==Commonly Known==
Anica was a member of Ragnarok for over a year, acting as a de facto leader in the group by virtue of taking on responsibilities and doing things that needed doing. Though she had been drawn to Houston and Ragnarok for protection and their hard-line against loyalists, she didn't share their zeal for hunting criminals outside their city borders: why go looking for trouble? 
Winter 2014: During the Houston Winter Market, Teodor was triggered by proximity to Milada, and his omen (featuring her torturing him) was read by Ragnarok members. Teodor and Brendan disappeared immediately after, and could not be located via Mindfinder. Elkan chose to blame Milada, and planned to summarily execute her in an attempt to stir up Freehold trouble and strike against Ash Forrest. Anica took a "moderate" position that Milada should be temporarily maimed and interrogated. These attempts failed, thanks to Malachi and Hunter smuggling Milada out of town. 
Spring 2014: After the Winter Market, King Demetri maneuvered Anica's boyfriend Wasim into a polite social hostage position in an attempt to protect himself from Ragnarok. He then assigned Anica to go to DFW and make peace with Milada Heartstrong. Anica did so, but revealed (after an intervention by Melanie Ackers) that her boyfriend was being held by Demetri. Milada organized a group to go to Houston to "invite" Wasim to the party, and once they were both out of Houston, Anica refused to return. 
==Uncommonly Known==
Anica and Wasim were members of a small Freehold in Arkansas, no more than ~20 members, and with a small tightly-knit Autumn court of 4 members. The Autumn King had worked as a torturer in his durance, and Wasim had been one of his victims. When Wasim was triggered during his coronation, the king and his motley found their new toy hilarious: they tormented him for the entire season, until Wasim tried to commit suicide-by-Arcadia. 
Anica pulled Wasim out of Arcadia when he went back a second time. (Note that "second rescues" are almost unheard of in Changeling culture.) The Autumn court picked up their tactics right where they left off, triggering Wasim all over again. In a furious rage, Anica slaughtered the entire court in a single night, then took Wasim with her on the run.
