![]() There is nothing in the prophecy that says Azor Ahai is immortal. ![]() Martin twist if the savior of mankind was killed before he could actually save anyone. Stannis likely won’t come back to life, but it would be a perfect Game of Thrones/George R.R. Though Stannis is alive in the books, he is very much dead in the show, and his chances of revival are slim. Fire-breathing dragon beats fiery sword in GoT rock paper scissors, last time we checked.ĭrogo really could be the perfect Azor Ahai - if he wasn’t also so perfectly dead. He doesn't have a fiery sword, but he does a dragon that is named after him, Drogon. Before his death, he was planning on invading Westeros and that invasion would likely include ending the darkness that will envelope the country. As for everything else involved, it's hard to argue Drogo’s prowess as a warrior. Drogo did wake the dragon within her and is indirectly responsible for her becoming the great ruler she is today. It's also only after their marriage that Dany came into her own as a character and leader. But if Game of Thrones were to break all its rules and bring back a character who has been departed for years, Drogo could fit the Prince Who Was Promised build. Drogo’s death was not as central to the narrative as Ned Stark’s, but he has been six feet under for nearly as long. ![]() He’s the longest of long shots, as Khal Drogo has been dead for a very long time. So here are 15 Characters Who Could be Azor Ahai. Of course, there are some characters who are more likely than others. In essence, then the only real requirement for being Azor Ahai (in the small screen adaptation, anyway) is that this person must save the world against the White Walkers, so nearly every character on Game of Thrones may in fact be the legendary savior figure. Martin has always been clear about his prophecies not always being what they seem, so take all that with a side of skepticism. This being will wake “ stone dragons” and wield the mythical weapon, the fiery sword known as Lightbringer. Azor Ahai is a hero of myth who will be reborn to stand against “The Great Other,” AKA the Night’s King and his forces of darkness. There are several different translations of the prophecy foretelling Azor Ahai in the books, but in the season 3 Blu-ray's special features, the show’s version of the mythical hero was laid out in full. Though not nearly as prominent as it is in the text, the Prince Who Was Promised (or Azor Ahai) is very much a part of the lore of Game of Thrones. Yet one big prophecy has remained, the idea of the Prince That Was Promised. ![]() Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire in its adaptation of the story, opting for a more grounded depiction. HBO's Game of Thrones has exorcised quite a few of the more mystical elements from George R.R. ![]()
