The husband of Alexis Morrell and Krystle Jennings. Initially a ruthless man in both business and family matters, the character soon softened into a more benevolent patriarchal figure due to the influence of actor John Forsythe.

Krystle was the mother, with Blake, of Krystina, and the aunt of Sammy Jo Dean, the only child of her late sister Iris and her husband Frank. Evans left the show after appearing in only six episodes at the beginning of the final season but returned for ''Dynasty: The Reunion'' in 1991. ;Alexis Morrell Carrington Colby Dexter Rowan (Joan Collins, 1981–1989; 1991) :Former socialite turned businesswoman, married to - in order - Blake Carrington, Cecil Colby, Dex Dexter and Sean Rowan. She famously held a torch for Blake, though she later fell deeply in love with Dex Dexter. Her marriage to Colby was ordered on his deathbed, and intended to enable her to ruin Blake after Colby was gone, while her wedding to Rowan was on a whim. Mother, with Blake, to Adam, Fallon, Steven, and Amanda. Alexis was romantically attached to a number of men, including Carrington architect and estate manager Roger Grimes (J. Eddie Peck), tennis pro Mark Jennings, oilman Rashid Ahmed (John Saxon), King Galen of Moldavia (Joel Fabiani) and shipping tycoon Zach Powers (Ricardo Montalban). ;Fallon Carrington Colby (Pamela Sue Martin (original cast), 1981–1984; then Emma Samms, 1985, 1986, 1987–1989, 1991) :The eldest daughter of Blake and Alexis, the wife of Jeff Colby and the mother, with Jeff, of Blake Carrington Colby and Lauren Constance Colby. As a young woman, she was famously indiscreet and enjoyed affairs with chauffeur Michael Culhane (played by Wayne Northrop) (original cast), playboy Peter De Vilbis, tennis pro Mark Jennings, doctor Nick Toscanni, and Colby heir, Miles Colby, whom she married briefly. When Martin left the series in fourth season, the story had Fallon fleeing in her car on the eve of her remarriage to Jeff. Her wrecked car was later found by the road however there was no sign of Fallon. She was absent for much of the season that followed, a period in which Amanda Carrington surfaced. At the end of the season Fallon was reintroduced: suffering from amnesia and now played by Emma Samms. Soon afterwards she and Jeff left Denver and their characters were switched to the spin-off series ''The Colbys''. That series was cancelled after two seasons and Fallon and Jeff were returned to ''Dynasty'' in 1987. ;Steven Daniel Carrington (Al Corley (original cast), 1981–1982, 1991; then Jack Coleman, 1983–1988) :The sexually confused, third born and younger son of Blake and Alexis who, despite his conviction that he was homosexual, married-at times, happily-Sammy Jo Dean and Claudia Blaisdel. With Sammy Jo, he fathered Danny Carrington. At different times, the lover of Ted Dinard, Luke Fuller and Bart Fallmont. He was accused of having an affair with his friend, lawyer Chris Deegan (Grant Goodeve), but their relationship was never clarified. The role was recast during the series run and the change of appearance was explained by plastic surgery after an oil rig explosion. Steven eventually ended up with Bart in the reunion movie. ;Adam Alexander Carrington (Gordon Thomson, 1982–1989; later Robin Sachs, 1991 only) :First born, kidnapped at birth and raised as Michael Torrance in Billings, Montana, Adam Carrington did not learn of his true identity until adulthood, at which point he returned to the Carrington home. Obsessed with Kirby Anders and later married to Claudia Blaisdel and Dana Waring, he was a ruthless schemer - constantly plotting to enhance his position in the dynasty. Adam was first mentioned, albeit briefly, in the second season of ''Dynasty'' and was introduced in the third season after the character of Steven was temporarily written out of the series. Adam was also featured in the 1991 reunion movie, recast with Sachs as Thomson was unavailable. Adam reunited with Kirby. ;Amanda (Bedford) Carrington (Catherine Oxenberg, 1984–1986; then Karen Cellini, 1986–1987) :Amanda was not seen or heard-of in the series until the fifth season; the character was devised as replacement for the departing Fallon. Amanda was the second daughter (last born of four) of Blake and Alexis, raised in London as Amanda Bedford by Alexis's cousin Rosalind Bedford (Juliet Mills). She was hidden from her father Blake out of spite by Alexis, who discovered she was pregnant after she separated from her husband. Married to Prince Michael of Moldavia, and one-time lover of Dex Dexter (on whom she had a crush), Clay Fallmont, and chauffeur Michael Culhane (once again played by Wayne Northrop).

''Dynasty'' creator Esther Shapiro felt Blaisdel was the "everywoman" of the show. When introduced, Claudia had recently been released from a psychiatric hospital. She befriended Steven and they soon had an affair. Forced to confess on the stand at Blake's murder trial, Matthew left her. She married Steven, but when she found out her daughter Lindsay had died, she became unhinged and was sent off to a hospital again. She returned and resumed her relationship with Steven. Eventually the marriage ended over Steven's sexual confusion and Claudia became involved with and married Adam. After that marriage fizzled, Claudia became unhinged again and died in a fire she started accidentally at ''La Mirage''. ;Samantha Josephine "Sammy Jo" Dean Reece Carrington Fallmont, (Heather Locklear, 1981–1989, 1991) :Greedy, trouble-making yet beautiful niece of Krystle Carrington, wife of Steven Carrington and Clay Fallmont, and mother of Danny Carrington. It was later revealed that she was the daughter of Daniel Reece, played by Rock Hudson. Sammy Jo was the show's secondary villainess for much of the show's run, though she was an amateur compared to the far more polished Alexis. Locklear split her time between ''Dynasty'' and another Spelling-produced series, T.J. Hooker. ;Dominique Deveraux (Diahann Carroll, 1984–1987) :Successful and wealthy chanteuse (birth name Millie Cox), illegitimate daughter of Tom Carrington and Laura Matthews, making her a half-sister to Blake and Ben Carrington. Carroll joined the cast at the end of the fourth season as a foil for Joan Collins' Alexis, though when the character was originally written, the producers had not decided how to use her. A number of scenes were filmed to introduce her (to circumvent any chance the storyline would leak the press) including alternative lines that revealed Dominique as the mother of Kirby Anders and also the former wife of Cecil Colby. Dominique was initially conceived as a strong, tough schemer and fighter who loved going toe-to-toe with Alexis, but after reconciling with the Carrington family, she mellowed considerably. Dominique eventually left town in 1987, was not mentioned again until Season 9, when many references to her left the door open for her return in a never produced Season 10. Dominique also appeared in many episodes of ''The Colbys''. ;Farnsworth "Dex" Dexter (Michael Nader, 1983–1989) :Alexis' third husband, and arguably the second great love of her life, after Blake. Dex carries on a brief affair with Alexis' daughter Amanda, which strains the relationship between mother and daughter and ultimately ends his marriage. Dex was something of an adventurer and, throughout his time on the series, went on a number of daring missions. He spent time as a Green Beret, including service in the Vietnam War (which he mentions on several occasions). ;Dana Waring Carrington (Leann Hunley 1986–1988) :Blake's beautiful and loyal assistant at Denver–Carrington.

Alexis brings him to Denver to stir up trouble and help her destroy Blake. ;Sabella "Sable" Scott Colby (Stephanie Beacham, 1985; 1988–1989) :The ex-wife of Colby Enterprises magnate Jason Colby and the cousin of Alexis. Sable left Los Angeles and came to Denver, where she supported Blake after Krystle's departure to a Swiss clinic and became a formidable opponent of Alexis by getting her hands on the Carlton Hotel, Alexis' oil tankers and her former husband Dex Dexter (and even becoming pregnant with his child). Former top bitch of ''Dynasty'' spin-off, ''The Colbys'', Sable was written into the final season of the series as a foil for Alexis as both Linda Evans and Joan Collins appeared in limited episodes with Evans leaving after appearing in only six episodes at the beginning of the season and Collins being contracted to only thirteen out of twenty - two episodes of season 9. ;Monica Scott Colby (Tracy Scoggins, 1985; 1988–1989) :First cousin of Jeff Colby, she was believed to be Jeff's half–sister until her mother, Sable, revealed that Monica and her twin brother Miles were not Jason Colby's children.

Monica had previously been a character on ''The Colbys''. ;Leslie Saunders Carrington (Terri Garber, 1987–1988) :Daughter of Ben Carrington and Melissa Saunders.
