The House of the Dragon will soon be upon us.

HBO‘s long-awaited sequel to their hit fantasy drama, Game of Thrones, is on its way to our screens. On Sunday, August 21, 2022, House of the Dragon will premiere. The series is set 200 years before the events of Game of Thrones and focuses on the story of the once-great House Targaryen, before the fall and usurpation of the Baratheons. House Targaryen, for those who do not know, is the house of dragons, the mightiest beasts of the world. With a lineage that bonds them to these mystical beasts, their nearly 300-year rule went unopposed as no force could match that of the dragons. But as Game of Thrones thought us, there are many ways to take the throne.

While you can wait for the premiere, it might be easier to get to know a bit about them ahead of time. Check out their character posters and descriptions below.

Kevin Fenix

Professional Nerd | Amateur Human | Creative/Content Director The best way to describe Kevin Fenix is the kid you never tell what the buttons do in video games so you have a chance to win. Being 6’ 4” and Asian, he never really fit in, so he got comfortable standing out. Not only is it easy to find him in crowds, he dabbles in the culinary arts, does a little stand up and improv, and can honestly say Spider-Man is the Jesus-like influence of his life. Kevin Fenix loves dogs, movies, television, comics, comedy, and to shoot people… with video.
