Which non-pov do you like the best?

Simple question.

Mine would be the Red Viper. He is everything that I want to be. Very sure in his abilities, master of posions, very out spoken, and he is the type of person to kill now and ask questions later. He spiced things up in Kings Landing and made the ending of A Storm of Swords a page turner for me.

Without doubt Littlefinger, IMHO the second or third most interesting character in the entire series.

A wonderful role model.

I'm with Ainulindale on this one... Littlefinger... though I am intrigued also by Jorah, Mance, Asha, Kevan, and Olenna.

Same here.

He could have a nice big side-story.(as well as many others actually...)
How he turned into King-beyond-the-Wall, his life at the Night's Watch, etc, etc...

By the way, does it sat somewhere which was his role at the Night's Watch?
Stable boy perhaps?

The Hound. Gruff but loveable.

Well sure, why not. I'd would think that would add a certain "don't mess with me" attidude. Mind you when I was little I was picked on a regular bases due to the fact my parents were immagrants to the United States. So mater of poisons would have shut a few mouths up when I was younger.

Re: Which non-pov do you like the best?

Remind me never to eat at your place, Sword....

So many, I don't think I can chose just one. The Halfhand, Pyp and Grenn, Dolorous Edd, Jeor Mormont, Maester Aemon, Dacey Mormont, the Umbers Small and Great, Garlan Tyrell, Ser Rodrik and Jory, the Blackfish, Ser Barristan, the Hound... Shall I go on? The Reeds are probably close to the top, though, if I were pressed to name one (well, two...).

Re: Which non-pov do you like the best?

It's gotta be Hodor! I reckon he's got a rain man thing going on there. I seriously think that dudes brain works on a different level to everyone elses. Soon as they find out he'll work out some formua for destroying the other's, and be crowned king as a reward. maybe

/me tries to invisage how knowing the number of toothpicks in a box will save the seven kingdoms



On a more serious note, I'd rather not have Littlefingers POV tbh, at least not until the very end. I like the way you never know what he's thinking, planning. Being in the dark about his motives and actions is what makes him so intriguing.
