Jaqen later finds that Arya has murdered and ripped off the Waif's face, gouged out her eyes and added it to the Hall of Faces, via a trail of the Waif's blood throughout the House of Black and White. Arya then confronts Jaqen, who admits sending the Waif to kill her, but seems genuinely satisfied with the fact that Arya had bested her.
Although he concedes that Arya's murder of the Waif has finally made her "No One", she instead decides to return to Westeros as "Arya Stark of Winterfell". The Waif was fundamentally a cruel and pitiless individual. She had a cold disposition that seldom broke, but did nothing whatsoever to conceal her violent and vindictive mentality, which she mostly directed at Arya. Much like Jaqen H'ghar, she was stony and calm in demeanor, but unlike the older man she did not bother to hide her capacity for brutality to the people she disliked—that being said, she was visibly frightened and subservient to Jaqen.
She condescended to Arya continuously, and proved to be sadistic towards her when Arya was blinded, taunting her with the fact that her blindness prevented her from being talked to by everyone else around her. When Arya was blinded, the Waif seized the opportunity to use Arya's Faceless Men training as an excuse to beat and abuse her for her own satisfaction, and she proved angry and humiliated when Arya began to match her.
Her sadistic streak was also prominent in the way she blatantly ignored Jaqen's order to not let Arya suffer, instead repeatedly stabbing her in the stomach, which would be a painful death, and that she violently killed Lady Crane and later taunted Arya with the prospect that Crane's death could have been painless if she had done her job correctly.
She appears to be a pale little girl with a gaunt bony face and dark eyes that look as big as saucers. The waif was the only child of an ancient noble house, her father's heir. Her mother died when she was little. When she was six years old her father remarried. Her stepmother treated her well until she gave birth to a daughter of her own. Her stepmother then wanted the waif to die, so her own daughter would inherit the waif's father's wealth. The stepmother approached the House of Black and White, but could not bear the sacrifice asked of her.
She then tried to poison the waif. She did not succeed. When the healer in the House of the Red Hands told the waif's father what the stepmother had done, her father offered a sacrifice of two thirds of his wealth and the waif to the Many-Faced God for his wife to receive "the gift" of the god—death. His prayer was answered and the waif came to the House of Black and White to serve.
The poison, however, stunted her growth, causing her small and boney appearance—she only looks like a young child, but is actually 36 years old. The Waif teaches Arya to speak the Braavosi language. She also gives Arya lessons about poisons, before and after Arya temporarily loses her eyesight. She does not practice fighting with Arya. She slaps Arya once, but otherwise never harms her physically or attempts to. Game of Thrones Wiki.

Trivia Most of Catelyn and Jaime's conversation, as portrayed in the novel, was omitted from the show: Jaime's admission that he is the father of Cersei's children although on the show, he admits his incestuous relation with her ; his version about the dagger, which proved to Catelyn that Littlefinger lied to her about Tyrion being its owner; how Eddard's father and brother were killed by the Mad King.
Goofs Human corpses, when incinerated, form what is known as a "boxer's crouch". This is because the muscles contract, pulling the arms up before the face, and the legs up towards the body in a semi-sitting position. Sometimes the muscles can contract so tightly they crack bones. The bodies of the two children as displayed by Theon and his men would therefore not lie flat. Quotes Tyrion Lannister : It's hard to put a leash on a dog once you've put a crown on its head.

Top review. Well paced episode. Few very slow moments but even those parts are very entertaining, I am starting to really get invested in season 2 though so far fantastic it isn't quit as good as season 1 I think it is setting up future story's that will even surpass what we seen before baelor so far being the best episode.
For example, in the TV series, Jaqen kills the Tickler by sneaking up, snapping his neck, and then throwing him off a castle wall and then slipping away, leaving witnesses unsure if he was actually murdered. Jaqen did kill Amory Lorch with a poison dart, but only because he was pressed for time to kill him immediately.
Faceless Men are not complete shapeshifters; they cannot grow drastically taller or shorter, though they can dramatically change their appearance within their own physical limitations. Either men or women can become "Faceless Men". The abilities of Faceless Men are not genetic or limited to a specific race: anyone can become a Faceless Man with the proper training in the arcane knowledge of their order. It is debatable whether the abilities of the Faceless Men could be considered "magic": They use a variety of tools, potions, and special training to shapeshift, rather than outright incantations and spells.
In "The Forsaken" sample chapter of the sixth novel, Euron admits that he had Balon killed, not by his own hands, but does not specify who did.
George R. Martin was asked about his inspiration for the Faceless Men. He replied "I don't know, that's largely a fantasy trope there's not much evidence for that in history, the one evidence you did actually have a group called the assassins who were in the Middle East and there was a guy called the Old Man in the Mountain who would send forth his assassins to kill people in the Middle East where they'd been killing people for many centuries but they were not like fantasy guilds of assassins.
Order of Assassins , is a Nizari Islamic secret society that was active in the Middle East during the 11th to 13th centuries. Game of Thrones Wiki. Game of Thrones Wiki Explore. Game of Thrones. House of the Dragon. Peterson - linguist. Patel - director. Vhagar Caraxes Syrax Meleys Sunfyre.
