Looking online, it depends who you ask. Helen was supposed to be Zeus' daughter and Clytaemnestra was supposed to be the daugher of Leda's mortal husband. But then Castor and Pollux get involved, and someone hatches from an egg.
Willow: That's a work ethic! Buffy, you're developing a work ethic! Buffy: Do they make an ointment for that?

So, an excellent name for a cloning project.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I'm worried more about Cop Daddy. Stay alive, Cop Daddy!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Cop Daddy can die, so long as he appears in all of Laurel's Mirakuru hallucinations next season.

Dead-in--the-finale prediction:
Isabel: 90%. Unless they keep her on for next season and plan to give her some character development, but I'm not holding my breath.
Slade: 75%. I would love for him to be de-Mirakuru'd and given over to Amanda Waller so that he can join Suicide Squad but... uh, I feel like he's killed too many people?
Malcolm Merlyn: Um. 50%? I have no idea. *tosses a coin*
Sara: 55%. They've been writing toward her heroic self-sacrifice for half a season now. Other than my fondness for the character, I think it'd be a mistake to kill her off since she's got all interesting backstory to be mined. I don't think she'll stay on the show to become a regular, but having her go back with Nyssa to LoA would leave the door open for some fun plots in the next season. She can be the awesome recurring guest star!
Nyssa: 60%. If Sara lives, it would be because Nyssa sacrifices herself for her beloved.
Laurel: 20%. The producers are too married to the idea of her and Ollie to kill her off. Of all the characters, she'd be the one I won't be too sorry to lose.
Quentin: 30%. NOOOO DON'T DO IT.
Roy: 10%. They haven't really done much with the character yet, and he's got all that comic book backstory. Ehh. He's not my favourite.
Thea: 5%. C'mon, they're not gonna kill off both Oliver's mother AND the sister. This show can be grim, but it's not fucking nihilistic, yo.
Felicity and Diggle: 0%. BECAUSE I FORBID IT.
Ollie: Duh.

NO KILLING SLADE!
Deathstroke is too cool to die.
