History
Youth
Viserys, born in 29 AC,[1] was the third born child of Prince Aenys Targaryen and Lady Alyssa Velaryon.[2] Viserys and his older brother, Prince Aegon, were with their grandfather, King Aegon I Targaryen, on Dragonstone, when he died in 37 AC, whilst telling his grandsons tales of his conquests.[3]
Reign of Maegor I
After the death of King Aenys I Targaryen, Viserys' father, it was not Viserys' older brother who ascended the throne, but Viserys's uncle, Maegor. Viserys was kept at the Red Keep, as Maegor's squire and hostage. After Dowager Queen Visenya Targaryen died in 44 AC, Viserys's mother, Dowager Queen Alyssa Velaryon, fled with Viserys' younger siblings, Jaehaerys and Alysanne.[4]
Because of this, Viserys was tortured for nine days, until he died. His body was left in the courtyard for a fortnight, in the hopes that his mother would feel forced to return to claim the body of her son. Alyssa did not return. At the time of his death, Viserys was fifteen years old.[4]
