Aegon V Targaryen

Aegon V Targaryen, known as Aegon the Unlikely, is identified as the fourth son of Maekar I and is assigned a reign from 259 to 262. The brief dynastic record places him between Maekar I and Jaehaerys II, marking his position in the royal succession without describing his rule or its events.

Identity and Record

The succession entry names him as Aegon V and gives him the epithet the Unlikely. It identifies him as Maekar I’s fourth son, establishing his place within the Targaryen family but offering no further account of his early life or the circumstances behind the epithet.

Reign and Succession

The chronology dates Aegon V’s reign to 259–262, following Maekar I’s period, which ends in 259, and preceding the entry for Jaehaerys II. The record supplies these dates and his place in the sequence, but does not detail his accession, government, or the transition to his successor.
