AGOT Long Live Dragons
This mod comes from a simple idea I had (inspired by TikTok and my own headcanon). It changes the story of Westeros by asking: what if the Dance of the Dragons ended differently?
In this version, most dragons did not die. Instead, they survived and are still part of the world. Because of this, many well-known characters now have dragons.
This mod is not focused on being 100% realistic or perfectly accurate to the original story. The main goal is simple: dragons are still alive and active in the world , and that makes things more interesting.
(I should probably write down all the lore changes but not know :p)
- A New Bookmark (Primary Start Date)
Set one year before the Ashford Tournament, this bookmark serves as the main intended start. Prince Baelor is still alive, dragons are present across the realm, and the world is built around this altered history. - Additional Playable Bookmark
Dragons are now implemented up to the “Peake Uprising” bookmark - Other Bookmarks
The later bookmarks are still fully playeble, but the dragons are dead
To properly play the mod, you must disable canon dragons in the game rules.
If not, certain dragons (such as Meleys and Dreamfyre) will continuously generate eggs, leading to effectively infinite dragon spawns.
This is still an early-stage project, and also my first mod , so things are very much a work in progress.
The mod mainly:
- Adds a new bookmark
- Edits historical files
Because of this, it should generally be compatible with most gameplay mods but this is not guaranteed . (for the sreenshots I used AGOT More Dragon Eggs , works just fine)
As this is my first project and I’m still learning, bugs are to be expected. Feedback is very welcome, especially if you have ideas on how to fix issues.
Known Issues:
- dragons are still considered extinct by the game even thought they obviously aren’t?
(I don’t know if it further affects the game because dragon eggs and dragons still hatch) - If canon dragons are enabled, some dragons will produce infinite eggs
- New Dragons don’t show up correctly in the dragon descent overview
- Aegon and the twins don’t equip their dragon eggs
If you encounter other problems, feel free to report them – and if possible, include suggestions for fixes.
I’m open to ideas and feedback on what to add or improve.
That said, the mod is not focused on perfectly recreating every historical consequence of the Dance of the Dragons. Smaller lore details or the exact fate of minor houses are not the priority – this is more about creating an interesting and fun alternate scenario. You can share youre Ideas here in the comments or on my post in the submod section of the offical AGOT DIscord
