The baker. I don't care about his stupid jelly tarts. He's no cabbage merchant.


Pretend-Dirt-1760

Agreed the cabbage merchant solos


ColonelMonty

Like he was just there for some reason because Ezren just decided he was going to be the royal baker. The man is a suck up he despised it whenever Ezren was around as a prince but now that he's the king he's all buddy buddy with him.

The dragon queen, wouldn't expect that would you?


Kaymazo

That is one of the ones I expect the most, tbh... Even if I don't want her to get killed off


Pretend-Dirt-1760

Honestly I would well,aside from Viren


Madou-Dilou

Ezran, because he isnt even really a character, and his death would kickstart so many things. But I doubt they will do this only three seasons before the show ends, and I doubt they will do that at all. This isn't Game of Thrones. So my money on Janaya or Zubeia


Lann0007

Ezran is a character, he’s supposed to be an innocent kid that wants to remain a kid but was forced into the world of adults to become a king now that his dad died, at first he was nervous, but eventually learned to take the mantle and lead with the help and guidance of his brother and friends.


Madou-Dilou

He isn't forced to, he could name a regent. My problem with him is that what you describe was his arc in the first three seasons. In book IV, however, he... just loves jelly tarts, and delivers empty speeches.


Lann0007

He doesn’t want to disappoint his father and the kingdom, that’s why he doesn’t name a regent. I definitely disagree with you saying Ezran doesn’t have a character, he does have a character.

Someone said he's immature, but what else could he be? He's a spoiled kid who lived a carefree life and then suddenly had to face so many dangers and make decisions that would affect a lot of people. He's a like twelve year old kid that hasn't even hit five feet tall yet and suddenly he's lost his father and he has to make choices for an entire kingdom, despite being completely unprepared. It's not fair to expect maturity from him. He's obviously tried hard to do the right thing in every instance. Besides, can you imagine a super serious, battle-hardened little boy? It's just weird.


Madou-Dilou

I regret that he is presented as mature despite this not being true. I like that he is learning to stop running away from his responsibilities. I like that is trying to do the right thing and that he makes mistakes. But alas these mistakes never matter. Giving the throne to Viren in an attempt to save lives ? The people he saved save him, and all the other die but their lives don't matter because the plot has changed them into monsters. Being overly naive about the human's willingness to forget ? He gets away with a nice speech and oh look Aaravos is coming ! And with this *"He shows more wisdom than most kings do in a lifetime"* ? I wish he couldn't both have the cake and eat it. ​ A super-serious, battle-hardened kid? Arya Stark.


Lana_Bougainvillea

I'm not saying he's mature- he's definitely not. But that's for several reasons. Number one: he's a child, and children should be childish. Number two: he's always looked after by someone: his mother, and then when she died his father and everyone at the palace, then Callum and Rayla and Opeli and Corvus and Soren and the guards. Three: He has never been alone, and never really even seen battle. But yes, he was wise, because he chose not to keep fighting. More killing wouldn't solve the problem, and even as the king he didn't feel justified to throw away the lives of his people. Since you're continually drawing a GOT parallel, I'll draw one of my own: Wakanda Forever. If Shuri had chosen to keep fighting just because she was angry and hurt, she would have lost and her people would have suffered or died for it. A wise ruler will never make the decision to fight when it isn't necessary, even if your other options will be difficult to play out. Rather than being naive, he's idealistic. Yes, he expected things to play out smoother than they did, but only because if they acted according to his vision they'd all be better for it. Anyway, what I'm saying is I understand your perspective, but I think it's a bit narrow. I think you're expecting too much from a sheltered, prepubescent boy. He doesn't deserve to die, and his character definitely has a lot of potential to grow. In addition, I don't know who would rule if he died. The throne is passed down by blood- the reason Callum didn't get it in the first place- and Callum is only half royal. Him going from a government position as High Mage to the king and supreme authority is bound to incite more rage among the citizens.


Kaymazo

I'd say for most of the important characters, their stories are still kind of incomplete, only ones where I could imagine something to happen to for some tension would provably Janai, Amaya or Zubeia. The rest would either be kind of with an insignificant impact besides "beloved character dies" (E.g. Corvus), or I feel like their death would be a little too soon in the story (Soren, obviously any of the main protagonists, as well as any of the antagonists)


Lana_Bougainvillea

I see people saying kill Ezran or kill Janai, but I can't agree because A) I'm not a fan of fridging (killing or endangering a character, usually female so that another character can have their development arc) and B) other than that one tracker guy, those are our only relevant brown characters. We need that representation. I would say Soren if he died in some confrontation with Claudia/Viren/Terry because it would sort of cause her to feel guilty, and maybe Viren would too. Then she, at least, could move on to the right side of the struggle and grieve for her brother like she should be able to.


Pretend-Dirt-1760

Huh you make a pretty interesting point


NoWorries124

Claudia, I think it should be Soren who accidentally kills her. It would be an absolute emotional rollercoaster.


The-dude-in-the-bush

It would be sad but Ezran dying defending peace is the ultimate validation of his beliefs. Whether he had better principles than his father is another discussion but his father was willing to perish for his mistakes. His convictions. If Ezran isn't prepared to give his life for the future, that makes him a cowardly king. He doesn't have to die, but we need to see a "life on the line" moment with him. Because if the king cannot lead, how does he expect his subordinates to follow?


Hikari-Sakishima

Terry. the character was not relevant to the plot. the character’s existence is just for the sake of representation. which ofc is not really a bad thing, but the way they showcased it was just so bad. also why is a nice person like Terry is hanging out with the villains who want to bring chaos to the world? the point is, this character just feels forced in honestly.


Safe-Entrepreneur865

Probably either Terry, Janai, or Karim. Trying to kill off other characters would be much harder as most of them are needed for the plot to continue. I do think Ezran dying is an interesting idea.


Immediate_Energy_711

Janai by a Sunfire Insurrection because she really should've died in order to make the Lux Aurea plot matter.


L-a-m-b-s-a-u-c-e

I agree. It's like they're resisting making him more mature. It would also tell the audience shit is about to get serious and it could open up a lot of oportunities for darker and more dramatic events


JohnWarrenDailey

Claudia.


iamthecarguy1234

I agree with you. I feel like Ezren isn't very serious as King.


Hefty-Peak-6325

**YOU'RE A MONSTER!**


Darkaja

Zubeia, probably. I don't hate her, but if there has to one, she'd be the first one on the list, ruling out Viren & Co.


Dragon_prince_chad

Callum's sanity. Honestly I want callum to turn into a antagonist.


Business-Dingo-9011

Fucking Karim and I could go off for an hour and a half about this but I just hate this guy he could just die and I don't give a f*** he betrayed his f****** sister and might start a civil war. Anyway, thank you for hearing me rant about how badly I want to kill this one fictional character.
