'Game of Thrones' Author George R.R. Martin Wants to Murder You (In a Book)

'Game of Thrones' Author George R.R. Martin Wants to Murder You (In a Book) Isn't it everyone's dream to be murdered by George R. R. Martin?

The "Game of Thrones" author has an intriguing offer for fans: the chance to become a fictional character in the GoT universe, and to subsequently be fictionally killed off in a brutal fashion.

The offer comes as part of Martin's recent charity effort, which aims to raise money for both a local wolf sanctuary and food drive in Martin's native Santa Fe, New Mexico. "I've always been fond of wolves... direwolves in Westeros, and real wolves in the real world," Martin wrote on the Prizeo charity site. "US wolf populations hit critical lows during the twentieth century, and finding a way for humans to co-exist with this majestic creatures is an important part of the conservation movement."

Those who donate certain amounts will get some neat "Game of Thrones" themed prizes, like a signed map of Westeros ($450 donation) or tickets to the season five premiere of "Game of Thrones" ($7,500). But those who are high rollers can donate $20,000 (the "Martyr" level) and be made into a character in Martin's next book in the series, likely to be killed off in a spectacularly bloody way.

Of course, if you're more a sci-fi than fantasy person, you could always donate to J.J. Abrams' Omaze charity drive, for the chance to have a walk-on role in "Star Wars: Episode VII."

But for our money, we'd jump at the opportunity to have our eyes gouged out in a "Game of Thrones" book. Or our heads smashed in. Or our skulls melted by liquid gold. Or be lit up by wildfire, or a dragon. Or, you know, just a good old-fashioned wedding stabbing.
