Prince Rhaegel Targaryen was the third son of King Daeron II Targaryen and Queen Myriah Martell.

History

Rhaegel was meek, mad, and sickly. During the reign of King Aerys I, it was widely believed that Rhaegel was crazy, as he had been seen dancing naked through the Red Keep.[3]

Rhaegel was married to Lady Alys Arryn, and had three children: the twins Aelor and Aelora, and daughter Daenora. He became Prince of Dragonstone in 209 AC, when his older brother Prince Aerys ascended the Iron Throne, as Aerys had no children of his own. Rhaegel died in 215 AC, whilst choking on a lamprey pie. His son, Prince Aelor, the new Prince of Dragonstone, would not long outlive him.[4]
