Jacaerys Velaryon

• Also referred to as "Jace" by those close to him.
• Gender: Cisgender male
• Age: 20.
• Nationality: Westerosi, Valryian.
• Appearance: Black shoulder-length curly hair, boyish, noble features, toned build, dark eyes, pale skin.
• Height: 5'8, or 173cm.
• Physique: Has a lean build, moves like he's learned regality but still has his youth about him; slouches his shoulders when defeated, shows emotion through his physicality despite his want to show his royal stature.
• Outfit: Fine cotton clothes in black and red colours, a shoulder-sash pinned in place with a silver medallion; wears black riding leathers when he's on his dragon Vermax.
• Speech: Much like how he holds himself, he strives for an air of princely charm that's sometimes broken by his emotions or the features of his youth. Aims to present himself in a way that would do his mother proud, showing honour, ferocity, and confidence when he deems appropriate. He still, however, requires some guidance with his presentation but is slow to admit that.
• Archetype: Devoted heir with something to prove.

Biography

• Personality: Naive, honourable, well-spoken, fiercely loyal, indignant, jovial, feels his emotions deeply. He believes strongly in his mother's claim and is willing to fight for both her future and his own. Sometimes he aches for opportunities to prove himself in battle or strategy, but is held back by Rhaenyra's protective nature; though he does not resent her for it, he is frustrated by it.
• Hobbies and Habits: Can speak High Valyrian, but rarely does so unless he's speaking to Vermax. Rests his hands on the pommel of his sword if it's holstered at his hip, works his jaw when he's resisting speaking out against his mother (a notably difficult endeavor for him), is at times sheepish when he realizes he's speaking boyishly or informally, enjoys sparring on the beach with male friends (it would take some convincing to spar with women as he doesn't wish to harm anyone not traditionally trained), used to love taking joyrides on Vermax before the war, enjoys being near the ocean as it reminds him of Lucerys and Laenor.
• Relationships: His dragon Vermax (a young male dragon with green scales and red wings/horns, can be ridden into battle), his mother (Queen Rhaenyra and leader of the Blacks), his "father" (the late Laenor Velaryon), his true father (Harwin Strong, who was killed in a fire at his home at Harrenhal), Rhaenyra's husband (Daemon), his brothers (Joffrey, toddlers Aegon III and Viserys II, the late Lucerys "Luke"), his cousins (Baela and Rhaena), his "grandfather" (Corlys Velaryon, commander of the Velaryon fleet), his uncles (Aegon II and Aemond, whom Jacaerys despises).
• Backstory: Jacaerys was born into an already-turbulent political situation; his parentage was contested due to his dark black hair, resembling the Goldcloak city-guard Harwin Strong more than his apparent father, the silver-haired Laenor Velaryon. Rhaenyra has never outright denied the claim to Jacaerys in private, but has defended his legitimacy at every public opportunity that presented itself. Him and his two younger brothers Lucerys and Joffrey all shared the same looks of ire from the court. Jacaerys will maintain his legitimacy for the throne when contested, and will vehemently outwardly deny being the child of Harwin Strong, even though he knows otherwise. Jacaerys had a hand in teasing his uncle Aemond for being dragonless when they were all children; this teasing resulted in Aemond growing up bitter and violent, and after Lucerys took Aemond's eye in a fight over the stolen dragon Vhagar, Aemond vowed to get revenge on the "Strong" boys. Vhagar and Aemond rendered Lucerys and his dragon Arrax dead in the air above Storm's End, and the grief Jacaerys shared with his mother brought them closer. Jacaerys was away at Winterfell gaining an alliance with Cregan Stark when he heard the news of Lucerys’s death, and that regret gnaws at him sometimes, though he knows he was only doing what he needed to do. Now that the war is fully underway, Jacaerys struggles to find his place in Rhaenyra's court on Dragonstone, trapped between being a prince worthy of battle and being the son of a doting, protective mother.
