This is (obviously) the fictional edition of my other hit thread, Name That Dead Guy!
This has similar rules to the other one but with a few changes to make things fair. You are not allowed to use a dead from a book/movie/whatever as your dead guy and say he's dead only because the book/movie/whatever takes place in a time that ensure's he's dead by now. If you're doing someone from, say Lord of the Rings or Elder Scrolls lore however, then that's a different story assuming that they're dead by the time of another book/game.
It's not a rule, but please be considerate of other people. If you have any decency then you won't pick a character from a new and trending show/movie/whatever (I.E. try not to spoil things).
People who are dead in the beginning of a crime solving show and have no real part are strictly prohibited as that would just be cruel.
The other rules are in the other thread which I linked to. I can't think of any other rules at the moment, if I do I'll post them.
Right, so I don't read all that much, there are only a few fictional things that interest me too terribly much and some of that will be pretty easy, and I don't want that, so I'll probably be sticking mostly to obscure (but not too obscure) Elder Scrolls characters. Whether they are just in lore or in the games.
I am thinking of a dead lady from the Elder Scrolls, not exactly obscure, but I rather doubt it'll be quickly guessed. For this one, I even allow you to use the Elder Scrolls wiki as an aid for your guessing. Good luck and good guessing!
Harry Potter related? Ha! This'll be a quick one for sure.
Was it Grindlewald? Was he still evil when he died? Did he have any Horcruxes? Is he actually in any of the books or is he someone who's only mentioned? When you say he tried to prolong his life does that mean helping Voldimort to try to prevent being killed? Was it Gregoravich (note: I used the wikia but only because I couldn't remember his name)? Had said dead person ever been in Askaban? Was said dead guy Male? Was he/she human? Griphook? Teddy Tonks? Was he/she a good guy?
Wait, I'm confused after that triple question, was it Harry Potter related? When you say sorta alien does that mean he simply wasn't human?
I'm thinking of a character from a TV show that is still very popular today, who was the father of the show's main character and was originally from another country.
Does the show still air new episodes? Has the show been on TV for longer than a decade? Is the show animated? Was the deceased character a regular character on the show? Is the show a drama? Comedy? Sci-fi? Other? Is it on Netflix?
An animated comedy show that took a few years off that's still airing new episodes? Sounds a lot like... Family Guy!
Since Peter Griffin is the main character, I would have to say either Francis Griffin or Mickey McFinnegan. Since Mickey only appears in one episode and is presumably still alive, while Francis dies in the same episode, my guess is Francis Griffin... even though he's not technically Peter's real father!
Was the movie a comedy? Action? Romantic? Is the book from which it derived still popular today? Was the character in the book or added for the movie? Was the actor who played him a big name actor?
