Game Of Thrones: Ranking The Probability Of Every Character Death In The Battle Of The Bastards
4. Podrick Payne
Podrick Payne. A minor character who has defied all the odds and made it to Season 6. Did anybody really see that coming? And it’s not even like he’s had an easy ride, Pod has been thrown into some tough situations.
But is the luck running out? Bronn made reference to his own surprise that Pod had made it this far, with the young squire responding that he has been training to fight. And that could prove to be the ultimate end of Pod.
Does anybody else get the feeling a glorious, hero’s death is on the way? Podrick’s simmering ‘training’ storyline has bubbled under the surface for a long time now, and that can’t be an accident. He’s never going to be a mighty warrior but a courageous kill to save a big player’s life might be a fitting way for the young man to finally exit the cruel world of Westeros and beyond.
Chance of death: 7/10
