Personality
Profile: “Mastermind” (INTJ)
Introverted: Enjoys the company of those she calls friends, but dislikes large gatherings of strangers. There are too many unknowns that she cannot anticipate.
Introspective: Inclined to rely on her intuition, lives by the maxim “Know Thyself.”
Tough-Minded: Tries to be objective and dispassionate in dealing with conflicts, however her sense of justice makes it difficult for her to avoid getting angry with wrongdoers or fools and she is easily frustrated.
Judging: Likely to make decisions without spending too much time probing for alternatives. With people, she is prone to forming an opinion about someone quickly and is unlikely to change it; though she has grown to be more open-minded since her time with the Companions.
Known Languages: Tamrielic (Spoken), Tamrielic (Written)
Culture: Traditional Nordic. Respect the ancestors and tradition, learn from the elders. Value honor and gallantry. Deal with problems up front, directly, and never turn your back on family and friends.
Worldview: The world is dark, and to choose light is to be set apart, singled out and alone as an enemy to every shadow. It is the high road. It is the hard road. But it is the right road.
Religious Beliefs: Serves the “One Who Is”, who revealed Himself to her many years ago.
Social:
-While she rarely seeks high offices or leadership, Äne’s dominating personality, no-nonsense attitude, unwavering morals, and outspokenness make her a veritable beacon of “going-somewhere”.
-Her temperament typically affects people in two ways; they either dislike her, seeing a stubborn, arrogant warmonger, or like her immensely, seeing a determined, grounded warrior who will stand up for what she believes in. Respectively, these two viewpoints make someone either bow-up and treat her like an enemy, or open up and trust her unreservedly. Äne is often baffled by this.
- She responds to aggression with aggression, sees retreat as surrender, and has difficulty backing away from a fight.

"Guardian Shadow" - grants it’s wards the ability to make themselves unseen. Those most practiced in the art can remain invisible for about 20 minutes. It is a taxing gift, however, and cannot be exploited more than once in a 24 hour period. Äne is capable of maintaining it for about 7 minutes.
"Father Unknown" - Maria would not discuss Äne's father with her, and though Äne was never ill-treated, she came to understand that she was an illegitimate child, and that her father did not know of her existence.
"Bathorgh" -
The Man Who Cannot Be Hit, was the son of King Mantiarco and Queen Amodetha, heir to the throne of Skyrim in the early years of the 3rd Era. Evidence, likely fraudulent, of an affair between Amodetha and the warchief Thone eventually led to Bathorgh being proclaimed illegitimate, stripped of all titles, and banished from Skyrim. (See “The Wolf Queen, Book II” -
elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Th… ) Äne’s family on her mother’s side has long claimed to be descended from Bathorgh, though no official records exist.
"Wolfsbane Root" - This root is toxic even to non-Lycanthropes, but Lycanthropy intensifies the effect of the venom/poison.
"Scars" - Äne's lycanthropy ensures that only the most severe or pre-beastblood-present injuries remain as scars
