'Game of Thrones': These lesser known characters will play a pivotal role in the final season

'Game of Thrones' returns with the final season on April 14 and we can expect George R. R. Martin to throw a few curveballs as he wraps us the saga
UPDATED JAN 23, 2019

'Game of Thrones' has one of the largest ensemble casts on television and it introduced us to many characters that we came to know and love — before they were killed off ever so suddenly.

While most of the human characters on the show inspire little faith in humanity because of their propensity for treachery and backstabbing, the show's vast universe would seem incomplete without the giants, humanoids, witches, and, of course, the dragons. It is these characters that make the series truly remarkable and are sure to play a pivotal role in the upcoming final season.
