The mount of the Mother of Dragons, Daenaerys Targaryen, Drogon was born in a clutch of three. His two other brothers were Rhaegal and Viserion, and they were the first dragons to be seen in many, many decades. The firstborn was named after Dany's dead husband Khal Drogo, the leader of a khalasar. A namesake that Dany chose to honour both man and beast.
Rumoured to be the offspring of Dreamfyre, these eggs might have been the ones stolen by Elissa Fairman from Dragonstone years before the Dance of the Dragons. The woman was a close friend and lover of Rhaena Targaryen, the eldest sibling of Alysanne and Jahaerys.
Drogon is distinguishable by his red-black scales and wings. He, and his brothers grew considerably fast over the years. Although, Drogon was the biggest and most aggressive of the three. His shape is very similar to that of Dreamfyre (a possible indicator that she's his mother), however, his shape is also similar to that of Seasmoke, Meleys, Vermax and Arrax. These dragons have more of traditional dragon look, while the differences are in the tails.
Not only was he the more aggressive dragon, Drogon was also the most outgoing and adventurous. He was curious and wanted to explore the world, while Viserion and Rhaegal didn't wander too far from their mother. He was also quick to anger and didn't like being told what to do.
Some said Drogon was Balerion born again, the dragon of Aegon the Conquorer.

Fantastic Four #211 (Wolfman/Byrne, Oct 1979). Galactus orders the fam to humble his new herald. At first Terrax seems too powerful for them in their weakened state but nope, easy peasy! I will admit, I never caught that the previous heralds of Galactus were sorta themed after the four elements…

Gods of Old Valyria
Hi all! A few of you were interested in learning more about the gods of Old Valyria after the origin story Daemon read to Aemond in Chapter 16 (here, third and final POV). I thought I'd put all of the lore related to them in one place for your reference!
As a note, this is built on canon where possible. We're only explicitly given the names of four of the gods, and aren't even told how many there are. I've taken this and run with it. Since the four names we have are all names of dragons around the Dance era and prior, I'm borrowing the names of current and past dragons to fill in the remaining gods. I'm also taking inspiration from the Fourteen Flames of Old Valyria in creating a polytheistic religion of fourteen gods. I also think this is a funny contrast against the Faith of the Seven!
Also, I'm not saying there are hints to future events in Stormbreak hidden below, but that's exactly what I'm saying. Perhaps the concept a deity represents has something to say about the rider of the dragon named after that deity. Or perhaps the relations of the deities have something to say about the relations of the dragons. Not always, of course, but for some the choices I made for the gods will parallel what plays out for the riders and dragons within Stormbreak.
Okay, so let's introduce everyone!
Vhagar, god of war and destruction
Father of Vermithor. Associated with protection, struggle, battles, and destruction. Considered to be the patron god of soldiers and fathers.
2. Syrax, goddess of life and motherhood
Sister-wife of Balerion. Mother of Tessarion. Associated with fertility, women, and family. Considered to be the patron goddess of mothers.
3. Balerion, god of death and transformation
Brother-husband of Syrax. Mother of Tessarion. Associated with the afterlife, rebirth, renewal, and change. Prayed to for safe passage into the afterlife when someone is dying or on their deathbed.
4. Caraxes, god of the past and wisdom
Brother of Tyraxes and Meraxes. Associated with tradition, blood, heritage, and history. Prayed to for guidance during difficult decisions.
5. Tyraxes, goddess of the present and learning
Sister of Meraxes and Caraxes. Associated with innovation, invention, and building. Considered to be the patron goddess of craftsmen and scholars.
6. Meraxes, goddess of the future and foresight
Sister of Caraxes and Tyraxes. Mother of Shyrkos. Associated with instinct and planning. Prayed to for good fortune.
7. Vermithor, god of victory and achievement
Son of Vhagar, born from his sword hand as he won the first ever battle. Associated with resilience and overcoming obstacles. Prayed to for inner strength.
8. Shyrkos, god of dreams and prophecy
Son of Meraxes, goddess of the future, and Terrax, god of sleep, born from Terrax winning against Meraxes in a bet. Associated with visions, premonitions, and warnings. Considered to be the patron god of dragon dreamers.
9. Arrax, goddess of the sun and day
Sister of Terrax and Vermax. Associated with light, fire, warmth, and riches. Prayed to for wealth. Considered the patron god of merchants.
10. Terrax, god of the moon and night
Brother of Vermax and Arrax. Father of Shyrkos. Associated with dark, sleep, water, and peace. Considered the patron god of sailors.
11. Vermax, goddess of the stars
Sister of Arrax and Terrax. Associated with the sky, the heavens, godhood, and magic. Considered the leader of the gods.
12. Meleys, god of art and creativity
Associated with music, poetry, painting, and imagination. Considered the patron god of artists.
13. Morghul, goddess of innocence.
Associated with virginity, children, chastity, and youth. Prayed to by virgins before marriage, and prayed to on behalf of infants.
14. Tessarion, goddess of nature
Daughter of Syrax and Balerion. Associated with animals, hunting, plants, and harvests. Considered the patron god of farmers. Prayed to before meals.
So there you have it! I'm sure some of you have noticed, but subsets of these gods are related to each other in very deliberate ways. Most of the gods are siblings, but I felt that some of the gods should be more closely related than even that because the concepts they represented were so linked. I'll explain each case below:
The sun, moon, and stars are three parts of one whole. So Arrax, Terrax, and Vermax are triplets.
The past, present, and future are also three parts of one whole. So Caraxes, Tyraxes, and Meraxes are triplets.
Life and death are equals and opposites of each other. So Syrax and Balerion are twins.
Dreams are part of the future, but they also happen during sleep. So Shyrkos is the son of Meraxes and also Terrax.
Victory is one aspect of war and struggle. So Vermithor is the son of Vhagar.
Nature is a form of life and also death. So Tessarion is the daughter of Syrax and also Balerion.
I also thought that the idea of Syrax and Balerion being twins and spouses, and Meraxes and Terrax reproducing together (they're not twins but all of these original gods are siblings), would be a good origin for the Valyrian incest custom. At the very least I thought it should be reflected in the gods a few times.
Anyways, none of this is going to feature super heavily in the main story, and if a new god is ever introduced there will also obviously be context about what they represent. But since I already planned it out, I figured I might as well post it! Plus it'll probably be fun for those of you who like to speculate. If anyone wants to use this in their own content, they're welcome to! Please just shoot me a quick ask first. 🥰

Jaenara Balaerys and her dragon Terrax.

While we are not on the topic, female dragonriders with male dragons are underappreciated and not talked about enough. We have five throughout the world we have now. From the doom to Daenerys. The only ones who we have from Aegon’s Conquest to the main continuity are Dany, Aerea and Nettles. Jaehaera has a male dragon, but she never rides him and one Jaenara Belaerys who flew the dragon Terrax in Old Valyria. Other than that, female dragonriders have female dragons and are tied to the fertility of dragons. It's also notable that pregnancy is not typically afforded to female dragonriders with male dragons
Dany loses Rhogo, and Nettles is notably without a kid that we know of by the end of her story. Jaehaera is married to Aegon but dies before they have kids. Aerea dies before she is married. And we don't know much else about Jaenara Belaerys other than she flew further than anyone has in Sothoryos.
Another strange thing is that with Dany and Netty, the threat of a potential child from them instigated an active threat to their lives from the rulers of Westeros at the time.
What I'm saying is that I think Nettles might be the last Dragonrider and her death, not just Targaryens unable to hatch them after the dance, Rhaenyra’s death and or the Maester conspiracy by themselves lead to the death of a lot of the magic and Dany is the catalyst for its return. There's the blood magic tie in to their unique bonds with their dragons as well, but that can be a separate post.
All in all, it's just a fun little thing I've noticed.
