Description: A woman of a pale complexion, she tends to wear a grey poncho over her likewise colored trousers and shirt. Her moppish brown hair is in a traditional bowl cut. Her eyes are amber.

Personality: She is quiet and reserved most of the time, but warms up to people very quickly. Around friends she is liable to tell dirty jokes and enjoy herself. Her respect, as difficult as one would find it to earn, is unwavering; those who more than prove themselves to her, a bar set well above any reasonable standard, she tolerates in varying degrees. Though less modest and more hasty in her reactions to snap at those who irritate her, Tordrid is combative with any and all who dare try her patience in the slightest.

History: Her father raised her in a mountain cabin. When she was little, her rather wealthy family often ventured across the forest to a summer home near a large cave. She would wander through that large cave and adventure through it for days. One day while adventuring a terrible storm took place and she was stranded inside. Her family spent the next few days looking for her, and could only assume she was dead when it came time to leave. The family never returned to the forest due to the painful memories there. Tordrid took refuge in the large cave and found the beat up hand crossbow and armor she uses now. She was betrayed by a partner and left for dead, teaching her a humbling lesson in trusting others.
