History
Date of Birth: July 30th, 1974
Home: Little Bean Area, Missouri, United States
Family: Linus and Unna Koll (parents); Gunnar (older brother)
Chrysalis: Preordainment (grew up in rural home near a forest, father a Green Beret and Vietnam vet, mother a Sidhe; she and her brother were always close, and explored the forest together, always willing to talk and listen to nature; they were home-schooled at first but eventually matriculated into high school; Gunnar adapted well, brought right onto the football team, but even Saga’s prettiness did not avail her, and she was bullied until she and Gunnar both flared-up into Chrysalis and beat the poor bullies into near-comas), 1985
Mentor: Baroness Unna Koll ni Aesin
The Test: Trial by Knowledge (her mother pulled them both from school and oversaw both their initial educations as fae, teaching them of the history of the Kithain and the Escheat and the expectations of the Aesin—for yes, she had inexplicably arrived from Arcadia during the First Resurgence when no other Aesin could; Unna’s duties often took her away from home; “Uncle” Martin Anderson, their dad’s war-buddy and Troll Kin, helped educate Gunnar further, while Unna took Saga under wing more closely)
Comrades: Gunnar Koll, Martin Anderson, Jarvis Hartman, Blake Colbert, Jason Colbert, Joel Uther, Elgar Kosman, Connor Erc
Key Event #1: War (her mother didn’t haul Saga off with her for fun or mother-daughter bonding, but to ensure Saga’s knightly training was put to the baroness’s extensive use as an enforcer for claims she made especially up in the Chicago area, seizing control of Trods [ley lines] and vying for rights to an important freehold [nexus] that the Prodigal undead-sorcerers once held and lost after the Prince Lodin incident, so she battled numerous fae and even Prodigals for her mother, including Nunnehi--whom, at her mother's direction, she slew with cold iron)
Key Event #2: Personal Tragedy (Unna’s jockeying for power and prestige backfired—she and Saga fell into a trap that rivals among House Ailil left, pitting them against Prodigals [a vampire and her ghouls] armed with cold iron knives; their focus on disarming the ghouls of the cold iron was successful but overextending, and the vampire struck Unna down with a [thankfully just steel] katana; Saga flared up with Dragon’s Ire and defeated or frightened away the rest of their enemies, then wept over her mother who slipped away)
Transition: Loss of Companions (no longer bound to their dead mother, Saga returned to Missouri and sought out the rest of her family, learning then her brother had carved out a name for himself in his own right, and so she swore fealty to the local Unseelie baroness while joining her brother at Red Ring, sharing and cultivating each other’s ambitions)
Remembrance
Magnitude: Saga’s memory reaches back through the Interregnum.
Details: She can recall details to her long life in the heart of Arcadia, though far was it from blissful—as Aesin, she often found herself on the front lines of war against various dark forces and monsters, and can recall some of those battles with perturbed clarity even today.
Chimera

Level: 4
Appearance: A powerful Viking-styled battle axe with a haft of solid oak, seemingly blackened by fire, while the wide and sharp blade crafted from the finest of steels and engraved with a single rune representing her family bloodline.

Effects: Those she strikes with this axe take additional damage if already affected by any Kryos cantrip, even a mere chill.
Activation: The weapon is chimerical. To take advantage of a Wyrded Kryos effect on a target, the weapon must be also be Wyrded.
Sidhe Plate

Whatever It Takes
Saga is a powerful noblewoman and a dark knight of repute--ill repute in some circles. Her sins will come back to haunt her.
Likelihood of Corruption
Average.
She may be hell-bent on doing whatever it takes to win, but she also has a solid fraternity to help her keep her feet on the ground.
