Dubhesa inghean Uí Uilliam
Persona
Banbharun Dubhesa inghean Uí Uilliam (also called Dubhesa ni Ulliam; she/her) is the daughter of a 13th-century Irish noble from Ulster under Norman rule. Dubhesa's family married her to a Norman lord to cement their political position under the Norman rule of Ireland. It turned out to be a happy alliance however, as Dubhessa and her husband Joffr found common ground in their mutual love of horses and the land. Joffr won Dubhessa over with a splendid wedding gift of a beautiful white palfrey.
Dubhesa lives happily ever after at Kaerbrok raising horses, tending bees, making cider, and hosting weary travellers. Dubhesa especially loves tales of adventures in distant lands and eagerly feasts traveling merchants and nobles.
Whereabouts
Dubhesa currently resides in the Canton of Greyfells, in the Barony of Skraeling Althing.
