House of the Dragon Season 2 is coming, and the civil war, known as the Dance of the Dragons, is happening between the blacks and the greens. So, who among the biggest characters in the series will join the Targaryen battle?

Aemond Targaryen’s dragon, Vhagar, made a huge mistake when it ate Lucerys Velaryon (Elliot Grihault) and his smaller beast, Arrax, setting up the huge war that is waiting to happen. The greens and the blacks are now preparing to gather their forces to strengthen their respective houses and support their monarch’s claim, so who will be the supporting characters introduced in House of the Dragon Season 2?

Cregan Stark

ScreenRant listed the possible characters fans will see in House of the Dragon Season 2, and it started with Cregan Stark, the ancestor of the famous Stark family from Game of Thrones. He’s the Lord of Winterfell and the Head of the House Stark.

He’s one of the blacks’ most powerful allies during the Dance of the Dragons. In the first season finale, Rhaenyra (Emma D'Arcy) sent Jacaerys (Harry Collett) and his dragon, Vermax, to Winterfell to have Cregan’s support.

According to George R.R. Martin’s book, Fire & Blood, where the series is based, they will strike a good and strong friendship, winning House Stark’s loyalty.

Simon Strong

Simon Strong is the late Hand of the King, Lord Lyonel Strong’s (Gavin Spokes) uncle, and the Lord of Harrenhal, Larys Strong (Matthew Needham), and his brother Harwin’s (Ryan Corr) great-uncle. He’s next in line to inherit Harrenhan and lives there as its castellan.

Though Simon’s loyalty is yet to be declared, he will reportedly play a major part in blacks’ move in House of the Dragon Season 2, considering Harrenhall is the next stronghold both parties want to have.

Hugh Hammer and Ulf White

Hugh Hammer and Ulf White are both bastards with Valyrian blood who live on Dragonstone and respond to Jacaerys’ call for dragonriders. Hugh Hammer has successfully tamed the gigantic and fiercely dragon Vermithor, whom Daemon sings to in the first season finale.

With these characters’ coming, the Targaryen civil war will surely be epic.
