Winona Noth Villa
Merenwen Aredhel
Elven Ranger
Winnie, older sibling of a pair of elven travelling performers, is wary and sarcastic.  Easy going as a rule, she tolerates the antics of her brother, Darian, only so far, yet if anyone should dare cross him, they will have Winnie to deal with.

Winnie is the acrobat of the troupe, rope walker, sky dancer... and nimble tumbler, while Darry, when not being dressed up by his sister in order to get them cheap accomodations in local brothels, uses his casting powers to dazzle and amaze the crowds.

While entertaining may be the family business, the wilds are Winnie's true passion and when on the road, she shows her skills in keeping the pair fed and safe.  She sacrifices her time in the great outdoors to be with her brother, often hovering over him like a mother hen, at least when he isn't off causing trouble of his own.  When they aren't making life miserable for each other - all in love, of course - they can on occasion be found entertaining crowds with any number of pranks, practical jokes,  and assorted hijinks.

Taking a stop in the metropolis to give themselves some time to chill out, Winnie's existence in Ice Haven has been anything but restful.  She's found herself in any number of life threatening predicaments and has, for the first time in her long and mostly solitary life, managed to make some friends.   One of them, the halfling wizard, Bleau Tenus has become one of her closest and most trusted companions.  A major feat in and of itself considering her previous distaste for all things arcane. 
                                        **************
Other personalities she has had to deal with:
Vita Moonbeam "Ghost" - sadly, Winnie's arrows dealt the killing blow to her while she was in the grasp of another monstrous beast.  Apparently raised and died again... got to keep an eye open for this one.
Vladimir - still undecided on his loyalties, but stay on his good side, if he has one!
Jonas Hawkins - Merchant and dependable companion, easy to get along with, good source of just about anything.  Seems dependable and not likely to backstab a person, like some others.
Balin Erthriat - "One Ear", deceased as well
Veldrin - Too quiet, too unsure of his own potential.
Lord Tommi Bastet-Fineblade - Good leader, very diplomatic and capable. 
Serephina - don't trust her, never will ~ word is she died, don't believe it
Dargrimm Fireblade - he's hiding something, not sure what, escaped from the Watch, expect him to show up causing trouble somewhere
Kilhe Greystone - Persistent little dwarf.  Annoyingly sometimes, nice guy.  Note: His brother, Keal - WAY too unstable, stay away from him!  Finally heard he'd gotten nabbed by ghouls.  Sucky way to go, even for him.
"JACK" - Too many unknowns.
"
Phoenix" and William - Mage raven and his druid minotaur familiar, strange pair, always up to something.
Tireth Lightlaughter - poor kid, has too many problems.
Breeg - Get real!  Need something smashed? He's the one.  Heard he got toasted by some fire lizard, what a shame.
Mark Bellions - STILL owe it to him to find out if he's alive or not.  He showed up finally.  Hell of a chip on his shoulder though.
Blossom - Awesome little halfling, too bad about what happened.
Ali Briam - Impulsive and rash, hope he learned his lesson. Deceased.
Malleus - Another pesky dwarf, sticking his nose in my business, Watch him!
Haven't heard anything about him in a while, suspect he finally ran home
Morgan Beaudelaire - Arrogance manifested.  Likely good to know in a pinch, and certainly don't set him off.  Best to just avoid him
Cinnamon - Dragon blooded, spell caster.  Seems reasonable, but a dragon?
