Raised with brothers and male cousins, Brenda's the typical 'tomboy'. Instead of a husband, she has a broadsword; instead of a dress, she wears a warrior's overcoat; instead of make-up and big hairstyles, she pulls her silver locks back in a rope, and refuses to put plaster on her golden skin; instead of staying home and raising children, she prefers to travel and explore; instead of sewing and knitting, she would rather challenge someone to a duel or play a nice game of archery.
Nope. Brenda is not the average woman. She also speaks her mind, has a hot temper, and a fast tongue. Few enjoy these traits, especially since she's in a type of the medieval ages. This sets her up for interesting plots, and conflicts which try her patients more often than not.
