(Face claim for Lady/Princess Rhaella Targaryen x Prince Jacaerys ‘Jace’ Velaryon)
Rhaella Targaryen was born in the year 112 AC, she was the only child of Prince Daemon Targaryen with his first wife Rhea Royce, the first Lady of Runestone. Ever since her fourth name day she was betrothed to her cousin, Rhaenyra's, first son and her heir to the Iron Throne, Prince Jacaerys Velaryon.
Her dragon is called Zaethor, his egg was given to Rhaella when she was born. Zaethor came from one of Dreamfyre's clutch of eggs, he inherited his mother's brightly coloured scales (and the instinct in choosing a tragic dragon rider 🤫).

(Face claim for Queen (consort) Laella Targaryen x King Aegon II Targaryen)
The first Queen consort to His Grace King Aegon II Targaryen was his twin sister and wife, Laella Targaryen, born in the year 113 AC. Childhood companion to the Lady Rhaella, time and forced distance had worn away their love for one another until compassion grew to hatred.
Starfyre came from the same clutch as Zaethor, like Rhaella, Laella was also given the she-dragon's egg as a babe. Starfyre and Sunfyre were often compared to having a similar bond to that of Vermithor and Silverwing.

(Face claim for Lady/Princess Lhaenyra Targaryen x Prince (Regent) Aemond Targaryen)
Known to history as one of Prince Daemon's greatest betrayals was his second daughter and first child to the Lady Laena Velaryon, born in the year 115 AC, Lhaenyra Targaryen would soon grow to regret her love for Prince Aemond Targaryen, as the god's payment for treachery was death.
Lhaenyra had been wondering the Dragonmont of Dragonstone when she found Silverwing coiled up near Vermithor, she was able to quickly bond with the she-dragon. Ulf the white will continue to canonically bond with Silverwing during the sowing of the seeds.

(Face claim for Princess Alyssa ‘Lissie’ Velaryon x Lord Benjicot Blackwood aka Bloody Ben)
Princess Alyssa Velaryon was the second child and the first daughter of Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen and Ser Laenor Velaryon, she was born in 117 AC, donned the dark hair of the Strongs and along with her brothers, was considered a bastard to her green uncles.
Alyssa was the first and only dragon rider for the usually 'wild' dragon, Cannibal, she shared his temperament perfectly, her family thought of how scary a match between dragon and rider they were. If Alyssa wanted to overthrow her mother she would have no problem in doing so when she had Cannibal to aid her, not that she would ever commit such an act...
