The Battle of the Bastards may be over, but Season 6 is not. Find out where these major “Game of Thrones” characters stand heading into the finale. Warning, spoilers ahead.
Daenerys Targaryen & Tyrion Lannister
Daenerys (Emilia Clarke) successfully quashed the rebellion in Meereen in Ep. 9, and now Tyrion (Peter Dinklage) will continue on as her adviser as she prepares to invade Westeros
Theon & Yara Greyjoy
Theon (Alfie Allen) and Yara (Gemma Whelan), the remaining children of Balon Greyjoy, made a pact with Daenerys for 100 ships if she helps them retake the Iron Islands from their mad uncle Euron (Pilou Asbæk)
Cersei Lannister
Cersei (Lena Headey) was counting on a trial by combat to settle her dispute with the High Sparrow (Jonathan Pryce), but instead she will face a group of septons
Margaery Tyrell
Margaery Tyrell (Natalie Dormer) was to stand trial just like Cersei, but she confessed her sins to the High Sparrow instead and was instrumental in naming him the new High Septon. But is her newfound faith real or false?
Jon Snow & Sansa Stark
Jon Snow (Kit Harington) and Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner) retook their ancestral home of Winterfell after the Battle of the Bastards. But they needed help from Lord Petyr Baelish (Aidan Gillen), who never does anything for free
Arya Stark
Arya (Maisie Williams) overcame a lot this season: blindness, beatings, and a brutal stabbing. But in the end, she bested The Waif (Faye Marsay) and settled her dispute with the Faceless Men, promising to return home
Brienne of Tarth & Podrick Payne
Brienne (Gwendoline Christie) and Pod (Daniel Portman) finally found Sansa and took up as her protectors. Once she was reunited with Jon, Sansa dispatched them to Riverrun to recruit what was left of the Tully army to fight for the North. Last we saw them, they were leaving Riverrun after the Blackfish (Clive Russell) died
Jaime Lannister
Jaime (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) got back together with his sister-lover Cersei and fought to retain their power in King’s Landing. But when the Blackfish retook Riverrun, he led the Lannister forces and retook the castle in the name of his family
Bran Stark
Bran (Isaac Hempstead-Wright) got overzealous in using his psychic powers, which led to a showdown with the Night’s King (Richard Brake) that left his trusted companion Hodor (Kristian Nairn) and the Three-Eyed Raven (Max Von Sydow) dead. Last we saw him, he had reunited with his resurrected uncle, Benjen (Joseph Mawle)
The Hound
Although he did not pop up until late in the season, Sandor “The Hound” Clegane (Rory McCann) made quite an entrance when he slaughtered several rogue members of the Brotherhood Without Banners and appeared to join the group in an effort to kill his brother, The Mountain (Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson)
