[*][u][b]Appearance[/b][/u]: [url=https://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=1235639]"Wolf Father, give me strength."[/url]
[*][u][b]Personality[/b][/u]: A proud warrior of the Ironblood clan of Ingvarr, who is supremely confident in her combat prowess and ability to survive the harshest conditions.  Usually rather stoic and expressionless, Signy reserves her emotions for two occassions.  The first is, naturally, whilst in battle; it is rather jarring for some to see her become a mad berserker, tearing apart enemies like a wild animal and spilling blood in the name of the Wolf Father.  The second is [i]after[/i] the battle is done, whilst celebrating over copious amounts of mead and ale; she is in fact quite the boisterous reveler once she's drunk, fond of loud chanting and singing as she praises both her faithful allies and fallen enemies.  Another way to briefly break her from her usual stoic act is to mention her horns; Signy is rather sensitive about how small and "pathetic" her horns are, and at the very least will pout and become rather despondent if they are pointed out.  And whilst she'll try not to show it too much, Signy has a weakness for cute things that is rather unbecoming of a proud warrior like herself.
[*][u][b]Brief Backstory[/b][/u]: Living up to a heroic legacy isn't easy, especially when you're part of a culture that prides itself in its martial prowess and aptitude for survival in the harshest conditions and against the most vicious of foes.  Signy's grandfather, Ragnar Orcdoom, is a legend amongst the Ingvarr for not only protecting his lands from orcish raids but for causing all but the most brave and foolhardy to steer clear of the Ingvarr lands altogether, becoming something of a bogeyman amongst the green horde.  As Signy herself puts it, [i]"There aren't many orcs in my homeland.  My grandfather's name was [b]not[/b] an exaggeration."[/i]  And despite his vaunted, legendary status and despite her pathetic, stunted horns, Ragnar always treated Signy kindly, as though she was his most beloved grandchild.  Signy in turn idolized her grandfather, and when he passed his axe onto her on his deathbed she was filled with determination to prove herself worthy of both his legacy and the honour of wielding his weapon.  Still, no matter how much she trained and how many vicious beasts and deadly enemies she slayed, she could never shake off her feelings of inadequacy, that compared to Ragnar she was nothing more than a pathetic weakling with stunted horns.  She still needed to prove herself, and with that in mind once she turned twenty years of age she bid her people farewell to pursue a career as a mercenary down south, hoping to return with tales of legendary exploits fitting for a descendant of Ragnar Orcdoom.
[*][u][b]Equipment[/b][/u]: Signy wields the mighty battleaxe [i]Slayer[/i], an ancestral relic once wielded by her grandfather Ragnar Orcdoom.  Despite not being inherently magical, the amount of orc blood it has shed causes a sense of almost supernatural fear in any orcs who gaze upon it.  In addition, she also carries a non-descript but functional dagger, and wears a suit of mail armour with a breastplate for additional protection.
[*][u][b]Skills[/b][/u]: Subtlety isn't exactly part of Signy's fighting style; rather, her ability to viciously kill just about anything with her axe is both remarkably unsubtle and self-evident.  In battle she is like a whirlwind of death, hacking apart any foe who dares come near her.  Even worse for her enemies, if pushed into a corner Signy has trained herself to be able to enter a berserk state, where she seemingly feels no pain and fights with the strength that surpasses what she is usually capable of.  However, she is only willing to utilize this state if there is no other option, as after she calms down any injuries she sustained will catch up to her; not only this but her seemingly enhanced strength is merely her shutting down the mental blocks that normally prevent people from overexerting themselves and thus no matter what she [i]will[/i] be drained and exhausted at the very least afterwards.  Due to the harsh territory she hails from, Signy is naturally well trained in the arts of survivalism, hunting and tracking.[/list]
