Occasionally, you'll find continuity errors with this math, like when Sansa tells Tyrion she's 14 on their wedding night in Season 3, when math would suggest she should be 15 by then, but for the most part we can assume that one year of TV time equaled one year on the timeline.

Close Ad. Live TV. In the first season of the series, Bran was deemed to be 10 years old, Arya 11, and Sansa Robb Stark and Jon Snow are the same age as one another. In the book, they're both In the HBO series, two years were added, making them both 16 year olds on the cusp of adulthood. At just 13, Daenerys Targaryen is also exceedingly young in the books. Seeing as she's swiftly married off to Khal Drogo and is at the centre of a few sexually explicit scenes, the Game of Thrones bosses at HBO decided to make her 17 , as Metro reports.
For those wondering how Daenerys' age was determined, Metro also notes that the first season of the series was set 17 years after Robert Baratheon's rebellion. And now, let's turn to those who are no longer with us. Joffrey Baratheon — may he not rest in peace — is but a year-old boy at the start of the book series, the Guardian reports.
In keeping with his vicious and violent personality, the show cranked up his age to Margaery Tyrell, meanwhile, is 14 in the books and 16 in the TV series. Matters were complicated further by certain fan-favorites varying considerably in age compared to their original book counterparts.

Here are all the intended ages of the characters in Game of Thrones , based on character descriptions, dialogue references, information from the books and the in-show timeline.

Clearly, knowing nothing and saying " I don't want it " isn't good for the skin. Jon in Martin's original books is a couple of years younger still.
The relative ages of Daenerys Targaryen closely mirror those of Jon Snow. Although Emilia Clarke's character in the novels was 13 at the story's beginning, the Mad Queen is aged by a few years in order to make her romantic and naked exploits less creepy.
Daenerys is the same age as Jon in the Game of Thrones series, give or take a few months, and this matches the actor and actress, with Clarke born only 2 months before Harington. Tyrion's age is one of the more confounding among Game of Thrones ' leading cast members because the character is confirmed to be the youngest of the Lannister children , but Peter Dinklage is older than both Lena Headey and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau.
