Introduction

At Vika's first post-college job interview, one question was "Do you go to Pennsic?" and her answer was, "what's a Pennsic?". Now look at her.

Persona

Born to a goldsmith at the court of Karel IV in Prague; became a seamstress to the court as well, and thus traveled in Karel's train on his historic visit to Paris in 1377. When the Emperor left, Vika stayed in France to expand her needle skills under the tutelage of Mistress Muriel de Chimay.

Sometimes, however, she can be found in 16th century Florence.
