Personality

Full Name: Magdalena Mchtilde (AKA The Iron Bird)

Description: Age 38. Magda is tall and sturdy with long gracious limbs and fingers. Her hair, when down, flows a good length past her waist and so her hair is most often piled atop her head to shorten it to a more manageable length. Her features are gaunt and and deathly pale but on lookers can be assured that she still bleeds and breaths with all the fierceness her image suggests.

Personality: To know Magda's personality one need not look any farther than her family name which once traced is a neo-representation of the Germanic name Mahthildis meaning "Strength in Battle". Magda in short, is a Tower of Strength. Highly intelligent, she has been breed to uphold the ruthless will of her bloodline. She is not a woman to be taken lightly in any respect and has a developed a reputation for being poignantly direct in word and action yet elusive in feeling. Thus certain individuals of her acquaintance have dubbed her the "Iron Bird".


Competence: A sturdy and capable woman, Magda is used to living on her own in harsh climates so she's more resilient to extreme heat and cold than someone used to more temperate conditions. She's particularly good at subarctic survival since Russia only gets two main seasons and she lives near the mountains. She's also decent at fashioning tools and cooking. She's not a particularly good shot with guns unless its close range. However she is very good with a knife and will not hesitate to engage in hand to hand combat of a most fierce nature when provoked.

Equipment

Useful Gear: An assortment of hair pins she has collected on her travels. An old world metal toothed ivory comb, A personal reserve supply of Russian vodka, a and a WWII Nazi officer's dagger (originally pulled from the back of the former Nazi Officer who used it to slit the throats of Ansgar and two of the Mchtilde children during the Invasion of Poland).

History

Open History: The Mchtilde bloodline is suggested to be very old although there are no records of any legitimate marriages. Magda is the daughter of Mandella Mechtilde who was the only surviving child of Mariele and Ansgar. During the rise of the Third Reich, Mariele and Angar defected briefly to Poland until it was invaded in 1939. Ansgar was killed. It is unclear where Mariele went with her remaining family during the rest of the war but ultimately the family settled in Austria. Magda upon growing old enough left her mother in Austria to explore Europe and Urasia. Among the various places she lived and visited Magda developed a lasting attachment to Russia where she settled semi-permanently.

Back Story: On a particularly cold night Magda was seeing to the animals when, upon returning to the small cottage she shared with her lover Bogdan, she discovered him in bed being straddled by a naked woman. The woman in question was a Succubus posing in the form of Magda to seduce and ultimately kill Bogdan who was her current target of opportunity. Enraged by the prospect of her lover being unfaithful, Magda seized the woman by her long shiny black hair intending to attack her and force her from Bogdan. However when Magda did this she discovered that the woman long endless hair was a living thing in and of itself and was entwined about Bogdans extremities and neck effectively strangling him to death.

Unable to pry the unnatural Hell-Creature from him, Magda retrieved an ax and sought to attack the creature again. By this time Bogdan was dead and the succubus's goal was achieved. Upon gathering the seed of the strangled man the demon finally released his body just as Magda returned. A struggle then ensued and the ax was lost. The struggle continued hand to hand until Magda was able to run the demon through with an heirloom dagger in her possession. Unfortunately the succubus was able to retaliate in its final moments by striking Magda deep and hard across the abdomen with her ferice elongated claws.

Magda survived the injury but lost her unborn child. With both her lover and their child lost to her, Magda was never the same.

Black Magic Spell: Bird Reign-The spell summons large surge of scavenger birds (like crows or ravens) that attack the target, incompasitate it, and then pick it apart.
