Zephyra is a darker haired lithe builed woman. She has a tender body which may hide how strong she actually is. Though, strenght in body is not always there she has a strong mind and an even stronger tongue to back it up with. The woman has been built be be silent and behave but taught herself to rule and stand just as strong beside her husband. She has a certain warmth inside of her you won't easily see in vikings which makes her a good negotiator towards outside nations. Yet alone with her husband she is a totally different person. She is very loyal and submissive towards him while still holding hate and anger in her heart unable to leave him and ever stuck.

PAST
From a young age Zephyra has been taught and raised to become the perfect wife for some viking warlord. Together with her sisters she was perfected in the arts of seducing her husband and turning his world around into her favor. She was supposed to marry, become pregnant and her husband was supposed to die. This way her father could make sure her child, if it was a son ofcourse, would listen to his every word.
For this reason Zephyra was sold out as a bride to Ragnvald. A viking warhero and son of Falkreaths ruler. It was an honor but pure terror to the young woman. At only 18 years old she met the man that she would have to serve for the rest of her life.
He was a monster and Zephyra was considering killing him even before he would lay his hands on her. But she was forced to stay with him. Trying to find som humanity in the man and when she did find that she began to slowly but surely fell in love with him. Trusting him barely but enough to speak about her fathers plans which resulted in Ragnvald taking over her fathers city to end his sickening way of life.
And now, more than 20 years later Zephyra has given Vald 5 children even if she still truly believes she hates the man she cannot deny her love for him and for their children. Something that torments her every day.
