Blackfyre | Aegon the conqueror Sword | House Targaryen Replica Sword

Blackfyre is the fabled hand-and-a-half longsword of Valyrian steel, once wielded by Aegon the Conqueror — the most famous of the two ancestral swords of House Targaryen. Lord of the Rings Aegon carried it throughout his reign and across countless battles, and upon his death it was passed to his successors on the Iron Throne.

The sword's most infamous chapter came in 182 AC, when King Aegon IV gifted Blackfyre to his legitimised bastard son Daemon rather than his scholarly heir. Daemon took the name Blackfyre after the blade and formed a rival house — setting in motion the Blackfyre Rebellion, one of the bloodiest civil wars in the history of Westeros. The rebellion failed, Daemon was slain, and the sword was carried across the Narrow Sea, lost to history.
