Tyrion Lannister: a Force of Nature
Game of Thrones fans have been lucky enough to have Tyrion Lannister as an integral character since Season One of the hit show. It was clear from the start that he was set to cement his place as an iconic figure in the series.
Tyrion's snappy dialogue, wit and charm have made him a fan favourite. His influence on the show is clear, with Tyrion playing a major role in major story lines. Tyrion has always been one of the most vibrant characters in the show, every scene he's in gripping viewers' attention.
No one can deny Tyrion's power and influence on Game of Thrones, particularly from Season One onwards. He has been central component of the show since the very beginning, and it only looks like his presence is growing more and more influential every episode. He has been a key figure in the resolution of major conflicts, such as the Lannisters' war with the Starks, and his allegiance to Daenerys and Aegon in the later seasons.
A Proven Record of Leadership
Tyrion has a proven record of leadership, being appointed the Hand of the Queen on five separate occasions. His leadership has been invaluable in the strategic planning behind the capture of Meereen and the Battle of the Goldroad to stop the army of the dead. His knowledge of politics has been instrumental in keeping the fragile peace in Westeros after the death of Cersei.
