In the TV series, her three bloodriders are Aggo, Rakharo, and "Kovarro" -- Jhogo was apparently renamed to avoid confusion with [[Jhaqo]], one of Drogo's ''kos'' who after Drogo is incapacitated declares himself Khal and takes a portion of the khalassar as his own. Jhaqo thus becomes a bitter enemy to Daenerys, so Jhogo was renamed to "Kovarro" to keep his name distinct. |

Meanwhile, Jhogo/Kovarro in the TV series is now (slightly) older than TV-Rakharo, and it is Kovarro who has a moustache. Besides this name switch, the two characters are not particularly different from their characterization in the books. |

History
Season 1
Qotho, Cohollo, and Haggo serve as Drogo's bloodriders.[1]
Season 2
Daenerys sends her three bloodriders, Rakharo, Kovarro, and Aggo to ride away until they find a city or the sea.[2]
In the books
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, the title of bloodrider carries great prestige within a khalasar. Bloodriders seat next to the Khal in feasts and ceremonies. They may also share the Khal's wife, but never his horse. A bloodrider may also be a ko, commanding a subdivision of the khalasar.
If a khal is killed, bloodriders are expected to avenge him. Once done, their last service is to escort the Khaleesi to Vaes Dothrak to join the Dosh khaleen. Then they are to join the khal in death.
Daenerys' bloodriders are Aggo, Jhogo and Rakharo. So far in the books they are all alive and well.
