Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. At the start of the episode, three men on horseback are riding through a tunnel to the "Land of Always Winter". One finds bodies mangled and cut in half. When the other two come to the site, the bodies are gone and two of the men are killed. What kills the men?

Answer: The White Walkers

The White Walkers are ancient demons that live in "The Land of Always Winter". They've been asleep under the snow for 1,000 years and are now beginning to stir. The people of the continent of Westeros have erected a gargantuan wall of ice to keep the White Walkers in the Winter Lands.
2. Winterfell is the castle home of Lord Eddard "Ned" Stark. He watches his 10-year old son Bran practicing archery. Ned is called away by his Commander of Arms because they've captured a deserter. Can you name the Commander of Arms?

Answer: Ser Rodrick Cassel

Ser Rodrick is the Commander of Arms for Ned Stark and his wife Lady Catelyn Stark. He informs Ned that they've captured a deserter from Castle Black, men who've "Taken the Black" to defend the lands from invaders from the north.
3. When the deserter is captured, Ned insists that Bran accompany them since he's in line to be lord of House Stark. The deserter mumbles that he's seen the White Walkers and is promptly beheaded by Ned. What is the name of Ned's sword?

Answer: Ice

Ice is Ned's sword, Needle belongs to his daughter Arya and of course Sting was used in 'Lord of the Rings'. Ned's line to Bran: "He who passes the Sentence should swing the Sword".
4. After the execution of the deserter, Bran is accompanied by his older brother Robb, his half-brother Jon Snow and one other of House Stark, Ned's ward. Who is Ned's ward?

Answer: Theon Greyjoy

Theon Greyjoy is from the Iron Islands his family have ruled for three hundred years. He has been Ned's ward since he was 8-years old and is a sort of surrogate son to Ned.
5. On the way back to Winterfell, the party encounters several small animals whelping by the corpse of their dead mother. What are these creatures?

Answer: Direwolves

Direwolves are considered by many as freaks since they grow much larger than regular wolves. The five pups are taken back to Winterfell as Bran doesn't want them killed. They also find a sixth, an albino cub given to Jon to raise. They're given to the Stark offspring: Grey Wind to Robb, Lady to Sansa, Nymeria to Arya, Summer to Bran, Shaggydog"to Rickon and lastly Ghost to Jon.
6. In Pentos across the Narrow Sea is Viserys Targaryen. He believes that he is the rightful heir to the Seven Kingdoms and is to sit on the Iron Throne as did his father Aryes Targaryen who was known as what nickname?

Answer: The Mad King

Aryes Targaryen was known as "The Mad King" and had the Iron Throne usurped by Robert Baratheon who is now the king of Westeros and ruler of the Seven Kingdoms.
7. Visery's sister Daenerys, a beautiful white haired girl of eighteen, is supposed to wed the leader of a tribe of Nomads that are to be promised to Viserys as they have over 40,000 warriors. Can you name the leader?

Answer: Khal Drogo

Khal Drogo ("Khal" means king) is the current leader of the Dothraki the Horselords. They hail from Vaes Dothrak and never stay in one place for long when away from home. The top Dothraki warriors have long braided hair and when they lose in battle, their braids are cut off to show their shame.

The Dothraki have also never left their homelands because they fear water their horses don't drink.
8. Maester Illyrio tells Viserys, "A Dothraki _____ without at least three deaths is considered a dull affair." What is missing from that line?

Answer: Wedding

"Wedding" goes into that blank. Dany has been wed to Khal Drogo and now she is to be "Khaleesi" or Queen.
9. When King Robert Baratheon arrives at Winterfell, he has come to proclaim a title upon Ned and to come back with him to "King's Landing". What is the honourable title Robert bestows upon Ned?

Answer: The Hand of the King

"The Hand of the King" is basically that to the king. Ned is to oversee certain meetings with Robert's council while he is away.
10. When expert climber Bran is climbing one of the high towers of Winterfell, he happens upon two people coupling. He is seen by the couple and is pushed out the window by the man who was with the woman. Can you recall this man's name?

Answer: Jaime Lannister

Bran sees Jaime with his sister Queen Cersei, who is King Robert's wife. Bran reveals his age to Jaime and is noted as quite the climber. Before Jaime pushes poor Bran out the window, he looks at his sister and says, "The things I do for love."
