House of the Dragon Viserys Targaryen Collector Box

Product Description

The grandson of the Old King Jaehaerys. Viserys Targaryen was ultimately chosen by the lords of Westeros over his cousin Princess Rhaenys Targaryen to rule. He was the fifth ruler of the Targaryen dynasty.

A level-headed decision maker, his reign was peaceful, though not without its challenges. He has one daughter, Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen, with Queen Aemma Arryn.

Upon Aemma's death, Viseys married Alicent Hightower. The two had several children, the oldest of whom was a son, Aegon Targaryen. Although he had named Rhaenyra his heir, the birth of Aegon created conflict over the question of Viserys' succession.

After many years of declining health, he died in his chambers, unable to broker peace between his family members prior to his passing.
