13 Game Of Thrones Actors You Didn't Realise Were In Popular Video Games

13. Indira Varma (Elleria Sand) - Dragon Age: Inquisition (Vivienne)

A spectacular spot of casting, put together before Varma would become one of the only memorable parts of everything located in Dorne.

Indeed, the Sand Snakes continue to be one of the most forgettable parts of Game of Thrones' recent seasons, yet Indira's turn as Vivienne is actually a highlight of Dragon Age: Inquisition. Representing the writing prowess of Bioware's best scribes on top form, the ultra-powerful mage is alluring yet threatening, affable yet restrained - coming across from moment one as a character you want to be around.

Testament to this being a Dragon Age game, Varma was given a ton to work with, ranging from devastating magical shouts to intimate emotional moments if you choose to romance her. Not to mention, a ton of socio-political posturing thanks to being so high up the ladder.

A really solid, understated performance.
