Aparência
Dragões são criaturas reptilianas com escamas, com apenas duas pernas e duas asas (usando suas asas como pernas da frente, apesar de alguns desenhos relacionados à Canção de Gelo e Fogo exibi-los com quatro patas e um par de asas). Tem dentes e garras afiadas, asas de couro e pescoços e caudas longas, com cristas espinhosas nas costas. Quando pequenas, tem o tamanho de um gato, e podem chegar a tal estatura que podem engolir um mamute inteiro. Os polidos crânios dos dragões Targaryen parecem ônix brilhante, e seus dentes são adagas curvadas de diamante negro. Seus ossos são negros devido à grande concentração de ferro. Osso de dragão é uma matéria prima muito procurada.[1]
Características
Great heat emanates from dragons' bodies, to the point that they steam during cold nights. They breathe extremely hot fire and cook their meat before eating it.[2] They are capable of forming strong attachments to humans who raise them. They have a reasonably high level of animal intelligence, and can be trained to serve as battlemounts and receive vocal commands.
Dragons grow throughout their lives, but it is unknown how long they can live or how large they can grow. The largest and oldest Targaryen dragon, Balerion, lived about 200 years and could swallow a mammoth whole, but dragons raised in captivity are thought to be smaller than their wild brethren.[3] They have no gender differentiation, but lay large, scaled eggs to reproduce.[4]
Dragons are believed to be intrinsically tied to magic and the seasons of the world. Since dragons became extinct from Westeros, the power of magic dwindled and winters grew colder.
Tales of ice dragons with cold breath were told in Winterfell by Velha Ama. It is undetermined if such dragons are entirely fictional.[5]
História
Dragons are native to the continent of Essos, and were discovered some five thousand years ago by the Valírians in the Quatorze Fogos, a ring of volcanoes on the Valyrian Peninsula. The Valyrians mastered the art of raising dragons and used them as weapons of war to carve out a grandioso Império. After the Perdição de Valíria, the only dragons known to have survived were the three dragons belonging to the Targaryens, on Pedra do Dragão.
The Targaryens used them to conquistar and forge the Sete Reinos. Over the course of one hundred and fifty years the Targaryens rode their dragons as symbol of power, Rei Jaehaerys I, used Jaehaerys took six dragons with him to the North to visit the Protetor do Norte.[6] They built the Fosso do Dragão in Porto Real to raise and house their dragons and at one time had at least nineteen dragons(the number of dragon skulls stored by the Targaryens in the Red Keep cellars).[1] Over the centuries, the Targaryen dragons died out, most of them were killed in the Targaryen civil war known as the Dança dos Dragões and in later generations did not grow as large as their parents.
The last dragon was a stunted, sick and misshapen thing, and died young during the reign of Rei Aegon III, the Dragonbane.[7] She had been a green female, small, stunted with withered wings. She laid a clutch of five eggs,[8] which never hatched.[9] It has been suggested by meistres that dragons were meant to be beneath the sky rather than cooped up in cages or cells in the Dragonpit, however massive.
After their extinction, the only remnants of dragons that remained were their skulls and a few petrified eggs. The eggs were highly valuable, both for their beauty and exotic nature as well as their potential to hatch dragons. Many futile attempts were made to hatch dragons from petrified eggs. The Tragédia de Solarestival resulted from Aegon V's attempt. Aegon III, known as the Veneno do Dragão, had nine mages cross the narrow sea to use their magics in attempt to hatch eggs. Baelor I, o Abençoado, took a different approach, praying over eggs in attempt to hatch them. The art of taming and commanding dragons enough to ride is considered lost, aside from a few exceedingly rare books.
Ultimately, Daenerys Targaryen managed to hatch three dragons by sacrificing Mirri Maz Duur in her esposo's funeral pyre and stepping into the flames. With Daenerys's exchange of life for life, the first three dragons in over a hundred years were born.
According to legend, a dragon may be tamed by sounding the Dragon Horn.[10]
