tab What Best Describes Your Frame?|Medium
tab What Were You?| Shinobi/Mercenary
tab How Experienced Were You At It?| Vidar had a natural talent for being a mercenary or shinobi. In spite of his young age he was chosen for some minor missions and was never placed in a major combat role. He has impromptu led small squads before but no official ranks has been bestowed upon him.

_________________||Now, Some Details…||
tab What Are You Like?|Vidar prides himself on having a quick, imaginative and strategic mind. Forming strategies on the fly in improvised and compromised positions is his forte. This feeds into his heightened sense of self-confidence, he knows what he can do and that he can do it well he communicates in straight forward fashions sometimes even preferring just to use simple body language to communicate. Vidar is also hardworking and determined if given a task one can expect Vidar to be working into the long hours of the night and his workflow shows signs of being made efficient and streamlined on the fly. Being adaptable is one of Vidar’s prides and as such is open minded to most ideas allows him to gather knowledge and experience from others around him and utilise it for himself if they are applicable.

Vidar hates highly structured environments, rules and processes that exist ‘just because’ are to be disposed of and to be ridiculed. People who are a part of these structures who follow these structures blindly are viewed with disdain. This may be a manifestation of Vidar’s arrogance, fed by his self-confidence he may not recognise that others require these structures while he is capable of working independently of others.

tab What Do You Fear?|
      • Mazeophobia, due to past experiences knowing where I am and where I am going is extremely important to me.
      • Being a Hypocrite, I should strive to be the exemplar of my ideals and not betray them needlessly.
      • Betraying those I consider family, these people have allied themselves with me and I should do my best to reward their alliance.
tab What Strengths Define You?|
      • Those who I call family to rely on where I am weak. These ties are valuable beyond anything and I will uphold them the best I can.
      • My sense of justice in these trying times. We have no right to judge our enemies and should show them compassion where necessary.
      • My adaptability, these times throw anything and everything at you and being able to respond properly to these challenges will consistently win you the day.
tab What Weaknesses Define You?|
      • A lack of humour, while I value friendships dearly my sense of humour is lacking and people could find me a bore to be around.
      • Inexpressive, people find me reserved and withdrawn which makes them hard to gauge my feelings on a matter making it problematic to deal with me.
      • Loner, despite valuing my relationships dearly I am also loathe to risk them and put them in danger preferring to do things myself if almost at my own detriment.

tab What Era(s) Are You From?| The Era of Attention
tab What Have You Experienced?|As a child Vidnar has always been beset with trouble and seemed destined for it from birth. A single child to a single mother Vidnar had no fatherly figure to secure his early years and he fell quickly into mischief and ill-discipline. Vidnar’s mother was no fool, while she was a busy woman she recognised his misbehaving and with some convincing had Vidnar enlisted into a Shinobi academy to give.

Vidnar felt greatly betrayed by this he never met his father but was convinced that he had abandoned him and now in his eyes his mother had sent him away. This is where he met Takano Yukiaki his sensei at the academy, Vidnar did not like anyone at the academy and intended to continue his destructive pattern of behaviour but Takano had other plans. Takano over the next few years disciplined Vidnar not for the Academy’s interest but Vidnar’s. Takano was quick to praise Vidnar any time he did something right and made sure to consistently enforce strict disciplinary measures against bad behaviour. Vidnar learnt quickly the new rules and structure of his new life and began to actually make a few friends at the academy. Vidnar’s grades in nearly every field improved significantly he was no genius nor had he any talent for anything but he was not going to be a failure anymore.

In his later academy years Vidnar was serving mostly as Takano’s personal assistant and was aware enough of news of a new lava village appearing and that the Land of Sound having being granted huge masses of land unexpectedly granted them all new wealth. War however threatened to rear its ugly head as Otogakure becoming a new power house was not a popular idea. On a regular scouting mission with his sensei Vidnar’s squad was ambushed and was horribly burnt by an fire based jutsu they were unable to get treatment in time and the burns left untreated properly left horrific scarring on them all. Vidnar felt as though his chakra never flowed the same since then as if the burns sealed off some chakra points.

Before where he is now Vidnar’s squad was to participate in an joint task force invasion on the Land of Fire to investigate some rumours that the village had survived intact and with a method to protect from the plague. Vidnar’s squad was to play a minor role running logistics for the squads heading this invasion if needed. Vidnar only remembers marching with his squadmates and sensei in a forest before losing sight of them, then only a breath in his left ear… then darkness. Awaking in a time unfamiliar to him Vidnar has a few wishes, what happened in the invasion and what happened to his village? These are answers he must know.

tab What Are You Like?|Svanhild is usually elbows deep in some project or another tirelessly working and optimistic of the outcome whatever it may be. Svanhild is imaginative when in regards to practical things especially when concerning her chosen art, ideas come easily and Svanhild is keen to put them to practice. Svanhild despite being a spontaneous creative individual knows when to prioritse following one train of thought over another. Svanhild is a great companion to have in a crisis as she remains relatively calm as she can usually figure a way out and doesn’t mind getting her hands dirty to accomplish this goal.

Svanhild in despite of all these qualities can be found to be stubborn, she operates mostly in her own mind and is set on what she is going to do based off her own judgement. Svanhild can also be found to be insensitive to others coming from a place of practicality even when trying to meet someone halfway it rarely comes out in a way that satisfies both parties. Svanhild is a very reserved and private person, often getting lost in her own work she will rarely talk about herself but will happily tell someone of her work. Svanhild is easily bored, once one project is finished she is chomping at the bit to move on to the next idea never really stopping to refine anything.

tab What Do You Believe In?| Svanhild believes in Norse Paganism.

tab What Era(s) Are You From?|Era of Madness
tab What Have You Experienced?| Swan didn’t know much of her mother, she was a beautiful maiden from lands far away that at first the frozen fishing village she arrived in almost thought she was some sort of Kami. The villagers didn’t speak much about her arrival to Swan other than that she arrived alone, pregnant and used the small amount of gold she had to sustain herself until she delivered Swan.

The villagers did remark to Swan when she was young about how her mother was from another world, she barely spoke the local language (even that was recently learnt) and her cultural practices were completely alien to them. To Swan her mother taught Swan her language and culture allowing the locals to teach Swan theirs so she fit in.

While growing up Swan would ask questions about where her mother came from and her mother would remark that it was very similar to where they are now and that really the people were the only difference.

Swan grew up with this mixed cultural background in what she would soon learn to be a Village residing on the coast of Shimo No Kumi. Swan was getting plenty of nurturing but soon her nature begun to take over.

One day when Swan was old enough when she was playing through the village she happened upon the blacksmith’s workshop. Until then Swan found the workshop noisy, hot and messy but today it was different each hammer blow the tolling of a beautiful bell, the warmth of the forge and furnace a welcoming embrace of a loving mother and the mess wasn’t a mess but chaos from which creation was derived.

Swan asked to help but was dismissed like any child would be but she persisted. Every day during her free time she would ask and stand outside waiting until the Smithy relented deciding to at least make use of her. Swan begun like any apprentice, swinging the sledge to build up muscle and the develop the correct callouses. Moving on in years to come making smaller pieces like nails and eventually making tools for the village.

This carried on for some years the villagers found it weird that the Smithy had taken on a girl as his apprentice but she made great wares and any concerns they had were dismissed. They however were not ready for what was to come…

...The village was largely unaware of the politics going on in the larger world nobody knew why but the effects of what happened was very prevalent to Swan. A force of multiple different nations struck at Shimo No Kumi with the intent of destroying Shimogakure and sadly like any conflict there were innocents caught in the crossfire.

Swan now a young woman, her mother murdered and the village she called home razed to the ground fled. Despite their involvement in her mother’s death, Swan strode a difficult Path to Kaminari No Kuri but Swan was a resourceful woman.

Swan hid for a while in the countryside waiting for the tensions between the countries to die down before returning to society. This would be hard for any normal person but luckily Swan was a gifted but more importantly skilled person and these skills were rare and in demand. Rather than a village she returned to a larger town and she offered her services as a Smithy Assistant in exchange for food and board at first but then in exchange for money when she was more comfortable.

Swan continued to flourish her craft in this environment, the demands of the town were much more varied than that of a fishing village. Gone were the requests for hooks and axes in their place were intricate specialised tools and decorative features. The Smithy became boastful, bragging to those who would listen about the quality of his wares and the rumour spread that there was a skilled smithy hiding in the town.

A Master Smith from Kumogakure was passing through and heard of the exceptional smith in the town and decided to verify these rumours. The Smithy Swan was assisting continued his braggadocious spiel but the Master saw through him and recognised Swan’s skill and talent offering her an apprenticeship with him making Arms and Armour for the ninja village.

Swan happily accepted and moved to the hidden village to work with the Master Smith and was introduced to the arts of weaponsmithing, armouring and most importantly enchanting. The two former were extensions of here current skills and she took to these easily the latter however was new. Using special materials and imbuing them with chakra for magical effect was a brand new experience but once again her nature shone through with Swan displaying an uncanny skill at it.

The Master Smithy and Swan held a healthy master-apprentice relationship both working to each others strengths and weaknesses and fuelling each other’s innovation. The magical items the two created during this period were some of the greatest the Hidden Cloud had ever seen but like all apprenticeships the student soon became the master.

Swan now in her late 20’s her skills matched her master and an irreconcilable difference drove the two apart. Swan decided to take this opportunity to return to her snowy village back in the Land of Frost. The powers that be had other ideas for Swan especially if she wanted to leave and they had her taken prisoner.

They couldn’t have someone like that making magical items for their rivals so they imprisoned her in a workshop where she could just rot away uselessly or make them the weapons, armour and items they required. Swan chose the latter for the former would’ve driven her mad.

Over the next five years Swan planned her escape, she would craft a ring of teleportation from the scraps of the projects that were given to her. Squirreling away pieces of material needed to form the ring she eventually had what she needed. Working hard through the night under the guise of fulfilling a request in double time she made the ring. Gathering her belongings and once the ring cooled down she took one last look around her prison-c**-workshop. With a breath of anticipation she put on the ring and the world went black...
