Female Rjurik, scion (born 543 MR - dead 616 MR)Anneke Sturmdotter built her father's village into a loose confederation of villages and farming thorps. Ranches as far away as 3 days ride turn to Anneke for wisdom and aid in hard times making her the closet thing to a ruler of the Giantdowns. Anneke gathers a tithe from many of the farms and villages to pay for The Watch, and hopes to attract settlers to the Downs as they are slowly civilzed.
Anneke is widowed, and has 3 sons. The eldest is Gunnar Gunnarsen, a fair hunter but somewhat slow man. Next are the twins Sturm Gunnarsen and Sigurd Gunnarsen who are both wastrels with little interest in anything beyond downing mead or ale and boasting of deeds and exploits or seeking riches.
After the death of the firstborn, and the massacre of her villagers at the hands of the Warlock, her heart broke and she died in Sigurd's temple.
