  1. Yes? Minor noble houses. Not someone like the Pooles. And not a bastard, unless legitimized
  2. What is meant by "the South" in Westeros. Not the North.
  3. His hotness is offset by his Madonna/whore complex and how much of a pain in the a** he would be if we ever had sex, unless it was some AU where he didn't have an oath of celibacy.
  4. Oh I can help it with Criston... Marry Jaime Put Theon out of his misery (I wouldn't want to bang him at any point, pre-Reek he was too annoying, and after that, well) Bang Criston and then kill him (he'd just be really annoying after that) Masters of whispers: Varys Tyanna of the Tower Mysaria
  5. You're back You're back! Single character? (Not a group of characters)
  6. This is not so much an error as a... uh, very creative interpretation of the text, shall I say? But the Alys Rivers article really bothers me (and even more so now that so many in the HotD fandom are obviously using the wiki as their source of information rather than the books). The "Origin" part starts with: This is a very weird statement that isn't supported by anything in Fire & Blood. This is what Maester Gyldayn (who hates Alys' guts ) writes: At other places, this is what he says about her age: and Nowhere is it said that she "claimed to be" a bastard of House Strong, or that anyone doubted that and thought she was lying, which the Wiki article implies. (It also makes no sense. People in Harrenhal, including the Strongs, would know if she was a bastard of one of the Strongs. So who would she be falsely 'claiming' that to? Aemond? Why? To try to make him hate her and possibly want her dead?) "Her name suggests bastard birth" suggests that Gyldayn simply doesn't have a lot of info - surprise, surprise, no one was interested in a lowborn wet nurse from Harrenhal before she became involved with a Targaryen prince. "Her origins are shrouded in mystery" is also a questionable statement. It seems to be only based on Gyldayn's over-dramatic phrasing "we know little about her father", but then he says both Munken and Eustace, 2 of his 3 sources, say her father was Lyonel Strong. The only 'dispute' about her origin is by Mushroom. And even Mushroom, who has a wild rumor as usual, just makes her a generation older (60+), and never says that she wasn't a daughter of one of the Strongs. Even if we believe Mushroom rather than the others (and believe that a 60+ woman had a successful pregnancy... but OK, let's say Mushroom was right and the other two wrong), that would still only make it impossible for Lyonel to be her father and instead likely that herfather was another Strong (Lyonel's father or uncle etc.) She was a servant in Harrenhal, so her mother was likely smallfolk and it's hardly surprising that her name is not known. By the same logic, we could say that pretty much every Westerosi bastard's origin (aside from those whose both parents were highborn, like the Great Bastards or Edric Storm), and almost every common born person's origin is "shrouded in mystery". Mya Stone's origin, shrouded in mystery! They say Robert fathered her in Vale as a young man, but we don't know who her mother is. Falia Flowers, we don't know who her mother was, so her origin is shrouded in mystery! etc. It doesn't stop here - the main info has this: ) I dan see why spouse (allegedly), this can be justified because the people in-universe didn't believe Alys when she said she was Aemond's widow and that their son was trueborn. But "son (allegedly)"? Not even Gyldayn or other people in-universe doubted that she had a son with Aemond. She was pregnant when Sabitha Frey took her captive, she was heavily pregnant during the battle above the God's Eye, and then she is with her son in Harrenhal when the regents' men come: Even Ser Regis didn't doubt that the boy was Alys' son with Aemond, but the article is written as if this is some huge controversy. It's almost as if the article was written by a maester from 133 AC who thought the others were just not misogynistic and classist enough and didn't hate Alys enough, so let's also accuse her of being a liar about everything. If I had an account (but getting one seems really difficult), I would remove this completely: "Alys's origins are shrouded in mystery, and it is unclear if she was ever a formally acknowledged bastard or simply claimed to be one. " as well as the "allegedly" and just leave "Stillborn children - Son".
  7. Becazse she is not just mentioned, she is on page, with actual dialogue and scenes, in The Sworn Sword. (She is mentioned in TWOAIF though)
  8. F*ck Loreza. Her wiki pic looks hot and kind of has a masculine energy. Marry Rhaella. We will be friends Kill Joanna, because I'm suspicious of anyone loved by Tywin Next: Commoners who married (or may have married) Targaryen princes: Alys Rivers Sara Snow Jenny of Oldstones
  9. Yes, and I've already answered that: Character Not a group of characters Human Alive after Aegon's Conquest Not a Targaryen or married to a Targaryen From a noble house From the Reach Not alive during the 5 books (or at least it would be very surprising) Alive before Robert's Rebellion Dead before Robert's Rebellion (probably) Not male Not a Tyrell or married to a Tyrell Not a Hightower Not a Redwyne Not alive before Aegon's Conquest Not alive during the Dance of the Dragons 'Mentioned a lot' (understatement) Not from a song or a legend Not from a major house in the Reach (Tyrell, Hightower, Fossoway, Redwyne, Florent, Tarly) Originally from the Reach Alive during Blackfyre rebellions Alive during the 1st and 2nd Blackfyre rebellion Not from House Butterwell Not from House Ball Not from House Oakheart Mentioned in some of the following and not others: the five books, supplementary material (Fire and Blood, The World of Ice and Fire, Dunk and Egg, The Ice Dragon)
  10. Not from House Oakheart either. There is something important about her as a character I've hinted that you still haven't figured out.
