Every Targaryen Who Appeared On House Of The Dragon And Game Of Thrones

On HBO Max's House of the Dragon, the series revolves around the lineage of the Targaryen family. Much of Game of Thrones also deals with this family tree as well. So throughout the airing of both of these shows, there have been plenty members of the Targaryen family who have appeared on screen. But who are all these Targaryens and what did we learn about them on each show? We have you covered, as we're showcasing every Targaryen that's been on either House of the Dragon or Game of Thrones.

For this look into all the Targaryens that have appeared on both House of the Dragon and Game of Thrones, we're taking a look at everyone that was a Targaryen at birth that has showed up on the series, not those who married into the family. There are a few exceptions here, primarily all the children of one of the stars of House of the Dragon.

And while the book Fire & Blood details everything you need to know about the Targaryens, we're leaving out the death dates for members of House of the Dragon--who haven't passed yet--to avoid possible spoilers and because we've already learned that the series has deviated from the book already. However, there are Game of Thrones spoilers in this, so you've been warned.

So check out every Targaryen to appear on House of the Dragon and Game of Thrones, and we'll keep updating this list as more Targaryen's pop up on House of the Dragon.

Born: 34 A.C.

Died: 103 A.C.

Seen briefly early on in House of the Dragon, setting up the story for the show. Jaehaerys was born three decades after his grandfather Aegon and his great aunts Visenya and Rhaenys took control of the Kingdoms. Jaehaerys was made king at 14 years old. He reigned for 55 years, the longest reigning king of the Iron Throne in all history, and it was a reign of peace and prosperity.

Born: 74 A.C.

While Jaehaerys was looking for an heir to the throne, after he passed away, it was between Rhaenys and her cousin Viserys, and Viserys got the job because of, to put it bluntly, misogyny. She married Lord Corlys Velaryon and is now known as "The Queen that never was," which probably hurts every time she hears it.

Born: 77 A.C.

The grandson of Jeahaerys, Viserys was chosen to be king, after his grandfather's long rule of peace. He also seems to have some sort of flesh-eating disease which he may have gotten after cutting his hand open on the Iron Throne.

Born: 81 A.C.

The brother of Viserys, Daemon is considered to be a threat to the realm by the Hand of the King. Daemon was forced to marry Rhea Royce, but wanted no part of that marriage. So Daemon left for Dragonstone with his mistress Mysaria, stealing a dragon egg in the process.

Born: ~90 A.C.

Rhaenyra's age has been changed significantly between Fire & Blood, as she's eight years younger in the book, born in 97 A.C., but in Episode 3 of House of the Dragon, she's 17. Regardless, she's the heir to the Iron Throne, and her friend, Alicent Hightower, married her father, Viserys.

Born: 105 A.C.

Died: 105 A.C.

The first born son of Viserys and his first wife Aemma--who died during childbirth--Baelon passed away shortly after coming into the world.

The first born son of Viserys and Alicent, Aegon II is just a baby when we first see him, then two years old in Episode 3.

Born: 110 A.C.

The middle child of Viserys Targaryen and Alicent Hightower, Aemond does not have a dragon of his own, and comes off as quite scared. He gets a well-known nickname later in life that we'll leave out here, for now.

Born: 114 A.C.

The eldest son between Rhaenyra Targaryen and Laenor Valaryon Ser Harwin Strong, Jace eventually becomes aware of who his birth father is at the end of Episode 6 of House of the Dragon.

Born: 115 A.C.

Born: 116 A.C. (In the book, unknown for the show)

One of the twin daughters of Daemon Targaryen and Laena Velaryon, Rhaena did not have a dragon--while her mother was alive--and desperately wants one, but it seems that's moreso to be like the rest of her family. The twins' ages were changed for House of the Dragon, as they are now both older than Lucerys and possibly Jacaerys.

Born: 116 A.C. (In the book, unknown for the show)

She is one of the twin children of Daemon Targaryen and Laena Velaryon. Her character didn't receive a lot of screen time when she first appeared in Episode 6. The twins' ages were changed for House of the Dragon, as they are now both older than Lucerys and possibly Jacaerys.

The third born child from Rhaenyra Targaryen is shown at the beginning of Episode 6. It's probable he was born a couple years later than his counterpart in the books.

Died: 300 AC

He's the Targaryen you forget is a Targaryen in Game of Thrones because he's not totally off his rocker. Aemon passed on being King, passing it onto his brother Aegon, because he was a maester, and that would go against his vows. Aemon joined the Night's Watch after this, where he ultimately died at Castle Black at 102. Aemon was the uncle of Aerys II.

Born: 244 A.C.

Died: 283 A.C.

The last Targaryen king before the events of Game of Thrones, he had succumbed to the madness that affects the Targaryen lineage when he was king. This led to his Hand, Tywin Lannister, turning on Aerys, which ended with Tywin's son, Jaime, stabbing him in the back, killing him.

Born: 259 A.C.

Died: 283 A.C.

The oldest son of Aerys II, Rhaegar was in love with Lyanna Stark, and the two secretly wed--and had a baby in secret.

While Viserys Targaryan is the king in House of the Dragon, we're actually talking about his ancestor, the entitled, bratty brother of Daenerys in Game of Thrones. During the sacking of King's Landing, Viserys took his infant sister across the Narrow Sea to the Free Cities, as Viserys claimed he was the King, not Robert Baratheon. After using his sister as a bargaining chip, marrying her off to Khal Drogo, he wore out his welcome, and ended up being bathed in molten gold.
