3. No But Really, What Are His Powers?

While there's a lot to support the idea of Bran becoming King - including plenty of evidence it'll happen in the books too - it has been slightly frustrating how vague the show has made his powers.

While it's made clear that he's the Three-Eyed Raven and serves as Westeros' living memory, there's still a lot that's unclear: can he see the future? If so, how much exactly can he see, and is he able to act upon any of it, or must events play out as he's seen them? There's definitely an implication he can see the future - his words in the finale about coming south suggest as much - but it's not really defined enough, especially when such powers could go a long way to helping (or hindering) his rule.
