Fuck Miguel because HES actually the first anomaly. He abused his power/ability to travel between universes to take the place of someone else. Had he not done that, that universe and everything in it would still be around. But Miles? Miles ACCIDENTALLY got bit by spider that wasn't where it was supposed to be. How tf was he supposed to know that?

Valyrian Names for Writers!

Credit: Tommyscottart on Devianart.

So with the rise of HOTD I thought I might post something that other writers may find useful for their work, specifically when it comes to naming valyrian OCs!

Obviously we've been given a fair amount of canon valyrian names from ASOIAF and Fire & Blood but not everyone wants to reuse the same names. So I thought I'd share some sources I've found that were helpful!

One & Two

Both of these reddit posts to r/asoiaf by u/AliceCringekung and u/CW_73 have been a major help when it comes to naming valyrian characters by providing an assortment of all possible valyrian names based on the ones we've seen in canon.

(u/AliceCringekung's post even has some notes about the valyrian naming system.)

Both used the known prefixes and suffixes to come up with the names.

Prefixes:

Dae-, Ae-, Rhae-, Mae-, Bae-, Vis-, Vae-, Valae-, Jaehae-, Gae-, Elae-, Lae-, Jacae, Matae-, Hae-, Helae-, Nae-, Au-, Ayr-, Jae-, Va-, Vale-, Sae-, Shae-, Cor-, and Rho-.

Suffixes:

-erys, -ella/-ela, -ena, -enya, -mon/-mond, -gon, -gor, -gar, -ger, -lor, -lora, -kar, -enys, -ryn, -erea, -erion, -emion, -nar, -lon, -erra/-era, -eron, -gelle, -el, -elle, -gel, -lys, -lyx, -midon, -nara, -nora, -larr, -nor, and -nyra.

Those are the ones we know/have appeared in canon.

Looking at those, particularly the prefixes, we can make a few guesses on other prefixes that might also work for Valyrian names, for example:

Tae-, Kae-, Rae-, and Cae-.

AE is a popular point in valyrian names, so you can assume that any other letter followed by AE would work as a prefix.

Another thing I've noticed is that the names never seem to be more than three or four syllables which tend to 'flow' nicely into each other. Also, outside of the 'Jaehae' prefix, which can be seen as the 'Jae' and 'Hae' prefixes combined, none of the other prefixes seem to be used together in one name. It also seems to apply to suffixes as well.

So when making a valyrian name it's probably best to remember;

[prefix] + [suffix] = [name]

Hope you guys find this helpful!

it's actually funny how aegon was like "i try so hard" but we never see him doing anything.

lol one of the things I like about Coates Academy is the range of reasons people are there for. on one hand, you have actual crimes like lying to the police, hacking into a computer to get rid of a speeding ticket, poisoning your sister, and shooting a kid in the leg. and on the other hand you have being "evil" (with no explanation why caine is evil), failing school, and being gay. these are listed like they're all on the same level
