Tyene Sand is the bastard daughter of Prince Oberyn Martell and a septa. She is one of the infamous Sand Snakes.
Contents
Character and Appearance
Tyene is regarded as treacherous, while maintaining a sweet and pious persona. Areo Hotah thinks Tyene looks as sweet as summer strawberries. She is fair, with golden hair, blue eyes and an almost otherworldly innocence about her.[1] She has soft pale hands but they are as deadly as Obara's callused ones, if not more so. She shares her father's knowledge of poisons and it is her chosen weapon.
History
When Tyene was in the cradle her mother read to her from the Seven-Pointed Star. Princess Arianne Martell once crossed the Mander with three of the Sand Snakes to visit Tyene's mother.[2]
Tyene and Arianne once fled Sunspear to try to marry Arianne to Willas Tyrell at Highgarden, but they were caught by Tyene's father, Oberyn Martell, at Vaith.[3]

Quotes about Tyene
She rose as they entered, dressed in a clinging gown of pale blue samite with sleeves of Myrish lace that made her look as innocent as the Maid herself. In one hand was a piece of embroidery she had been working on, in the other a pair of golden needles. Her hair was gold as well, and her eyes were deep blue pools . . . and yet somehow they reminded the captain of her father's eyes. [5]
