Dorkstar~ should be played by Sephiroth.

Literally the lovely play station 1 rendering.

Because Oberyn being a bald ripoff of Inigo Montoya is only slightly less obvious than Dorkstar~ being a ripoff of Sephiroth. And I never even played those god drat games.

^^^Arthur "Sword of the Morning" Dayne.

Not the Bad Thread's beloved ~~~~~DARKSTAR~~~~~~


It's one of those "who can beat who" things.

It's generally regarded that the God Tier of swordsmen is SotM Dayne, Barristan, Eddard*, Jaime, and some others.

(*theorized, but him and Howland Reed threw down Dayne and two other kingsguard, and regular grunt troops, and generally just mowed people down without much effort all through Bob's Rebellion)

Ned mentions that Dayne and Barristan were his idols as swordsmen. So it's assumed even with Ned/Howland in the god tier, it took both to bring down Dayne.

So, using nerd logic, Dayne must have been the best ever.

I kinda figured that Ned was always just kinda above-average, and just kinda lucked into surviving because five other, better swordsmen were gave their lives for his. Plus Howland Reed, 5'0" Retiarius (maybe?)warg.

I thought Rhaegar was Sephiroth. He had long stupid white hair before Sephiroth made it a requirement in every anime ever. And I'm p sure at some point Rhaegar fought a spikey-haired blonde guy with a cartoonishly giant sword while they cut themselves listening to Mindless Self Indulgence.

But DARKSTAR~ has that black hair streak and is also all moody and stuff.

Rhaegar is just a pretty boy that plays a harp and has sex with Stark women.

A Lightbringer, not the Lightbringer. I'm operating under the assumption now that prophecies of that nature are as garbled and unrelated to actual events as stories and songs are to the events that inspired them. The Azor Ahai story and prophecy is about people discovering that swords made out of Valyrian steel can kill the Others. The idea of one person wielding one sword and turning back a whole army is absurd.

Maybe that's why noone can forge Valyrian steel anymore–not because some super secret forging knowledge was lost during the Doom, but because you need to quench the steel with blood sacrifice.

Huh.

He just reforged what he was given. He didn't make new Valyrian steel.

Reforge isn't the same as forge. If it had been, Tywin wouldn't have needed ice in the first place.

Also, Jon Stargayen foreshadows more sibling fondling.

Given the bits and pieces we've learned of Valyria it wouldn't surprise me if they lined up slaves to stab them with their still hot blades from the forge.

Midnight- posted:

He spoke of "knowing the spells" involving reforging Valyrian steel. Not everyone can just do it.

Also there must be some magic component to it. If it was just folding the metal over and over it would lose its special qualities when it was broken down and re-forged, and a sword that never loses its edge, even if you bang it on rocks because you don't want to chop off the cute redhead's head, is impossible.

Zombie-Jon fondling his younger aunt, Dany is just... I don't even know. Seeing as how Targs regularly had siblings loving each other and Jaime and Cersei doing it regularly, somehow necrophilia+incest doesn't even faze me at this point.

gently caress you GRRM. You've basically broken me so bad that when I see incest in books now, I'm just going to go "meh." gently caress you so much. I should be grossed out and reviled, but nope. Your shitdick has been shoved so far down my throat that I don't even give a gently caress anymore.

Ah I actually meant Darkstar. I guess having read his wiki character page I can kinda see the whole anime hair thing pulling people in but I maintain he is possibly one of the least memorable characters in the books.

He did cut off a little girl's ear, but its not like anyone gives a poo poo about Myrcella either way really is it.

You all think you're so smart calling out the future Jon/Dany incest, but that's just a red herring. Jon is going to marry Sansa. GRRM knows this, I have seen it in his eyes.

Also Sam will marry her at some point, to complete the cycle of GRRM self inserts lying with her. Three heads of the dragon.

Also, has the series shown any of the crazy rainbow hair characters yet?

I seriously cannot wait to see Daario et al come on screen with neon blue and purple hair like pencil-top trolls to see what the audience of this otherwise muted medieval setting make of it.

If you pay attention the description of the Mereen chapters, it's obvious that GRRM is loving with us. Everything is so thoroughly ridiculous. Sculpting your hair into horns is one thing, but sculpting said hair into a god drat naked lady or a griffon is quite another. Then you're got the wildly colored hair and an army of slaves that fight on loving stilts.

It's like those passages in American Psycho where if you pay attention to the tedious descriptions of clothing and actually know what the articles of clothing described look like, everyone is dressing like a multicolored clown.
