HBO's Game of Thrones. [No Book Spoilers]

[Overdriven]

Well, Tywin was born as the head of a family which literally sits on a mountain of gold, surely that starting advantage gets you in a rather easy position to navigate your way to power. The real bawses are Varys and Pinky who were born with nothing.

Anyone else finding the Hound pretty much the most intriguing character? I still haven't figured out what his deal is. Sometimes you see him comitting extremely cruel acts, only to then be a chivalrous bastard with a sense of righteousness. Pledged himself to the Lannisters, obedient as a dog to Joffrey, and then he gives a spot on analysis of the hypocrisy of knighthood. Dunno if it is bad writing but his character is surprising me all the time. I am curious what role he is going to play in the big picture, especially since Beric said that he should be left alive as apparently the god of light has a purpose for him.

Well his father practically ruined the Lannisters. The Lannisters standing in the Kingdom now is pretty much entirely down to Tywin.

Hound is a wonderful character.

Jofrey is a psycopath, he was born that way. Upbringing is prety irrelevant at this level.

I don't think you understand much about psychology. Things like this is still being debated by professionals. Most mental illnesses seem to have a high correlation to things like childhood abuse or other bad parenting/environmental factors.

He butchered a preagnant cat in childhood.

He was pretty much ignored from the day he was born by his father. He's a product of incest. Brought up in political mess of a court. Pampered as the first born heir ect ect. No doubt there is some level of inherent fuckedupness, but psychology plays a huge part. Studied child development in psychology and you'd be amazed what a little bit of neglect ect as a child can do to someone.

the hound is a great character, his motivations are very familiar and can be seen in many interesting people throughout history.

One of my favourite characters. His special relationship to Sansa is great in the Books and his torn character development is one of the best I've ever read. And they found a very fitting actor for his role in the show, but as with the whole thing there is of course less depth to it.
