Robert · Robert Baratheon
When he was young, Robert was once a famous warrior in the seven kingdoms, but after ascending the throne, he was addicted to wine and sex all day long and did not care about state affairs. When the incest between Queen Cersei and her younger brother James was about to be revealed, Cersei took the lead and secretly ordered Robert's servant and her cousin Lanser to replace Robert with three times the concentration of spirits, which caused him to be "accidentally" stabbed by a wild boar during hunting due to excessive drinking. The next day, Robert was seriously injured and died.
Robert's death broke the already unstable balance of major forces in the kingdom and kicked off the battle between the Five Kings.
Ned Stark (Eddard Stark)
On the poster of the first season, Ned sits on the Iron Throne with a sharp sword in his hand. This lord from the north was upright and kind. He was loyal to the king and kept his promises. He was the most ideal image of a father, monarch, knight and husband. No one suspects that he is the hero of the whole show and will become one of the longest-lived characters.
However, at the end of the first season, he was sent to the guillotine by the irritable King Joffrey. While the audience was still waiting for a climax to turn the tide, Ned's head landed with a "bang", leaving only a few doves in the dim sky flying by. This famous scene laid the foundation for people's impression of "Game of Thrones": "Don't imagine your favorite character as the protagonist, otherwise he will die in the next episode." Since then, the Stark family has been displaced, and underage children have to be trapped in the whirlpool of power.
Drogo Kao (Khal Drogo)
Drogo Kao is a tribal leader of the Dothraki people of the grassland nation. He was one of the most powerful leaders at that time, but he was destined to be a stepping stone on the way to retake the throne by "Dragon Girl" Daenerys.
In the duel, Kao killed a cavalry who insulted Daenerys and was injured, and then received witch treatment. The witch used witchcraft to infect her wounds, and eventually Kao lost his mind and turned into a walking corpse due to witchcraft, and was killed by the desperate Danny. Danny ordered the witch to tie it to Kao's pyre, ignite the fire with his own hands to avenge him, and jump into the fire with the dragon egg in her arms. The next day, the flames went out and Danny walked out of the embers with the hatched dragon.
Robb Stark (Robb Stark)
Robb Stark is known as the "Young Wolf Lord". As the eldest son of the Stark family, he took over the mantle of the "King of the North" after his father was beheaded. People expect Robb to lead the Wolf family to regain his strength, but he was attracted by Jenny of the Westerling family, who was ordered by the Duke of Tywin, and betrayed his engagement with the Frey family. On the " Blood Wedding " planned by the Duke of Tywin and the resentful Frey family, the nobles and army loyal to Stark were brutally massacred without any defense, and all Robb's guards were killed in battle. Her mother witnessed Luce Bolton stabbing the sword into Robb's heart, and then she fell into chaos. The direwolf's head was cut off and sewn onto Robb's body.
Tywin Lannister (Tywin Lannister)
Duke Tywin is the biggest boss in the first four seasons of "Game of Thrones". He is cruel and ruthless, has a strong desire to control, and only regards his children as pawns for power. When his dwarf son Tyrion finds his lover Xueyi lying naked on his father's bed, he strangles Xueyi with a necklace. Then he took off the crossbow from the wall and found his father in the toilet. Tywin was very disdainful of him, believing that he did not dare to kill his father, and kept calling his first wife Tessa .
Tyrion could not tolerate such insults and shot Tywin with a crossbow. A generation of hero Tywin died on the toilet. Afterwards, Tyrion recalled the scene when his father died in front of him: "The stench proved that famous saying was a complete lie. Duke Tywin Lannister did not pull out gold until his death."
Joffrey Baratheon (Joffrey Baratheon)
Joffrey was the eldest son and heir of King Robert and Queen Cersei, but in fact he was born of incest with his twin brother James. After Robert's death, Joffrey inherited the throne. If the audience hates the most, Joffrey will definitely be the one who gets the most votes. He is selfish, dark, vicious, stupid, as if any complimentary word is inseparable from him. At his wedding to Margaret Tyrier , Joffrey drank poisoned wine and died of blood in full view of the ministers.
However, the plot has developed to season 6, and the audience began to miss this brainless "Joffrey Great". Just like Joffrey's actor Jack Gleeson said: "People want to see the person they hate die, but when this character is about to leave the screen, I think fans will still be a little sad."
Oberen Martell (Oberyn Martell)
Oberen Martell, nicknamed "Red Viper", died in the arena, but his way of death was not glorious. "Demon Mountain" Gregor Clicang is his opponent in the competition trial. Ignoring the advantages brought by Gregor's huge body, Oberon used the distance caused by his spear and his agility to stab him several times, and finally nailed him to the ground with his spear. Instead of immediately ending Grego's life, Oberon forced him to admit and confess his crimes against Elia. However, Gregor, who was lying on the ground, suddenly pulled him down unexpectedly and smashed his face with his fist.
Oberon practiced the meaning of the word "death".
Ado (Hodor)
"Someone woke up and found out that he knew all the secrets of the universe: where the end of the world is, the mission given by people, the meaning of life, which is the true god... and so on, he wanted to find someone to explain his ideas, but he found that all the words were turned into - "hodor."
This comment tells the life of the little character Ado, who was named one of the most tragic characters in the whole play. In the play, he is loyal to his master Bran , but he can't speak, and he can only repeat the word "Hodor", and the reason is not revealed until he dies. In order to escape from the clutches of the alien, Bran traveled back to the time of a child and told the young Ador to "Hold the door." This sentence accompanied Adu's life, and he still kept the door tightly while the army was overwhelming.
Emon Targaryen (Aemon Targaryen)
As the successor of the dragon clan,Emon was once secretly arranged for the throne. But he chose to give up and went to Black Castle alone to be a poor bachelor's degree. Emon's death is the most peaceful scene in this power drama. He died of old age and was surrounded by his kind apprentice Sam. On his dying day, he dreamed that he had become a boy, a younger brother who had accompanied him, and finally said softly: "Igo, I dreamed that I am old."
It is sad that outside the play, Peter Vaughan, the British actor who played Bachelor of Imon, also passed away on December 6, 2016 at the age of 93.
Rams Bolton (Ramsay Bolton)
After the death of "Joffrey the Great", Rams Bolton was elected as "the character that the audience hates the most." He is called "Little Skin" and is full of resentment towards his illegitimate identity. His enemies are usually skinned alive by him, and all human skins will be brought back to the Horror Fort as a terrible spoil.
"Small skinning" death has the taste of "treating the person's body with the way he is." In the Battle of the Bastard in Season 6, he was first beaten 21 times by Snow, and then was bitten to death by his own hunting dog.
Margaery Tyrell
Margaery Tyrell is known as the "Little Rose". She is good at power and wins people's hearts like her grandmother "Queen of Thorns". For the benefit of her high family, she became the woman of the three kings Renly, Joffrey and Toman. During the church's judgment, Margaret discovered that Cersei and Toman were not present. She quickly realized that something was wrong and asked everyone to evacuate quickly. At this time, the wildfire buried in Cersei's underground in the Cathedral of Baylor suddenly exploded, burning down everything present. King Thorman, who saw this scene, was frightened, took off his crown and committed suicide for Margaret.
High Sparrow (High Sparrow)
High Sparrow is the archbishop of the church and a religious fanatic. His real name is unknown to anyone. Since coming to King's Landing, the archbishop and his followers have claimed to think about the poor, but they have no mercy on those who are different from their worldview - for example, Loras Tyrier was taken to the judgment table for sexual orientation. In season 6, the Sparrow has a classic line: "We all deserve to die. Everyone is."
His "dead to die" day is coming soon. He also died in the church explosion planned by Cersei, and wanted to declare bankruptcy with the grand blueprint of religion against the royal power.
