I certainly see where you guys are coming from with her being wishy washy, but she's not even 16 yet. Most of the other characters who are significant figures are years ahead of her physically, and emotionally, let alone mentally. Hell, Jon has had years of experience she has not.

I feel that the constant abuse by her brother, as well as the situations she was forced into, acted as shackles to prevent her true development. Now that she is free of them she is able to blossom into her true figure. A figure which has enormous potential to send ripples across the world, while standing on the knife's edge of success.

Was she changed by the abuse? Certainly, but without it she is now becoming a player in the game, rather than a mere piece. The transition from one to the other is interesting.
I can't say that I am interested in her character because of the dragons though. Don't get me wrong they are interesting, but they are not really related to why I like her character.
