Freihild
MinorFreihild's slanted blue eyes flicker with ancient ice, her topknot of bone-white hair a banner of Obsidian pride. She carries the quiet ferocity of northern winds, laughing sharp as a blade's edge.
Freihild emerges in Dark Age as a lithe Obsidian skuggi instructor, her pale blue tunic and winged crest tattoos marking her as a skeptical yet devoted leader among Sefi the Quiet's warriors. She bonds with her kin over Karachi cards, jade earrings glinting as she kneels to shelter their flames, embodying the fierce loyalty of her people. Her promising arc culminates in tragedy, felled by Ascomanni arrows and a brutal hook through the jaw, transforming her from a supporting trainer into a poignant symbol of the saga's relentless losses.

She wears a pale blue sleeveless tunic displaying the Alltribe’s winged crest tattooed in black on her shoulders, accented by ghastly jade earrings.
