Re: Favorite non-main character?

Dolorous Edd, Renly, Littlefinger, Walder, Vargo, Podrick, Tywin, Janos, Doran, Jorah, and Aemon all are well written characters. They are not fully fleshed out and their appearances and comments serve to propel one aspect of the story. But they provide either some very memorable comments or needed backdrop and depth.

I forget the name of the person who fought The Mountain with a spear, but he rocked the house like none other.

Re: Favorite non-main character?

The Hound and Varys are my favorite characters to like. Tywin and Littlefinger I loved to hate.

Re: Favorite non-main character?

The old women are the best. Old Nan and the Queen of Thorns. I also enjoyed Syrio Forel. I had high hopes for Arya becoming a water dancer, but I suppose it is not to be.

Re: Favorite non-main character?

Hi all, first post

It's ironic that I would choose the name The Imp and then mention Shae, whoappears to be missing from all of the above posts. Not a great character, but certainly interesting. My apologies if she was already mentioned.

Re: Favorite non-main character?

So if it came to a stick war between Barristan and Syrio, who'd win?

Well, Syrio appears to have lost to that Maryn (was that his name?) Trant guy pretty quickly, and the Titan's Bastard was supposedly an accomplished fighter and Barristan whooped him.

Re: Favorite non-main character?

It's Ser Meryn, but there is a theory that Syrio in effect survived that fight and is in hiding somewhere.

Yeah I think he did too, but Martin does have a knack for killing off cool characters, then again he often makes them unexpectedly survive too.

Re: Favorite non-main character?

We didn't actually read that Syrio was killed, it just read hat he was about to be (from what I remember). I think he's still around and I think he probably has a part to play in unfolding events. I think there is more to him than he was telling
