Robins once admitted to feeling a little nervous about taking on the role of Nynaeve. "At first, when I was reading her, I was a little bit intimidated by the prospect of playing her because she's so headstrong and fierce and stubborn," the star told Yahoo in a Dec. 17 interview. "I'm from New Zealand and we're not really known to be like that at all. Sometimes we can be quite passive and agreeable and just nice, which are not bad things. But I was like, at the beginning, 'How could I find that route into playing someone like that?'"
Once Robins really got to know her character, she realised she's actually very similar to Nynaeve. "For Nynaeve, she likes things how they are. She likes to be at home and have things kind of run routine... I think I like that as well, being an actor and having our career so uncertain, and the unknown being something that we have to constantly get used to," Robins explained.
