King Joffrey I Baratheon is one of the main antagonists of A Song of Ice and Fire and its TV adaptation Game of Thrones. He was a sadistic and disputed ruler of the Seven Kingdoms in the continent of Westeros.
He was played by Jack Gleeson in Game of Thrones.
What Makes Him Pathetic?[]
- He had a little, harmless boy killed for waving a sword at him.
- He ordered babies to be executed in the TV show.
- In the books, he killed a pregnant cat by opening her belly.
- Decapitating Eddard Stark in front of his daughter Sansa in spite of promising to spare him. To make matters worse, he ordered her to watch this, as well as stare at Eddard's sewered head later.
- He abuses Sansa out of sadistic glee while punishing her brother for his victories.
- He is very lazy, often slouching back in his throne and constantly requesting the hard parts of other tasks be handled for him.
What Makes Him a Pinhead?[]
- As summarized by Tyrion, he was a vicious yet idiotic king, as he prolonged a war after executing a political prisoner just for sadistic kicks.
- He loses a fight to Arya, a literal small child, and begs for his life.
- In the TV show, he abuses his prostitutes by having them brutally beat each other up and sodomize each other at will, training with his crossbow at the cost of their lives.
- He planned to up Robb's severed head at Sansa's wedding just to hurt her even further, which only ended up shocking his already-cruel family members.
- He is an inept and incompetent ruler, as his power relies heavily on instilling fear rather than actual efficiency or skill.
