🐉 Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen, cheered as the Realm’s Delight when she was young and later called the Half-Year Queen, was the first-born child of King Viserys I Targaryen. Rhaenyra was King Viserys I’s only living child by his first wife, Queen Aemma of House Arryn. At the age of eight she was made her father’s heir and grew up expecting to become the first ruling Queen of Westeros. Her claim to the Iron Throne was challenged by her younger half-brother, Aegon II Targaryen, sparking the civil war known as the Dance of the Dragons. She was the mother of two kings, Aegon III and Viserys II. Rhaenyra was a dragonrider whose mount was Syrax.

For @naomimakesart DTIYS but also cause I want to draw more asoiaf stuff anyway
“With his pale green eyes, coal black hair, and easy charm, Cole soon became a favorite of all the ladies at court... not the least among them Rhaenyra Targaryen herself. So smitten was she by the charms of the man she called ‘My White Knight’ that Rhaenyra begged her father to name Ser Criston her own personal shield and protector. His grace indulge her in this, as in so much else.” 👑✨
Let’s all take a minute of silence for Rhaenyra’s crush and future to be biggest asshole 😔😤
Blind to her danger, the queen appeared as dusk was settling over the castle, accompanied by her three children. Jaehaerys and Jaehaera were six, Maelor two. As they entered the apartments, Helaena was holding his little hand and calling out her mother’s name. Blood barred the door and slew the queen’s guardsman, whilst Cheese appeared to snatch up Maelor. “Scream and you all die,” Blood told Her Grace. Queen Helaena kept her calm, it is said. “Who are you?” she demanded of the two. “Debt collectors,” said Cheese. “An eye for an eye, a son for a son. We only want the one, t’ square things. Won’t hurt the rest o’ you fine folks, not one lil’ hair. Which one you want t’ lose, Your Grace?” Once she realized what he meant, Queen Helaena pleaded with the men to kill her instead. “A wife’s not a son,” said Blood. “It has to be a boy.” Cheese warned the queen to make a choice soon, before Blood grew bored and raped her little girl. “Pick,” he said, “or we kill them all.” On her knees, weeping, Helaena named her youngest, Maelor. Perhaps she thought the boy was too young to understand, or perhaps it was because the older boy, Jaehaerys, was King Aegon’s firstborn son and heir, next in line to the Iron Throne. “You hear that, little boy?” Cheese whispered to Maelor. “Your momma wants you dead.” Then he gave Blood a grin, and the hulking swordsman slew Prince Jaehaerys, striking off the boy’s head with a single blow. The queen began to scream. — Fire & Blood

every queen of the seven kingdoms: aemma arryn
“He [Viserys I] had been married for a decade to a cousin, Lady Aemma of House Arryn, herself a granddaughter of the Old King and Good Queen Alysanne through her mother, the late Princess Daella (d. 82 AC). Lady Aemma had suffered several miscarriages and the death of one son in the cradle over the course of her marriage (some maesters felt she had been married and bedded too young), but she had also given birth to a healthy daughter, Rhaenyra (born 97 AC). The new king and his queen both doted on the girl, their only living child.” // Pelin Karahan as Aemma Arryn
🐉 Nettles was a bastard scion of House Targaryen - known as one of the “dragonseeds”. During the Dance of the Dragons, was a dragon-rider for Rhaenyra Targaryen’s faction. Nettles rode a dragon named Sheepstealer, who was not aggressive towards human unless provoked, but could be vicious and ill-tempered. He had a taste for mutton. While he devoured the occasional sheep dog, he never harmed a sheperd.
Finally finished these two! My first attempt at both Laena and Laenor Velaryon, and I think they turned out super cute!

The singers dubbed her the Realm’s Delight, for she was bright and precocious—a beautiful child who was already a dragonrider at the age of seven as she flew on the back of her she-dragon Syrax, named for one of the old gods of Valyria.
Young Rhaenyra, The Realm’s Delight
Lady Laena had inherited the beauty of a true Targaryen from her mother, Rhaenys, and a bold, adventurous spirit from her father, the Sea Snake. As Lord Corlys loved to sail, Laena loved to fly, and had claimed for her own no less a mount than mighty Vhagar, the oldest and largest of the Targaryen dragons since the passing of the Black Dread in 94 AC.
Lady Laena Velaryon, 93AC - 120AC, was the second wife of Prince Daemon Targaryen and mother to his daughters, the ladies Baela and Rhaena Targaryen
Lady Laena Velaryon inherited the Targaryen beauty from her mother, Princess Rhaenys Targaryen, and a bold, adventurous spirit from her father, Corlys Velaryon. Laena loved to fly, and had claimed Vhagar, who was the largest and oldest dragon of that time. Prince Daemon wed Laena only a fortnight after he had killed her betrothed in a duel.
Laena and Daemon flew to many cities in Essos after they were wed, and were greeted by huge crowds everywhere they went as the people turned out for a glimpse of their dragons. Laena gave birth to her twin daughters, Baela and Rhaena, in the city of Pentos. She died of childbed fever at the age of twenty-seven.
Fire & Blood: 300 Years Before A Game of Thrones (A Targaryen History) King Aegon II Targaryen coronation with Criston Cole - Art by Doug Wheatley
On the appointed day Ser Criston Cole placed the iron-and-ruby crown of Aegon the Conqueror upon the brow of the eldest son of King Viserys and Queen Alicent, proclaiming him Aegon of House Targaryen, Second of His Name, King of the Andals, the Rhoynar, and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms, and Protector of the Realm. His mother, Queen Alicent, beloved of the smallfolk, placed her own crown upon the head of her daughter, Helaena, Aegon’s wife and sister. After kissing her cheeks, the mother knelt before the daughter, bowed her head, and said, “My Queen.”

Rhaenys and Meleys: The Battle at Rook's Rest, The Dance of the Dragons.
“... the sound of leathern wings was heard across the sea, and the dragon Meleys appeared above Rook’s Rest. The Red Queen, she was called, for the scarlet scales that covered her. The membranes of her wings were pink, her crest, horns, and claws bright as copper. And on her back, in steel and copper armor that flashed in the sun, rode Rhaenys Targaryen, the Queen Who Never Was.”
I had the privilege of doing an art trade with the talented and lovely @nalustrepalustre who shares my love for House Targaryen and wanted to pay tribute to some of the main characters from The Dance. I chose Rhaenys and Meleys, because I hadn't drawn either of them before and they were both such badass queens.
