Persona

Astrid (Her/She) is a 9th-10th century Viking. She has traveled across many lands, currently she hangs her cloak in Carolingia. Her interests cross many realms, she may not have perfected all of her pursuits, but she continues to learn and grow. She dabbles in the art of weaving both in thread and the web. As a member of the Royal Household, she is sometimes seen retaining or accompanying the Royals. Otherwise she is usually accompanied by her husband. Her husband is a warrior that brings her many spoils. She can be easily seen with a depiction of a dragon on her person. On cold nights she is wrapped in her beloved cloak, seeking the warmth of a fire. She befriends all those around her. Her laugh is heard far and wide while listening to the tales of long past. She always has an open ear and open heart for stories of those before her to pass to the next gentle she may meet.

In Case of Court

I would be honored to receive any awards given in Ethereal Court, with an exception regarding peerages. I would prefer Orders to be in person as well.

Please feel welcome to surprise me, I get a funny look and usually happy cry A LOT. I prefer peerage awards to wait until we can gather together in person and can experience that moment with all of my SCA family.
