20 Characters Who Only Died Because Everyone Was Stupid
You know what they say: It’s always a tragedy when a fictional character dies, unless it's Ramsey Bolton. Unfortunately, it's often necessary, especially when it's Ramsey Bolton. Death is a part of life, after all, and there’s rich artistic ground to explore in grief and mortality. It’s literally a part of the “hero’s journey” to lose a beloved mentor. It’s also just satisfying to see a sadistic monster eaten by his own abused dogs. Man, that guy was the worst.
Sometimes, though, it’s not necessary at all. In fact, if anyone in the vicinity had displayed even an ounce of good judgment, so many fan favorites could have escaped with their lives. That’s why user sugar-soad asked r/AskReddit, “Which fictional character would still be alive if other characters had used a bit of common sense?”
