Now that it's officially March, spring may be just around the corner but Winter Is Coming at the end of the month.  HBO recently released the first full trailer for season three of Game of Thrones and now there are 12 new character posters to feast your eyes upon. The shadowy figures come from the various houses of Westeros and differing levels of fandom.  Do you prefer the golden-haired Cersei (Lena Headey) or her roguish brother Jaime (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau)?  Perhaps the Stark family is more to your liking?  Or do you fancy your heroes a bit banged up, like The Hound (Rory McCann) or Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage)?  Whatever your pleasure, you can find them all after the jump.
