Fallen Heroes

to the memory of Mr David Gemmell
Um druss and waylander, but in someways something i liked about Gemmell was his willingness to kill of major charachters and minor charachters you had just fallen in love with, something that made him so readable in a genre full of unkillable heroes. just my pennyworth
 
If Jaim had survived his character would not have been nearly as awe inspiering. The whole point of his was to show the true heroic spirit that Gemmell tries to place into his characters. Jaims basically epitomizes the character, and though I love Jaim if he didn't die he wouldn't be half the hero he became because of the manner of his .
 
Jaim Grymuch should have survied he was an awe inspiring character

Who was the commander of delnoch who survived to the end and later was turned into a warebeast. I think it was Orin?
Shame he went the way he did.
 
I would have to go with Nuada or Bison. I felt both had more to offer to the other characters however their deaths just added to the greatness of the books.
 
The whole point of these deaths though was to inspire. Also, because it suited the storyline.

Decado and Ananias? couldn't of survived as they would of gone against their best friend Tenaka when he attacked years later.

Jaim died to kickstart the Rigante reveloution.

Waylander died because it was the only way he'd be able to survive an encounter with the demon.

For me though, I would of preferred to see Kray survive the posioned bolt and fight Druss.
 
hah i'll say 3 people i wish would've survived. starting with two you probably have forgotten.

Gellan (or whatever his name was. from waylander novel) i thought he was a real great character in the making.
and Pagan. beast of a warrior!!!! killed 9 joinings by himself to save some children. maannn that is hardcore lol.

and of course. Waylander. he couldn't have died any better way because he got to save his family and ended up killing that real bad guy from hero in the shadows because the demon saw waylander was already dead. But if only he had somehow lived after saving his family *sigh*.
 
And the brothers from white wolf Nian and Jared. I loved Nian he was such a sweetheart and their death was so sad :(
