The social media site released its new _Game of Thrones_ emojis simultaneously with HBO’s most recent [_Game of Thrones_ character posters](http://time.com/5541092/game-of-thrones-character-posters-melisandre/) on Thursday. To access each emoji, all Twitter users need to do is tweet out a character’s corresponding hashtag, such as #DaenerysTargaryen, #SansaStark or #NightKing. And considering most of _Game of_ _Thrones_‘ power players are known for their sharp tongues and quick wit, the emojis are perfect for throwing shade. For example, when you need to remind someone that they know nothing, the #JonSnow emoji is here to help. Or maybe you need to assert your dominance as the reigning boss b—ch. Well, #CerseiLannister is definitely your girl. _Game of Thrones_ returns for its eighth and final season on April 14. > [](https://twitter.com/GameOfThrones/status/1101176668411043840) > [](https://twitter.com/GameOfThrones/status/1101162038037045249) See the the full list of character hashtags below: #DaenerysTargaryen #JonSnow #NightKing #CerseiLannister #AryaStark #JaimeLannister #TyrionLannister #SansaStark #BranStark #BrienneOfTarth #DavosSeaworth #EuronGreyjoy #JorahMormont #Greyworm #Melisandre #Missandei #SamwellTarly #TheonGreyjoy #Varys #TheHound ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5541182/game-of-thrones-emojis/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5541182/game-of-thrones-emojis/"},"headline":"The New Game of Thrones Emojis Are Perfect for Throwing Shade at Your Enemies","datePublished":"2019-02-28T17:50:58.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:57:46.528Z","description":"Their reign has just begun","url":"https://time.com/5541182/game-of-thrones-emojis/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Television","game of thrones","TV","onetime","clickmonsters"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltd7b38b117f2ed3b8/698944ab22fb856232e27bab/game-of-thrones-season-8-photos-03.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Megan McCluskey","jobTitle":"Staff Writer","url":"https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltd7b38b117f2ed3b8/698944ab22fb856232e27bab/game-of-thrones-season-8-photos-03.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Game of Thrones Season 8 Photos","caption":"Lena Headeyas Cersei Lannister","creditText":"Helen Sloan—HBO","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5541182/game-of-thrones-emojis/","name":"The New Game of Thrones Emojis Are Perfect for Throwing Shade at Your Enemies"}}]}] ```
