Born a Laeliare in 1428, Maera is next to the egg of Ramel at the very second of her life. The dragon hatching almost at the same time Queen Amaerys had let her last ached breath out of her mouth while her body rested from giving life. Maera's childhood had always been rather bright as she was known as "King Laenar's delight". Whenever her name was mentioned into the case of succession, Laenar would brush the topic off as he did not want to put his daughter into such things so young. Young, Maera was already close to Mavor, one of her cousins. Though the latter never understood her love for Dragons, has they terrified her deeply. Maera was a reckless, curious and free-spirit as a child, and is still as an adult. Lots of people claimed she'd do all the bad life choices as a grown-up, but the ones who dared to whisper such words often lost their tongues due to the sharp sword of King's Laenar, before being fed to the beasts.

As soon she and Ramel were big enough, they'd go on rides together to eat snacks on the top of a hill and look at the stars together. They were always beside one another and bonded like sisters over the years. Ramel is definitely Maera's bestfriend, and so is she. She would sometimes be found in her pit, asleep against her. Maera would also often tell stories to Ramel to entertain her. While, the Dragon kept listening to her.

As a teen which would be considered her fourteen to seventeen candles, Princess Maera was considered to be frivolous and even debauched by some due to the rumours of her giving her maidenhood to a knight she deeply cared about at a certain time. if not even a folk from a village she got attached to. She then got questioned if she still was valued enough to be queen, and the King made the assumptions shut when his sweet girl started to cry saying if she was a boy, she could father dozens of bastard on a single whim, and that she didn't ask being born a woman. Although he did give her a tea that'd assure an abortion if she ever got pregnant from it, which would awake the rumours about her. Princess Charlotte always disliked her, saying she tarnished the reputation of noble girls and how misbehaved she was. Even "wild" and raised amongst "beasts".

Once, King Laenar and King of Midland met, and the latter joked halfways as he told Laenar that, if men raped his daughter, she would never try to get laid again. King Laenar answered by saying if his men ever came to hurt his child, he'd feed his to Farnel. Since then, all the King of Midland did, was to diss out King Laenar for being a bad monarch.

At 19-20, Princess Maera met Guts the Mercenary and member of Team Hawks due to a mission granted by Griffith of obtaining the favour of the House of the Dragon. Which meant bringing dragons into the Hawks team. Due to an underlying cold war between Midland and Yis, Maera got betrothed to Lance, a proud prince of the North who swore his devotion to the West if he can marry Princess Maera and bring Dragons into his army as well. As duty wants, Laenar accepted the match and promised his daughter to the Prince. Although, behind doors, Guts and Maera fell for one another slowly and had an ongoing relationship nobody knew off except Ramel.

War came and Yis, Balden and Midland, whom alliance with Randel was a certainity, fought against Balden and Yis. The Dragons won over the army and numerous loss were noticed. After the War, Guts and Maera had to part ways, but what Maera hid to Guts to not keep him to close to her and disrespect her father, was that she was pregnant. A month far. The Princess Maera then announced her pregnancy to the rest of the world, claiming it was Lance's child. While, of course... It wasn't.

6 years later, Maera is the mother of Lanael II of his name, also called Nael for short. A bastard, although claimed no such by his own grandfather and pretended "father". King Laenar was close to a passing, and it was the moment Guts came back to see Maera and asks for her help with Casca's condition. He met then the boy, proceeding to ask Maera if she finally came to love his father. The latter answered that "yes, I really do love him. He was a brilliant knight for me." Guts then claimes he can't be his father, he didn't have the life for that. Nor the attitude. To which Maera never asked him to be. By saying so, she confirms Lanael is indeed Guts's son.

Shortly after her father's passing and coronation, Queen Maera Laeliare Ist of her Name, goes into research for a remedy to help Casca's condition. But seems to be blocked at the early stage of doing so, because of the curse put on her and Guts. Casca would eventually confront the Dragon Queen as she went jealous of her bond with guts and the relationship they had once shared. Including their son in the discussion. Maera then says past is past, and that, although she still loves Guts with all her heart : she would never ever keep him like a prisoner, just for the sake of being in love with him. Which Casca respects, at it reminds her how Griffith used to act towards Guts about possessivity and psychopathy. A few weeks after, Apostles attacks the Blacksword Team with Griffith on the lands of Midland. Unfortunately, Maera got wounded by one of the demons, while the one to finish her off was Griffith. The last thing the Queen saw and heard, was Guts telling her to stay awake and to not let it go. That she had their boy to raise. Whilst she got to ask Ramel to protect her boy. Queen Maera's body then got burnt as the tradition wants by her Dragon, and her boy had been put to safety at Dragonspit within all the dragons.
