Persona
Morgaine FitzStephen is a Norman lady, born at Stonehenge on 24 May 1170 when her mother went into premature labour. Her alter-ego, Drusilla filia Septimus, is a Romano-Celt who appears whenever the weather gets too hot for Norman garb. Both Morgaine and Drusilla are partial to dragonflies.
