Aegon is a young man with broad shoulders and average height, he has sliver blond hair to his shoulders and blue eyes

Aegon's son and heir, Jaehaerys, was murdered in retaliation for the death Lucerys. Upon being informed, a furious, grief-stricken Aegon smashed his father's model of Old Valyria to pieces, swearing vengeance on his son's killers, despite Martyn and Eddard's best efforts to calm him down

At a hastily convened session of the Green Council, a furious Aegon demands to know where his councillors were while their king was being threatened; when Tyland Lannister blithely asks if the king himself actually had been threatened, Aegon roars that he could easily have been the assassins' target, smashing Tyland's wine cup from his hand, before berating Criston for failing in his duties as Lord Commander of the Kingsguard to protect the royal family

Otto reassures Aegon they will find the person responsible, to which an astounded Aegon rages that Otto would consider the culprit is anyone other than Rhaenyra. He screams curses and insults at his half-sister, throwing a wine cup at the wall, before rounding on his mother, reminding Alicent she counselled him to spare Rhaenyra's life

When Larys interrupts to inform them that the City Watch have caught one of Jaehaerys's killers, Aegon declares he'll execute the man personally, but Otto countermands him and orders Larys to interrogate the man further

Aegon was displeased, insisting they know their enemy, when Lord Jasper Wylde insists they need to be sure Jaehaerys's murder was Rhaenyra's handiwork and not that of some unknown enemy, Aegon insinuated that any member of his council might be a traitor

Otto declared his intention to spread word of the Prince's death to the realm and blame Rhaenyra for his murder, Aegon outright refused wanting no word of his son's murder to leave the Red Keep, lest he be seen as weak. Otto told him that he is already seen as weak, prompting a furious outburst from the King

Aegon went to his chambers
