"Game of Thrones" season 6 will include new characters from the book although season 5 is not yet done airing.
Showrunners have not revealed the names of characters joining the sixth season yet, but Watchers on the Wall claimed they are confident in identifying at least three from the list of role descriptions sent by reliable sources.
In the past, names of characters were leaked together with role descriptions. This time, fans are left to solve the casting riddle.
One of the rumored characters is Euron Greyjoy, Theon's uncle, who is next in line in ruling the Iron Islands. According to the role description, he is a pirate between 40 to 50 years old and feared around the world for his terrorist antiques. He is also described as ruthless and a little mad.
Another character to join the TV show is Randyll Tarly, Samwell's rude father. He is between 50 to 60 years old, daunting, humorless, and a martial disciplinarian both at home and in the field. He is also one of Westeros' greatest soldiers and his character will play a central role in the protagonists' plight.
The last identified character is Septon Meribald, the ex-soldier who pursued priesthood, about 40 or 50 years of age. He is the countryside, pro-poor priest whom Brienne and Podrick meet while traveling in the Riverlands.
Other fans guessed that the priest could be Aeron Greyjoy, the International Business Times reported.
A number of other characters, including a leading actress, fierce warrior, priestess, and three boys are left for the fans to identify until the next season starts.
