Oberyn Martell
Game of Thrones | Character
Prince Oberyn Nymeros Martell, nicknamed the Red Viper, is a fictional character in the A Song of Ice and Fire series of epic fantasy novels by American author George R. R. Martin and its television adaptation, Game of Thrones, where he is portrayed by Chilean-American actor Pedro Pascal.
Introduced in A Storm of Swords, Oberyn was the younger brother of Doran Martell from the desert kingdom of Dorne. Unlike his sickly and pensive brother, Oberyn was notorious for both his dangerous and unpredictable nature and his affinity for poisons, for which he earned his nickname, as well as for his fighting skills, passionate temper, and sexual appetites. He is subsequently sporadically mentioned in A Feast for Crows and A Dance with Dragons. Since his brother is sickly, he travels to King's Landing in order to claim the Dornish seat on the small council, as well as to seek vengeance for his sister Elia Martell's death at the hands of Ser Gregor Clegane, whom he suspects acted directly on orders from Tywin Lannister.
