>One member of the Dornish royal family was murdered 20+ years ago
>Her boyfriend signed up for a trial by combat and got rekt because he was showboating
This can't really be everything that motivates her actions right?
>a woman
>being unreasonable
>b-but that's dumb you guise
jesus why don't you wear a t-shirt that says VIRGIN in big comic sans font already, you fucking child
>>68814642
Literally don't give a fuck about Dorne. I just use the scenes to make a cup of tea
>>68814642
D&D are obviously trying to end that boring ass Dorn stroyline in a hurry.
>>68814642
Welllllllllll in the books Dorne dislikes the Lannister family mostly because of them backing the Baratheon rebellion when they were taking King's Landing...also during the sack of King's Landing the Mountain allegedly killed that chick her boyfriend kept crying about during the trail by combat
>>68814816
>Mountain allegedly killed that chick her boyfriend kept crying about during the trail by combat
Killing his brother and nephew was a good first step on the road to avenging him.
That's more than fucking cersei had going for her.
>>68814693
This very much son.
Women's "motivation" = getting the most alpha guy.
>Lannisters killed: Elia and Oberyn
>Ellaria killed: Doran and Tristan
Technically she's killed just as many Martells as the Lannisters have.
I don't think they want us to be on her side though, right? Shes gonna get annihilated and I can't wait to see how.
>>68814998
FOR DORNE!
>>68814998
Except the Lannisters didn't actually kill Oberyn. They did likely give the order for Elia, but Oberyn was unintentional and not really their fault. Unless you believe Tyrion tricked Oberyn.
I wished D&D at least showed some scenes of distrust the Dornish people had of their leader, sorta like implying shit was about to go down, but instead we see him for 1 minute and he gets rekted. No setup, no payoff
>>68814642
It is, because her motivation was taken from another character, who was plotting against Doran in the books.
Book Ellaria Sand was actually against vengeance and shit and pretty much became a shut-in grieving widow after Oberyn died.
All he had to do was turn the boat around and tell Doran that the obvious bitch poisoned Mrycella. This could have prevented Doran's assasination.
>>68814642
Anon, not just her actions. Remember what she said about how Dorne feels about Doran.
That's everything that motivates everyone in Dorne to let her destroy the Martell bloodline and plunge Dorne into war.
The show is fucking retarded.
I'm sure Ellaria only speaks for the radicals.
>>68815482
But the Radicals are back in Riverrun.
>>68815318
>Dorne
>caring what a bastard woman thinks
They really fucked this up.
At least she never tried to assassinate someone with a whip.
The shittiest coo ever recorded. Dorne a shit & light work for the Lannisters.
Don't draw this out any further.
Inb4 bad pussee and fat chick team up and rule the 7 kingdoms until old age
>>68815676
>caring what a bastard woman thinks
>They really fucked this up.
They are all mongrels and bastards there, it's like GoT America.
>killing your family to seek vengeance for your dead family
Literally what the FUCK were they thinking?
>>68815285
It's not what you know, it's what you can prove
>>68814642
Basically a fuck toy of the month for her whole life
Sugar Daddy gets rekt in fair fight
Gets a hair cut, I'm badass now
It's my way and war
WAR!
murders her sugar daddy's brother who's repeatedly shown her leniency
WAR!
Well, I hope they taught you strategy, tactics, logistics, organization, and diplomatic skills in hooker school
>>68815813
>coo
>>68814998
lannisters didnt kill oberyn, not in any way shape or form
>>68815684
>small enclosed space
>better bring a spear and a whip
>>68816339
except that would be really easy to prove since the poison she uses has already been established to be rare and used by sand snakes
>>68815285
feared for their safety
they turn the boat around, they get slaughtered on the beach
>>68816741
>they turn the boat around, they get slaughtered on the beach
>implying there are more than 10 people in D&D's Dorne
>>68814642
i look at it as if the prince was obama and his son was john kerry. worthless pricks. and this chick is donald trump with boobs and instead of a wall, shes gonna fuck shit up.
>>68817095
I love how they diminished Dorne to the point where its capital city isn't even Sunspear in the opening credits, it's just "Dorne".
13th Warrior didn't get a hackjob this bad.
>>68814693

What does /tv/ mean by this?
>>68814642
It's classic female logic. Most realistic thing on the show.
>>68817184
>showfags
>They'll never know how based Dorran really is
>>68816669
well they know how big a faggot he was. no prob for them even in a small place
>>68817773
No one gets laid on /tv/
And if you think you do, your wrong.
>>68814642
>This can't really be everything that motivates her actions right?
We must avenge House Martell by killing House Martell
DABID WHAT IF HED SNED SNEK KILL DORNE
>>68814642
>we're outraged a foreigner killed a royal family member so we're going to kill the entire royal family for revenge

HISS! :P

>HISS

>male possessive pronoun
Weak men will never rule Dorne again.
If anything they should go HERS!
>>68818261
I can't wait to see with what bullshit writing they come up to unite the houses of Dorne behind some wench who fucked the swanky brother of the king and murdered their rightful king who kept them out of the bloody civil war. Literally who else in Dorne cares about Ellaria besides Oberyn and his bitches let alone risk a war for some shit that happened like 20 years ago.
>>68814693
You're baiting, right?
It's not that she's being unreasonable, she's just being fucking retarded.
>>68816332
Now that I think about it, I really think her motivations are even worse. The whole time we're meant to believe that the snakes and Ellaria are doing what they're doing because they want to avenge Oberyn and Elia first and foremost, but she instead kills off Doran and Trystane and proclaims she's doing it "for Dorne" which was never something Oberyn or Elia expressly wanted/cared about.
Even more lazy writing.
>>68819546
This. Also starting a civil war (or whatever they plan to do) with nothing more to gain from than getting revenge for 3(?) deaths that happened long ago. And who are supposed to be their allies?
Why did they wait 20 years for their revenge? Tywin wold have died of old age by the time they got around to publicly accusing him.
yfw aegon is real and he's been hiding in dorne this whole time and there is in fact a doran master plan and the sneks just ruined it
>>68820197

Anyone able to explain why, when killing Doran, she used Oberyn as an example of someone who defied his rule and essentially shit talked him, when in reality she was blowing his tiny cock?
Biggest tragedy is Siddig is a great actor who didn't get to do shit
why the hell was lyanna even at the tower of joy in the first place? that seems kind of a weird place to keep her. starfall is kind of close to it, so maybe she was staying there and they moved her there for some reason?
>>68819335
Again, entirely realistic
>>68814642
woman are cunty and petty. of course it is.

>D&D finishing up the premiere

What the fuck

>she seizes power in a coup

Bravo
>>68820868
Honestly this is what I was thinking the whole time. SJWs will eat anything like this up, even if it makes no sense
>>68821084
Well it literally is
>>68820868
>empowering
Don't they see where this plot is going? Is it empowering to start a war you can't possibly win? Is it empowering to die entirely in vain and have your country occupied by a foreign power?
>>68814642
DUDE I FUCKED YOUR GRANDMA LMAO
>Doran in the books
>incredibly politically savvy, understands the intrigue of the court
