* [[spoiler: Rakharo]] is killed, with hints from the showrunners that it was at the actor's request. Later in the season, [[spoiler: Irri]], the character's implied love interest on the show, was also killed off unlike their page-bound counterpart.
* [[spoiler: Pyat Pree]] and [[spoiler: Xaro Xhoan Daxos]] both get a KarmicDeath at the end of Daenerys' Qarth arc. Neither has died in the books.
* [[spoiler: Dagmer]], who is really an InNameOnly CompositeCharacter, receives an [[DroppedABridgeOnHim off-screen]] KarmicDeath while his namesake is still very much alive (and undeserving of such karma) in the novels. Ironically, this death is inflicted by one of the characters from whom he is composited.
* [[spoiler: Joyeuse Frey]] takes the place of an AdaptedOut character as the victim of a slashed throat in "The Rains of Castamere".
* [[spoiler: Talisa]] is killed despite her clear counterpart [[spoiler: Jeyne Westerling]] remaining very much alive as a possible ChekhovsGunman in the books.
* In "The Watchers on the Wall", [[spoiler: Pyp]] and [[spoiler: Grenn]] receive this on behalf of several minor characters who died in the books, most obviously Deaf Dick Follard and Donal Noye.
* [[spoiler:Jojen Reed]] in "The Children", who dies just before reaching the Three-Eyed Crow. In the books, he's still alive.
* [[spoiler: Mance Rayder]] in "The Wars to Come", who is executed by Stannis and Melisandre at Castle Black. In the books [[spoiler:Melisandre executes a decoy and lets Mance go in secret]].
* [[spoiler: Barristan Selmy]] gets stabbed at the end of "The Sons of the Harpy" and is confirmed dead at the beginning of "Kill the Boy". His book counterpart still has an important role to play in the [[spoiler: Meereen]] storyline.
* [[spoiler:Hizdahr zo Loraq]] is killed by the Sons of the Harpy in "The Dance of the Dragons," while in the book he is arrested by Barristan after the assassination attempt under suspicion of having planned it.
* [[spoiler:Shireen Baratheon]] is burned alive by Stannis in "The Dance of the Dragons, while in the book, she's still alive and is at Castle Black while Stannis began his siege at Winterfell.
* [[spoiler:Selyse Baratheon]] is also still alive as of ADWD.
* [[spoiler:Stannis Baratheon]] was killed by Brienne of Tarth in the Season 5 finale and his death was confirmed by Roose Bolton in the Season 6 premiere. His fate in the books remained unknown as Ramsey claimed in his letter to Jon Snow that he’s dead while he’s alive ''for now'' in Theon’s preview chapter in the upcoming ''The Winds of Winter'' planning for an assault against Ramsey.
* [[spoiler:Myrcella Baratheon]] is poisoned by Ellaria Sand just before returning to King's Landing in "A Mother's Mercy" and dies on the journey back. In the books, she barely makes it out alive after a crazed Dornish knight tries to kill her, losing her ear in the process. However, it's already foretold that she may meet her fate.
* With the exception of [[spoiler:Balon Greyjoy, Smalljon Umber, Kevan Lannister and Pycelle]], all of the characters who have died throughout Season 6 are still alive as of ''Literature/ADanceWithDragons''. As George R.R. Martin mentioned before in the foreword of ADWD that by the time ''The Winds of Winter'' will be released, more bodies will be dropped.
