FAQ for Watchers on the Wall

Maester Aemon

- Aemon's ability uses the claim value of your revealed plot.

- Claim for Aemon's ability is applied outside of any challenge, so effects that reference claim "during/for a challenge" do not apply.

Grizzled Miner

- Grizzled Miner's cost cannot be reduced to 0 by any means (the minimum is absolute, not specific to the Miner's ability; see Wraiths in Their Midst).

* * * * *

Grenn

- 'Move' and 'gain' are different game terms. Grenn will not trigger Ser Edmure Tully.

* * * * *

Samwell Tarly

- Characters become participating (and blanked) only after being declared as attackers/defenders, and after declaring stealth. So Sam will not interfere with stealth, or with characters that do not kneel to attack/defend (e.g. Ser Jaime Lannister, Brienne of Tarth).

Queenscrown

- Placing a card in the discard pile does not trigger any "When/After a card is discarded" abilities (e.g. Crone of Vaes Dothrak, Tywin Lannister (LoCR) ).

* * * * *

Catapult on the Wall

- "Attached character" is the one this card was attached to when you triggered its ability. If you use Arya's Gift to re-attach the Catapult to another character, the original character would not stand this round.

Marya Seaworth

- If you choose the same character as a stealth target twice, then trigger Marya and her ability gets cancelled (e.g. via Treachery), you can trigger her again. (Source)

Black Betha

- The X is fixed during the resolution of the ability, and will not change if the defending player subsequently kneels characters.

* * * * *

Lingering Venom

- The kill effect only occurs when you trigger the ability, which is a reaction to losing a challenge. It does not impose a terminal condition like Dracarys.

- Venom can slowly eat through duplicates and saves. If attached character is saved, you can trigger Venom next time you lose a challenge. The tokens are not removed when you attempt the kill.

- Venom tokens are placed on the attachment, not the character. So multiple Venoms will not work faster.

Called Into Service

- If you reveal a character but cannot put it into play (due to Barring the Gates, or if that unique character is dead), then nothing happens. Return the revealed card back on top of your deck.

* * * * *

The White Shadows

- Craster is only immune to Omen card effects while he is in play, not while he's in the dead pile, so The White Shadows can resurrect him, and he'll enter play blanked.

- If a character is killed at the end of the phase (e.g. by Tears of Lys), it will be resurrected and then immediately placed in its owner's dead pile.
