Game of Thrones: In Memoriam Part 1

Valar Morghulis: All Men Must Die
And in Game of Thrones truer words were never spoken.
In every episode someone dies, sometimes it is a beloved character other times a nameless person or even just a goat. But regardless of who dies it is a given that blood will be shed.

Here is part one of my list of those we lost this season.
Red: Important deaths
Blue: Less important deaths
Green: Just your average deaths in GOT, mainly nameless masses


401: Two Swords
  • Polliver- Killed by Arya for revenge of Lommy. Probably the most pivotal kill for Arya. She is deliberate in what she says and how she kills him so that right before he dies he remembers what he did to Lommy. What makes his death important is not who he was, but who killed him and how. The true beginning of "bad-ass Arya".
402: The Lion and the Rose

  • Tansy- Hunted and killed by Ramsey Snow's mistress and dogs. Only important because it shows how sick Ramsey and how weak and broken Theon Greyjoy has become.
  • Sacrifices to the Lord of Light- At Dragonstone you live by the light or you die by the light. 
  • King Joffrey- The death we all waited for. Really, who did not cheer when this spoiler masochistic brat of a King died?! 
403:  The Breaker of Chains

  • Sir Dontos Hollard- Saved by Sansa from Joffrey to become the King's Fool. Used by Littlefinger to save Sansa. Should have worked out, but never trust Littlefinger...ever.
  • Northern Villagers- A small northern village massacred by the roving Wildlings. Only one boy, Olly, was spared to send a message to the Night's Watch.
404: Oathkeeper

  • 163 Masters- Queen Daenerys Targaryen ordered the crucifixions of 163 Masters of Meereen. This is in response for the 163 children they crucified to make mile makers.
405: First of His Name

  • Karl Tanner- The leader of the Mutineers from the Night's Watch. Killed by Jon Snow, but boy did he have it coming. He killed Lord Commander Mormont (and drank out of his skull!!!) and started the mutiny. He was a rapist and egotistically self-proclaimed legend. A**hole! This character sort of ruined "Owen" from Torchwood for me.    
  • Rast- Another mutineer. Killed by Ghost. Really should not screw with a direwolf or his human. 
  • Locke- The Bolton's spy. Killed by Bran using Hordor with his warg powers. Again, another guy that got what he deserved. Probably shouldn't have cut off Jamie Lannister's hand. Karma is a bitch.
  • Mutineers and  3 Brothers of the Night's Watch- Not including Locke, three of the Night's Watch died. All of the mutineers died. 

To be continued...
