Littlefinger has been up to no good on Game of Thrones for a while now. The scheming troll, otherwise known as Petyr Baelish, is wreaking havoc left and right in Westeros. And his new targets are Arya and Sansa Stark. Exhibit A: In last week’s episode, he led Arya to the scroll Sansa wrote—under duress, seasons ago—urging Robb to swear allegiance to King Joffrey. This will no doubt cause tension between the sisters—because Arya will think Sansa is betraying Jon Snow—and that’s exactly what Littlefinger wants. He’ a messy queen who lives for the drama.

Why is he like this, though? It’s clear Littlefinger wants to see Westeros destroyed by war, so what’s driving his hatred? Is he just plain evil? Is he pissed about Dany and Jon’s potential romance? Or maybe he worships the Many-Faced God?

A Reddit user who goes by NippleBeardTM think it’s the third option—and this makes total sense. NippleBeardTM points to the eerie similarities between Littlefinger and the Many-Faced God as the primary evidence for this theory.

“[Littlefinger] comes from next to nothing and is basically regarded as no one in terms of the royalty he commonly associates with,” the user writes. “He’s squirmed his way into a position of royalty through marriage and manipulation. He thrives in the chaos that he creates, the sides that he takes politically seem as meaningless to him as the people he gets killed.”

Now, compare these attributes to what we know about the Many-Faced God. NippleBeardTM notes this elusive deity “doesn’t give a s–t about anyone, steals faces, [and its] followers are loner masters of disguise with rigorous discipline.” Hmmm, doesn’t this sound a lot like what we just said about Littlefinger?

Plus, think about how Littlefinger knows literally everyone and travels so often under the radar. Is this because he’s channeling the shape-shifting power of the Many-Faced God? Also, Littlefinger is responsible for the War of Five Kings, which sounds like something that would make the Many-Faced God very happy.

But that isn’t even the strongest piece of evidence. Take a second to think about the Valyrian Steel Dagger. “Guess where the Many-Faced God religion originated? Yep. Valyria. Guess whose dagger started the War of Five Kings by trying to assassinate the Stark family heirs? Good ‘Ole Petyr,” the Reddit theory reads. Dun, dun, duuun.

Could this craziness be true? It seems likely. If you’re skeptical, you can read NippleBeardTM’s entire theory here—but we’re 100 percent convinced. And terrified.
