Jaqen gave it to her a couple seasons back and told her that if she ever needed to find him that she should present it to anyone from Braavos.
Here's the scene if you need further reminder.

So this means she's becoming a freaking

I told you that you get hooked. But, like everyone else says GET OUT OF THIS THREAD. You should make a LTTP (Late to the Party) thread though to give everyone your reactions as you plow through the series. Also, don't worry about being overloaded with names and places that's expected. The names and everything else will fall into place after consistent watching and rewatching.

There's talk of them doing a spin off for the Dunk & Egg novellas, which are set about 100 years before the start of Game Of Thrones. The show and DVD extras have mentioned Ser Duncan The Tall ("Dunk" for short) before.

A lot of crap they can do with the Targaryen family too.
Man, thanks for this again. I'm checking out the map and it all seems so informative, cool. We have seen the first 4 episodes and it's a bit hard remembering the names of the townsfolk and such. But I see the link also have the people listed. Fantastic!
Maybe I should do a LttP thread, dunno.
Pay attention to the Houses and you'll start remembering characters.
Particularly the House sigils, i.e.:
House Stark: Direwolf
House Lannister: Lion
House Targaryen: Dragon
House Baratheon: Stag
House Greyjoy: Kraken
House Mormont: Bear
House Clegane: Dog
House Tyrell: Flowers
It seems like a lot, and there are many more, but pay attention to the people within the Houses and who they identify with.
It will take a while but it will start to sink in and you will pick up the lore. I've rewatched all four seasons many times over now, and know who everybody is on the show, and generally have a good understanding of the overall lore.
If you have access to the Blu-rays, there are really informative histories and backgrounds with gorgeous animations in the special features. They really help to inform viewers and even go beyond what the show itself tells you. I'm not sure if the DVDs have those same features, though you really should be watching this show in HD. You can really see the budget go up as the seasons progress. Where we are now, the show looks almost like a high budget film.
Hope this helps.
Thank you. It helps a lot. Right now, I'm reading up on some of the lore on the link I were given, that viewers guide on hbo.com. And I found out it would be easier if I pay attention to which houses people are associated with, so now I feel pretty comfortable going into Episode 5.
And we're already impressed with the production values of these first four episodes. It looks stunning.

I'm going to watch this later today but I thought I would share it with you guys.

Be careful folks, the S5 premiere is occurring in London right now and loads of cast members are getting interviewed.
Generally they're spoiler free, but some tidbits are slipping through.
There's a huge Entertainment Weekly article doing the rounds too with very minor spoilers.

I hope so. I've actually really come to love her character.
If you've watched the trailers and seen where she's going, she looks to have a very exciting season ahead.
Easily my most anticipated storyline. So hyped.
"Avenge them."
Good stuff as always.
Fingers crossed!

Seriously though, really interested in seeing what Mrs. Finger has in store this season. She already started to employ some of the lessons Cersei taught her. Surely Baelish will continue to rear her in the dark arts of manipulation if not other ways.

I rewatched S4 in the past two days, and she plays a blinder in the episode after Lysa dies. She's mastered how to play the "stupid little girl" perfectly. Her 'you owe me' look to LF after she appeals to the Lords of the Vale is fantastic.

As someone who is planning on reading through all those books, and is currently only halfway through Goblet of Fire, I'd say this is pretty accurate.

I'm not a big fan of Sansa, but yeah why would she deserve to die?

She's like the best character in the series. Her entire character arc is leading her to be one of the best players in the game. The best liars are ones that believe their lies, Sansa has both real vulnerability and real mettle, and she's been a pawn for so long she knows exactly what people see in her and want from her, her ability to play to all of that makes her seem destined to outcon any shit we've seen at King's Landing so far. And it helps that Sophie Turner is a good actor, it will probably be realized in a believable way.

As usual feel free to PM myself or Cornballer if you have questions you can't ask hear, or need for clarification. Without fear of spoilers.
And be on the lookout for bitter book fans hurling spoilers sooner or later, as this season will unfortunately result in the show surpassing the plot points of the last book (by the end), and adding new stuff along the way.
