Personal history
When her unit of archers were outflanked and being charged down by a line of Ihmisii cavalry, she is said to have held firm, unstrung her bow, and used it as a makeshift spear. According to legend, her heart was pierced by an Ihmisii lance as she stared down the advance, but instead of dying her body was possessed by Banner Bearer, and she unhorsed her foe. This display of unflinching courage rallied her forces who were able to bog down the Ihmisii cavalry enough to tear them from their mounts, ultimately winning the battle. The ensuing slaughter, and the Wound in Reality caused by the manifestation of a God in this manner, is believed to have created the Battlefield of the Bloody Gate.
