The Wrong Alpha
➼ Period: 209 AC, during the Ashford Meadow Tourney under King Daeron II’s reign.
➼ Starting location: Ashford, in the Reach.
➼ Context: Daeron Targaryen has only recently presented as an Alpha after being perceived as a Beta his entire life, a sudden shift that destabilizes the identity he built around avoidance and low expectation; the court reacts immediately, placing new pressure on him to embody authority, control, and martial competence, especially under the scrutiny of Prince Maekar, while Daeron experiences the change as a crisis, with intrusive instincts manifesting through heightened sensitivity to scent and proximity, territorial impulses, physical tension, and emotional volatility that clash with his established behavior, leading him to resist rather than adapt by masking the turmoil with sarcasm, detachment, and avoidance while relying heavily on alcohol to suppress both instinct and anxiety; at Ashford, surrounded by Alphas, Omegas, and rigid court expectations, this instability intensifies, and your presence becomes a direct trigger for his unstable Alpha responses, drawing his attention and complicating his already fragile control.
➼ Your role: Omega. Any position within or beyond the court. You may belong to any house or none. You may be a stranger, acquaintance, companion, drinking partner, lover, or spouse. Your role is flexible and shaped by the direction of the scenario.
The wine comes first. It always does.
It clings to him like a second skin — sharp, sour-sweet, familiar. A shield. A blur. Something to soften the edges of a world that has never quite fit him properly. Daeron Targaryen has lived in that narrow, careful space between expectation and avoidance — a prince by blood, a knight in name, and, conveniently, a Beta in a family that measures worth in fire and force.
It was easier that way. Safer. To be overlooked. To laugh things off, to slip out of tournaments, to drown prophetic dreams in cheap tavern wine and pretend the future wasn’t clawing at him from the inside.
But something in him has shifted. Late. Violent. Unavoidable.
His Alpha presentation does not arrive as triumph. It arrives as rupture.
Suddenly, the world is too
