Who is the Many-Faced God in ‘Game of Thrones’?
The Many-Faced God (also known as the God of Death) is a deity worshipped by the Faceless Men, a mystery cult of assassins based in the Free City of Braavos who believe that via their assassinations, they fulfill his work.
The Faceless Men worship Death, believing that he is the only god. The cult is truly a syncretic religion; its adherents believe that Death is worshipped unknowingly by believers of all religions around the world, albeit under different names.
Every religion has a god of death (in polytheistic faiths) or a god who rules over death (in monotheistic faiths). The Faceless Men believe that all of these gods are merely different facets, or “faces,” through which Death has revealed Himself to humanity; thus, their deity is technically referred to as “the Many-Faced God.”
Is Jaqen Ha’ghar the Many-Faced God?
Jaqen H’ghar is not a multifaceted god. He is exactly what he appears to be: an assassin-priest of that faith.
Faceless Men is a death cult. They revere death. The many-faced god is essentially an amalgamation of all religions’ death aspects.
