House Of Dragons
So it is not a secret that after arriving Westeros from Valyria in Essos to escape the doom, the last surviving Targaryens settled at Dragonstone. There they grew powerful and eventually swayed some houses of the Westerosi to their side. Thus then eventually beginning to war against the already existing kings of the then ununified kingdoms of Westeros (The kings in the Northern most kingdoms, The Baratheon Stormkings of the StormLands, the Westerland kings, the kings of the Vale, the Isle and Mountains, the Reach, Dornish principality and the entire fold). They eventually conquered all the kingdoms with the exception of Dorne - as we know it from the books (It was the Baratheons who eventually got the Dornish to serve the Iron throne, the Targaryens always suffered heavy casualties whenever they sort to envelope the southern most kingdom).

Members of the House Targaryen are often known for their mental instability coupled which quick irrational temperament. This is caused by ceaseless oedipal breeding of siblings for over three centuries. Of course those information or potential misinformation about the lineage of the Targaryens will finally be opened out for 'Song Of Ice And Fire' fans to see for themselves in 'The House Of Dragons.'
An example was the films series' patron figure of the house (Aerys).
i. Aerys II, otherwise known as the 'Mad King' or 'The King Scab', who heard strange voices in his head that told him to burn people alive with wildfire (a Targaryen weapon) because they presumably planned to kill and overthrow him. At the pick of his mental deterioration, he was known to keep nails as long as his digits.
He wasn't always mad. It wasn't until his voyage to Dorne - still trying to convince the Dornish to bend the knee, like the sixteen other Targaryen kings before him that tried to accomplish this - where he was captured and imprisoned for a period until the knight 'Sir Dunken the tall', came with a royal army and demanded his release. It was on getting to the Red Keep he decided not to venture outside it's walls again eventually growing paranoid and deranged overtime.
King Aerys II, The Seventeenth Targaryen King.
Targaryens would often exhibit strange characters or different forms of mental disturbances even at the pick of their reign. From hallucinations or hearing voices, to psychosis, schizophrenia & sociopathic behaviors. Almost all the children of Aegon II had one mental turbulence or the other.
ii. The second member to expect a cameo from is King Baelor 'The Blessed'. Who was overzealously obsessed with the 'religion of the seven' and spiritual sanctification. Though he practiced the religion right and justly, he did go overboard in some overzealous gestures of holiness - he was a septon as well. He died while fasting in his believe that food was also a material possession.
King Baelor 'The Blessed', The Ninth Targaryen King.
Even when alive, he once went to free a friend of his from the Dornish enemy kingdom, and after being informed that he had to enter a snake pit to rescue his adviser, he somehow believed the 'seven gods' would protect him from the danger and apparently ventured into the pit of snakes towards his friend's cell while repeatedly being struck by the serpents time and time again, before he was eventually rescued and treated immediately. In case you did not know, he also trekked to Dorne bare foot.
iii. Prince Aerion nicknamed Brightflame, was the son of King Maekar Targaryen and nephew of the Prince Rhaegel. He drank a burning bowl of wildfire, believing it would turn him into a dragon, but the flames melted his oesophagus and killed the deluded prince instantly. According to Wiki Of Ice And Fire,
'' Known for his cruelty and his sadistic personalty, Aerion liked to style himself as Aerion Brightflame, but is best remembered as Aerion the Monstrous or as The Prince Who Thought He Was a Dragon after drinking a cup of wildfire''.
Prince Aerion nicknamed 'Brightflame', was supposed to be the fifteenth Targaryen King.
iv. Prince Rhaegel, The elder brother of Maekar (Prince Aerion 'Brightflame's father) was supposed to be the fourteenth Targaryen King, but the throne later passed to Maekar (Prince Aerion 'Brightflame's father) because of Prince Rhaegel's mental condition. In one the books, it was said of Rhaegel's mental condition which coursed him to dance nude about halls of the Red Keep.
v. The fifth on our list is King Maegor 'the Cruel'. Who was the second son and successor of Aegon I (who first conquered the seven kingdoms). He began to display traits of psychopathic behavior when he murdered all the workers who built the Red keep of KingsLanding, so that nobody would expose the secret passage ways and exits that were secretly added to the plan of the castle (talk about cruel). This same passage ways Tyrion Lannister took the Lannister soldiers through as they attacked the besieging Stannis Baratheon in the 'Battle of black water bay'. It was in this same passage ways Arya Stark overhead Lord Varys' and Illyrio Mopatis' conversations about the brewing violence about to erupt, during the time of 'A Game Of Thrones'. He also murdered his nephew at one point in time. He was involved in various conflicts and confrontations all through his reign, He eventually committed suicide in later years and died.
Maegor 'The Cruel', The third Targaryen King.
vi. We can not talk about the 'Dance Of Dragons' without talking about King Aegon II. According to Fandom Of Ice And Fire, Aegon was married to his younger sister, Helaena Targaryen and had three children by her, though none reached adulthood. During the Dance, Aegon took a three-headed golden dragon for his personal sigil instead of the red three-headed Targaryen dragon, indicating his mount. Aegon's supporters used his personal heraldry as their battle-flag. Almost all the children of Aegon II had one mental turbulence or the other, he is one of the major dysfunctional ruler from the House Targaryen and an anchor character in House Of Dragons.
Aegon II, The sixth Targaryen King.
Finally for the seventh on our list. We will turn two into one and give you, the mental twins themselves. Viserys & Daenerys Targaryen.
Viserys & Daenerys Targaryen years before 'A Game Of Thrones'.
Prince Viserys Targaryen, second son of Aerys II, Sold his sister to a Dothraki warlord in exchange for an army to go after his father's throne (No love lost between them there). But how irrational was he to believe a Dothraki king would grant him an army just to marry his sister. He got killed for defying the sacred law by bringing a weapon into the sacred hall (honestly, everyone was actually fed up) where the horselords feasted, and threatening to kill his sister who had already fallen in love with the Dothraki horselord. A molten magma of gold from the horselord's belt was poured on his head and it killed him instantly.
Queen Daenerys Targaryen, daughter of the Mad king and twin sister of Viserys, and younger sister of Raeghar, Later became the 'Mad Queen' as well. Even though she was good willed in her intentions, she committed series of atrocities that defied her own code of conduct. which eventually lead her to die. The End.
