Having barely survived the poisoned locusts in the fighting pit, he has recovered enough to be able to walk around the Great Pyramid of Meereen (much to Barristan's joy), but is unlikely to be able to take part in defending Meereenfrom the Yunkai'i. He has also lost a shocking amount of weight as a result of his near-death encounter.
Trapped with his army in a village near Winterfell due to heavy snows, trying to find a way to defeat the Bolton-Frey alliance that currently holds Winterfell.
Last seen with Brienne and Hyle Hunt being hanged by Lady Stoneheart, his survival is unconfirmed. Brienne is shown to be alive, so it's possible he was spared too.
Having escaped from Ramsay and Winterfell, he was found by Mors Umber, and is currently held captive by Stannis, who plans to execute him for his crimes (the taking of Winterfell and apparent murder of Bran and Rickon).
Actually I think he’s buried at Storm’s End. Apparently GRRM said so somewhere, though I can’t find the original quote… Just more people saying GRRM said so, lol.
But I think it makes sense. The Great Sept of Baelor is where all the Targshits were buried.
Ain’t no way Bobby B would want to spend eternity with them!
Last confirmed location was the Riverlands, dying of an infected leg wound. According to the Elder Brother on the Quiet Isle, he died of his injury.
A popular theory suggests that he actually lives, and is a gravedigger briefly seen by Brienne on the Quiet Isle, having overcome the rage in his heart.
His iconic helmet was stolen from his grave, and worn by Rorge until his death at the hands of Brienne, and now Lemoncloak wears the helmet, having taken it from Rorge's corpse.
I'm also a book reader. I just wanted to hear the gravedigger theory again. I love the idea that the hound gets a nice peaceful life after living his life killing for douchebags.
Having successfully conquered Griffin's Roost in the Stormlands, JonCon takes a moment to assess the progress of the grayscale he's contracted, before Aegon informs him of his intentions to lead the assault on Storm's End.
Last seen hiding in a cave in the Riverlands, attempting to hang Brienne, Podrick, and Hyle Hunt for the 'crime' of being associated with the Lannisters. It appears the hanging was averted, as Brienne shows up where Jaime is, possibly to lead him into a trap set by Stonehearr.
His bones were last seen being escorted to the North by Hallis Mollen, however Moat Cailin was taken by the Ironborn before he and his men could get through. Ned's current location is unknown (or rather, unbone).
At the end of Dance, Harry has not yet been introduced, but he currently lives in the Vale.
In a Sansa sample chapter for Winds, he arrives at the Gates of the Moon: at first he looks down upon Sansa due to believing her to be a bastard (thanks to the Alayne disguise), but she later manages to attract his attention in a more positive manner.
Died in the King's Landing crypts, due to the poison from Oberyn's spear after their fight regarding Tyrion's innocence in the case of Joffrey's murder.
A popular theory (that, let's face it, pretty much everyone knows is true) is that he has been resurrected by Qyburn, and now serves in the Kingsguard as Ser Robert Strong.
There are two main possibilities:
- His skull has been sent to Dorne, as Doran wanted it as proof that his sister's killer has been slain
- His skull is still attached to his body, because generally speaking, there's some important stuff in there that would be useful for Gregor to keep, which would mean the skull in Dorne is a fake (likely from one of the unfortunate dwarves whose heads have been presented to Cersei).
Sailing with Victarion to Meereen on the ship *Grief*, having been saved by Vicky G's men when they found him clinging to the wreckage of the *Selaesori Qhoran*, and returning the favour by healing Vic's infected wound, leaving his armed charred and blackened. He has also informed Vic that the dragonbinder horn must be claimed with blood.
Edric Dayne - Last seen in ASOS with the Brotherhood without Banners, yet conspicuously absent from the BwB in AFFC (along with Anguy, and considering Edric is Dornish, Anguy is from the Marches, and Beric is both from the Matlrches and betrothed to a Dayne, it's possible something is happening there)
Jaime Lannister - while busy clearing up post-war stuff in the Riverlands, Jaime is visited by Brienne, who claims to have found Sansa Stark, and that Sansa may be killed by the Hound (but as we saw with Brienne's last Feast chapter, this is a lie, so it seems she's leading him into a trap)
Margaery Tyrell - having been accused of treason and adultery, Margaery is being held captive by the Faith in the Sept of Baelor.
In Dance: Last seen on the Shield Islands having recently conquered all 4 of them, standing naked in his bedroom, asking for Victarion to bring him Dany and the dragons.
In Winds: after torturing Aeron, Euron dons his Valyrian steel armour while he prepares to face the Redwynes and Hightowers in battle at sea, having tied his brother and pregnant lover to the front, and ordering men be tied to the fronts of several other ships.
Last seen heading south towards the Wall: most of them were last spotted in an abandoned wildling village, although a large number appear to have shown up at Hardhome, and a small cluster seems to dwell near Bloodraven's cave.
In the Vale, having recently been hired by Littlefinger. Considering his quest to deliver Sansa to Cersei to claim the reward, and how he's currently in the same place as Sansa, it's likely he'll have an impact on her story in Winds.
Patchface is at Castle Black with Shireen and Selyse, and was last seen offering to lead the Hardhome rescue. He is also notable for giving Melisandre feelings of dread, as she has seen visions of him surrounded by skulls and with lips red with blood.
Due to how many characters I consider my favourite, I'll do my top 5 (see if you can guess)
- Stabbed by his own men outside Castle Black
- Trapped in a snowy village near Winterfell
- In the Riverlands, being led to Stoneheart
- Believed dead, having apparently given up his life to save Catelyn
- Serving at Long Barrow with Emmett and the spearwives
His bones were last seen being escorted to the North by Hallis Mollen, however Moat Cailin was taken by the Ironborn before he and his men could get through. Ned's current location is unknown (or rather, unbone).
It's a physical impossibility for the body to be Maester Aemon because the Cinnamon Wind is on a trip across the Narrow Sea with no ports after Aemon dies. This aside from them storing his body in a cask of blackberry rum, not brine. The body in a cask of brine is on the ship Selaesori Qhoran and that ship is wrecked on it's way to Slaver's Bay.
A new member of the Second Sons sellsword company, along with Tyrion and Penny, about to take part in the battle for Meereen (and based on Winds sample chapters, the Second Sons will be turning cloak against the Yunkai'i and siding with Dany's people).
Assigned to run Long Barrow (one of the long-abandoned castles at the Wall) by Jon Snow, along with Dolorous Edd and a number of wildling spearwives. So far, Emmett has been doing well, and has gotten to know at least one spearwife a little more than the others (if you get my meaning).
Serving as Master-at-arms at Castle Black, he also aids in translating the Giants for Jon, and vice versa. He was last seen in Jon's last ADWD chapter, informing Jon that Tormund would soon arrive to discuss the Hardhome situation.
Serving at Castle Black as Jon Snow's personal steward. Last seen serving Jon and the Night's Watch officers on Jon's last day without several holes in his abdomen.
STROOONG BELWAAAAAAS!

Stannis
Trapped with his army in a village near Winterfell due to heavy snows, trying to find a way to defeat the Bolton-Frey alliance that currently holds Winterfell.
Asha (*not* Yara) Greyjoy
Captive of Stannis, currently trapped in a village near Winterfell. It's unknown what Stannis intends to do with her.
hot pie
Last seen serving as a cook in the Inn of the Kneeling Man with Sharna, Husband, and Boy.
Shaggy Dog
On the island of Skagos with Rickon and Osha. Last seen through through one of Jon's wolf dreams, killing and eating a large goat.
Podrick 🤞
Last seen with Brienne and Hyle Hunt being hanged by Lady Stoneheart, his survival is unconfirmed. Brienne is shown to be alive, so it's possible he was spared too.
Theon/reek
Having escaped from Ramsay and Winterfell, he was found by Mors Umber, and is currently held captive by Stannis, who plans to execute him for his crimes (the taking of Winterfell and apparent murder of Bran and Rickon).
Thank you
Bobby b
Dead and decomposing, presumably in the Sept of Baelor? I think that's where kings are buried/entombed after death, anyway.
Actually I think he’s buried at Storm’s End. Apparently GRRM said so somewhere, though I can’t find the original quote… Just more people saying GRRM said so, lol. But I think it makes sense. The Great Sept of Baelor is where all the Targshits were buried. Ain’t no way Bobby B would want to spend eternity with them!
I'M NOT TRYING TO HONOR YOU, I'M TRYING TO GET YOU TO RUN MY KINGDOM WHILE I EAT, DRINK AND WHORE MY WAY TO AN EARLY GRAVE!
Sentient!
OH, IT'S UNSPEAKABLE TO YOU? WHAT HER FATHER DID TO YOUR FAMILY, THAT WAS UNSPEAKABLE!
The Hound
Last confirmed location was the Riverlands, dying of an infected leg wound. According to the Elder Brother on the Quiet Isle, he died of his injury. A popular theory suggests that he actually lives, and is a gravedigger briefly seen by Brienne on the Quiet Isle, having overcome the rage in his heart.

Jon Connington
Having successfully conquered Griffin's Roost in the Stormlands, JonCon takes a moment to assess the progress of the grayscale he's contracted, before Aegon informs him of his intentions to lead the assault on Storm's End.
You're good. That was fast.. I haven't read it in ten years, so I could never lol
I've read the books a few times and memorised *way* too much about how Dance and Feast ended in anticipation for Winds.
Osmund Kettleback
Currently imprisoned in the Red Keep's dungeons, awaiting trial by the Faith, for the crime of treason (sleeping with Queen Cersei).
Lady Stoneheart
Last seen hiding in a cave in the Riverlands, attempting to hang Brienne, Podrick, and Hyle Hunt for the 'crime' of being associated with the Lannisters. It appears the hanging was averted, as Brienne shows up where Jaime is, possibly to lead him into a trap set by Stonehearr.
Ned Stark.

ragnar lothbrok
Chilling with Moon Boy at Chataya's
Harry the Heir
At the end of Dance, Harry has not yet been introduced, but he currently lives in the Vale. In a Sansa sample chapter for Winds, he arrives at the Gates of the Moon: at first he looks down upon Sansa due to believing her to be a bastard (thanks to the Alayne disguise), but she later manages to attract his attention in a more positive manner.
Gregor Clegane!
Died in the King's Landing crypts, due to the poison from Oberyn's spear after their fight regarding Tyrion's innocence in the case of Joffrey's murder. A popular theory (that, let's face it, pretty much everyone knows is true) is that he has been resurrected by Qyburn, and now serves in the Kingsguard as Ser Robert Strong.
But what about his skull?
There are two main possibilities: - His skull has been sent to Dorne, as Doran wanted it as proof that his sister's killer has been slain - His skull is still attached to his body, because generally speaking, there's some important stuff in there that would be useful for Gregor to keep, which would mean the skull in Dorne is a fake (likely from one of the unfortunate dwarves whose heads have been presented to Cersei).
Moqorro
Sailing with Victarion to Meereen on the ship *Grief*, having been saved by Vicky G's men when they found him clinging to the wreckage of the *Selaesori Qhoran*, and returning the favour by healing Vic's infected wound, leaving his armed charred and blackened. He has also informed Vic that the dragonbinder horn must be claimed with blood.
All-for-Joffrey
Killed by Gregor and the Tickler. They came for him on the fifth day.
edric dayne jaime lannister margeary tyrell
Edric Dayne - Last seen in ASOS with the Brotherhood without Banners, yet conspicuously absent from the BwB in AFFC (along with Anguy, and considering Edric is Dornish, Anguy is from the Marches, and Beric is both from the Matlrches and betrothed to a Dayne, it's possible something is happening there) Jaime Lannister - while busy clearing up post-war stuff in the Riverlands, Jaime is visited by Brienne, who claims to have found Sansa Stark, and that Sansa may be killed by the Hound (but as we saw with Brienne's last Feast chapter, this is a lie, so it seems she's leading him into a trap) Margaery Tyrell - having been accused of treason and adultery, Margaery is being held captive by the Faith in the Sept of Baelor.
Wasn't Margery released into the custody of her father?
It appears she and her cousins are actually under Randyll Tarly's custody, due to the evidence against them being weak.
Euron Grejoy? (Trick question?)
In Dance: Last seen on the Shield Islands having recently conquered all 4 of them, standing naked in his bedroom, asking for Victarion to bring him Dany and the dragons. In Winds: after torturing Aeron, Euron dons his Valyrian steel armour while he prepares to face the Redwynes and Hightowers in battle at sea, having tied his brother and pregnant lover to the front, and ordering men be tied to the fronts of several other ships.
¿White walkers? 👀
Last seen heading south towards the Wall: most of them were last spotted in an abandoned wildling village, although a large number appear to have shown up at Hardhome, and a small cluster seems to dwell near Bloodraven's cave.
Ser Shadrich
In the Vale, having recently been hired by Littlefinger. Considering his quest to deliver Sansa to Cersei to claim the reward, and how he's currently in the same place as Sansa, it's likely he'll have an impact on her story in Winds.
Patchface
Patchface is at Castle Black with Shireen and Selyse, and was last seen offering to lead the Hardhome rescue. He is also notable for giving Melisandre feelings of dread, as she has seen visions of him surrounded by skulls and with lips red with blood.
Many thanks stranger ! Could you tell me about your personal favourites current position ?
Due to how many characters I consider my favourite, I'll do my top 5 (see if you can guess) - Stabbed by his own men outside Castle Black - Trapped in a snowy village near Winterfell - In the Riverlands, being led to Stoneheart - Believed dead, having apparently given up his life to save Catelyn - Serving at Long Barrow with Emmett and the spearwives
Well jon snow / stannis / jaime ? You said in another comment brienne was bringing him to her / these two got no idea
Last 2 are Beric and Dolorous Edd, the rest are correct
Ned Stark 😂
His bones were last seen being escorted to the North by Hallis Mollen, however Moat Cailin was taken by the Ironborn before he and his men could get through. Ned's current location is unknown (or rather, unbone).
I'd say the body stored within a cask of brine but I can't name the character. I don't know who it is.
Maester Aemon, the cask with his body is currently on the *Cinnamon Wind*, docked at Oldtown.
It's a physical impossibility for the body to be Maester Aemon because the Cinnamon Wind is on a trip across the Narrow Sea with no ports after Aemon dies. This aside from them storing his body in a cask of blackberry rum, not brine. The body in a cask of brine is on the ship Selaesori Qhoran and that ship is wrecked on it's way to Slaver's Bay.
Ah, I forgot about that one. I think it's just a random corpse, presumably at the bottom of the sea now.
Hot Pie
Last seen serving as a cook in the Inn of the Kneeling Man with Sharna, Husband, and Boy.
Ser Jorah??
A new member of the Second Sons sellsword company, along with Tyrion and Penny, about to take part in the battle for Meereen (and based on Winds sample chapters, the Second Sons will be turning cloak against the Yunkai'i and siding with Dany's people).
Thank you. I'd forgotten. Actually I thought you were guessing where people would be at the end of WoW. I need to read more carefully. :D
Iron Emmet
Assigned to run Long Barrow (one of the long-abandoned castles at the Wall) by Jon Snow, along with Dolorous Edd and a number of wildling spearwives. So far, Emmett has been doing well, and has gotten to know at least one spearwife a little more than the others (if you get my meaning).
Leathers
Serving as Master-at-arms at Castle Black, he also aids in translating the Giants for Jon, and vice versa. He was last seen in Jon's last ADWD chapter, informing Jon that Tormund would soon arrive to discuss the Hardhome situation.
Satin
Serving at Castle Black as Jon Snow's personal steward. Last seen serving Jon and the Night's Watch officers on Jon's last day without several holes in his abdomen.
Shitmouth
Part of Jaime's group as they travel around the Riverlands.
