Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What are the names of Ned Stark's deceased brother and sister?

Answer: Lyanna and Brandon

Lyanna and Brandon Stark were Ned's brother and sister. Lyanna was to marry Robert of House Baratheon, but when she died he married Cersei Lannister; Brandon Stark was to marry Catelyn of House Tully, but when he died Catelyn married Ned in his stead.
2. How many dragons does House Targaryen believe came from the moon?

Answer: one thousand thousand

The coat of arms of the House of Targaryen features a red dragon with three fire-breathing heads on a black background. The motto is Fire and Blood.
3. Who was House Lannister's ancestor, born in the Age of Heroes?

Answer: Lann the Clever

Lann the Clever, also known as the Trickster, stole Casterly Rock from the Casterlys using nothing but his own wits.
4. Who was Protector of the Vale, Warden of the East, Hand of the King and Husband of Lysa Tully before his death at the hands of Cersei Lannister?

Answer: Jon Arryn

Jon Arryn was also the childhood mentor of both Eddard Stark and Robert Baratheon in addition to holding all the above titles, before Cersei Lannister poisoned him with Tears of Lys.
5. What genetic trait has passed on from generation to generation in the Baratheon Family?

Answer: Black curly hair

It is this fact that led both Jon Arryn and Ned Stark to question why Joffrey Baratheon was born with such fair hair, inevitably coming to the conclusion that he was not Robert's son and heir, but Jaime Lannister's.
6. How many children has Ned Stark fathered?

Answer: six

Although Jon Snow, his bastard son, was not born of Catelyn Stark, and was not a rightful heir, he is still a son of Ned Stark. The five legitimate children are Robb, Sansa, Arya, Bran and Rickon.
7. What is the name of the prostitute whose maidenhead Tyrion Lannister was falsely led (by his brother Jaime and his father Tywin) to believe he took?

Answer: Tysha

Tysha was a girl no more than a year older than Tyrion. He thought her of simple mind and upbringing when he bedded her, only to later find out she was a prostitute and a pawn used in a scheme devised by his brother and father.
8. How many known and named bastards did the drunken fool King Robert Baratheon I father?

Answer: Four (Gendry, Edric Storm, Mya Stone and Barra)

King Robert of House Baratheon I had many more, possibly around twenty, bastards with different women. He had no children with his wife, Cersei Lannister - it was a marriage of state, not of love, and both of them constantly cheated on each other.
9. What were Lord Jon Arryn's final words as he lay on his deathbed, and to whom were they spoken?

Answer: "The seed is strong", to Lysa Tully

"The seed is strong" was originally believed to refer to his son Robert Arryn, but later Eddard Stark realised he meant the Lannister's purebred child Joffrey.
10. What would Viserys III, brother of Daenarys and son of Aerys II the Mad King, say his sister ought not wake for her own good?

Answer: The Dragon

Whenever his sister Daenarys would anger him in some shape or form he would strike her for, in his words, "Waking the Dragon". Viserys, however, was not the true dragon, seeing how he was burnt alive; Daenarys was.
