First of all, Syrio, J'aquen and the alchemist were all pretty bad ass cool characters.Īnd its not my theory im not even sure im in favor of it, due mostly to the points that JON T pointed out.ive struggled with why choose a prisoner.and how did he really escape, but considering the powers J'aquen showed, if this theory was true, GRRM would have a lot of room to work with here.the prisoner part could have found J'aquen escaping through some tunnels and and needed a way to escape the city wthout killing an innocent, so chose a prisoner, he killed for Arya but that wa payment, and obviously working for someone in Oldtown, so killing there would be on the job. i am pretty sure it goes both ways as far as who the faceless man can turn into, someone they killed or someone else.It was only my understainding that Jaquen was the alchemist who is now Pate based on the descrption given in front of arya of j'aquen's new face and by Pate of the alchemist. OK obviously if syrio = j'aquen then Syrio was probably just another victim of this faceless man. No offesnse, but im not just here for information and to read. Im not going to read those threads, and if i want to start a R +L=J thread without having read the 5 year old epic threads, why cant I.did i miss a rule book ? This is why there should be a separate forum for people who are just joining. It seems like some of the vets imply we are wasting their time by talking about something they have already discussed in full before. WHy cant people who havent read those over analyzed, dissected threads just talk about this stuff on our own for a while. Man, i have to go about this nicely i think for anyone to get my point. In any case, this particular theory has been covered extensively, and there is almost no grounds for Syrio Forel to even be alive, yet alone a Faceless Man. You also do not consider that many people do not think theories through to their logical conclusion - if they did, we wouldn't have nearly so many crackpot theories as we do. While it does make Syrio a "facade", it simply transfers the coolness factor Syrio had to Jaqen H'ghar. To accept the theory, you have to except that there never was a Syrio in the first place, or that if there was he was killed and replaced before the fake "Syrio" pretending to be him ever appeared in the books. He'd be fake, a fraud, the facade of a mummer who either made him up from scratch, or worse killed the real Syrio before taking over his persona. It boggles my mind how illogical this statement is, and yet how often it is made.Īny Syrio = Jaquen theories cannot be motivated by love for Syrio and a desire to see him alive, because if true it negates the existence of Syrio as a living character. If you read the threads that EB has indicated I'm sure you'll get more justifications to it. But it's still a bad and unneeded theory. It's a bad theory because it raises more questions than it answers: Why a faceless men would like to change their place with a prisoner? How could Syrio survive against armored men with a wooden stick? If he had been captured, why wasn't he murdered like the entire Stark houshold had been? And why no one mentioned him afterwards? If Jaquen had been Syrio, would he have left Arya alone in Harrenhal? It's a bad theory because it's only motivated by the fact that Syrio was a cool character and people would like him to be alive. If he wished, George could finish the books without including any reference to any of them and everything would still be accounted for. Jaquen is a Faceles men who got caught and thanked Arya for sparing his life. It's an unneeed theory because everything has already been resolved in the books. Not sure i believe syrio = J'aquen but all you haters out there don't have as solid a case as you all claim.at least i dont think you do, maybe someone can clear it up fpr me. Bad and unneeded theory? enough of that stuff.
