My favorite characters on The 100 that would and have had an affect on whether I will continue watching if something happened to them include;

1) LEXA (Number 1 favorite character in anything I ever encountered in my life and will always be number 1 despite the fact that she is 'supposedly' dead. Long live Heda.)

2) CLARKE (Love her and Clexa was life. At this stage if she died I would have to stop watching, there would be nothing left to watch for).

3) ABBY (I just love her relationship with Clarke because apart from Lexa she is the 2nd most protective person of Clarke. She's also a badass!)

4) ANYA (I know, also dead which is a sin that they keep killing off characters like her and Lexa. Anya rocked it, cool and calm one minute, fiery the next. The time that I got properly addicted to The 100 was the episode with Anya and Clarke in MW. Very disappointed we never got to see interaction between her and Lexa).

And that's it. At this stage anyone else that dies I couldn't care less.

However, characters that I currently think are essential add ons in the story from best down (in other words how expendable they are to me personally:


 * NB, this list is the one that is subject to change. Also to be clear, if any of these characters died or have died, I might be a little saddened or not at all. They are put in my preference of how their departure would negatively affect the story for me if they were gone. 1) being most significant negative impact all the way down to least impact but still important somewhat.

1) Roan (He's just great. Want to see more scenes with him and Clarke).

2) Raven

3) Octavia

4) Kane

5) Nyla

6) Lincoln (even though he is deceased I liked him)

7) Indra

8) Aden (loved him before he was killed)

9) Jasper

10) Monty 

11) Harper

12) Murphy

13) Bellamy (Used to be higher but due to his recent conduct in season 3, it has brought him down to the bottom of the list. He will be reviewed if Bellarke is forced to occur and he may be put in the characters I can't stand category. But as just a friend to Clarke and a nice face, he will continue to remain on this list unless that changes).

Characters I Can't Stand (number 1 being the one I can't stand most and going down to the ones I barely have any interest in).

1) Ontari (Bad apple, disrespected Lexa, slammed Clarke on table, stole Lexa's title and also, forced Murphy to sleep with her in Lexa's bed, eww. Overall had evil intentions as seen with her beheading the nightblood children including beloved Aden. Not only that but as a villain she was plain boring and 2 dimensional. At least with Pike you could hate him but be even mildly intrigued by what his train of thought was. Ontari turned out to be a complete waste of space and apologies to the actress but it wasn't up to scratch.)

2) Pike aka killer of grounders/tyrant dude

3) Monty's mother, annoying side kick to Pike/grounder hater/ generally not nice individual

3) Jaha (annoying as anything/crazy/seemingly linked somehow to almost everything that goes wrong. His departure would not be missed by me).

4) Titus (He would have served on my essential add ons list because he is so unique and interesting. However his murder of my girl Lexa and hatred of Clarke have made this something I cannot forgive). Excellent performance by Neil though, disappointed they ruined the moment because I thought his character should have been included more.

5) Finn (Used to rank at a lower level on my essential add ons list but moved to number 4 on my characters I can't stand list for cheating on Clarke and being such a stalkerish creep. Not to mention his slaughter of a grounder village including children. In hindsight, not much bothered by his departure. If he had not done those things and left Clarke alone, he would perhaps have saved himself from this list.)

6) Luna (Found her to be very moody and annoying. I have a feeling the actress is an expert at playing moody emo characters or is not actually putting in that much effort bcause she is in fact that way herself. Didn't like the way she dissed Lexa and Clarke. Overall not a character I could warm to never mind love. Nothing special here. And if they attempt to make her the "new Lexa" in any way, they will sorely regret it.

7) Nathan and Bryan ( I'm just going to merge these together because I know just as little about each of them other than the fact they are minor and random characters belonging to the Ark that just so happy to be gay too. The reason they are on this list is because it was blatantly obvious that knowing Lexa was going to be axed, Jason included them to try to defend the show's LGBTQ reputation. And yes, this is despite the crucial fact that it was a lesbian he killed and the crude manner in which he did it. So I found Nathan and Bryan's relationship had no effect in that repect. I also found it utterly ridiculous that just as Lexa dies, these two minor characters who I saw next to nothing of previously started getting an overly large amount of screentime just to show off their relationship and they are wrongly expecting me and others to buy it and to care about two characters who have up until this time, been completely irrelevant. And I hear season 4 may present yet another gay couple. Nathan and Bryan for me just highlight how truly biased and discriminatory this show can be. And Clexa at least tied in naturally with the main narrative because it still followed Clarke. But this is needlessly diverting from the main girl herself and for what? It needs to stop).

8) Nia of the Ice Nation. (She had to be on this list because she was despicable in her treatment of Lexa and her own son, sending warriors to hunt down Clarke and of course her beheading of a character that I would have liked to know more about, Costia. Despite all this however she ranks low on this list because she was a fascinating villain with lots of potential who ended up being killed far too soon).

9) Echo (A pest of a grounder, a liar and a snitch. As she has yet to have a significant enough role in the show for me to truly hate her, she will be down the bottom for now. But Echo is the most likely to make her way up this list from what I have heard regarding season 4).

Hopefully I haven't forgotten to include anyone else that's major. If new characters, particularly grounders show up that I take a shine to or immediately loathe then they will be included later. For example Kenza, the new nightblood in season 4, is someone that I am looking forward to analysing regarding where she belongs on these lists.
