Lady Enid Gwyr is a professional scribe and contract negotiator working with Calix Inundans Co. (LLC). Her current residence is the bright and sunny Shire of the Isles, where she has been playing since 2006. She is also often seen in the company of a certain sailor from the White Star, wandering the Baronies of downtown Caid.
Enid's employable skills include literacy, a fair hand in calligraphy, and pronunciation of Welsh (some fees apply).
Persona
The daughter of traveling merchants, Enid was given into the care of the sisters of St. Mabyn's at a young age. She was raised and educated by the sisters at an abbey on the Gwyr peninsula in Wales. Her parents' letters from abroad gave Enid a strong interest in international business.
As she matured, Enid learned the finer points of contract negotiation, bargaining, and the occasional under-the-table deal. The nuns of St. Mabyn's were determined to provide alms for the impoverished citizens in the countryside around them by, often by any means necessary ("Those orphans ain't gonna feed themselves!" --Mother Superior Gwenhyfir ferch Rhodri), so Enid was trained in the finer points of forgery, double-book-keeping, and charming smiles.
When she came of age in the mid 1400s, she adopted the name of her homeland and left the church, ostensibly on pilgrimage. She crossed the sea, intending to see the world, discover new business ventures, and perhaps reunite with her parents on the trade roads.
On her travels, she met Todde and Mora. Todde quickly realized such a sheltered and delicate maiden would often encounter threats to her virtue on the road (which was his extremely polite way of saying Enid's mouth often outpaced her brain and would surely get her into trouble one day) and began teaching her the art of rapier. Mora tried to teach her the art of feminine comportment and quickly despaired.
Enid's interests include coffee, snark, Italian rapier, socks, sailors, Arthurian legends, foxes, the Mabinogion, and mojitos.
