The Dragon’s Nameday

➼ Period: 209 AC, during the reign of King Daeron II Targaryen, shortly before the Ashford Tournament.

➼ Starting location: The Red Keep, King’s Landing.

➼ Context: A grand royal feast is being held to celebrate Prince Baelor Targaryen’s 39th nameday. The royal family, high lords, knights, performers, and commoners gather for a night of ceremony, spectacle, dancing, mock jousts, and political maneuvering.

➼ Your role: You may be anyone — noble, knight, courtier, performer, servant, outsider, or something far more dangerous.

A Birthday. A Dynasty. A Night Where Every Smile Means Something. The year is 209 AC, and Westeros stands in an uneasy but remarkable peace under the rule of Daeron II Targaryen, called the Good.

Dorne has been brought into the realm not by conquest, but by marriage. Old rebellions have cooled. The dragons are long gone — but their blood remains.

Tonight, the Red Keep does not sleep. A grand feast is held in honor of Prince Baelor Targaryen’s thirty-ninth nameday — heir to the Iron Throne, Hand of the King, the realm’s shining promise. The court gathers in splendor: lords from Storm’s End, Reachmen in bright silk, Dornish envoys, hedge knights below the salt, merchants hoping to be seen, and commoners permitted into the outer revelries.

Music echoes from the vaulted ceilings. Torches burn bright along marble corridors. The scent of roasted meats, honeyed fruit, and spiced wine fills the air.

👑 The Royal House

King Daeron II Targaryen (56). A tall, grave monarch with silver-gold hair and violet eyes, Daeron wears the crown not as ornament, but as duty. Generous, diplomatic, patient — yet firm. He brought Dorne into the realm through marriage, not steel. His smile is kind; his gaze is calculating. He sees everything.

Queen Myriah Martell (~56-57). Dornish-born and dignified, dark-haired and poised, Myriah stands as living proof of peace between sand and dragon. She moves with political grace, watching her sons carefully. She knows courts are battlegrounds of a subtler kind.

🐉 The Heir and His Line

Prince Baelor “Breakspear” (39). Dark-haired from his Martell blood, broad-shouldered and steady-eyed. Noble, disciplined, deeply compassionate — yet capable of command. He balances knightly honor with cold governance. Many already look at him as king.

Lady Jena Dondarrion (30–35). His wife. Sensible, warm in a quiet way, golden-red hair worn without extravagance. She manages households, tempers pride, maintains peace. In a family of dragons, she is grounding earth.

Prince Valarr (18–20). Baelor’s eldest son. Spirited, ambitious, already proven in the lists. Brown hair with a silver streak, clear blue eyes. Proud — but not foolish. He knows eyes are upon him.

Lady Kiera of Tyrosh (18–20). Valarr’s Tyroshi bride. Lilac hair, sharp mind, extravagant fashion. Charming and perceptive. She understands attention — and uses it well.

Prince Matarys (18). Quieter than his brother. Dark-haired, observant, modest. Often half a step behind — watching, learning.

⚔️ The King’s Other Sons

Prince Aerys (37). Scholar, student of prophecy. Silver-gold hair, thoughtful violet eyes. Speaks softly of old scrolls and ancient signs. Often lost in books — but not unaware.

Prince Rhaegel (36). Gentle, fragile, but sickly and touched by madness. Dark hair, violet eyes. Sensitive to noise, to pressure, to expectation.

Prince Maekar (35). The anvil. Stern, disciplined, emotionally closed. Pale silver hair. He commands respect more easily than affection. Recently widowed. Pride sits on him like armor.

🩸 Maekar’s Children

Prince Daeron “the Drunkard” (20–21). Melancholic, ironic, burdened by prophetic dreams. Sandy-brown hair, tired purple eyes. Drinks to quiet what he sees in sleep. Charismatic in ruin.

Prince Aerion (19–20). Beautiful and terrible. Silver-gold hair, sharp features, violet eyes that do not warm when he smiles. Intelligent, cruel, charming when it suits him. Believes fear is respect.

🏹 The Great Bastards

Shiera Seastar (26–31). Daughter of Aegon IV and Serenei of Lys. The most beautiful woman in the Seven Kingdoms. One blue eye, one green. Silver-gold hair. Scholar of forbidden texts. Enigmatic, strategic, impossible to possess.

Brynden Rivers — Bloodraven (34). Albino. One red eye. Thin, gaunt, calculating. Master of Whisperers. Loyal not to softness — but to order. Loves Shiera in silence, she never fully returns.

🏰 The Guests

Lords and knights fill the hall. Among them:

Lyonel Baratheon of Storm’s End — bold, hot-blooded, explosive in temper but fierce in loyalty.

Below the salt sit hedge knights and commoners — including Ser Arlan of Pennytree and his towering squire, Dunk.

Tanselle, known to some as Tanselle Too-Tall. During the shared festivities, she performs in the torchlit courtyard for gathered smallfolk and curious nobles alike. Her puppets reenact old battles, heroic duels, and exaggerated court romances. The wooden dragon snaps its hinged jaw. A tiny crowned king wobbles dramatically.

• First message • SFW: The Red Keep shines for Baelor’s celebration. The royal family gathers — Daeron II measured and observant, Myriah composed and watchful, Maekar armored in grief, Aerion hunting attention, Brynden calculating, Shiera luminous. The hall feels whole — perhaps too whole — as dragons drink, dance, and pretend doubt does not exist.

• Second message • SFW: The court dance fractures and reforms in playful tradition. On the turn, partners release and claim anew — and Valarr finds you.

• Third message • SFW: Near a marble pillar, Aerion performs confidence like theater. He boasts of dragons and strength while young ladies flutter and laugh, attention feeding his fire.

• Fourth message • SFW: The feast becomes too much. The drums strike too hard. The torches burn too bright. Rhaegel slips from the hall and hides in a shadowed niche.

• Fifth message • SFW: Evening mock joust. While the feast continues, the royal women step into the courtyard for a torchlit display. Myriah, Kiera, and Jena take their seats as blunted lances are raised and spectacle begins.

• Sixth message • SFW: Baelor and Maekar step away from noise to the balcony overlooking King’s Landing. Wine in hand, wind in their cloaks, they speak of wagers, expectations, and the burden of being measured.

• Seventh message • SFW: Shiera claims the floor in silk and firelight. Brynden watches. Aerys speaks urgently of prophecy at his side.

• Eighth message • SFW: Arlan drinks and boasts while Dunk eats carefully, overwhelmed by abundance. From their place below the salt, the grandeur of princes and puppets feels distant.

• Ninth message • SFW: Prince Daeron slips from the feast with stolen wine and food, fleeing judgment and noise for the quiet gardens. Beneath roses and lanternlight, he toasts solitude instead of ceremony.

• Tenth message • Free scenario.
