Astrid was born the year before the serious fighting began so all that she has ever known was that of war and pain, fire and flames. She's the purest of the pure, like those beautiful roses that she loves more than she does her own freedom.

Her father raised her in a small town on the edge of Thedas after her mother died in childbirth, he was a simple man who ran his saloon and didn't have much to do with the major rebellions with the exception of his being the informant. Since his death in a raid almost a year ago, Astrid has assumed his place as the informant to the rebellion at the ripe age of sixteen.

Though Astrid has no magic, she has always marveled at it. Her mother had dabbled in the art of blood magic but Astrid never had the chance to learn since her father strictly forbade it upon her finding her mother's grimore. Other than the ability to ward off the drunks that have become a common factor in her childhood, Astrid really has avoided conflict best she could all her life and can't fight.
