      Challenging Joffrey's right to be king. Through a series of events, Ned Stark discovers that Joffrey and his siblings are not the offspring of Robert Baratheon.

In his attempt to use this information, Ned is betrayed and is executed for treason.

    Which position on the king's small council is his closest adviser and has the power to make decisions in the king's absence?"Game of Thrones" - General Information

      Hand of the King. In the first two seasons, there are three characters to hold this position. The first is Lord Jon Arryn who dies in the first episode. King Robert then appoints Lord Eddard Stark. Stark is later executed as ordered by King Joffrey. Joffrey chooses his grandfather Lord Tywin Lannister, but he is too involved in fighting the Starks and sends his dwarf-son Tyrion to act in his place.

    By what name do the Seven Kingdoms refer to the Free Folk who live in north beyond the Wall?"Game of Thrones" - General Information

      wildlings. The Free Folk live on the continent of Westeros, but beyond the realm of the Seven Kingdoms. As their name suggests, they consider themselves free from political authority and claims to the land.

    What is the name of Arya's Stark's sword?"Game of Thrones" - General Information

      Needle. Arya Stark is the daughter of Lord Eddard and Lady Catelyn Stark. The sword is a gift from her half-brother Jon Snow.

    Aside from being Master of Coin and a member of the King's Small Council, the character of Peter "Littlefinger" Baelish from King's Landing also runs what kind of business?"Game of Thrones" - General Information

      brothel. Littlefinger spies on patrons of his brothel in order to gain useful information against possible political rivals. As Master of the Coin, he oversees the treasury.

    In 2011, which actor who plays Tyrion Lannister, won the Golden Globe award for Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role in a Series?"Game of Thrones" - General Information

      Peter Dinklage. Dinklage may be small in stature, but he wields power and commands respect in his role of Tyrion Lannister, the Hand of the King. However, Tyrion is greatly disliked by his father Tywin Lannister because his wife died giving birth to the dwarf-sized son. His sister Cersei Lannister Baratheon despises him for the same reason. Tyrion must bear being called names such as "The Imp" and "Halfman".

    At the end of season 2, Joffrey Baratheon sits on the Iron Throne, but which Baratheon is actually the rightful king?"Game of Thrones" - General Information

Robert's widow Cersei placed her fifteen year-old son Joffrey on the throne, but Joffrey was not Robert's biological heir, a fact that Cersei strove to keep secret. Since King Robert had no true heirs, Stannis should be the rightful heir to the Iron Throne. Stannis said, "The Iron Throne is mine by right. All those that deny that are my foes."
