A new and very hot character might be joining the "Games of Thrones" family.

Actor/model Staz Nair, who has been linked to the show for about a month, might be playing one of the horse lords who surrounded Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke) in the season five finale. For those who need a refresher, Daenerys was saved from the Sons of the Harpy ambush by her dragon, Drogon. Drogon then brought her to another location where she ended up being surrounded by Dothraki men and their Khalasar (leader).

Based on Nair's Instagram posts, which include shots with several horses, many are speculating that he will be playing a Dothraki warrior, who might or might not be romancing Daenerys next season.

Rumors have claimed that New Zealand actor Joe Naufahu will be holding the Khal title. Naufahu reportedly has a recurring role in season 6.

These new characters are not expected to be a threat. According to Watchers on the Wall, the Dothraki warriors might be joining Daenerys' army.

Vanity Fair wrote:

"Jorah and Daario are hanging around camp hoping to rescue Daenerys. They may not have to... The biggest set report comes from a Spanish site which posted a very revealing photo that-based on the presence of director __Dan Sackheim in the accompanying story-has been pegged to either episode 3 or 4. Yes, that is a torched Dothraki structure and, yes, you can bet Drogon had something to do with it. (This is the building pre-Drogon.) According to a report from another Spanish site, Los Siete Reinos, Dany gets out of the conflagration unburnt, unbent, and unbroken, and with some loyal Dothraki followers."

"Games of Thrones" season 6 is set to premiere in the spring.
