5. What weaknesses do you possess that aren't just personal failings, but could be exploited by your enemies to cost you the Game of Thrones? What are the fields of engagement where you can't just apply Game Theory analysis, but instead will act against your own interests? Answer here.

Alaric on his family

• Korel - From what I have seen of him, Korel is a gifted technician, a capable warrior, and more importantly, a good man. Rare qualities to find in one who proved willing to defect from his former home, but I, of all people, cannot fault him for his past. He is a credit to our House.
• Pranzha - Pending
• Hayabusa - Pending
• Aisha - Ah, my little Aisha. Even if duty did not bind me to stay and fight for the place of our household now that Taric is gone, I would do so for no better reason that because she needed my help. She is the daughter that I could never have, and I would not abandon her in a time of need. The rage that burns so fiercely in her heart troubles me greatly; were it possible I would quench it with my own life's blood rather than see it consume her.
• Hinoko - I count myself privileged to have spent an all too brief time serving under her. I hope more of my brothers and sisters in the Order will take up the call to spend time serving as chaplains to the Navy; not only may they serve the seamen of the Realm, but they may carry the light of the Faith with them to to peoples at every port of call who might not otherwise see a Monk in their lifetimes. It speaks well of her style of command and of how she trains her officers when the men were not more than a little surprised to see one of the Chosen of the Dragons swabbing the decks alongside them. If truth be told, it can be a little unnerving how very much like my brother she is, but too it gives me hope for the future of our household.
• Grolush - Pending
• Sikandi - Pending
• Taen - He is me, as I would have been but for the grace of the Dragons. He wears his stubborn pride and self-indulgence as a massive boulder locked about his own neck, and it threatens to drag him down to the depths from which we return only in our next life. Though the river may carry away even the greatest of mountains, given time, I fear that he cannot wait so long. I only pray I have the strength to keep him from drowning, as Taric once did for me, long enough that he might open his eyes and see that he still holds the key to that lock if he will but use it.
• Onais - Pending
• Medoina - I remember when I would visit home when she was a child; she used to love helping me tend to the gardens. Back then, I could actually teach her a little of the proper placement of flowers, stones, and water. She has far surpassed her old teacher now, though she still humors an old man by helping him with the gardening on occasion.
