I must read the work of George R. R. Martin that this meme is based on.



Your Score: House Tyrell


45% Dominant, 63% Extroverted, 45% Trustworthy



Vivacious. Gregarious. Dangerous. Slightly gay. Not to be trusted, you are of House Tyrell.

You are of a more submissive personality, though this is not to say that you are unambitious. On the contrary, you know that the spotlight brings more than glory. Unwilling to be saddled with the accusations and petty treacheries of court life, you are content to let someone else hold the reigns of the empire. You’re in the thick of it, though; no one makes a move that you haven’t anticipated. Those headstrong types are so easy to control.

You are also extroverted, which means that no matter how subtly you move your hand, everyone knows that you’re a player--a major one. Your sociability makes you a boon to the smallfolk, though in truth they love a façade. Your god-given talents will often excuse you from criticism, but jealousy will follow you like a dog wherever you go.

You are definitely untrustworthy. Behind you beaming smiles and polite laughter lurks the most dangerous kind of enemy: a charismatic one. You’re opportunistic, and all the more treacherous for your subtlety. An efficient political machine, you are always evaluating yourself as well as your surroundings. There’s no room for error in your household or yourself, and you’ll cut off the hand that offends you.

Representative characters include: Margery Tyrell, Loras Tyrell, and Olenna Redwyne.

Similar Houses: Baratheon, Frey, Tully

Opposite House: Lannister

Seat: Highgarden

When playing the game of thrones, you play it with style.

YES!! A Game of Thrones *rules* and you will *love* it. I love that you independently are attracted to it... it is *so* good (I am halfway through the books of which, so far, there are four), and ...anyway, yeah, basically this just means you are awesome and i love you and you should Martin. :-) I miss you. A ton.

It's an excellent series, but there are sooooooooo many characters. No, seriously. You no sooner get attached to one POV character than they're, like, dead, or on the opposite end of the continent from your new POV character. And Martin always cuts away at the most dramatic possible moment, so it's like:

TEXT: All of darling w00bie Jon's companions had fallen in suitably gruesome and suspense-building ways. He was alone in the ice and snow, clutching his sword as the last torches went out. And then the ice zombies attacked!
READER: OMG!
TEXT: Meanwhile, back in the capital city, crazy military intrigue and incestuous sex was going down.
READER: But...wait! What happened to my darling w00bie Jon!? With the ice zombies!? And the...!?
TEXT: Intrigue! And sex!
READER: Oooh. Okay...
TEXT: And then there's this sorta quasi-Bedouin tribe, right, on another continent. And hey, dragons!
READER: Will you for God's sake just tell me WTF is going on?
TEXT: I'm getting to that. Eventually.
READER: *twitches*
TEXT: Also, for one of the books? I'm going to cut out half of the characters COMPLETELY, and pick them up in the next volume. So, like, if you wanted to know if any of them survived, or whatever, you're going to have to wait 800 pages and two years for the next book.
READER: *cries*

Uh oh. I mean, that SOUNDS like fun, but I AM the sort that got angry at Phillip Pullman for having an uber cliff hanger to the Subtle Knife...and then taking FOREVER to publish the third book. Or, at least it felt like forever. And then I didn't even LIKE the third book as much, which only made me angrier....

heh, this series is going to make me fall in love with it, and while frustrating me in the process, isn't it?
