name 🞌 Ísríðr Ørlygsdóttir. Ísríðr means “cold peace” and is pronounced roughly ees-reeth. This far from home, she is commonly known as Isrid and rarely uses her surname.
nationality 🞌 Scandinavian. She is indisputably a Northerner, out of her element in the heat and capable of gaining an advantage in the cold. Her personality is befitting of that Norsewomen are known for, and her accent is telling.
age 🞌 Twenty-four years old. She appears roughly her age and behaves too capriciously to declare her childish or wise in nature. Her birthdate may be an elusive thing.
species 🞌 Human. She is not exotic, magical, or especially extraordinary by physical standards. Nonetheless, she is not known to stand down for fear of another more powerful species. The flaws of humanity are very applicable.
sex 🞌 Female. To say that she is one of the fairer sex would not do her justice. While she is undeniably feminine in shape, she is a fierce opponent and a dangerous woman to be on the bad side of. She finds the company of men more agreeable.
height 🞌 Above average. Among women, Ísríðr stands slightly taller than average at 5’7” (171 cm). She is well proportioned, long limbs complemented by a long torso and neck. Her posture is typically remarkable and even militant when the occasion calls for it, emphasizing the full extent of her height.
weight 🞌 Average. At about 130 lbs (59 kg), Ísríðr is fit and solid with lean muscle. Her lower body strength is greater than her upper body strength, and she has a remarkably strong core. Her shape retains an hourglass figure with broad shoulders and hips emphasized by a small waist. Her chest is relatively modest while she carries more weight in her butt and thighs.
eyes 🞌 Blue. Her eyes are large and upturned, deep-set under dense lashes and arched eyebrows. They are sapphire blue in color and exceptionally expressive for better or for worse.
hair 🞌 Blonde. Although it is occasionally styled far more elaborately and braided, the Norsewoman’s hair generally falls in long loose waves over her shoulders and back. It is thick and susceptible to frizz, which Ísríðr often combats by applying a small bit of oil to her hair to keep it tame.
skin 🞌 Pale. Her flesh is a gilded winter, pale and dotted with faint freckles across her cheeks and the bridge of her nose. More seldom seen are various scars marring her skin where past opponents have found purchase. Hale and hearty as she may be, what scars she bears reveal the truth of her vulnerability. She does not seem self-conscious of them.
scent 🞌 Agreeable. Her scent is generally an agreeable one, with notes of river sediment, the sea, leathers, local herbs, oils, and sometimes the various furs that she takes comfort in wearing. For whatever displays of barbarism some might find unease with, Ísríðr may be said to be exceptionally hygienic - though unafraid to dirty her hands at a moment’s notice.
character 🞌 A storm of a Scandinavian, Ísríðr’s mercurial nature takes no soul prisoner once she has been set on a destructive path. In her worst moments, the woman is the epitome of barbarianism, nigh unrecognizable to those who might know her otherwise for she is fiercely loyal and oft thought to be one of the more moralistic of individuals one might meet. Ísríðr might be described to be a good woman. Unfortunately, her compassion is only matched by her arrogance. A moderate amount of patience, once expended, gives way to crude and vengeful violence. Once incited, she is near impossible to calm before she has left some degree of destruction in her wake. Both militant and decisive, she is a highly observant and thoughtful individual, resourceful and tactical in both her day-to-day life and in battle. She is a skilled apothecary, healer, and seamstress with rudimentary competence in farming. Although perhaps initially slow to warm and certainly akin to a monster once angered, Ísríðr is generally a friendly and even playful Norsewoman. She is genuine in her interest in others and enjoys taking part in adventure and lazy idleness alike with good company.
