Fall TV: The Ultimate PowerMeter of Power Characters10 of 10
Cersei Lannister, "Game of Thrones"
Power Ranking: 1
Job: Queen of the Andals and the First Men, Protector of the Seven Kingdoms
Power Moves: Orchestrated Tyrion's death. Engineered Margaery's arrest. Ordered Qyburn to set the Great Sept on fire, thereby killing all of her enemies. Ascended to the Iron Throne
Strengths: Ambition, deviousness, strategy, royal lineage
Weaknesses: Her lust for her brother Jaime, high number of enemies, prophecy that she will die
Analysis: Cersei ended Season 5 with a naked walk of shame. She ended Season 6 as the ruler of Westeros. That's arguably the biggest power gain in television history. Her rise resulted in the death of Tommen, her only surviving child. His demise means she has only one remaining vulnerability: Jaime. We just wish Cersei had the power to make Season 7 start sooner.
