10 Game Of Thrones Characters Who Really Deserve To Die

The exotic paramour of the ever-awesome Oberyn "Red Viper" Martell didn't have a whole lot to do in season 4 aside from engage in group sex and scream when her fella met a grisly end, but it's fair to say she was a reasonably well liked character. 

Was. 

Unable to let go of her grief, Ellaria blames ALL the Lannisters for Oberyn's death and when we returned to her in season 5 she was determined to start a war... whatever the cost. Despite repeated warnings from Prince Doran she finally manages to set things in motion by killing poor Myrcella Baratheon/Lannister with a poisoned kiss. 

Sand may think she's safe in Dorne but with a vengeance-fuelled Kingslayer and his now even more merciless sister to contend with, her life expectancy beyond season 6 does not look promising.
