Description

Moondancer was a young she-dragon, ridden by Lady Baela Targaryen. Moondancer was a swift and slender dragon with pale green scales. Her horns, crest, and wingbones were a pearly white. Moondancer was known for her agility in the air and on land. When Baela Targaryen was thirteen years old, she was deemed too heavy to ride Moondancer. However, a year later, when she was smaller and lighter, Baela was able to mount the dragon despite Moondancer's small size.

Moondancer and her rider, Lady Baela Targaryen, stayed on Dragonstone for most of the initial two years of the Dance of the Dragons conflict. However, when Aegon II Targaryen captured Dragonstone, Baela escaped from her chambers just as the door was being breached. She rushed to the stables and freed Moondancer from her chains, saddling her up quickly. As Aegon II approached Dragonmont's smoking peak on Sunfyre, intending to land triumphantly in the castle's courtyard, Baela and Moondancer took to the air to confront him.

In the battle between Moondancer and Sunfyre, the smaller and younger Moondancer proved to be more agile than the half-crippled Sunfyre. Moondancer inflicted several wounds on Sunfyre's back and malformed wing while avoiding his flames, jaws, and claws. However, Sunfyre managed to blind Moondancer by directly hitting her eyes with his flames. Despite her injury, Moondancer persisted and charged towards Sunfyre, crashing into him and bringing them both down to the ground. Although both dragons survived the fall, Moondancer was unable to match Sunfyre's size and weight on the ground, and ultimately met her demise at the hands of Sunfyre.

Moondancer's carcass was devoured by Sunfyre. Nonetheless, Moondancer had succeeded in mortally wounding her opponent. Sunfyre died in the last month of the year from wounds received during the battle.
