The Three Most Legendary Dragons of Westeros

Beyond the immediate conflict, the 'House of the Dragon' universe is defined by its magnificent beasts, with some dragons standing out for their sheer power and historical impact.

The top 3

  1. Balerion the Black Dread: The Conqueror's Mount: Balerion was the largest and most fearsome dragon in Westeros history, ridden by Aegon the Conqueror, whose shadow could reportedly swallow entire towns, and whose flames forged the Iron Throne.
  2. Vhagar: The Ancient Queen of Dragons: Vhagar was the oldest and second-largest dragon during the Dance of the Dragons, having been ridden by Visenya Targaryen during Aegon's Conquest and later by Prince Aemond Targaryen.
  3. Caraxes: The Fierce Blood Wyrm: Known as the 'Blood Wyrm' for his red scales and aggressive nature, Caraxes was Prince Daemon Targaryen's battle-hardened mount, a veteran of many conflicts, including the iconic Battle Above the Gods Eye.
