In reverence to George R.R. Martin, a Game of Thrones Murder Mystery Party was held ...The year was 2015. It was June 15th to be exact, a balmy Saturday, if we are playing that game. Oh yes, we are playing that game and many others...
That evening a slew of treacherous murders were perpetrated. Many hands were soiled, many were bloodied, for that is what happens when you play the game of thrones. 41 attended. Each with a secret vendetta. Some more than others came a little angrier, a little more willing to strike, like a Viper in a rat's nest. Character Slide Show |
Introductions: The Mead Mingle (Round 1)The Seven Kingdoms of Westeros are divided into many noble houses, and on that fateful evening the houses convened to vie for power and solve the murders, to see which house would ultimately reign supreme.

Change came. Fierce competition ensued. Not everyone could be a winner.
Why? Because this is a game of thrones. You either win or you die!

** Thanks to everyone that attended the party. You were great sports! But more importantly, a special thank you to Stannis Baratheon whose friendship means a lot to me. I couldn't have done this without all of your help. You were an amazing partner in crime. If only Khaleesi and Stannis could rule the iron throne together! **
