Yes I am a straight female, but you can't blame me for being blown away everytime by the superior, fierce beauty of the one and only Khaleesi. Man! Daenerys Targaryen has a similar effect on both men and women, and I totally get it. 

However, she is a fictional character, and we all know how the wonderful Emilia Clarke does a brilliant job of portraying the iconic character of the Mother of Dragons. 

But, what if I were to tell you that Khaleesi exists in real life too? Oh yes, she is most certainly real, my friends.

Meet Roberta 'Rory' Pattaro, a student from Italy, who sometimes seeks an escape from her regular life by transforming herself into the iconic silver-haired queen from 'Game of Thrones'.

How did Rory tap into her inner Khaleesi? Well, it all began with a dude who was possibly trying to hit on her with a cheesy pick-up line. 

“I've always been a passionate fan of movies and TV series and I've always dreamed about becoming one of the protagonists of my favourite movies. I discovered this world in 2016 when a boy who followed me on Facebook told me that I'd make a perfect Daenerys. The problem was I'd not even started to watch Game of Thrones,” Rory told LADbible. 

Well, I'll be damned! The resemblance is so eerie and uncanny that I had to go back and look at Emilia and then Rory to spot the difference.

“Because I had blonde hair, people would write 'mother of dragons' underneath my pictures. Eventually, I decided to watch the TV series. Now it is my favourite show and I decided to create my cosplay,” Rory added.

Interestingly, all her costumes are hand-made and she now has a string of supportive followers who wait with bated breath to see her incredible transformations. However, things can get pretty weird sometimes for Rory. 

“I have received a few strange requests though. Just a few days ago a man asked me if he could have my face put onto a t-shirt. Also, recently I was on the way back from Torino Comics [a local convention] and a boy asked me for a picture in the subway elevator. I'd used the subway to get there and really enjoyed seeing everyone's reactions to the 'mother of dragons' just sitting on the underground," Rory said.  

Well, Rory, prepare yourself to have a tidal wave of followers from India now.
