Melena

Dame Duchess Melena (Nesta), of Drandmir, HFS

”Come to the dark side....I have cookies.”

"Does Melena have a last name? Or is she a pop icon like Sting or Prince?" - Squire Orlandu

Biography

Known as "that skinny chick," Melena can be found roaming around events in her skimpy garb, hanging out with....just about anyone. Whether avoiding drama or creating it, she'd rather be on the field kicking ass or chilling by the campfires with her amigos.

Her other character is Nesta. She may or may not be a P. Morley....but we won't talk about that.

History - or How a Girl like That ended up in a Group like This:

Began HFS as a Morconorian when she was dragged out to the now-destroyed Minglewood Bowl on the campus of Baylor University, and discovered she liked hitting people with foam...a lot. After the split between the Shire of Morconor and Drandmir, she decided to stay on with the Drandmirians and soon found herself in office as High Lady...and then High Lady again the reign immediately following. She inspired a rebirth of artistic tendencies, roleplay, as well as fighting in Drandmir.
