Blackfyre Sword - Book Edition

The Blackfyre Book Edition Sword represents absolute authority in Westeros. First carried by Aegon the Conqueror when he departed Dragonstone to claim the Seven Kingdoms, Blackfyre became more than an ancestral weapon. It emerged as a defining symbol of House Targaryen and the right to rule. This officially licensed Valyrian Steel replica captures the presence, scale, and historical weight of the blade that helped shape an empire.

The History of Blackfyre in Westeros

Throughout his reign, Aegon I wielded Blackfyre in both war and peace, establishing it as the sword of kingship. Upon his death, the blade passed to his heir, Aenys I, who later gifted it to his younger brother Maegor, a decision many believed legitimized Maegor’s eventual usurpation of the throne. For generations afterward, Blackfyre continued to be carried by Targaryen kings, reinforcing its status as a living emblem of power.

The sword’s legacy took a dramatic turn in 182 AC when Aegon IV bestowed Blackfyre upon his bastard son Daemon instead of his legitimate heir. Daemon adopted the name Blackfyre and founded House Blackfyre, a claim strengthened when Aegon IV legitimized him on his deathbed. These events culminated in the Blackfyre Rebellion of 196 AC. Daemon was slain in battle, and the sword was carried away by his half brother Aegor “Bittersteel” Rivers across the Narrow Sea, where Blackfyre vanished from recorded history.
