10 Game Of Thrones Characters You Shouldn't Mess With

By Ian Zelaya /

Game of Thrones is a series that has some of the most bad-ass characters on television today. Whether they're a skilled knight, ruthless sellsword or a shadow-binding sorceress, they all possess power in their own light. In only a little over a month, we will get to see them back in action when our favorite medieval fantasy returns for season 3, which promises to be the most action-packed season yet. In a series where most of the characters are neither fully "bad" nor fully "good," it can be hard for a die-hard to find someone they actually don't like. Yes, even the ones who push little boys from windows. However, if you were a resident of Westeros, there are some people you simply wouldn't want to mess with. When it comes to these ten characters, let's just say it would be a good idea to get on their good side (only includes those who have been introduced in the show, not in the books - spoilers).

10. Roose Bolton

Lord of the Dreadfort and the head of House Bolton, this cold and cruel man was introduced in Season 2 as a supporter of Robb Stark. Known for being soft-spoken and emotionless, this is a man you wouldn't want to cross. His sigil is a flayed man and even though the practice flaying is outlawed, it's safe to say the terrible act is still practiced in his house. Get on his bad side and you might be without a couple fingers and toes.
