Short answer: there’s no prominent Alyssa Targaryen recorded as a central figure in the Dance of the Dragons in the primary source material. From my digging through 'Fire & Blood' and the associated family trees, the crucial Targaryen actors in the Dance are Rhaenyra, Aegon II, their immediate kin, and the Velaryons. If you encountered Alyssa in a forum, fanfic, or roleplay, she’s likely a fan-made character or a mistaken reference to someone like Alysanne (a different era) or another minor family member.

If you want, give me the exact place you saw the name — the chapter, wiki page, or fic — and I’ll walk through the text with you. It’s fun to chase down these little confusions; sometimes the search turns up a neat piece of obscure lore or an awesome fan story worth bookmarking.

I’ll be blunt: I had to double-check because ‘Alyssa Targaryen’ isn’t a headline character during the Dance. When fans talk about the civil war they mean the clash between Rhaenyra and Aegon II and the household names around them — think Rhaenyra’s brood, Daemon Targaryen, Corlys Velaryon, and the tragic Helaena. Most of the Targaryens who actually mattered to the outcome are named clearly in 'Fire & Blood', and Alyssa doesn’t show up as one of those movers and shakers. That said, the fandom is huge and creative; you’ll find fanon Alyssas everywhere in fanfic, roleplay, or alternate timelines.

If you’re researching, check 'Fire & Blood' and the family trees, then peek at reputable wiki entries (those that cite the book) to confirm. If you found Alyssa in a fan-created context, she might have been given a dramatic fate for storytelling reasons — exile, secret marriage, or an off-page death during a dragon raid are common tropes. Tell me where you saw her name and I’ll give you a more specific read — I get a kick out of sorting canon from fan-creation, honestly, like untangling a stubborn pair of headphones but with dragons.

There's a fair chance you're hitting a name mix-up — that happens all the time in the Targaryen family tree, which reads like a lace of repeating names and tragic footnotes. When people ask about 'what happened to Alyssa Targaryen during the Dance', the first thing I do is check whether they actually mean Alysanne (the queen-consort to Jaehaerys I) or one of the many minor Targaryens who barely get a line in 'Fire & Blood'. In the canonical accounts of the Dance of the Dragons, there isn't a major player named Alyssa who plays a key role in the war itself; the big names are Rhaenyra, Aegon II, Helaena, Daemon, and the Velaryons. So if you’re reading fanfic or a community thread, that 'Alyssa' could be a fan-created character or a confusion with another similarly named Targaryen.

If you want hard sources, I’d pull up 'Fire & Blood' first and flip to the Dance sections, then cross-reference the family trees at the back. The important thing to remember is that the Dance devoured a whole generation: many Targaryens and dragons died, houses shifted, and the dynasty was scarred for decades. If you can tell me where you saw Alyssa’s name — a blog, a fanfic, or a stray wiki — I can help pin down whether she’s canonical, a misremembered Alysanne, or a creative new addition. I love tracing these little name-snakes through the lore; it’s like detective work with dragons, and I’m happy to keep digging with you.
