| Age | Young |
| Race | Man |
|---|---|
| Residence | Where her brothers and sisters go |
| Kinship | Riders of the Riddermark |
| Outward Appearance | Alfy is a young woman, no more than 23 years old. Her skin has been well tanned under the sun as she helped her father in their fields. Freckles dot her young face, and a birthmark graces her upper lip. Chestnut brown hair is kept in no particular way, though the length makes her always push some from her face as it rests on her shoulders. Blue eyes filled with a mixture of curiosity, concern, bravery, and nervousness look out from under a beaten helm. She wears the armor her grandfather wore as he fought for their land of Rohan. It doesn't look to fit her, all full of dings and well worn, but she does her best to look a proper Sheild-Maiden in it. A belt holding a pair of well made axes rests on her waist, along with a set of smaller ones in a pouch. |

Background
Alfrewyn, "Alfy" to friends and kin, grew up in Rohan in the town of Snowbourne. Daughter to a farmer and a minstrel, she led a normal life. Her grandfather also lived with them, a man who was proud to be part of Rohan's best soldiers.
When she was eight, her grandfather was tasked to lead and be part of the guard to a caravan to Bree. Alfy snuck onto the last wagon, not knowing at that time doing so would change her life.
The trip took weeks, through weather and bandits, finally arriving in Bree. Surprisingly, Alfy kept hidden this whole time, until she was found curled up and asleep when the wagon was unloaded.
Living now in Bree with her grandfather, Alfy was told many stories of her land, and taught how to fight by him. Over the years, he grew older and more sickly. He asked Alfy to make that trek back to Rohan in order to blossom into a true Shield-Maiden.
Giving her a horse and what armor he owned, her grandfather kissed her on the cheek and she set out on an adventure of her life.
