Tywin, when did you post this? Forty-eight hours ago?!?! I swear it did not show up on my browser as seeing action.... My apologies. Of course, you got them all right. I was at least hoping to get someone to guess that Terrence Toyne killed Simon Toyne.

And for everyone else, most of these notes came from one chapter in AFFC where Jaime talks to Loras about the history of the Kingsguard... obviously Tywin remembered the chapter well. And next time, I'll tone it down a bit... I tend to post more difficult questions when drinking bourbon.

[Tywin]

Remembered? I had to research it. Well worth the effort, I ended up browsing through pages of kingsguard stuff on the wiki for at least an hour after finding the answers that I didn't know.

I have the same problem all the time. I now try to remember to check the threads where I might have an open question, even if I don't see "activity" on the title on the page. My browser is IE. I really need to make the switchover to Crhome already.

Who was the 13th Commander of the Night's Watch, and why is he famous?

[Stribog]

Famous Night's King, tried to use Night's Watch power in arms to conquer the North and Lands beyond the Wall. Remember him because GRRM made obvious connection between No 13 and first "evil" Lord Commander of the Watch.

[Tywin]

The Night's King it is. Also famous for falling in love with a woman "with skin as white as the moon and eyes like blue stars...her skin was cold as ice." who he brought back to the Night Fort to rule with as his queen.

[Stribog]

Well, guess I'm not the romantic type, conquering part stuck in my memory
