[Main Spoilers] Out There Theory on Littlefinger.

SpoilerMain

He shouldn't still be alive with all the snake-like moves pulled and he also is fully aware of everything that goes on at all times it seems, which has lead me to evaluate his character. After looking through the House of Baelish lineage, I learned that his family comes from Bravos. His great-grandfather being a sellsword who eventually came to Westoros.

How does a sellsword and his family from Bravos end up founding a house and serving with the all these Westorosi families? They ended up even having land called the Fingers, a string of peninsulas tucked north of the Vale. That's alot of perks for coming over as a sellsword from a entirely different land.

Anyway, long story short, I have a feeling the House of Baelish are all faceless with the art being passed down through the family. The survival of Petyr's great-grandfather all the way down to Petyr himself surviving with little allies and little claim to anything. We haven't really seen Petyr fight, maybe thats a way of hiding it unless necessary...although he did somehow put a knife to Ned's throat. We have seen him outsmart, outsneak and outlive countless characters, including Arya, another faceless trainee. Although, we haven't seen him change his face, it doesn't mean it hasn't happened....If the theory holds true, imagine how many strings he's pulled right in front of our faces that we don't even realize.

When Arya fought Brienne in the recent episode, Baelish watches over it happening with a small smirk as if he knows where Arya has been and what her fighting style is. If you watch back when Arya says she learned from 'no one' Petyr smirks and walks away. Although it isn't much evidence, Petyr being faceless would explain tons.

Does anyone think this is a possibility?
