Player: Riddle Character: Sansa Stark Current Canon Point: After she watches Ramsay Bolton devoured by his dogs. Updated Canon Point: After she is crowned Queen of the North.
Updated Background: Being reunited with Jon, Bran and Arya has strengthened Sansa and given her stronger roots to protect Winterfell. No matter where her siblings journey, they will have a home. However Sansa quickly shows that she isn't blinded by love/emotion for even her family. When she doesn't agree with Jon or sees that his plans will fail, she makes other accommodations and uses her resources to see the outcome she desires. She feels comfortable doing so since her desires are for the safety/sanctity of the North.
However, after meeting the much spoken about Daenerys Targaryen, conquering the Night King and hearing about the travestytragedy of King's Landing wherein thousands perished, Sansa truly shows that she has become a fine leader/lady/queen of Winterfell (and thus the North in its entirety south of what is left of the Wall). Since Jon decides to join the Wildlings and Bran is crowned King of the Six Kingdoms, Sansa is left to rule the North alone. She finds the position quite suitable - as do her men. They are extremely loyal to their Queen and I think it is safe to say Sansa has no trouble working with Bran if the need ever arises.
Updated Personality: Sansa has grown into a powerful, wise, cunning ruler who knows how to protect herself and her people. She will not fall for lies or pretty words - she has learned well from Cersei Lannister, Petyr Baelish and all the rest. She refuses to fail in all the ways they did, yet she will continue to carry their lessons close to her heart. Even tragedies can be learning points and Sansa no longer lets herself be bogged down by emotion. She does what she must without hesitation or regret.
I think how she dealt with and reacted to Daenerys in particular was very telling for how much she has grown. First and foremost in her mind are the rights of her people and their freedom. Daenerys might be backed by her Unsullied and Dothraki (not to mention, at the time, two dragons), but Sansa wasn't afraid to make her stand. She has found where she belongs and finally the broken bird has mended and been set free.
Updated Abilities: Other than a bolstered confidence, there is nothing to note.
