Game of Thrones: Hall of Faces

1 Jon Arryn

Though he never appeared alive in the show, it all started with the death of Jon Arryn, poisoned by Lysa Arryn at Littlefinger's behest, kicking off his gradual rise to power

1 Lady

Sansa's direwolf was put down in the place of Arya's direwolf Nimeria who attacked King Joffrey but could not be found

1 Jory Cassell

Stabbed through the eye by Jaime Lannister, who ordered the death of all Nedd Stark's men as revenge for his brother Tyrion being held in custody

1 Viserys Targaryen

Unlike his sister Daenerys, he was just a little too impatient and demanding to get ahead (although he did get his golden crown).

1 Robert Baratheon

Preferring drinking and playing over sitting on the throne, the Lord of the Seven Kingdoms suffered a deadly wound while hunting wild boar.

1 Eddard Stark

An honorable man, the Lord of Winterfell was beheaded on the order of King Joffrey for standing up for the truth when he rightly challenged his birthright to the throne.

1 Khal Drogo

His brutal past as a warrior comes back to haunt him. Turns out witches don't want to heal you after you rape and pillage their village. You never know when the sun will rise in the East...

1 Mirri Maz Duur

Burned alive by Danaerys for using black magic to kill her husband Drogo and their unborn child Rhaego

2 Yoren

The one who gave Arya the idea to keep a kill list, he died in a fight with Lannister men while protecting Arya after the execution of her father

2 Renly Baratheon

He might have thought he was rightful heir to the throne, but the shadow born of his older brother Stannis and the Red Woman thought otherwise...

2 Rodrik Cassel

Spit in the face of Theon Greyjoy who killed him only to maintain his already crumbling authority during the taking of Winterfell.

2 Maester Luwin

Though critical of Theon's leadership, he was stabbed trying to stop the mutiny against Theon and was later mercy killed by Osha

2 Qhorin Halfhand

Tricked Jon Snow into killing him in order to make the Wildlings believe Jon has left the Night's Watch

2 Irri

Daenerys' loyal handmaiden was strangled by Doreah when she interrupted a plot to steal the dragons. Don't check on the dragons.

2 Xaro Xhoan Daxos

This Qarth merchant lied to Daenerys about his great wealth and power (not to mention tried to steal her dragons).

2 Doreah

Fooled by Xaro's claims about his great Valyrian wealth, she betrayed Daenerys and was locked in the tellingly empty treasure vault

3 Jeor Mormont

Killed by his own men in the Mutiny at Craster's Keep by trying to please the gods and keeping the peace with his host.

3 Craster

Killed in the Mutiny at Craster's Keep for being untrustworthy and repeatedly insulting the Night's Watch.

3 Kraznys

The slave trader from Astapor didn't know that Daenerys could speak Valyrian or that dragons stay loyal to their mother.

Too clever for her own good, this plucky prostitute perished as Joffrey's plaything when she started spying on Littlefinger for Varys and he found out about it.

3 Talisa Stark

Robb's new pregnant wife was stabbed in the stomach by Lothar Frey at the Red Wedding

3 Robb Stark

More interested in love than politics, Robb Stark was brutally murdered at the Red Wedding for breaking his vow to marry one of Walder Frey's daughters.

3 Catelyn Stark

Fiercely protective of her children, she tried to bargain with Frey for Robb's life before her throat was slit. Was this punishment from the gods for not keeping her oath to legitimize Jon Snow?

4 Grey Wind

Shot with arrows by Frey's men, Robb's direwolf sensed his master's impending doom but could not save him.

4 Joffrey Baratheon

Why was King Joffrey poisoned at his own wedding? Too many reasons.

4 Locke

Sent by Bolton to kill Bran and Rickon, Hodor (under Bran's warg control) kills him to protect the boys.

Catelyn Stark's eccentric sister Lysa Arryn fell in love with the wrong man, Littlefinger who pushed her out of the Moon Door even after she poisoned Jon Arryn for him.

4 Oberyn Martell

After successfully avenging his sister's death in his trial by combat with the Mountain, Oberyn's death can be attributed to cockiness and his insistence on hearing a spoken confession.

4 Dongo

The giant was impaled while trying to lift the gate at the Battle of Castle Black

4 Mag the Mighty

Enraged by fellow giant Dongo's death, Mag finds the strength to lift the gate before being killed by Grenn

4 Grenn

Strong but slow-witted, he died killing Mag the Mighty and successfully holding the Gate at the Battle of Castle Black

4 Pyp

The nervous Night's Watch recruit was excited to get one successful kill in, but was then shot in the neck by Ygritte at the Battle of Castle Black

Stabbed by wights at the end of his quest to bring Bran to the Three-Eyed Raven. His prophetic powers warned him of his death beforehand.

His allegiance to his bride to be was questionable, but he was stabbed to death by the Sons of the Harpy, indicating he was loyal to Daenerys after all

5 Shireen Baratheon

Rejected because of her unsightly Greyscale, her parents allow her to be burned alive as a sacrifice to the Lord of Light by Melisandre.

5 Selyse Baratheon

Once a religious fanatic quite cold to her daughter, Selyse breaks down while watching Shireen die and faced with the enormity of what she's done, hangs herself

5 Stannis Baratheon

Right after sacrificing his own daughter, Stannis was executed by Oathkeeper Brienne of Tarth for also using blood magic to kill his brother Renly, to whom Brienne was pledged.

6 Walda Frey

Even though Roose Bolton was already dead, she and her baby were fed to the dogs by Ramsay Bolton, removing all threats to his rule of House Bolton

Hung by Jon Snow for participating in his mutiny and murder

6 Ramsay Bolton

After being beaten by Jon Stark, Ramsay was fed to his "loyal" dogs by his former wife Sansa, payback for torturing her and his other victims

6 Pycelle

Though more loyal to the Lannisters than to the crown, the shifty old man was killed by Varys' little birds and Qyburn just before the bombing of the Sept. Out with the old, in with the new

6 Cousin Lancel

A fervent member of the Faith Militant, Cersei's reformed lover was also lured away by the little birds and tried to stop the Wildfire explosion but was the first incinerated instead

Still pissed about her walk of atonement, Cersei killed the High Septon in an explosion of Wildfire to avoid standing trial for any of her misdeeds ever again

5 Why did Jon Snow die?
