hahahah I read that part too!  Apparently the book was originally Twilight fan fiction......WOW.

hahah also I think "Snowsqueen Icedragon" is like a squire or a hedge knight on here somewhere, maybe she has a westeros.org account?  Let's get on it internet!

Snowsqueen Icedragon sounds like a fantastic drag name.

Short of a direwolf, I'd have to go with a bastard sword, a hatchet/smaller axe, and a bunch of knives. You can never have too many knives. And while I'm at it I want dope ass cloak too.

I'd have to go with the traditional sword and shield.
I'm left handed though so in a fight that would be an advantage, since there are so few who fight lefthanded and lefthanded always fight against right handed.

A couple options for me.....

1.) Hoplite (round) shield. With a spear, and sword (in between short sword and long sword) on my belt.
2.) Longsword in right hand, short sword in the other.
-Both scenarios I'll have a quiver and bow on my back

Horseback I'd have a spiked mace.

All the above that King Doug just mentioned- plus my own addition:

The "Boomstick," and my feminine stuff.

The heaviest Warhammer I could swing during extended combat in my right hand,  and a stout shield on my left arm.

This is easy:

Lightbringer.  I mean who doesn't want to use a sword with flames coming out of it?

Apparently it could cause 120 damage per second, with an instant mana burn and an enchantment that boosts its stamina +80. But the sword was considered to be too powerful for anyone to possess. So it was removed from the game and stored on a one-gig flash drive. But it was foretold that one day, players who could wield the sword might reveal themselves.

Who foretold this prophecy?

Soltzman. He's an accountant.

Castle forged longsword. Would be hard to get my hands on some Valyrian steel.

Except from William Duke of France's battle with Hereward:

Quote

William The Conquerer next found a poor old woman who was supposed to be a witch. He built a wooden tower, placed it on wheels, and with the witch inside, pushed it along the road, at the head of the Norman army. This poor old woman was meant to cast a spell over the English soldiers, so that they would not be able to fight any more. Of course she could really do them no harm, and Hereward and his men captured the tower and burned it up, witch and all. Again William had failed.

I would do what Billy the Conquerer did, except with Cersei on the wooden tower, flashing the enemy army.  It was what the witch did as well, to hear tell of William's battle from some.  Cersei has the much-lauded Vortex of Doom, however, so I would win.

Dragon bone long bow, & Lightbringer for when things got up close and personal, or Ice assuming I'm not the AA, but how could anyone assume otherwise?
