I was derelict in failing to mention that JMS said specifically that
the character who will die is NOT Sinclair. As we have a plot to play
out with Vir, I suspect that the character slated for death is
Lennier. To support this conclusion, remember that I noted that JMS
said that a Minbari story wave will come next. As a further note, he
said that the actor slated for character death will probably return in
Narn or other makeup as a different, unrelated, but equally
interesting character.
