Khal Drogo

Khal Drogo is a fictional character from George R.R.

Martin's *A Song of Ice and Fire* novels and the television adaptation *Game of Thrones*.

He is a powerful Dothraki warlord—*khal* being the Dothraki title for chieftain—who marries Daenerys Targaryen.

The character, known for his imposing physicality and warrior prowess, became a cultural touchstone for depicting dominant, non-Western warrior figures: He's got that Khal Drogo energy.
