Personality

Rosanna in her previous life was a very dour, by the books Ulfen Guard. She took her duty and charges very seriously, not so much as cracking a smile when on the job. Now however, back from her stay in the Graveyard of Souls, Rosanna has found a new vigor to her life, now that she's seemingly been given a second go-around. These days she is warm, caring, and tries to live the best she can while attending to her duties. She shares sagas of bravery to strengthen the wills of her scared companions, or she simply shares a quiet moment with a person in need. All together, Rosanna seemed wholly changed by her Deathly detour.


Appearance

Rosanna Freysdottir bears the powerful physique that the Ulfen people are known for. Powerful muscles from long years of training and battle stretch beneath her pale skin. Her flaxen blonde hair is cut in the very typical undercut, with the rest of it's length held up in either a bun or a series of intricate braids. Rosanna's blue eyes are sharp, though nowadays constantly set in deep dark sockets, likened to a person with little sleep. Her attire is foreign to the lands of Geb, just as they were foreign in the halls of Taldor. Long tunics belted at the waist, whose hems and collars are marked by intricate piping depicting Ulfen legends. Well oiled chainmail and steel bracers and boots, all nicked and dented showing their battle-history. Belted at her waist is a sword belt, off which an Ulfen styled Longsword hangs. Likewise, slung over her shoulder with similar leather straps is a huge Ulfen style round shield, made in steel instead of wood. Over the top of it all, Rosanna wears a long fur cloak that she affixes with a pin that bears a shape of a skeletal horses skull.


History

Rosanna Freysdottir comes from a long lineage of Ulfen Warriors who have traveled far from their homes, pledging their services to the Grand Princes of Taldor. Her father was an Ulfen Guard, and so too her expected her to follow in those footsteps as well. From a young age, Rosanna was trained and groomed for potential service to the Primogen Crown, during which she thrived. Rosanna was particularly talented, developing her skills of arms and bardic magics so quickly, that by the age of 16 her father suggested her to be presented to the Commander of the guard for assessment. The Commander was impressed, though he wanted to train her personally, with the promise that on her 18th birthday she would be inducted into their ranks.

The Commander was a man of his word, and from the age of 18 to 30, Rosanna served with distinction and honor. When the time came for her retirement, Rosanna thought what she would do with the gold she was owed. She thought that perhaps she would like to travel the world, like the hero of the Poleiheira, sailing in a ship to wonder and glory. As was tradition for the Ulfen Guard, Rosanna was given a key to the Royal Treasuries and allowed to take as much gold as she could carry. With the chests of gold, she purchased a ship, hired a crew, and said goodbye to the shores of Avistan.

The Ulfen woman's ship and crew sailed southward, past the isle of Absalom, between the straits of Osirion and Qadira, setting course of the 'Impossible Kingdom of Jalmeray'.  Though perhaps fate, or wildly bad luck their ship was caught in a terrible storm which blew them wildly off course. The hurricane battered their ship, pushing it westward into the Gulf of Mechitar. Rosanna and the crew thought that when they saw land it was a good omen, but they were far too distracted by the idea of land that they did not see the sharp reef that threatened to rip their hull apart.

---

Rosanna didn't remember drowning, or the moment when she drifted off into death, but she DID remember waking up looking at an unfamiliar eclipsed moon. Coming to her senses, Rosanna found herself in an endless graveyard, eerily quiet, but supremely well maintained and looked after. She can't say how long she wandered in the silent cobbles, grave markers, and mausoleums either. It was either an eternity or perhaps days. What she is certain of, something that she has trouble forgetting these days, is when she came face to face with The Pale Horse. It had the body of a white stallion, but it's head was detached and levitating where the neck should be, and above it's skull was a crown of flames. It stood and tilted it's head at her, not making a sound. Rosanna was petrified, scared motionless. Then it exhaled a sigh over her. Next thing she knew, she was gone... and something smelled.

---

Back in the land of the living, Rosanna found herself in a stack of corpses in the back of a bouncing wagon. When she stirred, the human woman who was driving the cart screamed.

She was alive. So she thought anyways. The wagon driver offered a seat to her up front, and took her the rest of the way to her original destination, Graydirge. The cart driver explained that this was meant to be a delivery of corpses for Blood Lord, Berline Haldoli, and that perhaps she can explain WHAT Rosanna IS. The cart driver continued to explain that this cart was most certainly filled with normal, run of the mill dead folks, and Rosanna's sudden resurrection was most unusual.

When the cart arrived, Rosanna was ushered into the Blood Lord's manor and presented. Berline Haldoli inspected her, deeming that she was indeed a Mortal, living and breathing as the Quick do... but her essence was that of an Undead. Meaning to say, positive energy, vitality magic would burn her just as it did the dead. On the flipside, negative energy, void magic would be nurturing and healing for her... like that of an Undead. Rosanna was concerned, but she was simply filled with a sudden euphoria... She had been given another try at life, to continue her journey of wonder and discovery like she intended to. Though, stripped naked and with her ship sunk to the bottom of the Gulf of Mechitar, she'd have to earn the means to do it again.

Rosanna shared her history of being a member of the Ulfen Guard with the Blood Lord and asked her to keep her in mind for important work, and that she was willing to serve, if she would be fairly rewarded for such leal service.
