    <p>High Sparrow is the single most boringest character in existence, the sooner the Mountain tears his head off, the better!</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p><span style="font-size:8px;">That might be a slight hyperbole, but it suits my point</span></p>

    <p><span style="font-size:14px;">Little Finger has had his fingers in pretty much every pie in Westoros! </span></p>

    <div>
    <p>Personality? I think he has plenty of it! </p>
    <p>He did start off the whole war.... manipulate armies all over the map, marry people off, plot revenge for slights, basically murder his rivals and he has done more than basically every other character except Daenerys.</p>
    <p>The Hound has done what exactly? Wander around the country pretty aimlessly? Get his ass kicked by a female warrior, then become mates with a monk? All whilst being pretty bland and saying fuck all? Sure he has a personality,and I like his character... but he has done plenty of evil stuff in his time and has accomplished SFA . But hey.. I like most others like his character. I am just trying to fighure out why.. Is it really just as simple as the fact that he uses a sword or axe instead of his brain to get ahead?</p>
    </div>
    </blockquote>
    <p> </p>
    <p>The Hound was just another big Sword wielding muscle head until he got stuck with Ayra which humanised him and made his character heaps more relatable. Only reason he lost to Brienne was cos he was badly wounded from other fights previously. People tend to like strong silent types afterall.....</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>I guess with Little finger he just has the dodgy car salesman demeanour about him. I agree he is a very shrewd one but I have a feeling he isn't to be trusted ( well "trust" being a relative term in Westeros )</p>

    <p>LF is the most brilliant out of the lot of them. He came from nothing, yet armed with only his wits and cunning is now one of the most powerful people in Westeros. He was handed his arse by Ned Stark's older brother when duelling for Cat and that appears to have given him unquenchable ambition.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>But I hate the fucker. For a start he's a pussy who needs others to fight his battles. Tyrion is a dwarf and has seen more action than him. Shit even Dany or translator girl would probably beat him up. He's also a dishonourable, slippery rat of a man who would sell out or kill anyone to go even one stop up the ladder of power. Fair enough, that's the only way a guy like him could get ahead. But it still makes him a horrible human being and completely unlikable.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>BTW, he wants Sansa bad and he wants that Iron Throne. Sansa represents the Cat he could never have. I have been rewatching the first series (which is absolutely brilliant btw) and there is one scene where he's just standing looking at the IT. He wants it bad.</p>

    <p>I would add that I much prefer LF to Ramsay. Ramsay is a horrendous psychopath. I mean the guy fed his baby brother to his dogs. Happy he's gone, but it's just a shame they didn't do the Reek treatment on him.</p>

    <p>Little finger has a lot of similarities to Varys imo - except he's got much more ambition to claw his way up. But not to the very top because he knows how dodgy that seat/throne is. Better to be influencing things from a slight distance and keeping your options open. I think we saw a lot of LF's personality early on when he was having his status thrown in his face etc...  </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Frey and the High Sparrow to get their beans I reckon, but I wonder if the hound will somehow make it to the Red Keep if things go up in flames? He's 'sided' (barely tolerating) the Fire god followers, plus his aversion to fire and potential clash with his monster bro could make for a cool story arc.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>So we are going to have a few major armies coming together as we lead into the end?</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Freys + King's army (Lannisters, Highgarden + odds and sods)</p>
    <p>High Sparrows faith militant</p>
    <p>White walkers</p>
    <p>Jon Snow/Sansa/LF mash up</p>
    <p>Dany's unsullied, Dragons, Dothraki + odds and sods from the cities she's captured. Plus the Iron born</p>
    <p>Whatever the Dorne bitches can scrape together</p>
    <p>Remainder of the Iron born force</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>anyone else as a major force who isn't aligned to one of the above?</p>

    <p>Rancid raises an interesting point about LF, in a death match between him, Varys and Tyrion I'd bet my money on the little man being the only one to survive every single time.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Speaking of fighting what's the deal with the Mountain ? is he deliberately being silent or has whatever was left of him completely gone ? Why is he serving Cercei ? since she brought him back from the brink of death is he basically the Darth Vader to her Emperor ?</p>

    <p>As mentioned, I've been rewatching the first series and it is superb. They made some weird changes from the books, but otherwise it is an amazing adaptation. The sad thing is that alot of the really cool characters (at least IMHO) are all dead. I'm talking Ned, Robert, Robb, Greatjohn Umber, Pappa Mormont, shit even Theon with cock was pretty tough. Robb in particular shits me. He had a great story. Young kid thrust into power because his dad is betrayed and executed. He's underestimated by everyone, but then turns out to be a military genius and arsefucks the Lannisters. But then Theon betrays him, his own Bannerman Bolton royally farks him over, and then he's murdered in cold blood at his uncle's wedding. That really sucks.</p>

    <p>I might have to do the same actually. Add Tywin to the list of cool dead characters although I think he only appears early in season 2 ? I felt bad for him having three kids like he did, a couple of whom spawned some fucken abominations ( one in particular )</p>

    Tywin comes in late season 1, first scene he did he's slicing open that stag.<br>
    Robb's downfall was he didn't listen to those around him (even Roose said that) and he let his cock think for him.<br>
    Made a couple of major blunders, executed Karstark Snr, then hooked up with Talsa rather then go through with the Frey marriage.

    Yeah forgot Tywin. He was an old hard ass.<br><br>
    Yeah Robb did some stupid shit. What I didn't like with the series was that he genuinely followed his cock. In the book he was having his wounds tended by a girl and one thing led to another. He married her to protect her honour when he could easily have told her to jump. That's the cruel reality of the story. Anyone with honour gets killed. They try and say Dany has honour, but she has no problem inflicting a horde of Mongols on her beloved subjects.
