Qotho is a recurring character in Game of Thrones. He is played by guest star Dar Salim and débuts in the first episode of the first season. He only appears in the first season.

Qotho is a Dothraki bloodrider in the service of Khal Drogo. He is one of Drogo's closest allies and a stalwart warrior.

Season 1

Qotho accompanies Khal Drogo on his 'viewing' of his bride, Daenerys Targaryen. Qotho is present for the wedding of Drogo and Daenerys. When a drunken Viserys threatens Daenerys and her unborn child, Qotho breaks his arm and then restrains him whilst Drogo pours molten gold over his head, killing him.

Qotho is present when Drogo declares that he will lead the khalasar across the Narrow Sea and invade Westeros in vengeance for the attempted assassination of Daenerys. Qotho participates in the Khalasar's raid of a village in Lhazar, a peaceful country to the south-east of Vaes Dothrak.

When Drogo's wound festers and he becomes seriously ill, Dany calls for Mirri Maz Duur. Mirri says that only bloodmagic can be of avail, and she needs to kill Drogo's horse in order to save Drogo. Qotho objects. A fight ensues; Qotho pushes Dany to the ground, provoking her to go into labour, and Ser Jorah Mormont tries to stop Qotho, and manages to kill him.
