				Name: Milyausha (pronounced Mil-yao-SHA)<br><br>Appearance &amp; General Info:<br>Milyausha is a smallish (5'3) young looking (19) fine-boned woman with angular features and dark eyes and hair. Her skin is lightly browned from days spent in the sun and her body is compact, muscular, and well kept. Like most of her people she keeps her hair loose and long, and favors her riding clothes even when not on the move. Her clothes for most times consist of a mismatched set of cloth and leather armor favored by her people, and when riding, a worn-looking cone-shaped leather hood. When not traveling or preparing for combat, she dresses in good quality clothing, though rarely dresses or skirts of any kind, with small touches of bead work. Milyausha also wears a bronze amulet of a bird of some kind around her neck. <br><br>She seems to be a competent warrior, obviously not from the North. Her accent and features indicate she is probably from the south and she fits the general description of the people referred to either as Bulgars or Tatars. She normally carries three weapons, a shortsword of decent quality, a short bow which can be fired from horseback, and a spear which she seems to favor. She sometimes also carries a rectangular shield made from a combination of wood, wicker, and leather.

				Description: Signy is small and pale even by the standards of the northmen.&nbsp; Born prematurely, she wasn't expected to live, and has surprised everyone by reaching adulthood.&nbsp; She is still considered to be far from strong, not quite a proper Viking female, but no one can deny that her prophecies are invariably right, if often not fully understood until too late.&nbsp; Her long, straight hair is a dirty blond, and her alert eyes are a strange, clear greenish blue.<br><br>Personality/History: Her father has never acknowledged her, and may not even realize that he is her father.&nbsp; Her mother, Thordis, earned enough for them to live on as the village weaver; but she died when Signy was just fourteen years old.&nbsp; For a time, the girl earned a living telling fortunes and making charms, skills which she seemed to come by naturally, for no one, least of all her mother, was known to have taught her these things.&nbsp; After a few years, she simply left the village one night, reappearing at the Holdt a few days later.&nbsp; Tales of her prophecies have reached the Holdt, though the girl herself is something of a mystery, and she doesn't seem inclined to encourage close friendships.&nbsp; She has been at the Holdt for about two weeks now, once again keeping herself fed and sheltered through her earnings from her magical skills.<br><br>She always carries her runes, refusing to let anyone else touch them -- and indeed, in her home village, most had a superstitious fear of the runes that kept them quite safe.&nbsp; They are in a linen drawstring bag, made by her mother, and the set of 24 runes itself was made by Signy herself, delicately carved and polished from bone.<br><br>She casts the runes frequently, is generally very quiet thereafter, and only occasionally shares her knowledge with others, at least not without prompting.<br><br><br>Deities revered:&nbsp; Odin, in his role as god of runes and secret knowledge.&nbsp; Also Frigg, a goddess associated with prophecy.

				<strong>Name:</strong> Ádísa<br><strong>Apparent Age:</strong> early 20s<br><strong>Height:</strong> 4'11"<br><strong>Build/Weight:</strong> Slightly emaciated / 90 pounds<br><strong>Hair:</strong> Blonde-ish<br><strong>Eyes:</strong> Blue<br><strong>Complexion:</strong> Ruddy, as her skin is fair and she is been subject to much exposure.<br><strong>Identifying Marks:</strong> Clothing too bulky to display any yet.<br><strong>Clothing:</strong> Rough-sewn hides. Mainly hare and smaller rodents.<br><strong>Visible Weapons/ Items Carried:</strong> Ádísa's main weapon is a crude spear that crests over her own height. It is little more than a sharpened stick with a char hardened tip. Strapped to her waist are a pair of strange devices: along her midback is a reed woven quiver holding several javelin sized spears and to her right is a loosely strapped bit of wood with peg pointing back at itself on one end.<br><br><strong><span class="bbc_u"><br>Mannerisms/Physical Description</span></strong><br>Fate bestowed tallow colored hair salted with the occasional strand of auburn to Ádísa; it could hardly be said that it looked touchable or managed. Often rough sheared by a rock blade, the unruly locks are currently shoulder length, braided and bound back with little more than leather strap.<br><br>Ádísa's frame is wiry. It is obvious that she is underweight, something her rough tailored hides, while bulky and concealing, cannot hide. Standing at almost fifteen hands, Ádísa's visage reveals a marginally bearable woodland life: her skin is sun kissed, her cerulean eyes are surrounded by tiny wrinkles, and her she walks with the gait of a skittish deer. The girl's movements reveal the constant search for an exit when she walks among others and her words come haltingly as one who is unused to speaking.
