Who is Addam Velaryon?
Without spoiling much, Addam Velaryon is one of the most famous dragonseeds from Fire & Blood. As the name suggests, he is a Velaryon bastard, not confirmed yet fathered by who, legitimized and given knighthood during the civil war. He stays loyal to the Blacks till the end, even though Rhaenyra mistrusts his true intentions.
Addam also has a brother, Alyn, portrayed by the Raised by Wolves star Abubakar Salim. He has been confirmed to be filming in Wales, after he tweeted he is having fun playing the character.
I'm having a lot of fun playing Alyn.
Like a lot of fun.
