Not a bonded mount, but ridden once or twice by Jon Snow (a secret Targaryen). The only of Dany's three dragons to be unridden was Viserion.

Rhaegal was the secondborn hatchling from the clutch, and he kept the middle child energy throughout his life. Not as aggressive as his older brother, Drogon, and not as affectionate as Viserion. Rhaegal wasn't sure where his personality stood as either brother seemed to gobble up their roles completely.

Much like all the other dragons, Rhaegal too was trained in vocal commands in High Valyrian. Notably, "Dracarys," to which Rhaegal responds without question and by instantly breathing fire and burning anything in his path.

Another notable aspect of Rhaegal's personality is his care for Viserion. For example, it's mostly he and Viserion, especially when Drogon is away and they have time to themselves. And when the Night King speared Viserion, Rhaegal attempted to rescue his fallen brother.

Although Dany is called, 'the Mother of Dragons,' it has been rumoured that Dreamfyre (original rider was Rhaena, second rider was Helaena) laid a clutch of eggs, which were stolen before the events of the Dance of Dragons. Those eggs have seeminly been thought of as Drogon, Rhaegal and Viserion. However, nothing has been confirmed. The reproductive and sexual organs of any dragon can change, so it might have been any dragon alive and of that age.

With the look of Rhaegal, he and his two brothers have the same build. A very similar one to Dreamfyre, Seasmoke and Meleys. Most of Rhaegal's scales are emerald green, with a few bronze scales on the underside of his neck and tail. His frills and wings are yellow-orange colored, becoming a darker green near the wing-bones. His eyes are orange in colour.

It is difficult to say his fate, since the show and the book have gone in two very different directions.

GRANITE is the Clan’s Representative from the Earth Flight. He is a happy-go-lucky Snapper, eager to share his knowledge of minerals and gemstones with others. A bit clumsy, he always apologizes, sometimes a little too much.

The mount of Baela Targaryen, daughter of Daemon Targaryen and Laena Velaryon. Moondancer was a slender pale green she-dragon with pearl horns, crest and wingbones. During the Dance of the Dragons, she wasn’t big enough to ride, much like Rhaena’s dragon, Morning. 

Both Morning and Moondancer came from the clutch of eggs from Rhaenyra’s dragon, Syrax. The twin sister’s stepmother and heir to the throne, treated them with love and grace. 

Moondancer’s appearance can be described as both a mix of lizard and traditional. It was well known that Moondancer was stealthy, quick and nimble. With time, she could have become as battle-fierce as Caraxes. 

*Spoiler’s beyond this point* 

In the books, it was Baela and Moondancer who killed Aegon II’s dragon Sunfyre. They were in airborne battle, and Moondancer gave the killing blow. While plummeting to the ground, with Sunfyre still in her clutches, Aegon jumped from Sunfyre while Baela held on. Moondancer’s carcass was devoured by Sunfyre, however, Sunfyre succumbed to his wounds in the oncoming months. 

During the battle, Baela and Aegon both survived. Baela had been badly burnt from the battle, but untied herself from Moondancer and crawled away as Moondancer thrashed back and forth until death.

THICKET is the Clan’s Representative from the Nature Flight. He is a shrewd, stealthy Wildclaw, who prefers to roam the bamboo forests and keep watch over the gardens and fields of the Clan, rather than spend time with other dragons. If you can find and to talk to him, he is generally friendly, but will slip away if your attention leaves him.

MOONSING is the Clan’s Representative of their native Wind Flight. He is as freespirited as they come, often leading exploratory expeditions and bringing back new maps or trinkets.

ANASA is the Clan’s Representative from the Arcane Flight. She is a curious and slightly abrasive Fae, who pokes and prods at what always seems to be the worst time. However, she is very friendly and enjoys gathering insects with other Fae, or gathering minerals with Granite.

MIDNIGHT is the Clan’s Representative from the Fire Flight. She is a Coatl, talented in both the forge and the manipulation of Fire magic. She tends to lay low, tending to her forge, making both weapons and trinkets.

AMINI is the Clan’s Representative from the Lightning Flight. He is an innovative and energetic Mirror, who enjoys making machines that take advantage of the Wind magic native to the region rather than electricity. He’s a little strange, but generally pleasant.
