All About Daenerys Targaryen
Daenerys Targaryen was born as a princess to King Aerys II Targaryen and his wife, Rhaella. She was one of the last survivors in the House of Targaryen.
She acts as the third-person narrator in the Game of Thrones, A Clash of Kings, A Storm of Swords, and A Dance with the Dragons. She was nicknamed the ‘Stormborn’ because she was born when a heavy storm had struck Dragonstone.
Sidenote: her full title is “Daenerys of the House Targaryen, the First of Her Name, The Unburnt, Queen of the Andals, the Rhoynar and the First Men, Queen of Meereen, Khaleesi of the Great Grass Sea, Protector of the Realm, Lady Regnant of the Seven Kingdoms, Breaker of Chains and Mother of Dragons”.
At her birth time, her father and her elder brother called Rhaegar had been killed in during the Robert’s Rebellion. Viserys, her brother takes charge of her after their mother’s death. She had been a guest for almost a half a year in Iiiyrio Mopatis in Pentos.
Daenerys DIY Costume Instructions
It is at this time that the Game of Thrones began. This article focuses on her personality, character, relationship, and role in the Game of Thrones. PLOT At the beginning of the story, she is a young girl in her early teen years. She is forcefully married off by her brother Viserys.
She is married off to a Dothraki warlord called Khal Drogo. Khal Drogo is offered Daenerys in exchange for an army. At the time of her betrothal, she becomes friends with a Jorah Mormont, who is an exiled Westrosi Knight. Jorah gives Daenerys three petrified dragon eggs as a gift for her wedding celebration.
Daenerys treasures these eggs and she keeps them well. Contrary to many people expectations, the marriage between Drogo and Daenerys turns out to be a happy one. Many would have expected that since it was an arranged marriage, it would turn out to be full of conflicts. Daenerys eventually ends up falling in love with Drogo. In fact, she willingly starts abiding by the Dothraki customs.
When Viserys attempts to gain her support in bullying Drogo, Daenerys firmly stands up against the act. When Drogo realizes the acts of Visery, Drogo takes molten gold and pours it over Viserys’ head. Viserys dies from this act. After Viserys’ dies, she sees herself as the viable heir of the Targaryen dynasty. She decides to claim her family’s throne. Meanwhile, Drogo gets wounded during a fight. He becomes ill. His warriors abandon him due to his sick state. This makes Daenerys very desperate.
She decides to hire an enslaved priestess Mirri Maz Duur. Duur is supposed to save Drogo through blood magic. Daenerys saves the priestess from a rape attack from the tribe warrior. The priestess still betrays her and makes the ritual magic lead to Daenerys’ stillbirth. The stillbirth worsens Drogo’s already sorry state. Daenerys cannot bear seeing her husband undergo the suffering. She, therefore, euthanizes him using a pillow.
During the funeral of Drogo, Daenerys burns the priestess. She climbs into the fire with her three dragon eggs. When the fire goes off the next morning, Daenerys comes out alive, unburnt, together with her three dragon eggs.
Khaleesi
Khaleesi is a Dothraki title that refers to the wife of the Khal. Since Daenerys was married to Khal Drogo, she was automatically designated the Khaleesi title.
Khaleesi can loosely be translated to mean a queen. Daenerys was a powerful Khaleesi, who was also referred to as ‘The Mother of the Dragons’ or ‘The Chain Breaker’. In the Dothraki customs, if the Khal dies, the Khaleesi is obligated to join crones that rule over the Vaes Dothrak. Daenerys refused to abide this tradition.
She after that declared herself a Khaleesi in her own right. When she was formally introduced, she made sure that Khaleesi was included in her many titles.

They powerfully brought out and displayed her character traits.
Her Personality
She was initially a naïve, shy and timid girl. She would rarely speak her mind out. Her timid character is possibly fueled by his brother Viserys, who often abused him.
She grew to be so brave than anyone ever imagined. She became the mother of Dragons and the breaker of chains. She has the bravery to make tough yet helpful decisions such as euthanizing Drogo. She dares to ask help from people around her.
For instance, she asks the priestess to help her with her ill husband. She understands that asking for help around does not make her weak. It, in fact, made her be stronger and gain tips on how to navigate through life.
Daenerys is a loving and a selfless being. She loves her husband unconditionally even after being married off to him, forcefully. She loves him in his sickness, and cannot bear the agony of seeing him in pain.
