Ser Mungo Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Okay so the Targaryens have a natural resistance to fire, but what if their words mean more than the literal? So what effect would dragon blood have on them if they drink it for instance? Healing powers? (drink in case of flux...). And what other powers could dragon blood bestow?

Pod The Impaler Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 They sometimes say they have resistance to fire, but what Dany has shown may actually be a sort of magic, rather than being literally fireproof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMysteriousOne Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Is there a thread that new forum members can read before they start posting about Targs? Cause it's pretty exhausting telling them everytime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolorous Nedd Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 They do not have a natural resistance to fire.What is your explanation of Dany not getting seriously burned when she hatched the dragon eggs? I have seen a theory that Targs can be fire proof in cases where a major prophecy is going to be fulfilled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But she does get burns from riding Drogon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Summer is Ending Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Eh?Granny Do Targaryens become immune to fire once they "bond" to their dragons? George_RR_MartinGranny, thanks for asking that. It gives me a chance to clear up a common misconception. TARGARYENS ARE NOT IMMUNE TO FIRE! The birth of Dany's dragons was unique, magical, wonderous, a miracle. She is called The Unburnt because she walked into the flames and lived. But her brother sure as hell wasn't immune to that molten goldhttp://web.archive.org/web/20001005212114/eventhorizon.com/sfzine/chats/transcripts/031899.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the author himself has said, multiple times, that what happened with Dany was a freak occurrence and had no bearing on Targaryen immunity in general, or for that matter Dany herself on future occasions?

Thendel Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 I do think there's something about the power of Valyrians having something to do with blood magic.There's a group on this forum that believes it was MMD's blood magic that did the trick on the dragons coming to life. Blood magic, and not any of the weird stuff the Targaeryens tried to make their own eggs hatch. Also, Euron's hellhorn is associated with blood numerous times, and given that the Valyrians controlled their dragons with horns like that, there's reason to believe that the power of Valyria stems from blood magic.

His hand when tossing the curtain at the wight. Dany has a unique experiance in the funeral pyre. But after in Meeren riding Drogon she gets burns upon her hands.
