Tyrion Lannister, we do here invite you to our house this evening

Tywin Lannister, Lord of Casterly Rock and Warden of the West, and now until recently, Hand of the King. His son Jaime called "the king slayer" is heir to Casterly Rock and a twin to Queen Cersei, who was wife and Queen to the previous king, Robert Baratheon. However due to his recent passing the Iron throne has now passed to their eldest child, Joffrey Baratheon. Finally belonging to the house of Lannister, Tyrion. Brother to both Cersei and Jaime, who on his way into the world killed their mother during birth. Tyrion was born and Imp. Small he is with crooked legs who pain him when he walks. However he is smart. Intelligent and extremely humorous in his own inappropriate way. Names are thrown his way constantly but they never truly get under his skin. He learned to embrace what he was and use it in a way that benefited him. Game of Thrones is a family event that happens every Sunday at 8:00 in my house. We eat dinner, and set up to watch. It’s a sort of bonding time and something my whole family enjoys. Now we all have our favorite characters of course, but we all also have a special place in out heart for Tyrion Lannister. We feel the weight on his shoulders when his father causes him grief and I think if we were to invite anyone out of all the 10 main characters to our house, we would invite him. Not because we pity him, but because he has this fire in his heart that blazes every now and again. The littlest of things can ignite the fire and you find yourself engulfed in the character that is Tyrion Lannister.
