Father Gabriel took a while to win over fans; a cowardly priest and turncoat, he wasn't a character we were intended to like, despite ostensibly being on the side of good.

That's slowly started to change though, with the back-half of Season 6 and first of Season 7 showing a man with more courage, and greater loyalty to the community who has helped protect him.

It's the kind of turn that marks him out as a clear candidate for death. Gabriel has long felt like a character who very much has a time limit, and now that he's started to shift into a heroic character, he's probably going to complete that transition by dying a hero's death towards the end of Season 7.

Chance Of Dying: 9/10
