Jon Snow

Jon Snow, born Aegon Targaryen, was the son of Lyanna Stark and Prince Rhaegar Targaryen. From infancy, Jon was raised as the bastard son of Lord Eddard Stark, Lyanna's brother, alongside his lawful children; Robb, Sansa, Arya, Bran and Rickon Stark. However, his true parentage was kept secret from everyone, including Jon himself, in order to protect him from those who sought the complete annihilation of House Targaryen after Robert's Rebellion. Jon joined the Night's Watch to escape his bastard status and was eventually elected as the Watch's 998th Lord Commander, but was killed in a mutiny. However, he was soon after resurrected by the red priestess Melisandre, and left the Night's Watch after he reunited with Sansa to retake Winterfell in the name of House Stark. After his victory in the Battle of the Bastards, Jon was named King in the North by the Northerners, but abdicated his title after bending the knee to Queen Daenerys Targaryen in exchange for her support in the Great War. Jon fought tirelessly during the Great War, duelling the Night King himself on two occasions. Jon was fatally wounded in his second duel with the Night King, but lived long enough to see the Night King's death at the behest of his brother, Bran Stark, which was only made possible through Jon's blood. Jon's death, combined with that of Daenerys's, marked the final extinction of House Targaryen.
