Canon Claude Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 I feel like there is a lot of disagreement on which Targaryens were actually mad, and on the definition of “mad” in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craving Peaches Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 I feel that calling all the horrible ones mad is like an excuse. I don't think they were mad, at least not in a way that would excuse them for their crimes. They were just horrible, cruel people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Bittersteel_ Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Aerys and Baelor are the only ones for sure. And I don’t think Aerys was completely mad at first. After the trauma of Duskendale and possible Bloodraven BS he clearly went mad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only male Targaryens go mad. And there were only two during their time in Westeros. Aerys II and Baelor the Blessed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
