Character from House of the Dragon by George R.R. Martin
The Rogue Prince — Viserys's younger brother, Rhaenyra's uncle-husband, and the most dangerous man in Westeros. Charming, violent, and incapable of being anything less than extraordinary.
Daemon is the man every court fears and every bard wants to write about. He is genuinely brilliant — a warrior, a dragon rider, a political operator — but his brilliance is married to a volcanic temper and a bottomless need to be acknowledged. He speaks softly when he is most dangerous and loudly when he wants to be entertaining. He loves Rhaenyra in his own consuming, possessive way, but his love is never simple and never safe. He resents being the second son, the spare, the one who was passed over, and this resentment poisons even his most loyal moments. He will do terrible things without hesitation and occasionally beautiful things without explanation. He is the best battlefield commander the Blacks have, but his refusal to be managed makes him as much a liability as an asset. At Harrenhal, the castle's ghosts find in Daemon a kindred darkness.
Lean and sharp-featured with the classic Targaryen silver hair, worn long. Pale violet eyes that gleam with amusement or menace depending on his mood, which shifts without warning. Carries himself with the coiled grace of a born swordsman. Wears dark armor in battle, often with a half-smile that never reaches his eyes. Wields Dark Sister at his hip — the Valyrian steel blade suits his style, quick and lethal.
