If Stannis does n’t go to the Boltons , him twist North and dying to the Others is another pick .
10Shireen Baratheon
Shireen’s death in the show was a plot idea from George R.R. Martin.
plot of Thrones’saddest destruction will be unlike inThe Winds of Winter , deviate from Shireen Baratheon ’s dismay destruction in the TV series at the workforce of her forefather and Melisandre . In the books , Shireen has n’t accompany Stannis on his march to Winterfell from the Wall , which is when she was killed on the show . In a Koran about the behind - the - scenes work onGame of Thrones , titledFire Can not vote down A Dragon , a quotation mark from Martin suggests that"Stannis ' decision to burn his daughter"was a patch thread he ’d informed David Benioff and D.B.

He said,“So telling Hodor to ' nurse the door ' is more like ' hold this pass ' — defend it when enemies are coming — and Hodor is push and killing them,“implying Hodor would be exert a sword and contend off the Others ( viaEW ) .
8Three-Eyed Crow
There’s more to the Three-Eyed Crow than in the TV series.
The Three - Eyed Crow , also known as Brynden Rivers , is thebook version of the show ’s Three - Eyed Raven . He plays a similar role , living in a cave with the children of the forest and mentoring Bran in greensight . Based on the Hodor quote , it ’s mediocre to assume standardized effect will transpirate with Bran ’s grooming north of the Wall , and they ’ll finally have to fly to the south . If the Three - Eyed Crow dies inThe Winds of Winter , his narrative will hopefully be more develop than the show ’s vis-a-vis , given Martin ’s time exploring Brynden ’s past .
7Loras Tyrell
Ser Loras has been reported to be deeply wounded at Dragonstone.
InGame of Thrones , Loras Tyrell dies in the wildfire explosion at the Sept of Baelor . InThe Winds of Winter , his fate looks like it ’ll come sooner .

In Martin ’s novel , Cersei and Margaery ’s antagonistic relationship is just as virulent . With Kevan Lannister out of the manner , Cersei will be free to act on her patronage for the Tyrells . It seems most probable that the Lannister position will be weakened by
5Roose Bolton
The Lord of the Dreadfort could perish against Stannis.

This may disappoint book fan , who ’ve developed fascinating theory about Roose being an immortal being or , more specifically , a vampire .
4Ramsay Bolton
The conflicts in the North will likely claim Ramsay’s life.
Ramsa , one of themost hateableGame of Thronescharacters , is kill by his own houndsafter Jon and Sansa reclaim Winterfell .
