Jadzia, isn’t that a Eastern European (Polish?) name?

Yeah, it's Star Trek. Alien is obvious, Scientist likely (I don't remember her role on the station exactly.) But Alien + Scientist would be more directly and wider known by cluing Spock, so the third word has to relate to Jadzia herself somehow, and yes Ichabod's guess of Phoenix for her (sort-of) reincarnation does make a lot of sense.
Flipping it around as I always do, if you were looking to clue Alien + Scientist + Phoenix, Jadzia is exactly how you would do that if you knew the character at all.
Exactly what I thought, Alien, Scientist, Phoenix.

I had originally thought MOLE for the third word, as a pattern of large "freckles" on the skin was a distinctive part of the character's appearance - and technically Dax was the part that got reborn, not Jadzia. But I may have been over-thinking that last bit.

TYRION Lannister - Dwarf is the obvious one here. Bolt is likely, since he killed his father with a crossbow BOLT.
Watch for night's watch? Crown is more tenuous. Don't see how anything else works.

DANCE also works (book 5 A Dance with Dragons; and if you re-read book 1 A Game of Thrones, he actually does do a silly dance early on), and is better than either WATCH or CROWN. edit: MINT is also decent, as his role of Master of Coin. Maybe MOLE, as he deals with Varys a lot. But this is bad for TYRION 3, which has to be DWARF BOLT DANCE if Thrawn knows the books. It's possible he only knows the TV show, so it's best to lead with DWARF BOLT and only take DANCE third.
I have no idea. I didn't know that Candyland was a board game either. Good round to be sitting out ... back to the SF and Fantasy characters please!

I knew Candyland was a board game but never heard of King Candy. Turns out I played the game before that version of the game came out.
Curious to see if Superdeath was clueing King or Play with that one.
