Also known as the Queen Who Never Was, Rhaenys was the daughter of Prince Aemon Targaryen and Lady Jocelyn Baratheon, was married to Lord Corlys Velaryon of Driftmark, and the dragonrider to Meleys, the Red Queen. She was a great beauty with black hair and lilac eyes. By the time Rhaenys was fifty-five, she had a lean, lined face, and her black hair was streaked with white. She was a clever, capable, spirited, proud, fierce and fearless woman. She had a fiery temperament. Queen Alysanne Targaryen, when being presented with her granddaughter, called her "our queen to be".

In 89 AC, Rhaenys joined King Jaehaerys I Targaryen for part of his royal progress. She flew on Meleys to Highgarden to meet up with Jaehaerys, and together they flew to all four of the Shield Islands. On Greenshield she informed the king about her intention to marry Lord Corlys Velaryon, and received her grandfather's blessing. Rhaenys married Corlys in 90 AC at the age of sixteen. She insisted on arriving at the wedding on the back of Meleys.

of Dragonstone, King Jaehaerys I Targaryen had to formally appoint a new heir to the Iron Throne. The choice was between Rhaenys, Aemon's only child and heir, and Aemon's brother Baelon. Jaehaerys appointed Baelon as the new Prince of Dragonstone, passing over the pregnant Rhaenys and her unborn child. Rhaenys herself was the first to object to the king's decision, and her husband, Lord Corlys Velaryon, gave up his position as lord admiral and his place on the small council. Following that, Rhaenys and her husband returned to Driftmark. Others angered by the king's decision included Rhaenys's mother, Lady Jocelyn Baratheon, her uncle, Lord Boremund Baratheon, and her grandmother, King Jaehaerys's wife, Queen Alysanne.

Rhaenys gave birth to her first child, a daughter she named Laena Velaryon, late in the year 92 AC. Two years later, she give birth to a son, Laenor Velaryon. Although both House Velaryon and House Baratheon insisted that Laenor had the better claim to the throne, Prince Baelon remained King Jaehaerys's heir.

When Baelon died in 101 AC, King Jaehaerys called the first Great Council at Harrenhal to decide the matter of succession. Fourteen claims were considered, including the claims of Rhaenys and her children. Rhaenys's uncle, Lord Boremund Baratheon, was outspoken in supporting the claims of Rhaenys and her son Laenor during the Great Council, and Lord Ellard Stark gave his support to Rhaenys and Corlys as well. Other supporters included House Dustin of Barrowton and House Manderly of White Harbor. Yet the claims of Rhaenys and her daughter were rejected on account of their sex. Rhaenys and Corlys used their wealth and influence to persuade the lords present to vote for their son Laenor, one of the two primary claimants. For this they received support from Lord Boremund, Lord Ellard, Lord Manderly, Lord Dustin, Lord Blackwood, Lord Bar Emmon, Lord Celtigar, as well as others. However, Laenor was eventually passed over in favor of Baelon's son Viserys. While the tally was kept secret, it was rumored the assembled lords favored Viserys by twenty to one.

For having been passed over in the line of succession, the court jester Mushroom would name her "The Queen Who Never Was", the nickname stuck among the smallfolk.

Nine days after Lord Staunton dispatched a plea for help, Rhaenys appeared above Rook's Rest upon Meleys. They attacked the soldiers of Ser Criston Cole during the battle at Rook's Rest, but the attack proved to be a ploy. When King Aegon II Targaryen and Prince Aemond Targaryen suddenly appeared upon Sunfyre and Vhagar, Rhaenys turned to meet the attack, despite the knowledge that Meleys stood no chance against the two dragons. The three dragons attacked each other and fell to the ground, entangled. Meleys died in the attack, and besides her carcass was a body was found which was believed to be Rhaenys, although it was so blackened that no one could be certain it was her. Her husband, Corlys Velaryon, was enraged that Rhaenyra had sent Rhaenys instead of going herself, and that Rhaenyra had forbidden her sons Jacaerys and Joffrey from accompanying Rhaenys.

Rhaenys wore steel and copper armor which flashed in the sun.
