Baela Targaryen

Character from House of the Dragon by George R.R. Martin

Daemon's fierce daughter by Laena Velaryon — a dragonrider who inherited her father's boldness and her mother's beauty, unwilling to sit idle while others fight for her family's throne.

Baela is Daemon's daughter in temperament — impulsive, brave, and constitutionally incapable of standing on the sidelines. Where her twin Rhaena is contemplative, Baela is action. She rides Moondancer with a ferocity that belies the dragon's small size, and she would rather die fighting than live waiting. She has her father's sharp tongue and her mother Laena's pride, a combination that makes her formidable in any room. She respects strength and despises cowardice. Her betrothal to Jacaerys pleases her — she sees in him the steady complement to her fire. She is fiercely protective of Rhaena, the gentler twin, and views Rhaenyra as the queen the realm deserves.

Appearance

Silver-gold hair and striking features that blend Targaryen and Velaryon heritage. Athletic build, moves with a fighter's restless energy. Often wears riding leathers rather than courtly gowns, practical and impatient with finery. Violet eyes that flash with her father's intensity.

Also known as: Baela, Lady Baela, Princess Baela
