Saddest character death.

It can be anywhere, book, comic, video game, movie, even theatre.
Anything you can think of.
The saddest character death for me so far was...
*major spoiler up ahead for game of thrones etc*

Robb Stark's death on the third installment in the game of thrones series.
I just found the way he died absolutely horrible (and the afternath was somewhat brutal), since i much liked the character.

Runner up: Rorschach's death on the Watchmen comic. It was my #1, since he died because he thought the truth wasn't meant to be kept secret, no matter the consequences (which in this case, were nuclear war).


So, name yours.

SPOILERS AHEAD

John Marston

John Marston's death was the saddest for me. In reality, all John Marston wanted to do was be with his family. That's what the game was about. John attempting to curry the government's favour to release his family --whom they had taken captive-- by killing the bandits of Southern Arizona, and Northern Mexico, most who he used to run with as a kid.

Cole's story is a sad, and a little bit of a enticing one. You'll have to look it up for me to really explain it for you.

All the deaths in Mass Effect 3.

See I didn't find his death too sad. Rowling wrote the character so that you hated him before he died. Honestly I don't think she hit hard enough to home. In a press release before the seventh book came out she said she was going to attack the people closest to Harry because "that's what the bad guys do." But at that point there was nobody really left and she couldn't kill Ron and Hermione. Honestly the whole thing was just a very bad self-insert fanfic.

I do have some character deaths of my own to propose:

Lenny from Of Mice and Men

Boromir in Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers

Rachel from Animorphs

Chopper from Ace Combat 5: The Unsung War

Tara from Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Wash in Serenity

Jiraiya in Naruto: Shippuden

Harriet Jones in series 4 of Doctor Who.

Practically every character in the Doctor Who episode "Water on Mars."

Toshiko, Ianto and Own from Torchwood.

Gwen Stacy from Spiderman (Peter killed her per the original comic)

Billy Pilgrim from Slaughter-House Five

Robert Paulson from Fight Club

Asuka from End of Evangelion

Chewbacca in Star Wars (Expanded Universe)

Ash Ketchum from Pokemon: the Movie

The Tenth Doctor

Kyoji Kasshu and The Undefeated of the East from G Gundam
