[She was 11/12 - 14 during this show so good for her pre canon up until the second book. She had dark brown almost black hair and has skin the colour of copper. She also has eyes that are somewhat “almond shaped”. She wears 18th century clothing so she’s better for close ups.]

Character: Pocahontas

Actress: Q’orianka Kilcher

Movie: The New World [2005]

[She is 14 during this movie so good for Irri at the end of the first book and in the second book. She is slim but doesn’t have black hair but a relatively dark brown.

Her brother Viserys gifted her with three handmaids. Dany knew they had cost him nothing; Illyrio no doubt had provided the girls. Irri and Jhiqui were copper-skinned Dothraki with black hair and almond-shaped eyes. Doreah a fair-haired, blue-eyed Lyseni girl. “These are no common servants, sweet sister,” her brother told her as they were brought forward one by one. “Illyrio and I selected them personally for you." “Irri will teach you riding, Jhiqui the Dothraki tongue and Doreah will instruct you in the womanly acts of love.” He smiled thinly. “She’s very good, Illyrio and I can both swear to that.” - Daenerys II, AGOT

[myimaginationplain]

I kinda wanna try my hand at making a Daenerys + her handmaids edit, but Dothraki fancasts seem very nonexistent, especially dothraki women

[mxrgaery]

brown people are all the same and therefore interchangeable according to martell stans… which i guess explains why they believe rhaenys (who they fancast as indian) should’ve been in dany's place and become khaleesi instead. indians = mongols. lol

These Martell ... 'fans' (if I am even calling them that) are mostly white people with a token few friends who are PoC who keep emboldening them to be racist toward other PoC in this fandom. They don't deserve to be taken seriously, anon. Not when they love to downplay actual incidents of genocide in ASoIaF to support their anti Targ agenda, write hundreds of metas about how Rhaegar and Dany are both irreedemable white supremacists and rapists who are led around by prophecy, when in reality all these Martell stans looooove Sansa, who in the show was a raging xenophobic bitch and in the books is a sheltered little toddler-brained chit who would shake and cry if she ever was dropped into Dany's storyline and had to interact with actual PoC characters. They also love show!Cersei even when she was responsible for the public degradation and death of their so called Dornish favourites. Inconsistency is the only constant with these racists, who love to say Dany raped Irri, yet unironically ship Cersei with Taena, without ever acknowledging the problematic nature of their relationship. "antis just don't admit how important Taena was to Cersei" -> from one of these cultists. Like I'm about to prioritize an actual white supremacist, deeply misogynistic woman just because she pulls at my heartstrings a couple of times but absolutely did rape a WoC? Lol.

[daenerys-daario]

yoooo your edits are gorgeous!!! thank you for doing all the overlooked dothraki characters!!! do you have plans to do more?

THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!  ♡♡♡

I’m a (very) amateur gifmaker, so your words mean a lot to me!! 💖💖💖

Yeah, I would be doing more gifs. Not just of dothraki but of all the characters in Dany’s storyline. (And hopefully, other asoiaf characters and scenes too).

I kinda wanna match my Irri & Jhiqui with Rakharo/Jhogo/Aggo, hence I’m looking for East Asian and North East Asian fancasts, and I have found some with similar braids/hair ornaments/attire. So, there should be a Irri/Jhiqui/Doreah/Missandei set soon!

Once again, thank you for your lovely message 💌💌 It really means a lot to me!!

[korra-of-the-watertribe]

I keep looking back to your beautiful fancast of the women of color in GoT. The sad thing is that almost every single one of them could have been saved. Like Ellaria, Irri, the Sand Snakes and Jeyne Westerling are all alive in the books, and Missandei didn’t need to die at all. But then I came across Shae. Since I’m really into fix-it fics right now, do you think there was a way for her to survive? I really love her as a character, and I wish she could have been saved.

Thank you for your kind message :)

And I’m not really a fic writer, but here’s a way Shae can survive and still keep the plot intact:

Shae helps Sansa escape the Purple Wedding, but she’s caught before she herself can escape.  She stalls the Lannister guards long enough for Sansa to get away.  

She sells out Tyrion in the trial, hoping that putting the blame all on him will divert attention away from Sansa.  In exchange, the Lannisters let her live.  She doesn’t trust them however, so she calls in a few favors and manages to get on a boat in headed out of King’s Landing, maybe it’s going to Dorne or maybe to Essos.  She finds work for a pretty chill employer, and lives a happy life.

Hi again lol! yess I think Neron fits for Stannis more . I think Vuron or Dhalas fit Victarion. Jaruu pre - Reek Theon. Cameron ( with an eyepatch) Euron. Lussia for Sansa. Redi Almeena for Myrcella. Ruto a Lannister or Harry the Heir. Li fa or Flori for Irri / Jiqui. Honestly if we use them, berserk, aot and Claymore characters we can do a perfect fancast

Yeah, guin saga, berserk, claymore and aot have some strong asoiaf vibes, we can do a lot with those. It's kind of a shame everyone is so focused on live action fancasts (which are amazing, don't get me wrong) bc i think the animated medium would be perfect for asoiaf.

[galatic-swag]

Does anyone have age appropriate (13-16) fancasts for Irri and Jhiqui?

[asongofsilks]

Random fancasting --> The Dothraki: Lesley-Ann Brandt as Irri

“She kissed Irri’s hand where Drogon had bitten it. ‘I’m sorry he hurt you. Dragons are not meant to be locked up in a small ship’s cabin.’

‘Dragons are like horses in this,’ Irri said. ‘And riders, too. The horses scream below, Khaleesi, and kick at the wooden walls. I hear them. And Jhiqui says the old women and the little ones scream too, when you are not here. They do not like this water cart. They do not like the black salt sea.’ ”

Both the Dothraki handmaidens are generally part of the background and scenery, simply adding completion to Dany’s picture. But they have been there from the beginning, two distinct presences, and they have witnessed the Mother of Dragons on her entire journey thus far.

ASOIAF fancasting –> The Dothraki: Zoë Robins as Jhiqui

“ ‘You are too skinny for him,’ Jhiqui was saying. ‘You are almost a boy. Rakharo does not bed with boys. This is known.’ Irri bristled back. ‘It is known that you are almost a cow. Rakharo does not bed with cows.’ ”

Ms Robins matches really nicely with my fancast for Irri, in my quest to provide a face for female characters who are far too easily relegated to the background.
