While he exists and is even shown in the show, Hoster Tully plays a much bigger role in the books, especially during the War of Five Kings. Arya Stark might be the one to take on her path with her list of names still going… 19 – Hoster Tully credit: residentsmooth, HBO

Her storyline was most likely cut from the show due to nothing truly significant being built around her besides her thirst for vengeance. Her existence is now bent on one thing only: to avenge the Red Wedding and kill any and everyone that had a play in it, starting with two of Walder Frey’s sons they cross paths with at the very end of “A Storm of Swords” The resurrected Catelyn however, is obviously changed in the process into a dark and colder woman who gets the nickname of Lady Stoneheart. Berric sacrifices himself and gives Catelyn the kiss of fire, dying one final time and resurrecting her in the process. The Brotherhood without Banners, led by Berric Danderrion and Thoros of Myr find the rotten corpse three days after the horrific events. The show even had a symbolic scene where the Hound, presumed dead in Season 4, takes a leak on a river in Season 6, to confirm she will never ever appear on “Game of Thrones”.Īfter her throat is slit wide open at the Red Wedding, Catelyn Stark’s body is thrown in a river. Pretty much everyone knows about Lady Stoneheart by now, so it comes as no surprise that she would be on this list. Imagine had more been introduced…įirst one is by now an obvious one: 20 – Lady Stoneheart credit: Anna Mitura Laskowska, ertacaltinoz Many fans of the show often complain about the intricate plots involving the already many characters in the series. Other merges of characters, or transfer of one new character’s story arc to an already existing one in the show made for less complicated viewing.


You may often hear avid fans of the books complain about these omissions, yet keep in mind that a lot of these are actually justified. We take a look at twenty characters from George R.R Martin’s epic fantasy series to have either not appeared on the show, or that have been modified and their storylines transferred to other characters from the series to avoid confusion. There are too many characters from the books of “A Song Of Ice And Fire” that ended up not appearing in HBO’s Adaptation “Game of Thrones” some for the better to simplify the story, others, we have yet to know why.
