Freya Vircette

Appearance
Standing before you is a very tall, golden skinned, muscle-bound wild woman.

A sturdy, well used breastplate wraps around her torso, covering her earth toned garb. The footfalls of her rugged, leather boots make no sound as she strides confidently towards you.

As she approaches, you can't help but notice the large, double-bladed axe resting in the straps on her back. Casually slung over her shoulder is her shield; a large, solid oak disk, roughly decorated in mirrored quadrants of forest green and black.

Your eyes linger on the very old, thin scar that stretches from the left corner of her smug smile, nearly to the back of her jaw. Her tightly braided, tawny colored hair forms a feral looking ponytail as it flows down her back. Your gaze finally rests on her sharp, sky blue eyes. They seem to be examining you - much like a hungry predator examining its prey.

Bouncing alongside her is, what appears to be, a small mountain of dark brown fur. A thick, fluffy tail sweeps back and forth as a pair of soft brown eyes beam towards you with curiosity.

History (Summary)
Born in the plane of Ysgard, on the floating island of Lundssen, Freya grew up in the harsh Rodinian culture of competition, perfectionism, and glory-seeking. When they were old enough, Freya, along with her brother and step-sister, were all given the coveted opportunity to join the continuing war efforts to enslave their sister nation of Resia.

The Resians are a race of Earth Genasi who's heartland lays within the ancient mount of Verrottenburg. It is said that the mountain is actually the corpse of a sundered earth titan - an old foe of Kord, The Storm Lord.

Unlike her peers, Freya's experiences during the raids left her questioning whether or not her people were actually the good guys. After many years of learning and questioning her peoples beliefs, she publicly and violently denounces their current way of life. She spends many years living in the forested mountains of her home, sabotaging the Rodinian raiding parties, and freeing as many Resians as she can along the way.

One day, she is given a dream by her patron telling her to leave everything she has ever known and loved, and go to another plane of existence. After many days of protest and refusal, she reluctantly accepts. After arriving in the Material plane, she spends the next six years surviving in the NW region of the Cliffkeep Mountains; during which time she meets Fliesch.

From Fliesch, Freya begins to learn that she shouldn't take herself so seriously. She begins to understand that she must let go of her bitterness, anger, and worry - she must be at rest and trust in the wisdom of Kord. Just as Fliesch trusts in Freya to protect and provide for him. Once she realizes these things, she receives another dream telling her to leave the mountains and to practice what she has learned. After six years of rest, work, and reward in/around Kraghammer, she receives another vision.

In this vision she sees an old foe of hers, Yurlon "The Mountain Breaker", cutting apart the land with a mighty warpick. She learns of Ironfang, and the Ironseat Mountain from the dwarves of Kraghammer, and immediately takes her leave. Before she can make it to the heart of Ironseat, she falls through a portal into the elemental plane of Earth. After two weeks of surviving, she stumbles across a distressed trio of strange elven women, tying herself into the campaign's current events.
