastrophe Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Varys and Littlefinger. Pretty much everything that happens in the series was caused by one of them, so they have my thanks for that. :)I'm also partial to Euron, even though we don't know much about him yet. He combines the brutality of monsters like Gregor and Ramsay with the cunning, charisma, and foresight of a master manipulator. All in all, he's the exact kind of villain I love to hate.

Winter's Lady Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Dany. :fencing:Have at me! :cheers:Well, I don't see her as the villain NOW, but I'm sure she will become one in the bext books. If she comes to Westeros to claim the throne, she will make the situation even worse, taking more focus away from the real enemy - the Others.But for now, Littlefinger has to be the most cunning, evil, scheming thing walking on two legs, so he gets my vote.

Sidonie Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Ramsay Bolton gets my vote. He's really just twisted psychologically.My LEAST favorite villain is Littlefinger. I hate his kind of sneaky, two-faced villainy. His power seems to derive just from his ability to scam people, and that's all. I mean, it's just so commonplace, lol.

King_Roose_I Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Favourite villains:1 Mel. She's just great.2 Roose Bolton, of course, even though he isn't a fully developed character rather than a plot device so far ...3 Arya.4 Littlefinger, one of the few character-driven villains out there ...

assjfjgjsgjljljglgjfjsduar Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 The Boltons. So terrifying, for different reasons.And if/when Dany jumps off the Targ deep end and starts burning people indiscriminately, I'll get a case of the big warm fuzzies.

Val the Wildling Princess Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 I like the mystery that surrounds Euron Greyjoy, I can't wait to know what's on his mind, I have the feeling that he is worse than Ramsay and Gregor together :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckwheat Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Littlefinger is my fav villian.Slippery and cunning.

Goreshank Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 I love to hate Cersei Lannister. She is very cunning and manipulative, but she is totally clueless at the same time. She hates King Robert for how he treated her (drunkenly trying to claim his kingly rights) so I find it twistedly ironic when she started to possess some of the very traits that she hated Robert for. I would go as far as saying she is losing her mind. She is convinced Tyrion is behind Joffery's death and thinks he is lurking under every rock in King's Landing. Her total disregard for anyone other than herself or her children makes my skin crawl. I feel bad for Tommen and his whipping boy. She claims to love Jaime but clearly only uses him for her own ends. I am eager to see what her trial will bring (probably more death). I will be relieved when someone finally someone puts her down or better yet she is eaten by Drogon.

Petyr Middlefinger Baelish Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Roose Bolton is a lot funnier than I expected in ADWD, in a mean kind of way.The only reason I didn't say Littlefinger is because I don't consider him a villain.

Ser Ilyn's Tongue Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Roose is also my favourite villain. He's just so at ease and cool with with treachery, murder and general badness. And he has that line at the RW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Know Face Man Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Arya is my fav, she went from being Ned Starks lil girl to a Faceless Man. I mean come on she can warg into a cat and wolf. She rode with the Hound, and killed more people at her age then anyone else we know of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
