Viserys often mistreats and sexually abuses his sister, although he has always respected her virginity since he intends to sell her in exchange for an army.

He has a bad case of gout which has recently left him unable to walk, instead having to rely on his wheeled chair, or a palanquin, to move around. His body is soft and shapeless, and the gout has swollen and reddened the joints of his knees, toes, and hands. He covers his legs and feet with a blanket, blocking the sight of his gout. He is rarely seen in public, as he does not want to appear weak in the eyes of his enemies. Doran has been focused for years on getting revenge for the murder of his sister, Elia, and her two young children during the Sack of King's Landing during Robert's Rebellion in 283 AC.

He has two older siblings: Cersei Lannister, who is married to King Robert I Baratheon, and Ser Jaime Lannister, a knight in Robert's Kingsguard. Tyrion is a dwarf and is often referred to as the Imp or the Halfman. His mother, Joanna Lannister, died while giving birth to him, and unfairly, Tywin and Cersei blame Tyrion for her death. Tyrion has stunted legs, stubby fingers, and a protruding forehead. His eyes are different colors, with one green and the other black. Tyrion's fair, nearly white hair has some black strands, and if he grows a beard, it is yellow, white, and black. Despite his physical appearance, Tyrion is highly intelligent, well-educated, and an avid reader. He possesses sharp wit and a quick tongue. Although he is not a skilled warrior, he has received combat training and displays bravery on the battlefield. Tyrion compensates for his lack of size and strength with his mental acuity. Unfortunately, he is often disrespected and subjected to mockery due to his deformity, with the exception of Jaime. Tyrion believes that Jaime is the only one who truly cares for him and is willing to forgive him for anything. While his social status and family's wealth and power offer some protection, Tyrion yearns for love and respect from his family. Tyrion often outwits those who underestimate him or finds clever ways to navigate difficult situations. Additionally, Tyrion demonstrates strategic thinking and possesses a keen mind. Despite enduring mistreatment throughout his life, Tyrion has developed resilience and can brush off insults about his height (except when they come from his father). He becomes upset when the helpless are harmed. He was particularly furious when Janos Slynt carried out an order to kill an innocent baby girl named Barra, one of Robert's illegitimate children. As punishment, Tyrion exiled Janos to the Wall. Tyrion is genuinely loyal to those who treat him with love and respect. However, Tyrion has his flaws. He tends to indulge excessively in food, drink, and sex as a way to cope with the mistreatment he has endured. Additionally, if he feels wronged, he can act viciously. Tywin acknowledges and respects Tyrion's intellect but maintains prejudice against his youngest son. Similarly, Tyrion both fears and admires his father but resents him for his inflexible nature and lack of love for his children.

Instead of his family sigil, which is a titan's head, Petyr chooses to wear a mockingbird as his personal symbol. Petyr has always been clever and cunning. Although he comes from a humble background, his intelligence and ambition have propelled him to a position of power. Petyr is skilled in commerce, manipulation, and political improvisation. Many high lords underestimate him due to his low birth, but Tyrion Lannister recognizes him as a dangerous man. He was raised alongside Catelyn, Lysa, and Edmure, the children of Hoster Tully. Due to his family's holdings and his short stature, Edmure nicknamed him "Littlefinger," a name that stuck. Petyr fell in love with Catelyn, but she saw him only as a brother. Lysa, on the other hand, loved Petyr. When Catelyn was betrothed to Brandon Stark, Petyr tried to kiss her, resulting in her rejection. Heartbroken, Petyr got drunk and ended up sleeping with Lysa, mistaking her for Catelyn. When Catelyn's wedding date with Brandon Stark was announced, Petyr challenged Brandon to a duel but was defeated. Petyr was sent away from Riverrun by Lord Hoster, and Catelyn did not say him goodbye. However, Lysa had become pregnant with Petyr's child as a result of their second sexual encounter. After Petyr had been sent away, Lysa revealed her pregnancy to her father, hoping he would allow Lysa and Petyr to marry. Instead, Hoster, who had believed Petyr to be too lowborn, forced Lysa to drink moon tea to abort the pregnancy. Petyr later sent Catelyn a letter, but she burned it without reading it. Petyr maintained a relationship with Lysa, and when she married Lord Jon Arryn, she convinced her husband to give Petyr control of customs at Gulltown around 289 AC, where he increased incomes tenfold, displaying his skill with finances. Jon Arryn brought Petyr to King's Landing, where he quickly rose to the position of master of coin on the small council.

8. #8Person: Varysselective

   Keys: Varys, the Spider

   Varys, known as the Spider, serves as the master of whisperers on King Robert I Baratheon's small council, a role he previously held under King Aerys II Targaryen. Varys is a plump, bald, and effeminate eunuch with soft white hands. He smells like lavender, lilacs, and rosewater. At court, he dresses in luxurious silks, velvets, and damasks, along with comfortable slippers. His outward manner is obsequious, mysterious, and squeamish. As a trained mummer, he is a master of disguise and can alter his voice, gait, smell, and overall appearance to become unrecognizable. Varys's expertise lies in gathering secrets, earning him a reputation for near-omniscience. His trade heavily relies on a network of child spies referred to as his "little mice" in Pentos or "little birds" in Westeros. Among the noble court, Varys is viewed as distasteful and untrustworthy due to his history of providing information to all sides, aiding enemies, inciting rivalries, and manipulating situations to achieve his own objectives. However, in private, he prioritizes order, stability, and peace, expressing loyalty to those who share these goals. Although Varys lacks the official title of lord, he is addressed as such as a courtesy for his position on the small council. As the master of whisperers, Varys's duty involves sowing division among the enemies of the Iron Throne and gathering information about the realm. Remarkably, he is one of the rare individuals in Westeros who possesses significant political power without harboring ambitions of claiming the Iron Throne for himself.

Rhaegar and Elia had two children, Rhaenys and Aegon. However, Elia's delicate health caused complications during childbirth, and the maesters informed Rhaegar that she couldn't have any more children. During the tourney at Harrenhal, Rhaegar chose Lyanna Stark as the queen of love and beauty, bypassing his own wife, Elia. This action marked the beginning of troubled times. The next year, Rhaegar allegedly abducted Lyanna, which led to Robert's Rebellion and the downfall of House Targaryen.
