Illustrator Julia Lepetit of Dorkly came up with a clever [flowchart](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charts-not-chapters) that depicts whether or not your [favorite movie or TV show character](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mbti-characters) will die; that way, you can avoid getting too attached from the get-go.
