Maedbh was a powerful warrior of the Asoborns tribe. [1a]

Appearance

Tall, broad shouldered and naked but for a long cloak and war tattoos. [1a]

History

After defeating the Norsii and Artur of the Teutogens, Sigmar travelled first to the Taleutens and then into the lands of the Asoborns seeking a sword oath from their queen, Freya. [1a] As his convoy of warriors and gifts moved through the grassland, they were suddenly confronted by several hundred female warriors who arose from the land all around them, led by Maedbh. [1b]

She blindfolded Sigmar and Wolfgart and led them to the queen, [1c] taking them back to the warriors once the alliance between the two tribes had been forged. Before they departed she grabbed Wolfgart and pulled him close for a passionate kiss, telling him to return in the summer to fasten hands and make strong children! [1d]

Wolfgart travelled to the land of the Asoborns that very winter and did not return until the spring, bearing a betrothal tattoo to Maedbh. [1e]

Weapons and Eqquipment

She rode a chariot of lacquered black wood and bronze edging drawn by a pair or horses. [1d]
