Iraxes, the Gilded Queen

The origins of Tyraxes’ egg is shrouded by the mystique. It was an egg that came into the possession of Grand Maester Selwyn on his grand tour of Essos in the first half of the third century. When he returned to Westeros it had already hatched, and was presented to the royals when he was made Maester of Dragonstone. Originally a wild, willful creature there were none that could mount her. That was until the young daughter of Prince Viserys boldly took hold of the dragon in a manner much akin to how her grandfather tamed Viserion. Tyraxes is a resplendent dragon, both large and majestic in appearance. Exceedingly well fed, Tyraxes is not known to often hunt, even when upon the isle of Dragonstone. Despite this, when pressed the great dragon has displayed an acute savagery, marking her as one of the dragonkin to be most feared when roused. She laid a clutch of eggs upon Dragonstone, where they have been kept to this day.
