[Costume designer] Jany Temime used prominent shoulder detailing for the gowns that both Rhaenyra and Alicent wear to make their silhouettes more imposing and to subtly suggest that a link remains between them.

S01E10 | “The Black Queen”
Meleys, called the Red Queen, was a she-dragon ridden by Princess Rhaenys Targaryen. She had scarlet scales and pink membranes on her wings, for which she received her alias. Her crest, horns, and claws were bright as copper.
In 75 AC, Meleys was considered to be one of the swiftest dragons in Westeros, easily outpacing Caraxes and Vhagar. By 129 AC, she had grown lazy, but was still fearsome when roused. Meleys was old, cunning and no stranger to battle.

Targaryen week• Day 6: Favourite family dynamic
It was upon the twenty-second day of the fifth moon of the year 130 AC when the dragons danced and died above the Gods Eye. Daemon Targaryen was nine-and-forty at his death; Prince Aemond had only turned twenty. Vhagar, the greatest of the Targaryen dragons since the passing of Balerion the Black Dread, had counted one hundred eighty-one years upon the earth. Thus passed the last living creature from the days of Aegon’s Conquest, as dusk and darkness swallowed Black Harren’s accursed seat. Yet so few were on hand to bear witness that it would be some time before word of Prince Daemon’s last battle became widely known.
