Yeah, the worst piece, ignoring the Pawn and King, is easily the Bishop. No other piece is permanently confined to half the board.

Pawn, which is arguably not a piece depending on definitions.

I was rereading The Wandering Inn recently and Pawn is the name of a major character, so it came to mind fairly quickly.

Well, I mean, kind of. It's said that a pair of connected rooks is the most powerful piece in the game, but it's also by far the slowest piece to develop. While you're playing for the board and other pieces are being mobile, the rooks basically just sit in the corner, biding their time until you clear the pieces next to them.

No, because knight was a word I actually knew when I was 8 and was taught chess. A rook is a bird. Why is a bird a castle? (If it was a rookery, I guess that might make sense.)

While Ive always called it a rook, one of the best arguments I can think of for a castle (other than its appearance) is that castling (or to castle) is a move involving that piece.

I did not know a rook was a bird when I was 8.
