One wouldn’t be out of line to suspect that those who go gaga for swords and sorcery, and the like, might be of a more rugged and butch strain of nerd. Derring do, after all, is not the province of the milquetoast nor the layabout. In our experience, though, it turns out that these fantasy enthusiasts are maybe not so tough. So, for these gentler types, it’s for the best that between their games of D&D and World of Warcraft, and bottles of Mountain Dew, they can nestle up in their beanbag chairs, in front of their TVs, out of harm’s way, and centuries past the frankly wretched living conditions of the Middle Ages, to watch Game of Thrones; HBO’s adaptation of George R.R. Martin‘s best-selling series of novels, A Song of Fire and Ice. Here, we’ve taken the six top-billed performers from this hotly anticipated epic, fantasy series, and played our own game of thrones with them (whatever that might even be; I guess we should watch or read to find out), by ranking them according to their PeekScores.

Are there any actors in the series that you think we should have included in our list? Tell us what you think!
