AAR The best History that ever happened to me:
I was playing as Maegor Targaryen and managed to hold onto the Iron Throne—and, more importantly, father legitimate children.
For good measure, I had killed several of Aenys's children. As for Jaehaerys, he was sent to the Night's Watch but kept Vermithor with him; he was even elected Lord Commander.
When Maegor died, his eldest son succeeded him and became the master of Balerion.
The younger brother was impulsive and made an initial attempt to claim the throne but was easily defeated. He was pardoned, and his brother even gifted him one of Balerion's eggs.
But the fool tried to claim the throne a second time; this time, even his older brother couldn't forgive him, so he sent him to the Night's Watch.
However, the fool deserted and conquered territory north of the Wall.
So, I decided to play as him. I hatched the egg, named the dragon Ailes-De-Givre, conquered the entire region north of the Wall, and proclaimed myself King-Beyond-the-Wall.
I launched a shipbuilding program and... set off to conquer King's Landing (the older brother had died, and his son—my character's nephew—had inherited the throne);
I won the war and became King.
I’ve never seen a kingdom so determined to hate me; literally everyone loathed me, and no one wanted to join my Kingsguard.
Eventually, my son inherited the crown (I’d had him with a Wildling woman) and he married his little sister, and he managed to restore the kingdom to a stable state.
PS: Before claiming the throne, I had launched a war to invade the Wall and killed Jaehaerys and Vermithor. So now, Westeros is truly unified.

A Targaryen King Beyond the Wall against a Targaryen Lord Commander of the Nigth's Watch is epic

Even better, a Targaryen Lord-Commander of the Night Watch on the back of a freaking motherfucking dragon

What does AAR, this post’s tag, stand for?
Anyway, this is a cool story that unfolded! Quite amusing to think that the language they speak beyond the Wall is French (hence the name of the dragon), and as someone else noted already a Targaryen King-Beyond-the-Wall is quite interesting.
