Personal history
Lív grew up alone with her caring father in Denmark, enjoying a quiet childhood.
At The Unravelling, when she was unveiled, her father fought through his confusion and remained supportive of his little girl. He could finally connect the dots of her mother, whom he had met on a trip doing nature photography, and who had arrived at his door six months later, pregnant and looking for shelter. She had left him again a year after the child was born.
Shortly after the Veil fell, three beautiful white women in light white dresses came to his house. They - like Lív's mother, they said - were swan maidens, and were here to gift Lív her mother's swan skin, and take her into their flock.
Her father had planned for this possibility and agreed to their terms, as long as it was Lív's decision and that he could still see her. She moved with them to the newly revealed Fey Grove Elverhøj on the Danish island of Møn, and later her father followed, moving to a nearby town.
As a Swan Maiden, Lív migrates around the northern countries throughout the year. Her flock has several stops around Denmark, Sweden and Finland during summer, and spends winters in Evergreen Glade.

Personality Characteristics
Motivation
Like many Fey Folk, Swan Maidens are free spirits, unlikely to set goals in life or be ambitious, and Lív is no exception.
While many Swam Maidens are contend in the social circle of their flock, Lív cares much for Alea as well - even occationally spending time with her, away from her flock. Possibly affected by her prolonged time as a changeling before becoming, and the strong bond between them back then.
