From that point onward, King Viserys was seldom seen without Rhaenyra. A year later, when she was eight, Rhaenyra became a cupbearer for her father, serving him at the table, at tourneys, and at court. Rhaenyra became a dragonrider at the age of seven, when she flew into the sky on the back of a young dragon, whom she named Syrax. Rhaenyra had two brothers, both of whom died in the cradle. History Early lifeīorn in 97 AC, Rhaenyra was the only living child of King Viserys I Targaryen by his first wife, Lady Aemma of House Arryn. During the Dance of the Dragons, she wore the crown of her father, Viserys I, which had first been worn by King Jaehaerys I Targaryen. Whenever she was anxious, she would turn them compulsively around her fingers. Her bodice often glittered with pearls and diamonds, and there were always rings on her fingers. Rhaenyra always dressed richly, favoring purple and maroon velvets and golden Myrish lace in intricate patterns. She resented her slender older stepmother, Queen Alicent Hightower, but was fond of Lady Laena Velaryon. Though she could be charming, Rhaenyra was quick to anger and never forgot a slight. Rhaenyra was proud and stubborn, and there was a certain petulance to her small mouth. Rhaenyra never lost weight gained from pregnancies, and she had grown stout and thick of waist at the age of twenty after her third pregnancy. Beautiful as a child, Rhaenyra was later declared by her uncle, Prince Daemon Targaryen, to be the most beautiful maiden in all the Seven Kingdoms.

In the television adaptation House of the Dragon, Rhaenyra is portrayed by Emma D'Arcy and Milly Alcock (young). During the Dance, her faction used her personal heraldry as their battle-flag. Rhaenyra's personal sigil was the normal Targaryen heraldry (a three-headed red dragon on a black field), quartered with the moon-and-falcon sigil of House Arryn (for her mother Aemma Arryn), and the silver seahorse on sea green of House Velaryon (for her first husband Laenor Velaryon, as well as for the Velaryons in general, who were among her major supporters). She was the mother of two kings, Aegon III and Viserys II. 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. Rhaenyra was a dragonrider whose mount was Syrax. At the age of eight, she was made her father's heir and grew up expecting to become the first ruling Queen of Westeros.
