Dyanna Baratheon: The Tempest

How much does our environment shape who we become? If Dyanna had been born in some placid bucolic landscape, would she have been some mellow, even-tempered creature?

If her home within the fist of the Stormlands, battered with its terrifying autumnal storms, had instead been situated in some tropical setting with softer, kinder waves… would she have lost her peaks and valleys? The highs and lows of temperament that mirrored those great battering swells. Was her strength derived from need, like the thick stone of her tower? Whether it was through nature or nurture, the result was the same.
