Re: Who's your favourite non-POV character?

Stannis. He's one of the most detailed non-POVs. I feel like I can see what's going on in his mind. And of course he is my King.

Lady Olenna is quite the treat! Reminds me of a lady I know, tells everyone "I'm 95 years old, I'll say anything I please!"

Re: Who's your favourite non-POV character?

I'd say stannis as well, his ever defiant persona is great.
Tho Bronn and his very black humour and the late red viper prince oberyn are right up there too

Guys, I totally forgot about Ed. It's a shame!
By the way, yes I read all the published books, so spoilers can't hurt me Except the new Theon chapter, a hadn't got time.
Thank you for the welcome.

Definitely Tywin, and the guy who always says "Har!" I find Missandei also quite interesting, she is far to politically-savy for such a little girl.

Re: Who's your favourite non-POV character?

Bronn was my favourite for the first 2 books. Then he just got a bit lordly and boring and disappeared.
Dolorous Edd would probably get my vote. Though since ADwD, Moqorro has shown himself to be a bit of a badass. In my mind I always envision him as Michael Clarke Duncan with Samuel L Jackson's voice.

Scary.

Tywin, Griff, Randyll Tarly, Barristan, Doran, Jeor, Kevan... leaders and commanders appeal to me. Heck, I even like Mace, Euron, Stannis, Daven, Roose, Robert, and Walder for being leaders. But not Robb... never Robb. One character I really would have liked to have a good view of was Jon Arryn.

I kinda wish we'd not gotten Cersei's POV. I loved her as a distant trainwreck.

As for the others... Jorah, Joffrey, Baelish, Hodor, and Shitmouth.

Sometimes Martin kills me with the simplicity that he names his characters... "I've got this character who curses incessantly... What should I name him? How 'bout... Shitmouth. Hmmm, what about the character that only says hodor? Ooooh, how about... Hodor?" Satin, Black Bernarr, Brown Bernarr, the Old Bear, Big Liddle, Middle Liddle, Little Liddle, Littlefinger, Nimble Dick, Wench, Kingslayer... He does not often go down the path of The Titan's Bastard or Ser Barristan the Bold. Most fantasy is written about a hero named Kickassidor or Beatdownicus the Brave. If you've never seen the Mystery Science Theatre 3000 video featuring a compilations of The Many Names of David Ryder, then do yourself a favor and watch it immediately.... if not sooner. Big McLargehuge might be my favorite.

Re: Who's your favourite non-POV character?

hodor? HOdor. HoDOR. HODOR. c:

Dolorous Edd. Irate Ser Alliser Thorne. Tormund. Wun-wun the giant. Benjen Stark.

The Late-comers: Donal Noye, The Sword of the Morning Arthur Dayne, Old Bear Jeor Mormont, Jon Arryn, Rodrik Cassel, The Starks: Rickard, Brandon, Lyanna, and Rhaegar Targaryen. I love them dead characters.
