Who Is He? One of the greatest knights in Westerosi history, we never really get to see Barristan the Bold at his best. If we had, he'd no doubt be a lot higher on this list, because even in his later years he's a force to be reckoned with. 

He was removed from his position as Lord Commander of the Kingsguard by Joffrey and Cersei, but that's just meant he has departed Westeros and thrown his weight behind the cause of Daenerys, becoming her wisest counsel and, as shown in the way he was killed, still more than capable with a sword in his hand. 

Number Of Kills: 14

Victims: Sons of the Harpy x 14

NCTJ-qualified journalist. Most definitely not a racing driver. Drink too much tea; eat too much peanut butter; watch too much TV. Sadly only the latter paying off so far. A mix of wise-old man in a young man's body with a child-like wonder about him and a great otherworldly sensibility.
