The fate of Ser Gregor Clegane, a.k.a.Lysa had also raped Petyr at least once (he was drunk after being rejected by Catelyn, and even called Lysa "Cat" while they were having sex), and possibly twice (after Petyr had been gravely wounded, possibly compromising his ability to knowingly consent), making her even more unlikeable.Said murder victim also helped Littlefinger poison her husband and manipulate her sister, eventually starting a war, and was threatening to kill a young girl, her niece, whom she thought was seducing her husband, so she's pretty hard to sympathize with as well. It's hard for the reader to feel too bad since Marillion previously tried to rape Sansa. In A Feast for Crows Sansa and Littlefinger frame the singer Marillion for a murder Littlefinger committed.Most of the Freys who wind up dead in the story (with the exceptions of the decent Ser Stevron Frey and his disabled son Aegon "Jinglebell" Frey, Tion Frey, and the young Frey children killed by the Brotherhood on Lady Stoneheart’s order), especially after the Red Wedding.
However, after their original leader Beric Dondarrion dies, they are taken over by Lady Stoneheart, and though their victims generally have it coming, their attempt to hang the honorable and kind-hearted Brienne shows their changing motivations.
The Brotherhood without Banners' victims were generally this, The Brotherhood having their mission to protect the smallfolk who were being worst hit by the war and punish those who oppressed them. The specific thing that sent Tyrion after him? Orchestrating the gang-rape of Tyrion's first wife just because she was a commoner. Tyrion Lannister killing his father Tywin at the end of A Storm of Swords. Needless to say, not many people mourn him, even though he was only a teenager, as he was one of the most hated characters in the series. After spending several books of being an asshat of a king, Joffrey is soon poisoned in the Purple Wedding. Whether or not that's true or a sufficient reason to kill him, readers aren't likely to care, given Craster's penchant for raping his daughters and killing his infant sons. In A Storm of Swords, Craster is killed in a mutiny when the starving men of The Night's Watch believe he's hoarding food and not sharing enough with them. Do some of the mathematics that Theon shys away from thinking about, particularly for the younger one. Worse, these weren't two random boys he actually knew them both, because he regularly *cough* visited *cough* their mother at their home, and he knew they were about the right ages to pass. Including (but not restricted to) allowing two children to be killed to both try to cover his own ass and intimidate everybody into backing down when the Stark children actually escaped. Regardless, Theon did a lot of awful stuff upon taking Winterfell. Ramsay brutally tortures Theon, turning him into The Woobie. Drogo responded by dumping a pot of molten gold on him, and it is described in all of its grisly glory. This led to him getting himself drunk and threatening Daenerys's unborn child in front of Drogo as yet another threat to do what he wanted. When Dany marries Khal Drogo and journeys with him to the Dothraki Sea, Viserys spends all of his time complaining and making threats against everyone for not getting what he wanted immediately, eventually being humiliated by Drogo in front of his khalasar. Viserys Targaryen spent much of his backstory psychologically (and it's implied, physically) abusing his sister Daenerys during their exile. means that it is somewhat inevitable note For victims from the TV Series, go here.:
Martin is very fond of this trope, although the sheer number of both victims and assholes or assholes being assholes to other assholes thus creating bigger or more broken assholes.
