“With regard to beauty, we attempted to place characters according to how they are conventionally perceived within the world of the books
and show, not our own perceptions of the actors and actresses — although we were definitely personally biased in a couple of cases,” Mr. Tucker wrote in an email.
We owe special thanks to Toph Tucker and Anitra Sprauten, two “Thrones” fans who came up with this formulation last summer during some downtime
in Brussels; Mr. Tucker posted a photograph of his scatter plot on Instagram around the time this season’s first episode aired.
If the characters lie along a diagonal line from the bottom left to the top right, it means
that — whether in how they are depicted or just our perception — we may be conflating moral and physical goodness.
