Background Bergmál is the eldest of five sisters. Her father, Swidhun, had travelled a bit in his youth, and found a wife among the folk to the north, west of the river. Sigehild was a strapping woman who seemed destined to bear the sturdy sons needed to prosper at the edge of the great forest. She bore sturdy daughters, instead, but they proved no less capable. Bergmál early showed a talent for hunting at the edge of the forest, and often kept meat on the table.

After the great events of five years ago, life became somewhat easier at the forest's eaves as the shadow withdrew. No longer as necessary at home as she had been, Bergmál went wandering in search of others who could use her skills. She travelled with Brannock, who went in search of lore. Between his plant lore and her hunting, they ate well on their journey. They first passed among the Beornings, her mother's people, and there met Bjarndor. In time, they wended their way through Mirkwood, and on to the Long Lake.

Bergmál is of middling height, and slender. Her clear blue eyes never stop taking in her surroundings. She runs to freckles, and jokes that only half her skin takes after her father’s people. Her hair is red-brown and wavy. When traveling or hunting, she keeps it braided and tucked under her cap of iron and leather.
