Them cutting the one character from lore that is actually black, rides a dragon and outlives most of the Targaryens of her time is almost comical.
-
If Ryan cuts Nettles, I will make memes comparing him to DnD and I will not feel bad about it.
-
I think removing nettles is a huge mistake. She is a great example of how the stereotypical targeryians aren't the only ones with the potential for dragon riding. I think her being the daughter of a dragonseed or something would be amazing.
-
I don't want to believe it but Laenas line "there is more than one way to claim a dragon" to raena in s1e5 or 6 sends like it might come back around and definitely gave me sheepsteeler vibes the first time I heard it
-
If Nettles gets cut I will be quite sad but if Daeron is cut, I'll be fuming mad.
-
If they cut Nettles ..... it's just like D&D going forward....
-
One of the insults hurled at Rhaenyra is that she is "Maegor with teats." The White Worm whispering in her ear that Daemon is unfaithful then mirrors Tyanna of the Tower (another foreign-born paramour) doing the same with Maegor. Jealousy seems to be one of the motivating factors for both Mysaria and Tyanna to whisper these rumors. We lose out on all that pettiness, spite, jealousy and backstabbery if they cut Nettles and replace her with Daemon's own daughter. Then it just becomes dragon roadtrip with Dad.

1:55 🙌🏾 thanks for the shout-out 🙌🏾 🐉
-
This reminds me of Dorne and Arrianne all over again. Waiting for her casting and it never comes.
-
Rhaena and Nettles have way different personalities
-
I dont see how you can understand the full story of FAB and not have her. I totally agree she is a crucial person and is also a BIG part of several main character's storylines. I'll keep this spoiler free but suffice to say, not having her is like leaving JonCon or someone out. I guess they could roll her into a generic "dragonseed" character but why would they let themselves down like that. She's too good a character
-
There's no way Rhaenrya would turn on Rhaena like the other DragonSeeds, order her death, and cause her to flee. Rhaena is family, not Dragonseed. Rhaena can't take Nettle's place because it'd cause huge plot holes.
-
I found her! She did a video 2 weeks ago with some guy named David
-
Maesters be like: "the neighborhood is getting too.. Diverse if you know what we're saying."
-
I hope they keep her in. She literally my favorite. Im hoping they just use season 2 as an introduction to her to get to be a possible favorite for the audience and gaining sheep stealer trust throught season two until the last episode maybe.
-
I need nettles. I'll be devastated if she is cut.
-
There's talk that she's been cut completely, and that Rhaena will claim Sheepstealer after following the dragon across the Vale.
-
Valyrians being shepherds and binding dragons by spells is an amazing theory. That would explain Nettles.
-
Cutting out Nettles and giving her story to Rhaena would be stupid. I hope the rumor is false.
-
As someone who is a writer, it must be frustrating to see any character get cut in any adaptation. But cutting an actual legit important character is a whole other level of terrible. D & D did it in GoT & it screwed up the whole Dorne plot the last few seasons. & Messed up some of Bran & Dany's arcs. Doing it in HotD would be even worse.
