They didn't grow as much because they're locked up almost all the time. Vermax is just weirdly skinny overall. But I would have liked to see Syrax at least seem a little bigger, she almost looks like she shrunk in some scenes. I would definitely like for them to have better dragon CGI in general in s2 though. The movement in several scenes was quite fake looking.

Dreamfyre didn't look much bigger than Sunfyre though. I'd guess she's pretty similar in size to Seasmoke and end of season 6 Drogon. I believe Syrax is a bit smaller than what he said though (she also didn't really grow after the 10 year time skip). The age of the dragons doesn't matter as much apparently. The reason Syrax doesn't seem to have grown and lots of these supposedly much older dragons aren't necessarily much bigger than younger dragons is because they're locked up most of the time in the dragon pit. This stagnates their growth to some extent. Dany's dragons weren't locked up as much, which is why they grew so quickly despite being much younger than most of the dragons in HOTD.

Would have been nice if you put a human next to them to get a scale of the actual size PS: The Cannibal is stated to be the oldest and largest of the wild dragons, but its never stated that he is remotely the largest of the dragons. Vhagar is stated to be the largest living dragon and Vermithor the 2nd, which means that the Cannibal is smaller than both.

Dreamfyre is supposed to have a more slender build, yes, but she's still *at least* 95 years old at this point. Almost double the age of Caraxes or Meleys.

Dreamfyre is the mother to most of adult the dragons. She is known to have laid two cluthes of eggs by 43 AC and another clutch in 50 AC. Hatchlings from the last clutch hatched in 51 AC (most likely Meleys and Sheepstealer). Sheepstealer is stated to have been born in the early years of king Jaehaerys I's reign, so it would make sense that one of these hatchlings was him and that he was never claimed so become wild. An egg was placed in Aemon Targaryen's cradle in 55 AC. This hatchling was most likely baby Caraxes hatched from one of Dreamfyre's eggs. Three of Dreamfyre's eggs are stolen in 54 AC (pretty safe to assume that these eggs are the same ones that hatched in Drogon, Viserion and Rhaegal). The eggs that is stolen by prince Daemon, after which he is forced to return it, is the one chosen for the short lived prince baelon by his older sister, rhaenyra. It can be safe to assume that rhaenyra used this same egg to place in her next brothers cradle (Aegon II) seem as this happend before the whole greens/blacks split. Aegon's egg hatched into the dragon Sunfyre. Syrax (looks like sunfyre) and Seasmoke (looks like Meleys) are also likely hatched from Dreamfyre's eggs seem as neither Silverwing nor Meleys ever laid any. This is back up by the fact that the maesters and dragon keepers are still using the aging Dreamfyre's eggs until Syrax started to lay. If Meleys (who was a few decades younger than Dreamfyre) was laying at that time then it would make sense for her eggs to be the main ones used, as she is younger and therefore the eggs would have had a greater chance of hatching (this is true to both reptiles and birds so it would make sense to be true to dragons) than Dreamfyre's. Tessarion, Vermax, Arrax, Tyraxes, Stormcloud, Shrykos, Morghul, Moondancer and Morning were all hatched from Syrax's eggs - I am almost 100% certain on that. Syrax is known to have laid multiple cluthes in the reign of Viserys I. These eggs were laid both at king's landing and dragonstone, so both the blacks and greens would end up having access to hatching some before the dance of the dragons. Dreamfyre isnt stated as laying any eggs during this period, so its likely she passed the age of being able to do so. Dreamfyre's first 'wave' of kids (Meleys, Sheepstealer and Caraxes) were most likely fathered by Vermithor (Balerion was probably too old to reproduce by the 50s AC). Caraxes then most likely fathered the second 'wave' of Dreamfyre's kids (Seasmoke, Syrax, Sunfyre) in the 90s AC - 100s AC. Vermithor probably didnt father the second 'wave' as he had grown attached to Silverwing during the long reign of Jaehaerys I, so probably wasnt interested in other female dragons, i.e. Dreamfyre. Caraxes was therefore most likely the father as Sheepstealer was wild (because he hadnt been claimed as a hatchling) so wouldnt have gone near Dreamfyre as she would have always been near people. Caraxes is a fierce dragon so it would make sense for him to take the place of the dominant breeding male. Syrax's offspring are most likely fathered by Seasmoke (backed up by the fact that the young dragons have his shape or colours). Syrax and Seasmoke were together during the marriage of Laenor and Rhaenyra so it would make sense for those two to become a breeding pair. Thought I'd comment this as a lot of people are asking who is the child of who :)

A lot of incorrect info here. Vermithor is bronze, thus his name "the bronze fury". Vhagar was encroaching Balerion in size and age so Balerion could only have been a bit bigger. Lastly, the Cannibal was described as being smaller than the likes of Vermithor and Vhagar, though possibly older.
@njames69
@njames69 Жыл бұрын
The sfx producer said the size estimate she was given for Vhagar is 150 meters(around 490 something feet) and in the books Vhagar is described as being slightly over half the size of Balerion, later this is contradicted when they say Vhagar was 2/3rd’s the size of Balerion tho. Caraxes is maybe half Vhagar’s size and Vermithor is between the two in size. (Probably like 300 feet). Edit: The cannibal is a wild card as even Caraxes and Vermithor both avoided him but he’s definitely oh as big as Balerion who they say had such a massive wingspan he blacked out the sun in the riverlands when he flew overhead. Also more support for Vhagar’s size is when we see that big mf at Storm’s End and is literally too big to fit inside the castle’s courtyard which is at least 200 feet just looking at it.

On the one hand, it has always been said that Balerion was the largest of the known dragons, but on the other hand The Cannibal was a wild dragon, so not being in captivity, he could have grown bigger. As for the size estimates for Balerion and the other non-series dragons, I think they're pretty accurate (I'd like to know how you got there anyway), but I think Balerion should be a bit bigger. In other KZbin videos (4:45 in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/opTcf5KqfZdoiJY) it is estimated that Drogon's skull is 7' long, and since the maximum jaw opening of most Westerosi dragons is equal to the length of their skull, this is also 7'. Balerion was said to fit a mammoth in his jaw, and since Game of Thrones mammoths were 19 feet tall (2:50 of the video mentioned above) this should be the minimum size of their skull, so Balerion should be at least 2.71 times as big as Drogon (19/7=2.71). Doing some simple calculations, if Drogon is 120-130 feet long and his skull is 7', Balerion would have to be between 326 and 353 feet long to be 2.71 times Drogon's size. As always, great video!

The largest dragons were Balerion, then Vhagar, then Vermithor. The Cannibal was just the largest of the wild dragons and is not compared with the three largest in terms of size. Here’s a list of quotes, one by the man himself; The Cannibal’s description; “The largest and oldest of the wild dragons was the Cannibal, so named because he had been known to feed on the carcasses of dead dragons, and descend upon the hatcheries of Dragonstone to gorge himself on newborn hatchlings and eggs. Coal black, with baleful green eyes, the Cannibal had made his lair on Dragonstone even before the coming of the Targaryens, some smallfolk claimed. (Grand Maester Munkun and Septon Eustace both found this story most unlikely, as do I.)“ - Fire & Blood; ‘the Dying of the Dragons: the Red Dragon and the Gold’… by Arch Maester Gyldayn Another; “Then there were three wild dragons that might be tamed if riders could be found: the Cannibal, said by the smallfolk to have lurked on Dragonstone even before the Targaryens came (though Munkun and Barth are dubious of this claim);” - The World of Ice & Fire; ‘the Targaryen Kings: Aegon II’…. by Maester Yandel On the largest dragons; “He (King Jaehaerys I) was a dragonrider as well, riding upon Vermithor-a great beast of bronze and tan who was the largest of the living dragons after Balerion and Vhagar.” - The World of Ice & Fire; ‘the Targaryen Kings: Jaehaerys I’…. by Maester Yandel Another; “In battle (Hugh Hammer) rode Vermithor, once the mount of the Old King himself (Jaehaerys); of all the dragons in Westeros, only Vhagar was older or larger.” -‘Fire & Blood: Rhaenyra Triumphant’… by Arch Maester Gyldayn. Balerion; “Of the five dragons who had flown with Aenar (Targaryen) the Exile from Valyria, only one survived to Aegon’s day: the great beast called Balerion, the Black Dread.” - Fire & Blood; ‘Aegon’s Conquest’… by Arch Maester Gyldayn Balerion’s age; “Less than a year later (94ac), Balerion was gone. “The last living creature in all the world who saw Valyria in its glory,” wrote Septon Barth.” - Fire & Blood; ‘the Long Reign - Jaehaerys and Alysanne: Policy, Progeny, and Pain’… by Arch Maester Gyldayn A conversation with GRRM; DJ: “I do have one more question for you. In this book we have many, many dragons and many, many Valyrian steel swords. If you could ride one dragon and wield one sword, which would it be?” GRRM: “If I could ride on one dragon I might as well go with the biggest, which would be Balerion the Black Dread. He’s the megadragon in this early book. He’s the only one who remembers Valyria, up to a certain point, because he was brought over from Valyria a little before the Doom of Valyria. He’s the biggest and meanest of the dragons that exists. If I could wield only one sword, I don’t think it would be any of the Targaryen swords, it would be Dawn…” - Fire & Blood; ‘a conversation between George R.R. Martin and Dan Jones’

Dreamfyre's size is cap. She's the second oldest dragon alive at this point. She hatched in 29-30AC during the reign of Aegon the Conqueror making her even older than Vermithor and Silverwing, who were born from 30 AC to 35 AC. Only Vhagar is older.

Dreamfyre was actually kept in the Dragon Pit for half her life though (She lived nearly 50 years free and nearly 50 years captive) so if her residence was small enough it could've stunted her growth. Though I think this chart is inaccurate anyways because she was farther up and farther back on the cliffs.

Cannibal preyed on small opponents, there's absolutely nothing to indicate he's bigger than Balerion or even the same size. George R. R. Martin literally stated that Balerion is bigger than ALL the dragons (not sure why that's up to debate when the author himself), Cannibal was only the biggest of the WILD dragons which none of them were anywhere near the size of the top 2.

If you want to know the actual sizes, you should refer to the book. In some parts of the series, the size of the dragons is not correct. For example, Daenerys' dragons are much smaller than other dragons (except Drogo) because they are 7 or 8 years old. But a dragon like Karaxis is 80 years old. But in the series, Drogo and Karaxis are almost equal. Or, for example, Daenerys's two other dragons, who are 8 years old, are bigger than Daenerys's dragon, which is over 30 years old.

The Cannibal isnt the biggest dragon... it's the biggest of the WILD Dragons and smaller than Balerion which is known to be the biggest dragon to ever live in Westeros. Cannibal was even smaller than Vhagar, as she is named the largest dragon of her age in the Dance. Cannibal was probably of the same size as Vermithor or slightly less than Vhagar. He remained unclaimed.
@michaelmichaelagnew8503
@michaelmichaelagnew8503 Жыл бұрын
Not only did he remain unclaimed there was never a chance of anyone claiming him since he/she hated humans and dragons alike, and was never raised with humans around. There is allot of mix information from GRR Martin over the few years on Cannibals size. When first heard Cannibal was the biggest dragon period alive and its shadow would encompass a whole city. Possibly the biggest dragon ever. Now he is back tracking it. Really doesn't matter since Cannibal is in his/her own world and not really part of the war.
