Game Of Thrones: 10 Ways Your Favourite Characters Could Die

The day is coming when your hero will die, so just accept it.

By Michael Potts /

George R.R. Martin is the most notorious serial killer never to have been jailed for his mass slaughter, despite doing so with the media spotlight fixated on him. The 66-year-old wields a pen, his weapon of choice, and scribbles out characters from A Song Of Ice And Fire like a misspelled word or a completely false maths problem. His ability to kill off your beloved heroes and heroines is similar to building a skyscraper, only to blaze through it with a wrecking ball before anybody really got a chance to see how it could be used. Martin is brutal, calculated, and heartless... but that's what makes his story-telling so fantastic. Readers are always kept on their toes, and in turn, Game of Thrones TV viewers are also constantly on the edge of their seat. While Season 5's finale was met with a mixed reaction, there's no denying it ramped the shock factor up to maximum. Fan theories are always popular when it comes to 'winning' the game of thrones, the parentage of certain Night's Watch Lord Commanders, and when the next big battle will hit. However, it's time to face the cold, hard facts. Your favourite character, , is going to die. Here are 10 of the biggest deaths that will inevitably happen before the series' end. NO Book Spoilers Ahead.
