==Character and appearanceAparência e personalidade==
Bittersteel was a warrior, and looked the part. He was tall and well-made, but also lean and lithe. He was only half Targaryen, so he got the purple eyes, but his hair was black. As a adult he wore a close-cropped beard.
Bittersteel was an angry man, and he never smiled. He was resentful all his life, and had a special loathing for his half brother [[Brynden Rivers|BloodravenCorvo de Sangue]] and [[Mylessa Blackwood]] , who was Bloodravens mother.<ref name=GreatBastards>Citadel [http://www.westeros.org/Citadel/SSM/Entry/The_Great_Bastards/ SSM:The Great Bastards] (December 26, 2005)</ref>
==HistoryHistória==Aegor was angry his whole life, but reserved particular loathing for [[BloodravenCorvo de Sangue]], whose mother, [[Mylessa Blackwood]], had replaced his own as their father's favourite. Aegor also loathed Bloodraven even further when [[Shiera Seastar]], the half-sister of both Bloodraven and himself, chose Bloodraven over him.
In the [[Rebelião Blackfyre Rebellion]], he sided with his other half-brother [[Daemon Blackfyre]]. During the [[Battle of the Redgrass FieldBatalha do Capo do Capim Vermelho]], Aegor commanded the right of Daemon's host.<ref>[[The Mystery Knight]]</ref> Upon Daemon's death, Aegor rallied his troops and charged Bloodraven's archers, taking out his half-brother's eye in the process.
Managing to recover [[Blackfyre]], the Targaryen family sword, Bittersteel fled Westeros at the end of the rebellion to the free city of [[Tyrosh]], with Daemon's remaining sons.<ref>[[The Sworn Sword]]</ref> He served a year with the [[Second SonsSegundos Filhos]] before leaving to create the famous mercenary organization the [[Golden CompanyCompanhia Dourada]] to stop the loss of support for the [[House Blackfyre|Blackfyres]] as the other exile lords began to join other mercenary companies. Despite the notorious unreliability of sellswords, the Golden Company is reputed to have never broken a contract, and reference to their founder can be seen in their words; "Beneath the gold, the bitter steel."<ref>[[A Dance with Dragons]], [[Tyrion II (A Dance with Dragons)|Tyrion II]], page 78, Hardcover</ref>
On his deathbed, Bittersteel commanded the men of the Golden Company to boil the flesh from his skull, dip it in gold and carry it before them when they cross the sea to retake [[Westeros]]. His successors had followed his example.
