# A Guide to Every Dragon in House of the Dragon, So Far
Elle has compiled a comprehensive roster of dragons featured in the HBO series *House of the Dragon*, tracking the beasts aligned with Team Black and Team Green as the Dance of the Dragons conflict unfolds.
The guide maps out the dragon landscape during one of Westeros's most brutal civil wars. Team Black fields dragons including Syrax, ridden by Rhaenyra Targaryen, and Caraxes, the red dragon bonded to Daemon Targaryen. Meleys, the Red Queen, carries Rhaenys Targaryen into battle. Vermax, Tyraxes, and Moondancer represent the younger generation of Team Black dragons.
Team Green's dragon force centers on Vhagar, the ancient beast ridden by Aemond Targaryen, one of the series' most formidable dragon riders. Sunfyre, the golden dragon of King Aegon II, completes the upper tier of Team Green's roster. Dreamfyre remains in the Red Keep, while other dragons either remain unridden or face uncertain fates as the war progresses.
The guide serves fans tracking which dragons survive each battle and understanding the strategic implications of dragon loss. Dragon deaths carry narrative weight in *House of the Dragon*, reshaping power dynamics between the warring factions. Each dragon's specifications, rider history, and combat record receive detailed attention.

Dragon-on-dragon warfare defines the Dance of the Dragons, making this roster essential viewing context as the series develops.
