Game of Thrones: A Definitive Guide to Who's Still Alive

Given his distaste for fighting and violence, it's really quite amazing that Sam is still alive. As a member of the Night's Watch and Jon Snow's friend, he finds himself in many dangerous situations. Most notably, he hides behind a rock while caught in a stampede of White Walkers and even comes face to face with the terrifying Night King. He also encounters a White Walker after fleeing Craster's Keep with Gilly and actually kills it with a dragonglass dagger.
