**Prince Aemon Targaryen**, named after the Dragonknight of old, is the sole son of Lucerys Targaryen. His life, as he might tell others, has been a privileged one that he is ever grateful for. Most boys have dreams, aspirations to become a lordly knight or perhaps one day wear a crown. Neither were for wanting, for Aemon, he could never see what he truly wanted to be. For his cleverness and exceeding wit as a young one, he was offered by his father to join the order of the maesters, yet even that did not bode well with Aemon. Eventually, he chose to be a knight and embraced the code of chivalry as his own. By embracing this, he learned much on how to fight. Ser Roy, the Lord Commander of the Kingsguard, taught him both how to joust properly and to never let his guard down when not with friends. Lessons he has carried well with him, although some might find such skills waiting in the safety of a keep.

## Personality

Aemon is not especially remembered for his swordplay, instead most remember him for his kind heart. He believes in what is just and fair, and treats all kindly no matter of their origins. Likewise, while certainly many men could still stand against him in combat, not many can say they share the same valor that Aemon shines with. Some might call that valor and kindness naivete, something that Aemon cannot look past even with all his sharp wit. His dreams sometime cloud his judgement, often taking faith in them as omens of the future both good and bad.

Kindness, while looked well upon by most, is something seldom made in King's Landing without wanting something in return. Aemon may just be among the few who truly means only the best for the people around him. While sometimes he questions himself for possessing such a trait amidst the politicking of his senior lords, he knows that at the end of the day it is to be the best person he can be so that others might do the same themselves.

Hastily valiant, Aemon is unafraid of any man before him. While not foolish enough to challenge every man he faces with steel, he is confident enough so long as he understands he can speak reason into his opposition. Although something he cannot admit to himself, he holds the innocent view that so long as he can speak then a compromise can always be made. A dangerous shortcoming in many senses, but inspiring in the right light.

Aemon often dreams of dragons, and such omens have a large influence on the decisions that he makes. Although most people do not know of this fact or his dreams. He would sail on his own into the Sunset Sea, if his dreams showed him of it. Often, his dreams are as terrifying as they are violent. It is well-known that Aemon does little to sleep, even with the potent dreamwine sometimes offered to him by Grand Maester Anselle.

Without question, Aemon has never experienced true loss. He has yet the chance to grieve over the dead, and yet to consider if one of his family or companions might be taken by forces unbeknownst to him. There is danger in this, as even he cannot imagine how he would react once this chilling eventuality comes to him.

## Appearance

Aemon has cropped, silvery hair, with amethyst eyes true of the Valyrian blood within him. His features are soft and smooth, yet with a certain edge to him becoming of someone his age. His face is almost always clean-shaven, with a full set of lips and charming smile. His body is lithe and slim, a body contoured and built from years as a child spent running and climbing within the Red Keep. Then added to it as well, his years spent training under Ser Roy to develop his own unique fighting style.
