Character: Miyaca Snowbird

Miyaca Snowbird is an elven archer of great renown, known to elves and mercenaries alike. Her snow white hair, braided to well past her waist is as well known as her skill. Mercenaries speculate she will only cut her hair when she finds the man she loves. Elves admire such beauty for it shows her patience. She stands tall for an elf, about five and a half foot tall, her bow just as long. Her frost blue eyes are bright and see everything about her. She bares a saber at her hip, which she could use nearly as well as the bow, and her hunting leathers are comfortable and durable.

Miyaca is also a Wolf Clan Warrior. And more precisely she was the only true Wolf Clan Warrior until twenty years previous to the High King's Sword. She has trained this generation of Clan Warriors and they worship her as their queen though she does not seek such attention. She has a charge, which is also her twin brother, Shadizar Snowbird, Mage and Seer.

I had started a story set in between my original stories and the High King's Sword with Miyaca and her brother, along with Noshi and Sebastion (who do guest appearances in my High King's Sword), but I never finished and there they sat until I need a tie-in. I have to admit she is one of those "favorite" children, even being several roleplaying characters and a World of Warcraft character. What is a person to do when you like a character so much? But in the High King's Sword series she is only a blip, just something to tie in a few background points for my main characters.

Your player characters could meet her as a Clan Leader about twenty years before the High King's Sword. They could meet her as a mercenary before then, or even meet her in Varanath after she helps Noshi save the fallen House. She will not, under any circumstances, help Kin or Wizards. During the High King's Sword she is more likely to be found near Qalataqa or near Varanath.
