HIGH POINTS | Forming and leading the Brotherhood Without Banners, wielding the coolest flame-covered sword in all of Westeros, getting resurrected by Thoros of Myr (six times!), joining up with Jon Snow in his battle against the white walkers.
LOW POINTS | Getting killed (six times!); selling out Gendry to Melisandre for a couple bags of gold; losing his friend Thoros and, therefore, his own ability to come back from the dead; being trapped on the Wall as the Night King and Viserion laid waste to it, though he and Tormund emerged unscathed.
CAUSE OF DEATH | Died valiantly in the castle halls during the Battle of Winterfell, after saving Arya’s life with a toss of his flaming sword. He was stabbed repeatedly by a barrage of wights, allowing Arya and the Hound to escape. (Seventh time wasn’t the charm, we guess.)
EPITAPH | Beric was a seasoned fighter and a philosophical sage who made the most of every minute of his six lives… and man, that flaming sword of his sure was cool.
