Books

Sarella Sand is one of the famous Sand Snakes, the bastard children of Oberyn Martell. Her mother was a Summer Islands trader. She is nearly 20 years old, and has a reputation for insatiable curiosity and "pushing in where she didn’t belong".[1]

Recent Events

A Feast for Crows

When Doran Martell orders Areo Hotah to take the Sand Snakes into captivity, Sarella is outside of Dorne. Doran says that he prays she will show more sense than her sisters, and tells Areo to "leave her to her game".[2]

Theories

It is widely believed that Sarella Sand is in disguise in Oldtown as the novice Alleras, studying for a maester's chain. The name Alleras is Sarella backwards, and Alleras ("the Sphinx") bears a resemblance to Oberyn Martell and having a Dornishman father and Summer Islands trader mother; furthermore, disguising herself as a man to learn the secrets of the maesters would be in keeping with what is known of Sarella's character.[3]
