Warning: Spoilers ahead for "Game of Thrones" season six.
The total character death count in "Game of Thrones" is shockingly high, and that number will only get bigger as we head into the show's sixth season. Certain characters, like the season six hot topic Jon Snow, have many fans who firmly believe they'll be alive and well. Actress Sophie Turner (Sansa Stark) actually spilled the beans, and confirmed she survives the season. But there are several men and women of Westeros that we're pretty sure will get the axe soon.
Scroll down to read more about their pending doom.
Tommen Baratheon is out of siblings, and might be next on the chopping block.
In the first episode of season five, a flashback to young Cersei visiting a creepy fortune-teller was the opening scene. The witch lady, named Maggy, told Cersei that she would have three children. "Gold will be their crowns, and gold their shrouds," the woman tells Cersei.
This scene, straight out of the book, has fans believing that all three of Cersei's children are destined to die prematurely. So far, the prophecy is two for three. Joffrey was murdered in season four, and Myrcella died at the hands of the Sand Snakes in the season five finale. The odds of the youngest Lannister bastard making it to the end of season six are low.
Balon Greyjoy's days are definitely numbered.
Back in season two, Melisandre had Stannis burn leeches filled with Gendry's blood and say the names of every "false king" he wanted dead: Joffrey, Robb, and Balon. Within the next two seasons, both Joffrey Baratheon and Robb Stark died, proving Melisandre's power to Stannis. But somehow Balon Greyjoy was forgotten over the years, but now he's back in season six. At least for a little while.
We're pretty certain Balon's death is coming this season. He wasn't featured in the new trailer, but we did get a glimpse of his brother Euron. Based on events in the books, Euron's should assassinate Balon and try to take the Iron Islands for himself.
Jorah Mormont is a walking greyscale bomb.
Jorah the Explorer (as some fans call him) contracted the deadly disease of greyscale in season five. Based on our knowledge of the ailment, his survival would be basically impossible. Plus it feels like Jorah's character arc is coming to a close. He served Daenerys well as her advisor and friend, but that bond may have been broken beyond repair when she learned of his earlier betrayal.
Knowing Jorah, he'll make some grand gesture or heroic act in the final days or moments of his life. We just hope he doesn't spread greyscale around too much before he dies.
