Viserys, the younger brother of Aegon III and the son of Rhaenyra and Daemon, succeeds to the throne after both of Aegon's sons die childless. He does not take the throne until age 49, and his reign is short and viewed with some suspicion, as some believe he poisoned his nephew to take the throne. During his one-year reign, he focuses on improving trade and instituting reforms and is known to be wise, if not especially warm.
After just a year on the throne, Viserys dies of a sudden illness, although — once again — some suspect poisoning. His son succeds him as Aegon IV.
