TROPES ASSOCIATED WITH Bäahal Targaryen

• All Girls Want Bad Boys: Bäahal fell head over heels for Jaime Lannister who is considered the most hated man in the seven kingdoms.

• Arranged Marriage: Averted. She refuses to marry anyone but Jaime Lannister and rejects all of the suitors she has to meet.

• Beware the Nice Ones: Is gentle and kindhearted, but you do not want to rouse her anger. She’s a very capable fighter on her own.

• Blue Blood: As a Targaryen princess, this is a given. Played with, however: her background is way more impoverished and unstable than that of the average Targaryen. She was raised into slavery and only started to enjoy the “joys” of her position when Daenerys became queen.

• Broken Bird: Bäahal’s backstory fits this trope. It has been misery, pain, and loss at each and every turn. She didn't lose her optimism and kindness.

• Character Tics: Bäahal cries a lot when she's upset or happy. She also tends to storm into one's room when she wants to talk to them. 

• Chekhov's Gift: Her former Master made sure that Bäahal learned how to speak Valyrian.

• Child by Rape: Aerys II raped her mother, an albino slave from Naath. She was sheltered from the truth in her early years but around age 7, she was forced to know the truth.

• Chronic Hero Syndrome: To the frustration of her loved ones. Lampshaded by Tyrion who assessed her actions as of a rescuer who simply will not let others suffer. That was the reason for the siege that nearly cost her life.

• Color-Coded Eyes: Purple eyes are the indicator of Valyrian ancestry

• Dark-Skinned Blonde: She is a black-skinned native of Naath, with white Targaryen hair.

• Fatal Flaw: She is naïve, whether or not she wants to be, she still is naïve and still sees the world through a certain optimistic view. She also is very impulsive, and this could cost her.

• Fish out of Water: It took her a long time to get used to being a princess. She was born and raised into slavery and had never experienced freedom.

• Foreign Ruling Class: She is the princess of the Seven Kingdoms, sister of Daenerys Targaryen, the actual queen of the Seven Kingdoms and she comes from the southern islands.

• Goal in Life: To have a home. To be free. And actually, to marry the love of her life: Jaime.

• Honorary Princess: She's a downplayed example at first, as her family is royalty although they lost their throne in an uprising. However, she truly became a princess when Daenerys became queen.

• Living Legend: The siege she survived truly forged her reputation among common folks. She managed to survive and protect two dozen people.

• Lost My Appetite: Bäahal has a tendency to lose her appetite when dealing with stressful or upsetting situations.

• Lust Object: Unfortunately, many men had lusted after her ever since she came of age. Jaime Lannister even admitted that no sane man could not want to be with her. She had plenty of suitors trying to marry her, once she became princess of the seven Kingdoms.

• Made a Slave: It is explicitly said In-Universe she was born into slavery. She had to set herself free by murdering her master when Daenerys attacked Mereen.

• The McCoy: When she sees someone in pain, she feels compelled to alleviate it, with little regard for practicality or long-term ramifications. Jaime tries to play the role of The Spock to balance her out, but she sometimes is too impulsive to follow his pieces of advice.

• Mystical White Hair: Like her entire family. Still, nothing says mystical like being able to ride dragons!
