Game Of Thrones: Ranking The Probability Of Every Character Death At The Battle Of Winterfell

9. Jorah Mormont

Jorah Heartsbane

Jorah Mormont has done the unthinkable and survived greyscale, thanks to Sam, and that means he's been able to go on fighting for Daenerys Targaryen. His whole story on the show has been in service for her, which means that, at some point, he'll have to die in her service too.

His arc doesn't really stand up to survival, so it's just a question of when. It might depend on who else they kill, but Jorah is the chance for a big name exit here. He's seemingly being given a very prominent role in the battle - he has a Valyrian steel sword (Heartsbane), and the trailer for episode 3 suggests he's helping to command the troops.

Maybe it's a touch too early for him, and he should instead go at the end when Dany does, but if there's a chance for him to sacrifice himself and save his Khaleesi, or to save Sam now, you know he'll be taking it.

Chance Of Death: 7/10
