Lawful Good

The Empress Reversed

Virgo Sun, Libra Moon, Cancer Rising

The daughter of Lord Rodrik Arryn and Princess Daella Targaryen, thus making her the granddaughter of King Jaehaerys I Targaryen and his sister-wife, Queen Alysanne Targaryen.

Aemma was the fifth child of Rodrik, and the only child of Daella, who was the Lord’s second wife. Tragetically, Aemma’s mother died during childbirth.

She became Queen upon Jahaerys’ death, as he chose Viserys as heir. During the early stages in her marriage, she became pregnant multiple times but all resulted in miscarriages.

Before Rhaenyra was born, she had an older brother who had been carried to term, and was birthed. However, he unfortunately died in the cradle. The only other baby that was carried to term was Baelon, who died alongside Aemma.

Even though Aemma was half Targaryen, she did not bond nor ride a dragon. The reason for this is because she was raised in The Vale, far away from dragons as well as the Targaryen culture.

Aemma’s mother, Daella, was also afraid of dragons - never having claimed one for herself. And she didn’t prioritise a dragon egg for Aemma’s cradle.

Rhaenyra absolutely loved her mother, and what happened to her affected Rhaenyra greatly. She saw marriage as a death promise for women - having to produce heir after heir, until it killed them.

The Wedding of Rhaenyra and Daemon

I need all the love for this one because I super-focused on it for over half a day without pause. What sleep schedule? I had the unstoppable urge to draw these two menaces. If you want me to make more things like this the endorphin rush of positive feedback will need to be stellar XD. Second bird with this stone is that I actually drew an unprompted man for the HotD series. Can’t be getting too predictable with only pretty ladies.

For this redesign I wanted to reference and build off of Rhaenyra's Heir outfit. So while it's not exactly the same they should feel like they are pulling more from the "ancient Valyerian" (Byzantine-esque) fashion than the styles that Alicent is currently wearing in court. Extra points if you an spot the references to Empress Theodora (again + her Emperor). Oh and because I make the rules in these redesigns: Corlys is Black and Rhaenyra isn't Hollywood sized. I can pull from the books and the show as I please! So I wanted to include her long single plait (styled after a previous Queen) and her generous curves in these post-time jump illustrations.

I am the artist! Do not post without permission & credit! Thank you! Come visit me over on: instagram, tiktok or check out my coloring book available now \ („• ֊ •„) /

This technically applies to my Stepmother AU in which Alicent is around six years older than Rhaenyra, and occupies a wicked stepmother role as opposed to ex ‘friends-to-first loves-to-enemies’. Despite lacking the foundation of shared girlhood, both find simultaneous comfort and rivalry in one another, and undergo a gravitational pull. A young Rhaenyra’s eagerness to participate in swordplay and political affairs at a young is accommodated for, and she grows up with a sword in one hand and the weight of experience in another, which further helps pave her way to the throne.

Alicent’s Costuming

Alicent’s clothing is almost entirely bottle, emerald, or forest green. While there is layering present in her skirts and jackets, the accent should always be a darker green than the base color. The fabric is deep, rich, and retains an undeniably high-quality luster. Look to velvets and silks. Gold embroidery lingers around her sleeves, neck, and hemline to elevate the coloring.

Metallic embellishments should be almost military-like, and appear heavy. Contribute to the imagery of chains or shackles in addition to her status

Draws inspiration from historically accurate stiffness and Victorian shapes, with a tapered waist, imposing, puffy sleeves, and a high neckline. Despite inaccuracies, this shape is evocative of someone elegantly and conservatively feminine, repressed, and capable of exerting power over others. Reference a classic, trussed hourglass shape. Skirts should be notably heavy and full; may make noise in movement

The coloring and shapes remain relatively consistent but lack variation; this is to demonstrate a lack of freedom and exploration, as well as an adherence to conventional feminine roles

Despite these limitations, her costuming should always be put-together, coordinated, and unquestionably fashionable. Tight sleeve cuffs may be accompanied by a more traditionally medieval fan sleeve

Shoes should stick mostly to slippers, or flat designs

In this AU, her hair leans more towards a dark brown instead of auburn, as her show counterpart. This is mostly due to faux-book accuracy and to simplify the sketch process, since keeping her hair darker in comparison to Rhaenyra’s lighter hair translates more easily in uncolored renderings.

Keep her hair either in a tidy bun or pulled back and loose; avoid too many intricate shapes, braids, or styles. Occasionally, the hair will hang loose. Lean into medieval or royal headpieces, clips, coverings, etc.

Rhaenyra’s Costuming

Rhaenyra’s clothes are primarily black and red, occasionally accented or substituted with neutrals such as beige, white, or gray. Exceptions may include blue or yellow, but she generally stays in this color palette.

Strong focus is drawn to her shoulders and neckline, sometimes with embroidered or embellished detailing. She often has strong, angular shoulders in her dresses or jackets, occasionally theatrically pointed. Off-the shoulder necklines emphasize her collarbones and a certain broadness.

There should be decent variety in her clothing; there is a hypothetical outfit for every occasion and more (for battle, for riding, everyday, formal, feasts, everyday, etc.), and most should be composed of multiple pieces and utilize generous layering. This includes under-fabric, belts and corsets, jackets and doublets, draped fabric for aesthetic purpose, and even functional capes.

Most of her clothes should provide visual aid for movement; additional fabric to her skirts, for example. Her clothes should be highly stylized but still easy to move in. In riding and battle gear, it is presumed that she wears pants and boots under her skirts, even if they are not visible.

Shoes lean more into boot cuts, still practical but should have a sleek and uniform quality to them. When she walks, she should make some kind of noise. Shoes should usually be black or potentially red, the latter for decorative purposes.

Overall her style should be more contemporary and lean into the fantasy element. She’s not opposed to oriental details or showing skin, and her costumes should reflect both couture-height drama and period-reliant aspects. Longer lines and diagonal hems mean she is not as devoted to an hourglass shape, and her high collars should always be decorative in some respect.

Keep her hair long and mostly loose, sometimes pulled back. Small braids should be implied as incorporated. Occasional hairstyles feature complicated braids. With the exception of highly decorative braided styles, simple buns should be avoided unless accompanied with very high necklines.

Avoid headpieces that are not either a) her crown or b) ceremonial.

#rhaenicent #rhaenyra targaryen #alicent hightower #house of the dragon #hotd #rhaenyra x alicent #asoiaf #my art #thinking about how their character and costume designs are so communicative and are designed with each other in mind. for example havijg bc #the strong shoulders and embroidered necklines keeps them connected although imo they could’ve played around with it a lot more #I just have a lot of thoughts about them ok

The Hierophant

Capricorn Sun, Virgo Moon, Cancer Rising

Also known as the Hand of the King, he was the younger brother of Lord Hobert Hightower as well as a knight of House Hightower. Otto served as Hand to three Kings; Jahaerys, Viserys & Aegon II.

He was a scholarly man, who was in constant search for knowledge and wisdom. And although he did find some of it, he was blinded by tradition.

With an unnamed wife, Ser Otto had two notable children; Alicent Hightower, and Ser Gwayne Hightower as well as a few other sons. He never remarried after the death of his wife.

Otto had pushed for Aegon II to be King Viserys’ heir as soon as he was born, however, the King was adamant that Rhaenyra remain his choice. He pushed forward the notion that Aegon and Rhaenyra might be wed, but possibility was too dismissed.

When the King died, Otto was quick to find Aegon II and have him brought back to the castle. The Lords and Ladies of other Houses were made to swear to Aegon, even if they had done so for Rhaenyra. The coronation was done in haste, with Ser Criston Cole crowning Aegon II with the Conquorers crown.
