All of the Mad Characters in Game of Thrones 

@Florys the Fox 01 broken? From her miscarriages you mean? I dont think those broke her, just made her overprotective of Robin. Shes always been batshit crazy

@LagiNaLangAko23 she was arguably crazy before that, though that's a possible catalyst for it worsening.

I mean, she raped Littlefinger while they were like 13. That's not really sane lol

Sam Stark And she helped kick off the war of the Five Kings

@@someguy1576 and didn't help her sister and her sister's family when the war of the 5 kings started. She is a frickin bitch. She deserved to be thrown out of the moon door

Used him as pack mule and slave until he needed a one-use doorstop. Oh and using him as meat puppet every so often.

What makes it worse is how he showed no remorse for what he did.

I think by the end, Bran wasn't even human enough to be held to standards of compassion and empathy. I think he saw so much, knew so much, existed at such a scale that one human life was barely a blip in his radar. Using Hodor as a pack mule - yeah, that's just him being a privileged kid doing what was deemed normal in the messed up world he grew up in. But by the time Hold The Door was a thing, he was barely human enough for it to matter. I don't say this as a way of condoning his actions - I think he existed beyond condoning or condemning. That is NOT a good thing. If you knew everything in the history of the universe, if you could look forward and back as easy as stepping over a puddle and knew every repercussion of the littlest action - and if, before being given that power, you were a privileged child with limited knowledge and depth and worldview - it would be very, very, VERY easy to see individual people as just barely pawns in whatever larger game only you could wholly see, because you a) knew the ends to every mean with enough surety to feel it was justified and b) were unconsciously taught your whole life to see most people as disposable, and didn't grow old enough to consciously unlearn that before being given this power. In short, putting him on the iron throne is a very, very, VERY bad idea.

I wonder if bran was the one who made The mad king mad. We know he can go to the past so maybe he went to the past and made The king mad

Marwan Ali you sir, you are a genius.

Flesh Weasel I can’t wait till the rest of the books. I won’t and a whole lot of people have said they will never watch anything D&D does again and they should redo season 8 make it like a dream period.

Flesh Weasel maddest doesn’t even began to describe it 🤦🏼‍♀️

I cant even re watch GOT because of season 8

I'm thinking there was something in the wine that caused a sudden mass hysteria of idiocy, because everyone got real stupid real fast.

baddest

Thank you! I came here looking for this comment. There aren't many mad characters in game of thrones /asoif. Plenty of evil ones tho

Madness is not necessarily an impairement of judgement or perception, that would be ... psychosis maybe? Madness mostly lies in a drastic deviation from normal way of thinking or behaviour, often threatening the ability to function socially.

@Will Fryer 2 you mean that it's not a *concrete* concept

Ramsay is insane because he tortures people in a sick way on the other hand u have balish who can hurt people or even kill the innocent for his own good but he won't enjoy torturing them like joffrey and ramsay

Ramsay was a complete psychopath. He knew what he was doing but he doesn't understand the difference between right and wrong as he lacks common human characteristics as empathy. He is manipulative and can act fairly normal.

True, must be quite a strain on the mind trying to keep the story going while making sure the characters don't get forgotten or go completely out of character.

definitely! although george rr martin got most of his inspiration from real history/historical characters (not saying that this is less imaginative or original than any other writing technique, just that it's a cool fact of GOT lore lol)

Federico Acosta he should make a part two

Shagwell is not mad, he's aMUSing!

I don’t think Euron is mad, he’s just evil

I’m surprised euron didn’t make it in considering he cuts out his whole crews tongues out

Patch face

If Margery sank her claws in him and tore him from cersei' s grasp, who knows, maybe a little decent as Margery was having that effect on him.

She was able to manipulate him well enough, but I reckon that his rage would break through in his desires to commit his most heinous acts. She managed to soften him several times and distract him with a smile and a comforting word, but could she really stop his worst impulses all the time? She was a fantastic politician and schemer and endlessly intelligent, but that’s a very strong ball of hate and crazy that she’s being asked to wrangle. Olenna seemingly didn’t think she could do it, else she wouldn’t have risked conspiring to kill him.

@@richardbourton4523 Exactly. Olenna knew Tommen was easier to manipulate because he showed no signs of madness. Had the Faith Militant’s takeover never happened, the Tyrells would probably be the true rulers of Westeros and Tommen will only be a king by name.

@@richardbourton4523 I fully agree. Margaery was brilliant, no one doubts that but when you’re dealing with crazy there is no “control”. It’s a time bomb not even the best can disarm.

He would've blown up on her eventually. And probably kill her with his bare hands.

Actually it’s not worse than every other pair of siblings. Twins don’t share more genes than other siblings (unless they’re in identical of course)

Cousins are far enough genetically to lower the chance of birth defects dramatically, its not great but its miles ahead of brothers and sisters And in medieval times it wasnt really rare to have cousins marry so tywin wasnt in the wrong if you look at it from the perspective of someone in the story

Pizza Pizza - I actually meant that twins don’t share more genes than other siblings do, apart from identical twins. I didn’t mean reproductivity. I understand the misunderstanding though. When I read it again I could see that it might have different meanings, depending on the way you read it xx.

That’s what I’ve been saying!

Imagine what Joffrey and Marcela's kids would be like

We owe him an important scientific proof that wildfire as expected but yet not demonstrated should not be drunk 🤣

He's in the Targaryen video

despite the fact the Court and Council were rapidly running out of members of the family when Aerion decided to remove himself from the running for King, I bet the court was still happy to hear of his death but could it please have been less stupid. And for the love of the Seven someone find a way to convince Aemon to get rid of that bloody chain!

It's interesting that Tyrion is such an oddity, and at no point it is ever mentioned that there has been other dwarfs in the family. Tyrion would surely have read about it given how insecure and obsessed he is about it. So my assumption is that his dwarfism is the result of a random mutation and not due to heredity.

Voltirus SK isnt there a theory tyrion is the mad kings child with tywins wife

@@lorcan5989 I heard about it yeah. Not fond of it at all, doesnt make sense to me.

Voltirus SK well it would explain your dwarfism questiom, why tywin hated tyrion so much, why tywin betrayed the mad king and sacked kings landing when he was sworn to protect it.

@@voltirussk4608 it only makes sense that the only 3 characters in GoT who were actively allowed to touch the dragons when they were grown were Dany, Jon and Tyrion. 2/3 being targaryen blood

i know in a medieval society like Westeros do not have modern hospital for the "insane" people or everyday Joe but they did have something for the insanity in medieval society and two it was a joke because all the characters in show or lore how are mad!

They had castles...

Plot twist: the Charakters are in a false world which is a mental institution. They are all mad there are people staging Westeros to keep the mad busy

Dont understand why she isn't here... She burned 1 million people alive, she is more mad than any of the people you have mentioned here.

@@greendragon2875 this is about the books not the shitty s8

Noé Oliveira thank you

@@noeisnothere she was mad in the show anyway. he should have included her.

whycreate you forgot the smiling knight and shagwell brother Great video either way yo

It was not joffrey, it was littlefinger.

@@patriciaplaton4010 that or both were involved

@@jakealter5504 it was Joffrey. At least in the books

@@gabbafreekil5237 I still wouldn’t rule out pytr being involved

@@jakealter5504 Joff and littlefinger def communicated. Remember Ros? Little finger gave Ros to Joff to use as a live target. Shooting her multiple times with the crossbow. I believe Joff and LF spoke, and LF took over to make the arrangements

That’s me right now. It’s 3:44.

@@maryrose8478 you should see where that time stamp leads to

He didn't try hard at all lol what series were you reading

@@fenixchief7 Well if what was said here was true then: A. He killed a cat and showed his father, most likely trying to emulate Robert since Robert was big into hunting B. He hired a murderer to kill Bran because Robert said it would be a mercy I read the same series as you my guy.

@@aenjgeal and in both he took the easy way out like he always does. He killed a cat, he didnt go hunting and he hired a killer instead of doing it himself. Is that trying hard? No. And you have exactly two instances in 13 years both being explained away as seeking his fathers approval whereas I see a simple pattern of cruelty for cruelties sake. I stand by what I said. There's no defense for the sick bastards actions.

@@fenixchief7 As I said, he's psychotic and doesn't know how to properly go about it. He was a very young kid during the cat accident so he couldn't go on a regular hunt, and he's a king, a king isn't going to go kill a random kid themself. You would hire someone else to do it. Second of all, we're starting the story once Joffrey is about 13 years old. No one has the time to go over every single possible moment where Jofffey tried to please Robert in the 13 years before the start of ASOIAF, especially not in a story as dense as GOT. Finally, no one is trying to defend or justify him. Literally where did I say "In Joffrey's defense-" ? No where. I never said or implied anything of the such. I said I felt sad for him. That's not an argument for absolution. It's a personal statement. I stand by what I said too. Thanks for the discussion.

@@aenjgeal you dont understand how those are antithetical to things that would impress robert. Even a 13 year old is smart enough to know what would impress his father. And how exactly would robert approve of joffeyr for brans assassination? You think Joffrey would tell him? Excusing his actions as attempts to gain his fathers approval is defending his actions genius...

Walder Frey isn't mad, he is just an old son of a *****

Walder Frey was just garbage but I laugh like a sociopath at his lines in Catelyn's chapters.

Euron wasn’t mad, he was basically just a game of thrones viking.

Walder’s just a jealous old man because other houses made fun of him for being late

@@miguel6141 Euron was perverted horny asshole.

add Walder Frey..This old guy was a hell of nuts

Aerion Targaryen is mad too, he thinks if he drink wildfire he became a dragon

Shagga is going to shop off your manhood and feed it to the goats...

How dare you insult Shagga son of Dolf

Euron just knows too much, he's the only sane person.

Thanks!

;)

She did her second husband dirty. And then she began to belittle him because she was mad at his sister. Rhaena Targaryen kinda sucked and she was angry her entire life

Really ?

Mad king - D & D you two are loco for real

Nah that was machiavellian which is callous as fuck but not quite insanity.

Agreed! I had him pegged him as a sociopath or psychopath. He was coldly calculated, amoral at best, and only cared about his family/children as extensions of himself (his legacy). Even if it's said that he "loved" his wife Joanna, sociopaths/psychopaths can definitely "love" other people, but it's less what we'd consider love and more like possessive love or ownership, (again) seeing the person as an extension of themselves (like an arm or a leg). Regardless, I think that he displays enough aspects of the "dark triad" personality traits (Machiavellism, psychopathy, & narcissism) to not really be considered a mentally healthy/stable "normal" person (whatever that means lol)

@@badkafka908 considering everything in GOT lore he showed quite self restraint when he was pissed. Swift and Ruthless to act yes, but not mad

@@alejandrodecesare5929 he made an innocent girl gang rapped just because he didn't like his own son, who never did nothing bad to him. Yeah, pretty restrained.

@@rmarks8 we are talking in the context of GOT. The realm of GOT and not 2021 modern world...For twyn the lives of small folks were worthless...not even pawns in the game of thrones. Even boys and women from the noble families were mere pawns in the game of Thrones. If we use modern social concept then all important characters are utter despicable...Ned with a penchant of cutting off heads... Robert Baratheon a serial rapist...Jeremy a serial murder...stanis a dictator..The targaryens making look Stalin and Hitler like Democratic leaders...and so forth...GOT is an echo of bygone feudal values

In the books, It is never said that is littlefinger who hired the killer. Jamie only assume Joffrey did it because he can't think of anybody else

Baelish is good, he is not omni-present. Also killing one of Cat's kids might be a no-go for him.

Not quite, they can be semi identical where it is the same egg but two sperm thus allowing different sexes (from fathers sperm) but with the same genetic information from the mother. Could explain their similarities (them looking very similar is mentioned in the books) theconversation.com/same-same-but-different-when-identical-twins-are-non-identical-112684 BUT its extremely rare and your point stands, genetics is just weird!

It's also possible for an xy zygote to split and for one half to lose the y chromosome, resulting in a male and a single x chromosome female (Turner's syndrome).

@@fenixchief7 I doubt Cersei has Turner's Syndrome. She doesn't have any deformities....

@@Antsandy96yeah, where did I even mention cersei?

@@fenixchief7 Considering this is a GOT video and the OP comment is about the twins (ie Cersei and Jaime) are more than likely fraternal twins... If you're not talking about Cersei then I don't get the point of your comment...?

He's a god

Euron is fucking nuts in the books, but in the show he's just a opportunistic fuck boy. D&D really messed up his character.

Jim Sty I don’t consider that version Euron, just Jack Sparrow

Jim Sty What was the book character like?

Rising Wind psychotic, badass pirate in a cool way

Rising Wind he cut out everyone’s tongue on his boat, it’s implied he sexually abused Victarion as a child in the books, a rumour goes around the iron islands he sent a faceless man to kill Balon, and I think he raped Victarions wife. That’s all I can remember but I’m sure he’s done worse.

Huh

@@ryanowns5 *Joker Phoenix smoking meme* "You wouldn't get it."

Mad king - bro you are too much

Wisdom Manari' you mean rhaegar

MicroBoy 9000 yes, hope he does the Nightfort lore

Targaryen madness
