**Dróttning** (/trɔhtniŋk/) is of a near extinct subspecies of Merling known as a Trilobite Selkie. This subspecies is nearly extinct because she is the only known survivor of an event that would see many of the same species lose their lives. She is only a survivor because she stood on the side of the opposition and saw their end personally. It is rare to encounter Drott these days as she spends most her days in deep water, sinking passing ships and hunting sea-born monarchs for sport. Drott is not currently associated with any faction.

## Appearance

Dróttning appears as a slightly shorter than average woman with gray tinted skin, four sets of red and unblinking eyes, and sea tossed white hair. Every point of exposed skin on her body is clad in black plates of natural armor. These piece can be removed, reattached, or completely regrown given time. The only piece of armor she wears that isn't her own natural platemail, is a golden helmet she found sunken to the depths off a traveling ship. Modified to fit her head spikes out of.

It is rare to see her without her full platemail but she will shed her tail plates when stepping on land. When she does shed it all, the clothes beneath the armor reveal various cloth wrappings. Finely dyed indigo cloths being the main feature as it drapes every edge of her body.

## Personality

Dróttning is a powerful and dangerously bored individual. She craves the peace after violence but has fought for so many years of her life that she can't find that peace within anymore. A part of her is always going to be angry under the surface. A rubber band, stretched thin and waiting to snap at any moment- held still only by firm hands. But she can let go of it at any moment. Often leading to at least one or two sunken vessels before she has a chance to pull it back into place.

Drott is tired but snarky and amused by people with their little problems (holding the energy of a beast playing with its food). She gets called out of the depths often by people hearing of her exploits, thinking they could control her to do their bidding. She'll let them think that as long as it benefits her. Then destroy them in the same breath that she destroys the one they called her for. In that sense, she's cunning and manages to charm despite her reputation.

    "Friends" or Allies of Drott will experience a different side of her. Surrounded only by allies, she is often colder, more calculated. These are people that know her reputation, and she knows she can't fool. So she doesn't bother to. Though her sarcasm will still come out. And, if the ally manages to show doubt for a second, she will take that. She'll lay on the charm and manipulate goals to work better in her favor.

## History

Dróttning has been on this world for many moons, dormant. She has witnessed first-hand numerous nations fall at the hands fear and anger. She... has *fell* numerous nations by her own hand. Her name, for the people of the sea, has become synonymous with war. When a nation is on the brink of civil war, it's as if she can smell it. Like blood in the water to a shark, she arrives moments before the conflict erupts. Though usually she has never lingered after the war, she is... intrigued by this place. And, *maybe*, she could use a vacation.

## Key Items

### Tridents

"**Fá**" and "**Brjóta**" are Drott's two primary weapons. These two tridents have their individual named carved into them and their names double as their purpose. "Fá" being a Riptide III trident bringing her towards you and meaning "to bring" in Old Norse. "Brjóta" being a Channeling, Impaling V, Loyalty III trident built for attack and meaning "to break" in Old Norse.

## Trivia

* Dróttning means "Queen" in Old Norse.
* Drott's initial design was drastically different then the design of today. This was helped by a switch from trying to interpret her physical armor through minecraft skin alone to through transmogrified items in the game alone.
* Drott is canonized to have a siren-like singing capability but I will never interpret this in game. Mostly because my mic never detects when I'm singing and I also do not believe I could do angelic tones justice.
* Drott is my first female character on the server and, yes, she's a milf with one canonical child.
* Drott has been married four times and divorced/widowed just as many. Two husbands, two wives.
