Any thoughts on the fact that the prologue & epilogue POVs up until ADWD are largely defined by their powerlessness, while ADWD features a powerful skinchanger who acts like a grotesque parody of the worst of the Westerosi aristocracy and the King Regent, nominally the most powerful man in the Seven Kingdoms?

I wouldn’t call Varamyr in the Prologue of ADWD as a powerful figure as a figure who has been brought low, desperately scrabbling to avoid true death and failing.
