The third oldest Sand Snake is Tyene Sand. She is Prince Oberyn’s daughter with a septa and was raised with her cousin Arianne Martell in the Water Gardens. Tyene may occasionally lark as a Septa, but don’t let her fool you. Tyene is a master of poisons, and just as deadly as her sisters.

Hey kids, here’s a little crop wip of my piece for @sibzine ! It’s all about siblings and I picked the Sand Snakes from A Song of Ice and Fire (left to right : Tyene, Sarella, Nymeria and Obara Sand) More news on the project soon !
A critical analysis of Game of Thrones Season 5. Part 3 covers Trope #6: “Weaponized sexuality/nudity = empowerment” and Trope #7: “Badass women aren’t feminine.”
InPart 3 of this essay series, we covered how women with their “feminine skillz” are at a disadvantage in a man’s world, hence why they’re often damsels in distress and need of rescue. However, there exists one fun, sexist way that a woman can exert power with her womanliness: by being a seductress and using her body to manipulate men. You see, this is because women are viewed as sexual objects for men’s benefit, so their sexual autonomy is something that should be feared, especially given its capacity to control men. This is the assumption that feeds into the Madonna-Whore complex as well, a trope I shall be covering in a later section.
Because weaponizing her body is one of the only ways for a woman to gain control, nudity and overt displays of sexuality become her sources of empowerment. And this is something showrunners Benioff and Weiss (D&D) completely buy into, which was especially present in Season 5.
The most obvious example of this trope’s employ is with Tyene, in the now infamous bewb scene. Here, D&D had one of the Sand Snakes poison Bronn, then flash her boobs at him to apparently quicken his heart-rate (because it totally wasn’t elevated from the fight where he got injured), and then after he gave her a compliment, she tossed the antidote at him, rendering the scene completely pointless. This was supposedly an act of empowerment on the part of Tyene: fishing for flattery and using her exposed breasts as a weapon to torture an enemy. Because according to D&D, “badass women” require validation from men about their physical appearance, even if it’s only given by a man facing death.
Sisters,truly,IknowthepoisonFatherused. If his spear so much as broke the Mountain’s skin, Clegane is dead, I do not care how big he was. Doubt your little sister if you like, but never doubt our sire.
Character colour scheme exercises (3/3) - A Song of Ice and Fire
Here are some self-initiated colour scheme drawings, attempting to draw some of the awesome new characters from Dance and Feast that we will be seeing (hopefully) in the next Game of Thrones seasons.
