Elimination Fodder

A character in an elimination based show (typically object shows) who's only real purpose is to be eliminated before the important characters, in order to give the important characters more time on the show to develop.

"Character 1 obviously isn't getting eliminated this episode, they're in the middle of a character arc! I think Character 2 is gonna get eliminated, they're just elimination fodder anyway..."
