Is his only motivation for waging war against the living and the 7 kingdoms really just going to be
>muh evil bad guy whos bad for the sake of it >:)
Is there seriously nothing more to this potentially great character?

Why don’t you talk about your chick show in one of the dozens of open threads on it
THE SHOW LOOKS LIKE A WATERED DOWN SOAP!!
WHAT THE HELL??
He is the only man left in the show.
What happened to his face?
hes starting to melt
have sex
cold man bad
i feel like it wasn't his decision
I’d be fine with this if they were just completely emotionless and inhuman but they clearly have some sort of way to make armor and weapons, there’s that one horseman who looks at Sam quizzically and then spares him, and then the other one who fights Jon and does a double take when Longclaw manages to block his weapon. So the show has given us enough information to show that they have some sort of culture and individual personality but for some reason just decides to never show it to us
hes gotten cOLDER
why didn't the Children just turn another guy into an anti-white walker?
Why can't people just accept that the Night King and the White Walkers are a weapon made by the Children of the Forest to exterminate man that just went out of control? The Children went extinct, the Wall was built that slowed his progress, and that they just didn't give homeboy an Off Switch?
Bran already told us his motivation is to erase history which is why he wants Bran so badly
why tho lol that's a fuckin gay motivation it doesn't make any sense why the fuck would he even care? 99% of Westeros doesn't even know their own history, 80% of Westeros isn't even related to the founding population.
Because they’re not mindless robots. They clearly have self awareness but we’re never given enough insight into them for it to be interesting
>Why can't people just accept D&Ds shit writing?
So why does the Night King decide that some babies deserve to get turned into White Walkers while others get killed?
he apparently only likes inbred wildling male infants
So will the "mothership" mechanic happen in the books or dit Dabid just write himself into a corner and came up with it on the fly?
>wahhh why doesn't he have le ebin goal like muh Marvel movies??!? :(
Even in Summer it's cold and snowy Beyond the Wall, why didn't the Night King recruit White Walkers and Wights for past 8000 years, instead of beating his meat all day?
a reason for his actions would be nice other than he needs to for the show to have le ebin battle!!! Don't think that's much to ask
He looks like a n*gger
If I know anything about asoiaf he'll have a motive that actually noble
there may have been other Crasters throughout history that he farmed babies from
That would be a dream come true
he's looking for gibs
But why didn't he raise all the Wildlings that died in the past 8000 years? That's at least a couple of million soldiers
a black walker
black runner**
have sex
woah
Yep it’s stupid but it is what it is I guess. The far man is a fucking hack that made a series based around shock factor while having no real story behind it. The show of course is even worse
This is the actor that plays him
every other leader wants to take the seven kingdoms too, just cos this dude never speaks he's suddenly the bad guy to everyone.
>charred guys made out of fire
mite b cool
They’ll do some psychic bullshit between him and Bran where they explain it. Cap it
He literally wants to die. Listen to the show. Why are you guys such retards?
Ok this is a good way to look at it if there's no other developments on his character
It’s Danaerys dad
he'll be so bored and lonely afterwards though
I assume wildlings burn their dead as a custom so no bodies are left.
So why didn’t he just let the dragon kill him
so she's going to fuck him then? or at least suck his cock?
Because he has to kill bran to end the cycle so he can finally just die.
>potentially great character
By default all characters are potentially interesting. They have done nothing whatsoever to make him appear as though he will be developed or engaging beyond being just a bad guy or an asspull Bran.
Shouldn't Aria fight for him?
How come there is not a single cult that follows him?
He's actually Rhaegar, the true true true true TRUE heir to the Iron Throne.
got to kill bran because bran is human random access memory
show is fucking retarded
>anti-white walker
Night King is older Bran trying to kill his younger self to prevent everything from ever happening.
wouldn't it make more sense to kill the power supply then?
This is a stupid question. Have sex.
or unplug the weirwood ethernet cables
>the past and future fighting each other in the present
"Fuck Einstein" -GRRM
He is the fantasy equivalent of an machine whose only purpose was to build toothpicks. Eventually it runs out of wood, so it starts making toothpicks out of anything, including humans. The children of the forest didn’t make the night king to protect themselves, they made him to defeat the humans. Turns out the best way to defeat humanity is to freeze the world. The night king has no motivation. He is just a machine that wasn’t programmed correctly.
there aren't even any human spies either that made some sort of deal with the devil
Makes you wonder who he was back as a human. Some random chode they picked up or specifically chosen for the role.
This guy was creepier desu
He's actually Bran and still has a vendetta against Jaime. I thought this was common knowledge?
Bran the builder.
till Bran "remembers" NK remembers too, sice they are connected somehow. He himself cannot die and since he is so old and sick of his own existence - the only thing he may desire is death. Wich is for him is oblivion that Bran`s death may bring.
Dude just wants to set a period in his way long sentence and it`s completely understandable.
Bad thing is - human kind cannot just sacrifice Bran, because it won`t stop NK anyway whether he`s conscious or not.
This was explained, brainlet.
He was literally created by the children to hate the first men and want to wipe them out, because the first men were killing the children. The children realized the huge mistake they made when the NK instead took that as an order to kill everyone.
>beat all the duelists in the north
>only challenge left is south of the wall
>some autists don't want you to go there because you're using illegal old cards
yeah, we don't get any view of the WW side of things, but it's not difficult to come up with possibilities.
for example:
>he's literally engineered to do it (fair reason)
>revenge on all living things for making him unliving (pisspoor reason, but he's a bigbrain so it makes some sense)
>living things are the only threat to his undeath (fair reason)
honestly this whole thing just gives me skyrim vibes. substitute a civil war for whatever this war is, substitute alduin worldeater for the nightking.
but then also consider that there is a lot of religious stuff going on- not only is there a religious fanaticism plot; but there's also this lord of light cult stuff. religion is playing a big part in the story, and it tying into the WWs would not be surprising. We saw the nightking being "created", but we don't know if that's really the start of the nightking. It could simply be an incarnation of a god into a physical form.
thus far, of the deities which appear to possess some actual power, we have
>lord of light, bringing peeps back to life + visions
>many faced god, basically just messes with peoples faces sure but does seem to be more than just smoke and mirrors
these given, it might be reasonable to assume that there are some true forms of deities around, and the nightking is some representation of one of them.
in that case, the nightking may be serving a religious goal in accordance with one of these, might be one of these, in which case it may be in his very nature to kill all life, might be the tool of one of these, and he'll have been designed, again, to have this in his very nature.
So I would argue that, while we don't know his motivation, it would not be difficult for him to be given one- a reasonably good one- at some time in the near future.
Stop fucking giving answers to everything. It's not in the spirit of Yea Forums!
Looks like a BENT COPPER to me fellas
ONE THING AND ONE THING ONLY
BENT COPPERS
>this whole thing just gives me skyrim
this is Warcraft as fuck, they even copied the WoTLK cinematic
He’s trying to migrate to southern pole
Lowered his cgi budget to combat wage inequality.
>Fur dik
Yikes from me
It's a lame excuse for a world that is supposed to be grey and morally confusing, even for the worst of the worst. GRRM hints there's more to their motivations than rogue weapon of mass destruction or mindless evil, yet the show goes down the route of lazy villains.
when you look at the white walkers you see a threat, i see a doctor and engineer and a scientist
...
>potentially great character
>blue guy who is cold
Literally just Mr. Freeze.
okay, but She is a servant of death. Guy is literally death.
>all men must die
>kills all men
>all men must serve
>rises them and makes them serve in his army
Why are the faceless noobs not sucking this guys dick he literally embodies their little slogan
No. The wall was built because of the Others, your timeline doesn't line up.
Jews aren’t always smart, user, sometimes they are dumb like these two showrunner hacks, who are obviously only good at producing aka having the right connections.
It was already established this isn't the case you dumb shit. Re watch the show and figure out why he's doing this.
Your IQ is 90 at best.
>mute, shirtless zombies with hunter-gatherer tier ice spears
I think the chromatic armor and weapons and the mysterious language from the books would have been cooler
>there are people literally defending this show itt and giving the hack writers the benefit of the doubt
Redditors say they’re symbolizing the IMPORTANT issue of global warming, see I really wish I get to see a war on American soil in my lifetime.
I figured he was created to be the great leveller and end wars.
So that's what he does faultless and perfectly. End wars.
Nobody can wage war if all parties of power are dead.
They die, humanity gets its peace and another chance to rebuild and get it right this time and the white walkers all fuck off till the families get too much political or magical or weaponised power and they come back to reset it all.
