❛ 𝗣𝗥𝗜𝗡𝗖𝗘 𝗗𝗔𝗘𝗠𝗜𝗢𝗡 𝗧𝗔𝗥𝗚𝗔𝗥𝗬𝗘𝗡 , the thirty three year old prince of westeros , is the eldest child of princess vaelyra targaryen , and her consort , sarai manderly. once beloved by the people as an overindulgent prince , time and loss have taken its toll on the acclaimed ‘ heir’s heir '. colder and far more cutthroat in recent years , the last decade has seen prince daemion a changed man , slow to smile and merciless in his strike. for while the prince is a fair man , he is of little patience , and hungry enough to do whatever it takes to win. a staunch supporter of his mother’s rightful claim to the throne , daemion is a prominent figure in the crimson court , and strives to strengthen not only her position , but his own to surely follow.

... # physical information.
faceclaim: dev patel. ethnicity: of valyrian descent , westerosi. hair: thick , onyx waves with streaks of classic targaryen silver - blonde that curl at his shoulders ; unbearably soft to the touch. usually half tied up and out of his face or perfectly tousled just so. eyes: a darker shade of purple hues , near the deepest point of an amethyst ; has a tendency to gleam in the right light. height: 6'2 / 187cm. build: lean and athletic ; has a toned physique with pointed definition in his arms. scent: warm and spicy ; most often of smoldering wood , tobacco leaf and vanilla. dominant hand: right. allergies: none. scars: has earned his fair share of scars throughout the years , but the most prominent of note include : a neat slash across his left arm from a training accident in his youth and long since healed scarring from burns on his right flank and hip while initially attempting to bond with his dragon. distinguishing features: a strong jawline and stern set of his brows , balanced out by the occasional dimple ; sharper features that noticeably soften with a kinder grin , ink stains upon calloused hands ; both scholar and soldier at war within you , broad shoulders with a relaxed posture that scream of self assurance and confidence with every step. clothing style: daemion knows he’s an important man ( as all targaryen's are ) and so while he isn’t what one would call flashy by any means , his clothing is always that of the highest standard , and he does his best to dress the part as is required of him. however , when he's out and about outside the keep ( more so than one would think ) daemion can usually be seen in his riding clothes , or more smallfolk friendly attire , with a heavy cloak for when he comes and goes.

hobbies: astrology , debate , dragon riding , archery , swordplay , ( most physical activities tbh ) , studying foreign cultures. religion: the faith of the seven , if only performatively. follows the old valyrian gods and their practices in private. alliance: house targaryen ( the crimson faction ). personal goals: gather power to the crimson faction and uphold his mother's claim to the throne , in turn strengthening that of his own. seeks to gain allies and loyalties tied to himself , first and foremost. family or power? family , which in itself is inherently tied to power.
no one can say for certain from where the children of vaelyra hail ⸻ the impossible gathering of old valyria in their veins , of the dragon's brood , as though blood could not help but recognize blood. for one day you are within the arms of the woman who birthed you , the next , an infant heralded as prince. eventually , much later , you will come to ponder the fates that led you to your mother's arms , of how she simply knew , but the questions of your birth will sooner since have passed you by , burnt up in your dragon's flames alongside those who dare defy you. for though the egg in your cradle would never hatch , the bond never quite meant to be , the claiming of a dragon so long unbonded would silence the murmurs of doubt.
you are the blood of the dragon , a targaryen through and through , and with fire and blood you will prove yourself so.
[ insert the years of a peaceful childhood , plentiful in adventures and the stories of a playful , yet all too intelligent young prince. years with a bright future ahead , with the promise of a throne to one day greet you , as your mother's before her. here we see the workings of time , of a boy who takes his first steps , swings his first sword , picks up his first feather pen , utters his first words in the tongues of his ancestors. ever - growing , ever learning , until a man emerges , surefooted and strong. ]
but youth is but a dream , and one day , you must awaken.
not even twenty , and you have already lost yourself to a love you will never recover from. wedded to a lady from a small noble house , with nothing to offer but her heart , and you , who could ask for nothing more. foolishly , full - heartedly , you throw yourself head first into the makings of a love story for the ages , sung for endlessly by the bards. ( a once serenaded masterpiece of love , now hummed under breaths for the tragedy it will come to be ). you who shared with her your entire life , of that which you have promised to her 'till death , so what is left of you , when it is her own life that is stolen first ? losing your wife and the child born between you to a carriage accident of all things , you are left trembling in the aftermath. granted only five years of an unspeakable joy , you are left gutted by the years that stretch before you , the years you will be forced to live without.
and the worst part of love is that you remember it.
the man that emerges from the other side of the wreckage is nothing like what you once were. grief takes its toll , etching itself into every line , every pore of your being. a once familiar laughter so rare to be seen , and noticeably muted when shared. drawing inwards , you turn your attentions towards duty above else. reinventing yourself as the perfect prince , an infallible being ⸻ for you have tasted love , experienced the mistakes of leading with one's heart , and you have deemed it unworthy of the eventual loss. instead , you will learn to rise above , to soar higher in a reach for power , a promise of something that no one could once again steal away.

while the dragon egg that was originally placed within daemion's cradle never hatched , meeting morghul within the dragonpit was a love at first sight that cemented his need to bond with the she - dragon. ( it would only be her , or the fool prince would simply die trying. ) six years old and ready to throw himself head first into her flames , it would take daemion four more before morghul would finally deem him worthy enough of her bond.
a formidable black and red - accented beast , morghul is on the larger side of the currently living dragons , mostly in thanks to her age. huge and nearly hulking , formidable but ever languid. the shadowy lady is rather tranquil in comparison to others of her kind , and indulgent to daemion's overly affectionate ways. still , morghul is highly protective of her rider , and the most surefire way to rouse the otherwise apathetic dragon is to put daemion in harms way.
❛ 𝗟𝗢𝗥𝗗 𝗥𝗢𝗥𝗬𝗡 𝗚𝗥𝗘𝗬𝗝𝗢𝗬 , the twenty five year old lord of pyke , has always been better renowned for courting personal pleasures over political pursuits. happy to keep to his adventures , and spend his days sailing to lands far and wide , it's to everyone's misfortune that his attentions have recently turned towards scratching a new itch for power. finding himself unsatisfied by the hand he's been played , the long forgotten ambitions of an overlooked lordling are slowly learning to bare its teeth. and while a level head would be perfect for navigating the treacherous waters ahead , the youngest greyjoy has unfortunately never been one for calm and composure. now , it's all about figuring out how to cause some much needed chaos , and taking for himself what has never been promised ⸻ but sure to be stolen in blood. ... best of luck to you , westeros , you're going to need it !

... # narrative.
what separates a lord from his fellow man ? what makes them better , and so much more worthy of the titles bestowed upon them ? it's an answer you've pondered time and time again , the mysteries of which you've been chasing from your youth. so far , all you've discovered is this : all men drown the same , and remain helpless before the seas. it was life's only assurance , and so the only one you deemed worthy to abide.
the rest , well , you'd long since decided it was easier to figure out along the way.
the youngest of the greyjoy's amongst your generation , the rumours say you earned your sea legs long before you'd ever touched down upon land. with a brine in your blood , alongside flesh and bone , they deem you carved from the same tempest as the storms ; as overwhelming and dangerous as the floods so familiar to your home. basking in chaos and calling home to troubled shores , perhaps it was to the benefit of your father that you so preferred the open seas. keeping you from your islands and sailing to where the winds dared you to go , such was the life of a wanderer , and ever hedonistic satisfaction.
you do what you like , and you do it so well.
growing blood thirsty and impossible to control , you are better raised by the ironborn aboard their ships in lordsport than high up within the sea tower of pyke. happy amongst your travels , and soaking up the pleasures to be found in lands far and wide , the new winds bringing forth the rumours of a blood feud between to - be kings and queens is the herald to the start of long and arduous battle of your own. loyal to your heritage , and yourself above all , the disregard of inheritance and the so called ' rightful heirs ' has you seeking to gather power for your own self ⸻ your own pleasure. and if nothing , you have always been an expert at that.
... # wanted connections.
— bad influence , alexa play good girls go bad by cobra starship featuring leighton meester <333 rory is understandably no parent's idea of a good influence , and boy oh boy , does he ever relish in it. ( not to say roryn greyjoy has something of a corruption kink , but … that is exactly what i'm saying ). give him a new little lord or lady for him to enchant , to promise adventures and excitement to break them free of the same old life on land. not necessarily a romantic / amorous connection in itself , but could have potential overtones ? rory just loves getting up to no good , and a downfall is surely that much sweeter when he can drag someone down with him , that's all <333.
— seeking mutiny , taps the mic … is this thing on ? no ? yes ? oh great … well ! calling all second sons and those otherwise in line for a heirship just out of reach … with the new winds bringing forth new tidings from the crownlands , roryn has gotten into his head the idea of fucking off with named heirs and lines of succession. believing his sister ariadne a better fit for the ruling seat of pyke , and himself the destined lord captain of its fleet , he's on the hunt for likeminded folks who seek to play out similar plots. so do you enjoy rebellion ? seek the sweet freedom only successful treason can grant ?? reach out to roryn greyjoy now to make your dreams come true <333
— regrettable loverboy , you ask me about love and i tell you about violence type beat … yeah yeah yeah. romantic prospects aren't exactly plentiful in roryn's life , neither one to be sought out by the lord , but ultimately : something to come along and smack him silly across the face. to be dragged off towards , kicking and screaming , crying and throwing up. devotion is bestowed to so very few in his life , and shown mostly through acts of dedicated , yet heinous violence ⸻ and truly , how many would have the heart to stomach such a thing ? still , when he loves , he loves wholeheartedly , regardless of the consequences , to both himself and your muse <333
Years of war, Gaius, struggle... and luck have brought you here. To this place. I'd be very sorry to see you throw it all away... doing something stupid.
