Wow, really?

I'm not that good at telling people's enneatype, but I don't think she's a 7? She's not very upbeat or colorful, and now looking at a description, it says a 7 is worried about missing out on worthwile experiences, maintaining their freedom and happiness, as well as that they want to avoid and discharge pain. Brienne doesn't seem too worried about missing out on worthwhile experiences. She must have spent a lot of time training by herself, away from everyone and everything. Also, her happiness and freedom seem to come second to what she believes in. Finally, her choice of profession is not the one you do if you don't like pain. And even if one can sort of just fall into one, Brienne's is so unusual and unexpected for her, that it isn't quite like that.

I find myself, after considering 2 and 1, thinking in lines of type 6?
oh, wrong person, I was talking about Arya this whole time. my bad lol
 
ASOFAI books were so good for the first three, but the recent ones are so bad. Martin has clearly lost his spark, and I feel nothing for the characters anymore save two. I was going through some of the books, they have very little reread value, like a cheap mystery series. It just kind of builds to the end rather than being enjoyable through character development, descriptive settings, etc. It's the bane of most fantasy series.

My favorite character is definitely Jaime, Tyrion has his witty moments, and Jon Snow is alright. Bronn is my favorite minor character.
I enjoyed Joffrey because he was amusing for what Martin intended to be. The Hound is boring, better in the films though. I hate Dany. She is the worst. She is so boring, even worse in the novels. How it feels in the books with Dany...

Step 1: Attain her beloved
 

Step 2: Wander around complaining
Step 3: Yell at someone because you are going to take over the world one day.
Step 4: Go to step 2
Step 5: ACTUALLY TAKE OVER THE F*CKING WORLD
 
Tyrion is by a wide margin, the most enjoyable character in my eyes. I do have a soft spot for Arya as well. Eddard was really enjoyable because he clashed so hugely with the world he lives in. He was a character that seemed to be transplanted from a more clear-cut classical good vs. evil book, and the moral ambiguity of the SOIAF universe made him a really interesting source of juxtaposition. Of course, this is also why he needed to die, people that try to strongly uphold values (he's an ITJ or my left foot is made of gravy) don't last long in that world.

I think, that the best character is Tyrion Lannister... I love his sense of humor and even though he acted like a bad guy, he has the best heart from the Lannisters... I also like Daenerys Targaryen, if someone has the real right for the throne it´s her.
 
Bran, Arya, Rhaegar Targaryen, and Roose Bolton, all very close in ranking. After those top four would be Barristan Selmy and Jaqen H'Ghar.

Re: Brienne, I'm still deciding whether she's an ISTJ with strong Fi or ISFP. Either way she's a brilliant character.
 
On the subject of Game of Thrones this might be very suitable for the topic (pardon the slight derailment).


Tyrion, Arya, Danaerys... oh- and Bronn.

In no particular order: Ned Stark, Rhaegar Targaryen, Jaime Lannister, Jon Snow, Tyrion Lannister, Oberyn Tyrell, Barristan the Bold, Lyanna Stark, and Aegon the Unlikely (for those who don't know who this is, read the Dunk and Egg short stories).
 
I've only watched the show, but I like Theon, Tyrion, Jaime, Arya and The Hound a lot. I really like Sansa too when I think about it, I kinda get the feeling she's gonna be a powerful player in the future, learning under that Lannister lady and all...
