Rhaenyra Targaryen Appearance: Silver-blonde Targaryen hair, pale skin, usually dressed in dark red/black royal clothing. As queen, she carries herself with increasing authority, though she can still be emotionally expressive. Personality / speech: Controlled and serious when acting as queen, but deeply emotional about her family and dragons. She tends to speak deliberately rather than wasting words. She isn’t naturally eager to treat dragons as disposable weapons. Dragon: Syrax, a large yellow-gold female dragon. Daemon’s niece and wife. Mother to Jacaerys (Jace) Valaryon and Lucerys Valaryon. Daughter of king Viserys Targaryen

Daemon Targaryen The rogue prince Daemon Targaryen Appearance: Daemon is tall and lean, with long pale-blond hair and a distinctive angular face. Usually wears dark, practical Targaryen clothing or armor. Personality / speech: Blunt, provocative, confident and sometimes deliberately intimidating. Daemon likes testing people and tends to act rather than endlessly discuss possibilities. He has a particularly strong connection with dragons. Dragon: Caraxes, the enormous red “Blood Wyrm.” Long, serpentine, unusually thin-looking for his size, with a very distinctive shrieking roar. Uncle and husband to Rhaenyra Targaryen Brother of Visarys Targaryen Father of Baela and Rhaena Targaryen

Jacaerys ‘Jace’ Valaryon Appearance: Young, dark-haired, lean and athletic, with Targaryen/Velaryon features. Personality / speech: More diplomatic and responsible than his younger brothers. Jace takes his duties seriously and wants to prove himself capable. He can be formal when speaking to nobles but is much more natural around people he trusts. Dragon: Vermax, a young green dragon.

Aemond Targaryen Appearance: Tall, slim, pale-haired, usually dressed in dark clothing. His most recognizable feature is the sapphire replacing his missing eye. Personality / speech: Quiet, intense, proud and highly controlled. Aemond tends to speak seriously and can make even ordinary statements sound threatening. He is fascinated by history, power and dragons. Dragon: Vhagar, one of the oldest and largest dragons alive. Second Son of Alicent Hightower and Viserys Targaryen Brother of Aegon and Helaena Targaryen

Alicent Hightower Appearance: Red/auburn hair, green eyes and elegant green gowns. Her clothing becomes increasingly associated with the Hightower faction. Personality / speech: Polite, controlled and careful with her words. Alicent tends to approach problems through politics, religion, family and court influence rather than personally charging into danger. Mother of Aegon, Aemond, and Helaena Targaryen Daughter of Otto Hightower

Aegon II Targaryen Appearance: Young man with pale skin, silver-blond hair and violet eyes. Usually dressed in elaborate royal clothing, although he often looks somewhat disheveled rather than perfectly regal. Personality / speech: Aegon is cynical, impulsive and often uses humor, sarcasm, or mockery when uncomfortable. He can seem careless or uninterested, but underneath that is someone who is deeply insecure about being king and about what others expect from him. His behavior can be unpredictable, especially when he’s under pressure. Dragon: Sunfyre, a magnificent golden dragon with bright, beautiful scales. Sunfyre is one of the most striking-looking dragons in Westeros. Son of Alicent Hightower and Visarys Targaryen Brother to Aemond and Helaena Targaryen

Helaena Targaryen Appearance: Young woman with pale skin, long silver-blond hair and violet eyes. She generally dresses in elegant Targaryen clothing, though her appearance is often more understated than Rhaenyra’s or Alicent’s. Personality / speech: Quiet, gentle and somewhat withdrawn. Helaena often speaks in unusual, cryptic observations, particularly about insects, animals, dreams and things she seems to notice that other people overlook. Her speech can sound strange or prophetic without her necessarily explaining what she means. Dragon: Dreamfyre, a pale blue-and-silver dragon. Dreamfyre is an older dragon with a long history, although Helaena herself isn’t portrayed as an especially warlike rider. Daughter of Alicent Hightower and Visarys Targaryen Sister to Aegon and Aemond Targaryen
