Game of Thrones impressions by Steve Love
I am literally weeping with laughter. I kept thinking, “This is the best one,” BUT THEN THE NEXT ONE WOULD COME UP. OH MY GAWD. For some reason, the tears started rolling during the Ser Davos one. He just goes so fast! FUCKING YES. ALL THE AWARDS.
CRYING OVER THIS

The White Book Project that I think would be cool
So I think a good place to start would be with the book characters themselves. It’s probably good to practice the form a few times before taking requests.
So the general form is that top left there’s the family shied, and bottom right there’s the white shield of the Kingsguard. Between those are the knights name and deeds.
Ser Barristan Selmy
His family shield
The actual text is in A Storm of Swords page 914-915. Easy enough
Ser Jaime Lannister
Family shield
His text is in same book, page 915-916 and 1009-1010.
Those are the two characters whose text are in the books, so might as well start with them.
Seriously, Photoshoppers/artists/interested folks contact me!! I’m totally willing to find shields from the wiki and write the text if you want to just put it all together. Pleeeeeease…

It was a dark and stormy knight...: Religions in ASOIAF →
Valar DohaerisThis series has a strange thing going on with religion. There are many, but the three main ones seem to the the Seven, the old gods, and the Lord of Light.
Their religious affiliation is an issue when it comes to loyalty and such, but they aren’t waging wars specifically over religion, it’s over…
I think the problem with the New Gods is that it’s a manmade religion where they worship a sort of elevated idea of people (The Maid, the Warrior, The Father etc.). People in general play a large role in this religion and to me, the religon as a whole has done nothing to prove it’s truth, so to say. Like I said, it’s completely fabricated by men. (Also, remember that a ‘crusades’ of sort had already happened with the arrival of the Andals and the introduction of their ‘new’ gods).
Anyway, my point was that the only religion that has shown itself to be true is the Old Gods. I think you’re underestimating the power of the Old Gods; their weirwood trees have their own particular gifts and I think the point GRRM was trying to make is that ‘God’ should be experienced through Nature rather than anything else (i.e. a Septon). I think their religion is simple and beautiful, and I like how all the power has been taken from people and given to nature, as seen in their wedding ceremonies where the trees play the role of a ‘priest’).
But you’re right, it seems the Red God has brought people back from the dead, but then I think about Qyburn and how he brought a certain someone to life without the aid of the Red God which leads me to think it may have nothing to do with their religion and more to do with some kind of magic- or science, though I highly doubt the people of Westeros knew something we don’t. I don’t know.
If all else fails, let’s all just subscribe to the Many-Faced God. There’s a truth in death nobody can deny. Valar Morghulis.

Religions in ASOIAF
This series has a strange thing going on with religion. There are many, but the three main ones seem to the the Seven, the old gods, and the Lord of Light.
Their religious affiliation is an issue when it comes to loyalty and such, but they aren’t waging wars specifically over religion, it’s over political power. They don’t seem to have Crusades or anything similar to that.
There are also people that seem to believe in a mix of religions, and there are those that switch around a lot. It doesn’t seem like people dislike those that switch, they are free to do so as they choose.
In short, their attitude towards religion is really nothing like what it is in real life.
As far as which religion is right in this universe, I think it may be the Lord of Light. He has the most proof to his faith and keeps bringing people back from the dead and everything. I think the old gods also play a part here too, because Jon says that Ghost “belongs to the old gods”. Maybe certain parts of the world are controlled by certain gods? Ancient creatures like the direwolves get the old gods, and the newer ones like people have the Lord of Light. But if I’m going to go with this idea, then the Seven could come in somewhere as well.
I haven’t read all the books yet, so this could be completely wrong, but it’s my opinion on this aspect so far.
