If Game of Thrones were Dungeons & Dragons – Sir Meow-ntain
After playing Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) for more than thirty years, I often interpret a film or book as though it were a group of people playing. Here’s my take on Game of Thrones as if it were a game of D&D that George R.R. Martin was Dungeon Mastering.
Don’t worry, I have some more of these memes on the way.
Sometimes when you’re playing D&D the Dungeon Master does something to a Player Character that the Player never wants to happen again. Sometimes players take a setback personally or badly. Resourceful players will often then try to take precautions against a reoccurrence of the unpleasantness. Having your character’s favorite thing destroyed or stolen often makes players furious, as just one example. It’s a natural reaction to a traumatic event.
In Game of Thrones, if Circe were a PC, her Player’s apparent reaction to being taken prisoner included getting a giant, golden-cat-helmed, Frankenstein-esque murdering machine who was sworn to destroy all her enemies.
