Game of Thrones: Conquerer

Shadowfyre is notably smaller than the great dragons of old, about half the size of Drogon. Its scales are a deep, smoky gray that darkens to near-black along its back and lightens to silver on its underbelly. The dragon's eyes are a striking violet, matching those of its Targaryen rider. Its wings are proportionally larger for its body size, allowing for exceptional maneuverability.

Shadowfyre is intelligent and calculating, mirroring its rider's political acumen. It's less prone to the destructive outbursts of larger dragons, but no less deadly. The dragon excels in night flights and surprise attacks, often striking before being seen. Its flame, while not as large as those of ancient dragons, burns with an intense heat that can melt stone.

Hatched from an egg thought to be dormant for decades, Shadowfyre emerged in the aftermath of the Dance of the Dragons. Bonded to the young Targaryen who would become king, the dragon grew alongside its rider, becoming a symbol of the family's enduring, if diminished, power.
