/* ----- VIDEO INFORMATION ----- */

Ok so Aemond Targaryen is probably my favourite character in the House Of The Dragon storyline. An almost perfect opposite to Daemon he's one of the most cunning people in all of Westeros and I thought I'd make a video discussing why he's so important. Throughout this video we're gonna be going over his backstory, what lies ahead with him and why we love him so much.

Obviously full spoilers ahead for the book so if you don't wanna know then you've gotta go. If you enjoy the video then please hit the thumbs up button and also don't forget to subscribe for breakdowns on the series every week.

With that out the way, thanks for clicking this, now let's get into House Of The Dragon.

-

Now as we touched upon earlier, Aemond is the perfect opposite to Daemon on a number of levels. Not only do their names sound similar but their brothers also end up becoming the King. In the book Alicent puts together a plan to oust Rhaenyra after the death of Viserys and it looks like the show is following the same route.

This sets up the dynamic so that both Aemond and Daemon are very much opposites to one another and throughout the storyline we see as they become bitter rivals.

Both are skilled swordsmen, brilliant strategists and Aemond stole Daemons ex wifes dragon just to add some salt in the wound. This creates a heated rivalry between the two that we'll discuss the outcome of later in the video.

This was teased at during the banquet and it extends far beyond just being involved in food fights.

As we've seen in the series Aemond was often overlooked when he was younger and the book details how when he was born he was half the size of his brother Aegon. Constantly pushed around by him this created a fire within that slowly drove him to become more and more ambitious. Whereas Aegon had everything handed to him on a plate Aemond had to fight for everything in his life and this carved out an incredibly fierce character who would accomplish several things in his childhood.
