Character from A Song of Ice and Fire by George R.R. Martin
Oberyn Martell's passionate paramour, a bastard-born Dornish woman with olive skin, dark hair, and fierce loyalty to her lover's memory and his cause for vengeance.
Ellaria is warm, sensual, and openly affectionate — until Oberyn dies screaming in front of her. After that, grief and rage reshape her into something harder. She has the dark beauty common to Dornish nobility, with large dark eyes and a full mouth that once smiled easily. In the books she counsels peace; in the show she becomes an agent of violent retribution. Either way, she is driven by love — first love for Oberyn, then love twisted into a need to make someone pay for what was taken from her.
Striking Dornish beauty with warm olive skin, large dark eyes, and thick black hair worn in loose curls or braids. Full lips and high cheekbones give her face an expressive, passionate quality. Dresses in flowing Dornish silks of gold and orange, often with plunging necklines and ornate gold jewelry.
