Biography
Background
Akho is a Dothraki warrior serving in the khalasar of Khal Moro.
Season 6
Akho and Qhono comment on Daenerys Targaryen as they are bringing her to Khal Moro.[2]
Once in Vaes Dothrak, Akho and his companion Iggo happen across Jorah Mormont and Daario Naharis as they attempt to infiltrate in the holy city. Akho sees through Jorah's claim to being a wine merchant and orders his companion to raise the alarm. Jorah attacks Akho but as both are unarmed, the younger and larger Dothraki begins to overpower the older Westerosi knight, beating him severely. Jorah attempts to blind Akho with a thrown handful of sand but misses. Akho seizes Jorah by the throat and begins to choke the life from him but is fatally stabbed in the back by Daario. To hide Akho's stab wound, as weapons are forbidden in the holy city, Daario repeatedly bludgeons Akho's corpse with a large rock.
Later, the great Khals discuss Akho's death. Khal Moro notes that Akho, a rider in his khalasar, served him well, yet nonchalantly dismisses his death for the way in which he was killed.[3]
In the books
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, so far there has been no Dothraki named Akho. However, Daenerys's storyline has surpassed the latest published novel, A Dance with Dragons, to Akho or an equivalent character may appear in the upcoming novels.
