Now that I have finished all the Fourteen Flames of the Valyrian Pantheon, I decided to do a family tree. Due to the incest, it’s a bit confusing lmao

A little summary:

Terrax (the known world, “Earth”): is the antithesis of Chaos and her creation was set up by Fate. She is the Mother of all Creation, the light that came out of the darkness, the organization of the world from the chaos of cosmos. She is soil and earth and creates Arrax as her companion and they have six children together.

Arrax (Urano): The known world’s sky. Essentially the atmosphere that separates Terrax and the world she built from cosmos (the reign of chaos). Arrax is the first son of Terrax, and becomes her companion, husband and the father of her six children. He betrays her by trying to destroy all her creation and is slain and banished by his children with her aid. In many legends, he fathered Meleys with his daughter, Syrax.

Meraxes (Jupiter): the youngest of Terrax and Arrax’s children. She leads the war against Arrax and later banishes Terrax. The Queen of all the Gods, she becomes the Goddess of the Sky, giving the seas to her brother Caraxes and the underworld to her brother Balerion. Her sister Syrax becomes the new Goddess of earthly life and Vermithor forges the volcanoes. She marries her sister Shrykos, Goddess of marriage and family. She has many kids. Vhagar and Tyraxes with Shrykos, her wife. Vermax, by herself. Perzys and Tessarion with Vermithor. And in some legends, Meleys with Syrax.

Shrykos (Light of creation): Queen consort of all Gods, married to her sister, Meraxes. Mother of Vhagar and Tyraxes.

Caraxes (Neptune): King of the Sea, married to Perzys, God of Fire.

Perzys (Sun): Caraxes’ queen, and twin to Tessarion, the Sun to her Moon.

Tessarion (Moon): Twin to Perzys. Created by Vermithor and Meraxes, the twins meant to became fire and light in the sky.

Vermithor (the chain of Fourteen Volcanoes): the creator for the Gods, made the moon and the sun with Meraxes, and the fourteen volcanoes in the peninsula to represent all Fourteen. He was the one who started the cataclysmic events of the Doom.

Balerion (Pluto): King of the Underworld, married to his niece Meleys, the Goddess of Love and fertility.

Meleys (Venus): Balerion’s queen, daughter of Syrax with either Meraxes or Arrax. Is coveted by Vhagar, who fell in love with her (one-sided).

Syrax (Vegetation): Took over her mother, Terrax, as Goddess of Vegetation and Earthly life, and has a daughter, Meleys, whose paternity varies between legends.

Vhagar (Mars): daughter of Shrykos and Meraxes, lusts after Meleys.

Tyraxes (Chaos//Cosmus//Fate): son of Shrykos and Meraxes.

Vermax (Mercury): son of Meraxes, turns himself into a dragon to travel between worlds.

Dragon Heacanons for my fic Part 6.

Morghul

Because their name means "death" in High Valyrian, Morghul is seen as a dragon to be weary of and this has led to no one wanting to claim them

Morghul has black scales and white eyes which lend to their unsettling reputation

Morghul's gender is no known, the keepers kept a distance from them and eventually, when they were claimed, Morghul's rider as a jest continued to refuse to reveal it

Morghul and their rider were both considered outcasts because Morghul has been rejected by riders and their rider was rejected by a dragon

Due to their young age, Morghul's roar is more high pitched and signals to others "that death is coming"

Shrykos

She hatched at the beginning of the Dance, making her the youngest dragon

Shrykos has dark purple scales with hints of brown, and she has a small defect where her tail is curled upward, the reason why is believed to be from the stress her egg suffered before hatching

Shrykos is shy around other people and is only affectionate with her rider, however, her shyness seems to be limited to humans as she is very friendly with other dragons

She tends to eat smaller food like rabbits

She was the last dragon born during the dance and her birth unknowingly marked an end to the era of dragons
