Re: aSoIaF Trivia Game

What about Ser Osmund Kettleblack? Did he fight or just guard Cersei? I might also mention that Ser Loras Tyrell, a future White Cloak, also fought in that battle.

Was Kettleblack Kingsguard at Blackwater though? I think he was inducted after the battle.

Re: aSoIaF Trivia Game

No, I do think Kettleblack was a Kingsguard at that stage, but he was just guarding Cersei from memory. I guess it depends on your definition of 'fought'....

Re: aSoIaF Trivia Game

Kettleblack did not fight truly, and Loras was not a member at the time. I am not sure if The Imp gets it for finishing the list, or Culhwch for getting the most...

Re: aSoIaF Trivia Game

I'll defer to the Imp for completing the list.

Re: aSoIaF Trivia Game

OK, we'll focus on death with this one.

What caused the death of each of the following

Shae

Khal Drogo

Maester Cressen

Gregor Clegane

Merrett Frey

Tywin Lannister

Jon Arryn

be specific. Who, what, when, where and how if appropriate. These really should be cake

Re: aSoIaF Trivia Game

Well, Gregor's a trick question, isn't he, because he's not actually dead. And didn't Mirri Maz Dur (sp?) have something to do with Drogo's death?

In my recollection the answer to Khal Drogo is wrong. I didn't pose Gregor as a trick question, but I do want more specificty in regard to the asnwer.

Actually, now that i think of it, I guess it was really the Drogo part that is the trick part, so figure out WHY it's a trick question, then give the answer

How much more? He's not dead, Qyburn is keeping him alive through arcane means.

Dany smothered him after Mirri brought him back from the brink of death, but only as a vegetable. And the Dothraki don't like vegetables.

Dany smothering him was the answer I was looking for. I loved the irony of that happening.

I was looking for the kind of poison Prince Oberyn used on his speartip
