History
Lynne's father was an older English mercenary captain who, as history and mortality weighed on him, strongly desired a son to raise, train and carry on his legacy. Lynne's mother was a caring but cunning welsh village woman who loved him deeply. The couple would only have one child to survive infancy. Thus it was when Lynne was born her mother introduced her as the boy Lynn, the son they had always wanted. When her father was home, he taught her everything he knew about leadership and warfare. When he was gone, her mother taught her what womanhood and how to hide it. The young Lynn grew up becoming skilled at both.
Lynn joined her father on the battlefield when she turned sixteen. They traveled across Brittan and France fighting side-by-side until his death in 1218. Her natural talent for holding the small band together even under the terrors of a cavalry charge saw her nominated into the leadership of the company without challenge. She’s subsequently lead the troop across the British isles from victory to well-paying victory.
