Kattla was found twentyseven years ago on a cold Winterday. They say she was found underneath the starlit sky underneath the star sign of "the big bear". That was all she had heard about her first meeting with the world. She was an orphant and was taken care of some merchants that had travelled far and long through the lands of Eriador and Rhovanion. She did not know her true origin and she were taken care of a couple that was living in Archet. 

She did not have the best conditions since this couple had just lost their home after the great fire in Archet. Ruffians were roaming the woods and there were no safe place to be. 

So after some years, she left Archet and started to work as a maiden on one of the Farms close to Bree and more than once she was called names like: Giant, Troll and big as a Northman.

Kattla did not show it, but she was often sad and did not understand why she looked so much taller and sturdier than her fellow female friends. She often felt alone and could not understand why she felt like an outsider and so different. She remained hidden at the farm she was working at to avoid hurtful words. But when the night approached, she often were outside as she felt in one with the nature. She also had another burden, this power so intense grew deep inside her. A power she did not dare to unleash in freight of what could happen. This made her very concerned and scared, so she kept it tamed and did not speak of it to anyone. She supressed her feelings and continued her usually day-to-day duties at the farm.
