But you are not going to be the on center stage playing it.
You have your own adventure to get through, your own legacy to come and take it.
But you will be able to see things come to pass. and affect them, occisionally. So...
You'll see.
there was also the fact he was probably infertile and he had problems siring a child.
and that drove him to do insane things like a split from the church.
And found the Royal Navy.

Well, IIRC she actually loved Baelon and grieved deeply both for him and Aemma... So there may not be that much of a problem...
So he will be drawn, hanged, and quartered... That if our mom doesn't get him first.
First he has to survive his first year, and even if he is a prince with the best care available there are a lot of things that could kill a babie (thanks good that we have vaccines now)
So I guess next scene is Aemma funeral?

It will be a full Family affair of Targaryen Bonding!
Like I said, he will develop himself... and depending on how he rolls, he may change.
And... That +350 to the starting.
I don't know. I feel like Lucien is already one of the main actors of this play whether he gets directly involved or not.
Obviously we got our own thing like the Stepstones but Lucien is a prince with lots of influence and lots of connections.
Well had some trouble having kids but he did have them. Problem was he wanted a son. Heck he was gonna legitimize a bastard son to succeed him.....Which is something Baelon might do if he was only having daughters with his wife.
Well at least with a son Viserys wont marry again right?
Maybe. Who knows.

If Viserys remarry's Which might not happen, it will be purely for politics, and he will not make another woman go through that kind of pain.
Most likely, he will marry a woman who is old and past child bearing age, who can help him administer the kingdom.

Well, I hope that at least she is a decent person, and that Viserys and her can at least be good friends...
Could be a hard sell for some of the bigger houses. Though not impossible. Marriage is about connecting bloodlines. Though certain houses might be fine with more say in the government in exchange for no kids.

Rumor mill (How the Seven Kingdoms react to Baelon's Birth)
The Crownlands:D100 => 44
The Riverlands:D100 => 65
The Westerlands:D100 => 24
The North:D100 => 42
The Iron Islands:D100 => 42
The Reach:D100 => 79
The Stormlands:D100 => 51
The Vale:D100 => 51
The Realm Mourned for the Death of the Queen.
And while all saw the madness of this… entire event.
They knew the Realm was safe. The Realm had a succession.
---------------------------------
Dorne:D100 => 92
The Triarchy:D100 => 90
Meanwhile:
The Magistrate smiled at the work being done. "It will take a true army to breach the Stepstones. And more than just one dragon?"
---------------------------------
Daemon's Plan:D100 + 350 => 440
Daemon looked at the Letter, and smiled. "Well then. Guess we need an army."
He then looked to Corlys. "Tell me. How many favors are owed to me again, I lost count?"
Corlys smiled. "Far too many from all the Lords of Westeros."
"Well. we may not finish what Aegon started… but I think that's far to overrated. We are going to be making our own histories."
Demon then burned the letter. "Viserys, will he agree?"
You walked into the room, with a sealed letter. "Agree… He's financing it. Though he insists that the Lord see this as a private venture. And I am in agreement. We want our own legacies. He has his own. Best not ruin it by adding his name to our conquest."
"How many dragon riders do you think we'll have?" Daemon asked.
"How many want glory?" You asked. "I've got 4 who are willing to come." Much as you hate it, you needed Aegor and Cannibal, and Rhaenyra wanted to come to be by your side.
"And I got plenty of Lads who retired from the Watch who want to use their swords in a good way."
"We have an army." Corlys said.
"No… WE have a core." You said with a smile, as you then turned to Daemon. "How many men do you think the Lords are willing to allow to join us, and ships?"
Daemon nodded. "Depends, do you think the IronBorn will join us?"
"No." You replied.
"Twenty thousand. Plus another 200 ships coming from the West and Reach.
Reward:
You will be building your army soon.
It's going to be good.
Final update of the day for this quest.

We need to start creating the rumors that it was under the maester guidance that the queen lost many children while when it was our mother who helped things used to end better.
Obviously, we tell somebody else to do it, like Mushroom.

I think this is common knowledge for everyone on the Red Keep, our mom has been taking care of the nursery for almost 10 years and took care of many dozens of births in that time, both from nobles and commoners
So Nyra will try to process her grief by turning Dornish into ashes... It is not the healthiest way of dealing with loss, but at this point it is basically a tradition of our family...

We're not conquering Dorne... or rather, Dorne is not the objective. or rather main objective
The Stepstones are.
Four dragons? Well there is Lucien, Daemon, Aegor, Rhaenyra and Laenor? Rhaenyra is probably more a defensive dragon like holding ground. The rest can easily be offensive dragons. But yeah Luciens and Aegors siblings have too small of dragons currently.
As for our army? Seems like lots of Ships and men coming from all over the kingdoms. So it's gonna be big. Let's these people get their glory and battle experience.

I know, but if we are so successful in the Stepstones that we can also take a good bite out of Dorne I doubt that anyone will care too much.

Hey, we've got Wayword Martell Women pulling a Viserys in Essos... We'll be seeing Dorne soon enough.
The numbers to Baelons birth is interesting. Most of the realm is middling results with the Reach and Riverlands mostly positive. Westerlands seem the most upset. Everyone else mixed feelings with pretty average rolls.
Who knows Baelon could be the one that tries to conquer Dorne here. Maybe hears stories of the Stepstones campaign. And hey if he doesn't try to conquer or attack Dorne he even the true ruler of Westeros? Like a certain Henry the eighth thought?

Uncle Lucien tells him war stories from the stepstones and he decides to finish what we started, getting Dorne some 100 years early would be a interesting prospect for the seven.The numbers to Baelons birth is interesting.

Instead of attacking castles, aim for the river called the Greenblood, I think. Blockade all ports and use the desert against the Dornish.

Eh, there really aren't many men who can actually handle that kind of naval blokade after the... Sea Snake and Dad.
We don't have the Oaken Fist yet.
It seems Rhaenyra will be coming to the Stepstones after all, leaving the Red Keep wihout a Princess.
Probably Alicent will take over Aemma charity projects and duties with Nyra other ladies in wanting while a balance is found in the wake of the Queen and Princess absence.
So Lucien, plus Aegor, Rhaenyra and Laenor?

Maybe. But dragons burning Dornish food supply will force them to a dire situation.
