Sansa's one of my favourite character in the books. I really liked her from the beginning - although I thought the narrative treated her a bit unfairly in the rivalry with Arya, but then it got better IMHO. I like that she's always compassionate and kind, even when put into circumstances where she'd have a right to be bitter and angry; I like that she loves songs and romance so much, it makes her PoV fun (especially in the way it's unreliable). I also love the curtesy as armor shtick, I love it when a character who appears as weak and demure can show real strength, and that's the hopes I've got for Sansa :)
2) Is he/she important to the general plot?
Not so much so far. She's been instrumental to Joffrey's murder but she had very little agency into that. Although as a PoV she's been important to show events in Kings' Landing and Littlefinger's plotting - but otherwise she's been a pretty passive character as far as the broad plot is concerned.
3) Can you relate to this character at all? Do they grip you emotionally?
Yeah, I can relate to the dreaminess as a fantasy book reader XD I've felt sorry for her as well when she was treated badly.
4) How much do you like the fandom that this character comes from?
ASOIAF is a very weird fandom. It tends to be pretty dramatic and wanky, but it can also be nice - I've made several good friends through it. It's also very divided into several subfandoms, so to speak, which don't seem to talk with each others much. Which, yeah, weird.
5) Do you ship this character with any other character? Or, are you particularly intrigued by their relationship with any other character(s)? (romance-wise or platonic)
I'm ridiculously fond of Sandor/Sansa XD they have a great dynamic despite the inherant creepiness. Or because of the inherant creepiness? Anyway it's a well done Beauty&beast pairing, and I really dig that. Littlefinger/Sansa, while even more creepy and not something I would truely ship is also a very intriguing relationship to explore.
Otherwise... I found Sansa and Cersei had some very interesting interactions in a non shippy way. Oh, and there's also Sansa & Arya's sisterhood. I would have like to see more of Sansa and Margaery interacting with each others too.
6) Is there anything about the character you would change?
Have the narrative be more fair to her, from the beginning.
7) If you were in the fandom with this character or knew this character in real life, how do you see yourself interacting with him/her? (Would you get along well? Fall in love with? Dislike? Friendly rivalry? etc etc)
Hmmm hard to say. I think I would either stay on acquaintance level without getting much close or befriend and develop a crush on her.
8) Does this character make the cut as one of your all time favorites (if you like) or least favorites?
lol I guess she does.
9) Would you hype up this character (if you like) or warn about (if you dislike) to someone whose new to the fandom?
Hmmm that's not likely.
