House Lannister: Twins Ser Tyland and Ser JasonĪs Cersei and Jaime show in Game of Thrones, twins run in the Lannister line. By the time of Game of Thrones, it’s found its way into House Tyrell via Alerie Hightower who married Mace Tyrell and became the mother of Queen Margaery and Ser Loras Tyrell, both of whom died when Cersei blew up the Sept of Baelor and extinguished the Tyrell line. Hightower blood runs along important (but spoiler-filled, so we’ll stay vague) familial lines in the history of the Seven Kingdoms.

Ned’s sister Lyanna died in the tower giving birth to her and Rhaegar’s son, who was raised by Ned Stark as his own bastard, Jon Snow. In Season 6 episode ‘ Oathbreaker’, Bran watched his father Ned Stark kill Gerold Hightower, who was Commander of the Kingsguard for the Mad King Aerys II, and one of the knights guarding the tower containing Lyanna Stark, the lover of Prince Rhaegar Targaryen (Dany’s brother, killed in battle by Robert Baratheon). The only Hightower we really saw on Game of Thrones was in Bran’s flashback vision of Jon Snow’s birth at the Tower of Joy. They include recent widower Otto Hightower – Hand of the King to Viserys I, the father of Alicent and Gwayne, and the younger brother of Hobert Hightower, who swore fealty to Princess Rhaenerya at the end of episode one. The Hightowers are a powerful house allied to the Targaryens and the Tyrells of Highgarden in House of the Dragon. House Hightower: Targaryen and Tyrell Allies In Game of Thrones, the only surviving Targaryens are brother and sister Viserys (who died when Khal Drogo gave him a molten ‘golden crown’), Queen Daenerys (who died when Jon Snow murdered her after the sack of King’s Landing), their nephew Jon Snow/Aegon Targaryen – the secret child of Lyanna Stark and Viserys and Dany’s brother Prince Rhaegar, and the secretly-a-Targaryen Night’s Watch Maester Aemon.

We’ll keep this updated with new arrivals as the series continues.

The characters below feature in House of the Dragon episode one. To help us all keep it straight in our minds, here’s how the prequel bunch connect down the line to the Targaryens, Starks, Lannisters and Baratheons we already know. However, the majority of House of the Dragon’s characters are obviously ancestors of characters we’re familiar with from the original series. That means – centuries-old sorceress Melisandre aside – no character from one could possibly cross over into the other. New prequel House of the Dragon starts almost 200 years prior to that, in the year 101 AC, and then quickly jumps to nine years into the reign of King Viserys I.
