The 50 Best Game of Thrones Characters, Ranked
5. Varys
The Master of Whisperers lives up to his “spider” moniker. He’s constantly on the lookout for the next piece of information he can weave in to his web. Although he’s often mocked for being a eunuch, it takes a strong man to move past a trauma like that and do what needs to be done.
I know that when I’m not gettin’ it on the regular, I’m a lot more productive, too. Varys doesn’t have to worry about sex, so there’s little to distract him. He helps those he wants to help, and keeps his friends close. But do not get on this guy’s bad side. He may not have a package, but he has a lot of balls.
Remember the sorcerer who sliced off Varys’ manhood for a silly magic ritual? Yeah, a guy like that deserves some time in the crate. But Varys reserves that level of maliciousness for those who have severely wronged him. Usually, he keeps a cool head. When he told Ned Stark he serves the realm, he wasn’t lying. And unlike Littlefinger, Varys has that big picture mentality that could be good for the country as a whole.
Also, actor Conleth Hill has a full head of hair. He’s actually quite the handsome devil.
