If you’ve spent any time at all as a fan of the “Game of Thrones” universe, you know just how tangled the character webs and family trees can get. That’s especially the case when it comes to the Targaryens, the twisted, intermarried, royal family of dragon-riders whose history is being explored in the prequel series, “House of the Dragon.”

If you’re wondering whether Daenerys, Jon Snow, or the Mad King will be in “House of the Dragon,” the answer is no. Based on George R.R. Martin’s book “Fire and Blood,” the spinoff series takes place centuries before the events that transpire in “Game of Thrones.” It recounts an era of civil war among the Targaryens over a disputed succession to the Iron Throne.

To help you keep track of who’s who, we’re breaking down the most important Targaryens you should know about. From the main characters like Rhaenyra, Daemon, and Viserys to a refresher on how the Targaryen dynasty plays into “Game of Thrones” centuries later, keep this handy to help keep track of all the major players, including Viserys and Alicent’s first two children, Aegon and Helaena, who’ve both been born by episode four.
