I can see Malcolm becoming a playable character. I feel like they need somebody in Mereen with all that's going on there.
The current playable characters are covering events beyond the wall, in King's Landing, in Ironrath...It would be interesting to get somebody who's hanging around Stannis to get that part covered too.
Edit: I want season 2 to still be about the Forresters, though. I've bonded with the characters, I'm familiar with the setting. Everything leading up to the main conflict- the war between the Whitehills and the Forresters- has been taken care of. War has broken out. I don't want that to be over in one episode. I feel like I've just gotten past the introductory phase of the story, now I'm ready for the main plot.
Well, firstly, female protagonists DON'T outnumber men in the walking dead - there are 4 men (Lee, Russel, Vince, Wyatt), and 4 women (Clem, Shel, Bonnie, Michonne).
Secondly in fiction, when there is a group of protagonists taken at the same time, it's exceedingly rare for women to outnumber men.
In protagonist groups of three usually it's one woman and two men ala Harry Potter, in groups of 5 its normally 3 men and 2 women ala 400 days.
Sometimes you get 3 women and 2 men (Founders of the inquisition in Dragon Age 3), or 2 women and 1 man (Protagonists in Dreamfall chapters), but I've never seen 4 women and 1 man before. It's fairly uncommon.
Taking this into account, and considering Tthe Game of Thrones Telltale staff had even fewer female proitagonists than the xclassic 3 men 2 women scheme, I can't see them completely reversing it.
Maybe I'm wrong and there will be 4 women and one man, but I'd bet anything I own that there won't be.
I'm not saying Telltale should be forced to do anything - I'm saying I think it's far more unlikely that they'd have 4 women and a man than four men and a woman.
She's also just a plot device to allow us to have some interaction with all 5 protagonists at the same time - if she was a full protagonists she would have been advertised and we'd have seen her face on the board.
Regardless, even if we do take her as a full protagonists along the likes of Lee, she is controlled for 5 minutes, which is still about equal in terms of how much time is dedicated to playing as each sex.
Furtyhermore, I'm not saying it's unlikely telltale will devote 53% of playable time to women or anything like that - I'm saying it's unlikely telltale will devote 80% of playable time to women, as would be the case with 4 female protagonists and 1 male.
I don't think we'll get a new playable character for just one episode... But if that happened I would like to see it happen with Beshka... She could be sent to save Ryon with her slave fighting rogue skill... Because taht way if she gets caught the Forrester can deny they knew her... But I'm guessing that won't happen... Telltale killed one of the older brothers because theyw anted a really f*cked up decision to shock evryone and because basically you would be playing with two differetn charatcers in the same storyline and they wouldn't do that.

I'd actually would like to play as Torrhen Whitehill, since he is the heir of Ludd, and maybe we'd see a player view from someone who works under the Boltons. I'd like the continuation of Asher/Rodrik. Maybe a new character in the Eyrie? Gared, (though I don't think he'll live). I see Malcolm becoming a character. Talia is probably gonna survive.
So in this order:
1: Torrhen Whitehill
2: Asher
3: Talia
4: Gared
5: Malcolm
6: Eyrie Character
Torrhen and Ebbert Whitehill. The first book in the GoT series had too much of one family (Starks) and I found it was drastically improved (don't get me wrong, it was still great) by adding rival pov's (Jaime and Cersei, while Tyrion began to take action against the Starks).
Plus it would make up for the mistake of making Ludd and Gryff generic villains with no redeemable qualities. Ebbert would give us a new location (Oldtown) and it'd just be nice if Torrhen and Ebbert were decent human beings. Unfortunately you'd have a lot of players that would play Torrhen as incompetent to give their Forresters an edge ("hur git rekt witehils Forresters ftw")
I mean, they could fix that too by simply not having them be enemies.
It would be great if Torrhen was actually a decent person that legitimately could have wanted an alliance, and saw the Forresters as monsters that murdered his family and took their Ironwood (provided we kill Ludd and/or Gryff).

I would love to play as Elissa and Talia. I think that the playable characters should only be the Forresters, you know. They're the center of the story.
From those options Beskha is the only one, but in general it would be Asher. Gared would not be too bad either - now he appears as a lost puppy, I'd love for him to find his manhood somewhere.

See this for the 'two guys and a girl' trope/cliche: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TwoGuysAndAGirl
See this for information on tropes relating to groups of 5 protagonists, almost always having more men than women: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/FiveManBand
I'm not saying Telltale should be forced to do anything - I'm saying I think it's far more unlikely that they'd have 4 women and a man than four men and a woman.
Does Tavia really count as a protagonist? She's much more of an antagonist.
She's also just a plot device to allow us to have some interaction with all 5 protagonists at the same time - if she was a full protagonists she would have been advertised and we'd have seen her face on the board.

I want it to be Malcolm now that the alliance was formed with the Targaryians
I can already see the choices:
[Be an asshole and ruin everything]
[Be an asshole and ruin everything]
[Be an asshole and ruin everything]
[Hide behind plot armour]
I never considered that before. But oh my gods yes!
Malcolm for sure.

That's my Theory
Really Ramsay is just misunderstood
BULL-SHIT
no because Sylvi is Malcolm in disguise.
Gared would hate that! haha
This person is messed up.
It's probably going to be Malcom so that we can keep up with the events of Danny.
Its more we need locations
Ironrath
King landing
Essos
Im hoping we keep mira, being one of marge's handmaidens in season 5 could be fun
Hopefully some new locations
Anyway
I'd like
Malcolm
Gywn
The "lord" should live but be an npc and have little effect
Cotter's mother is actually Ludd Whitehill.
Out of that list I would say Malcolm and Gwyn would be my top picks for new playable characters
I'd actually would like to play as Torrhen Whitehill, since he is the heir of Ludd, and maybe we'd see a player view from someone who works under the Boltons. I'd like the continuation of Asher/Rodrik. Maybe a new character in the Eyrie? Gared, (though I don't think he'll live). I see Malcolm becoming a character. Talia is probably gonna survive.
So in this order:
1: Torrhen Whitehill
2: Asher
3: Talia
4: Gared
5: Malcolm
6: Eyrie Character
I would be more pleased if they don't add another but keep the bro alive
It will be like the same work as to add another
But if I get to chose ........ Malcolm
Malcolm
Mira
Taila
Gared
Ryon and other.
Hell no Ryon, i hope gwyn
I don't think Ryon will be an option. He is way too young.
Malcolm would be great! Also Talia...
Sylvi! I want to be a wildling so badly! Also Beskha because she rules.
Hell no for both of them!

It would be awesome if you can play as Talia and as Malcolm in season 2
From those options Beskha is the only one, but in general it would be Asher. Gared would not be too bad either - now he appears as a lost puppy, I'd love for him to find his manhood somewhere.
The best options for me seem to be Malcolm and Norren, and possibly a Whitehill perspective at Oldtown.
