Damsel in Distress Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Which two men, or women, would make the best wingmen (wingwomen) for Queen Daenerys and her Drogon?

Wolf's Bane Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I expect Viserion and Rhaegal do not need riders. They can follow Drogon since he is the Alpha. Dany rides Drogon, Viserion and Rhaegal follow along. If you simply must have wingmen or wingpeople, I choose Greyworm and Missandei. Greyworm shows no fear and Missandei is very good at sensing feelings. She can read Rhaegal's emotions and use that to help her bond with him.

This goes against everything I have read or heard on dragonlore. Dragons have riders or they tend to go wild like Cannibal or Grey Ghost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosetta Stone Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 My choice for Dany's wingmen are Greyworm and Missandei. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Light a wight tonight Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Why would the other dragonriders be on Dany's side? A second Dance of Dragons would pit Dany against Aegon,and he'd be dragon-mounted, too, probably on Rhaegal, the most vicious of the three. I don't understand your list of possibilities. Brown Ben Plumm would be much more likely than at least half of the entries, and Bran more likely than a couple of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is absolutely no proof that Drogon can lead Viserion and Rhaegal and there is no such thing in the books.

I can bet that we will never get an answer about why those special humans like Tumco Lho, Penny, Jorah and Willas were chosen. After all who can forget how many spectacular weddings were between Valyrian families and families from Basilisk Isles, the Mormonts the Drinkwaters? After all who wouldn't want a wingman like Gerris after all those compliments he has said for her? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are no other dragons. Daenerys will have control of all three of HER dragons. I do not see the need for wingmen. But if there have to be, I will pick Greyworm and Jorah because of their proven loyalty. Barristan and Rakharo are also good choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tum co Lho will be badass swordsman before too long. I say keep him on the ground and let him continue his training. He doesn't need to become a pilot in order to become useful to Dany.

Let me guess you don't because this is your fan fiction and not what is in the books. Just like how people like Barristan and Rakharo with no Valyrian blood with be able to tame a dragon.

Nictarion Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Daenerys controlling all three could certainly be a possibility. We've never heard of it before, but we also never heard of someone hatching multiple eggs at once. The Targaryen children were given a single egg. I also doubt previous Targaryens/Valyrians nursed their dragons at their own breast. Dany truly is the Mother of Dragons. Hers is a unique relationship with all three. That said, if there is other riders I'm going with Jon and Tyrion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone else does it before her, the dragons will be theirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
