Race- Human

Age- 40
Hair color- Honey Blonde
Eye color- Warm brown
Build- well-endowed, medium boned
Height- 5' 5"
Description: Sianowyth is a very attractive woman by most standards. Long, rich golden hair and warm brown eyes, Sian looks much younger than her 40 years. She moves with a dancers grace. Her hands are roughened by hard work. Sian is a voluptous, beautifully proportioned woman, her hard work keeping her fit. She has high cheekbones, a somewhat oval face and almond-shaped, brown eyes with flecks of green and gold, making them lighter brown. She is distant and inhospitable to those she does not know. However any mention of Lothlorien will bring an inexplicable softness to her demeanor.
Her smile is infectious, her eyes direct and captivating. She is actually a gentle person and for those that know her 'melancholy' is the word that best suits her. There is often a faraway look of sorrow in her eyes when she is caught unaware. Often her songs of sorrow drift through the mountain valley at the rising of the moon.... Those few that have heard the songs and/or seen the gowned spirit roaming the mountainside say no living eye can see, no living ear hear without weeping along with the broken-hearted spirit.
Unusual Physical attributes- Sian has a small scar along her jaw and past her ear where it looks as though someone attempted to cut her throat but only got her jaw. It does not detract from her beauty and says much of her ability to heal with minimal scarring.
Physical strength- She possesses only average strength.
Intelligence- Sian is of above average intelligence and has studied healing, higher learning and herb lore in Lothlorien, engineering under Sauroman and animals, healing and herblore with Radagast the Brown.
Talents- Sian is a healer, a gifted artist and musician. She plays a hand held harp of sorts and sings in a clear strong soprano. She has some knowledge of engineering. (She is able to figure out just where to strike a blow most likely to collapse a copse of stones, know just where to place a fulcrum for optimal strength, etc.) Sian is also moderately skilled with the horseman's staff and sword.
Character flaws- Sianowyth is forgetful of minor things, always misplacing things and looking for them! She has a tendency to simply seem to 'turn off' for periods of time when she is concentrating on something, answering questions put to her perhaps 10 to 15 minutes later! Which irritated Sarumon NO end!!!
Apparel- Sian is usually dressed in sturdy dark brown leathers to work with her horses. Wearing a black tunic beneath. She is most often seen in black, as if in mourning. (Although she has some stunning gowns from her days at Lothlorien, she rarely wears them. To do so, brings a very deep melancholy upon her.)

HISTORY of Sianowyth
Born Rohirim, at thirteen she was sent to study in Lothlorien. Here she learned the healing arts and herb lore. It is here she fell in love in her seventeenth year but has kept her love a closely guarded secret, knowing well the elven attitude toward such relations and understanding her own human mortality.
Sian was then sent to study under Sarumon. Although she studied here she was never happy. Fleeing Isengard without notice, she located another who left Isengard, with her friend Gandalf's help. Here, she apprenticed to Radagast the Brown for a time. The elves had revealed to her, she had a gift with animals and 'restoration healing' or 'dispelling darkness'. Sianowyth felt a growing discomfort being around Sarumon, (she LOATHED Grima, a frequent visitor to Isengard). In addition Sian soon feels there are far too many such sorts coming to Isengard and something just feels...'wrong' to her, even though she cannot quite formulate her reasons or give them voice. Sian fled Isengard in secrecy and went in search of Radagast the Brown finally locating him with Gandalf's help. She studied with Radagast for a while, finding his gentle nature more like her own. Finally feeling the growing threat of nameless evil, Sian decided she must try to give Theoden warning in time to prepare the people of Rohan.
Sian returned to warn Theoden and to her complete horror she found none other than, Grima Wormtongue! Grima immediately had Sianowyth denounced and banished from Rohan, knowing the danger she posed. Sian carries a scar along her jaw and past her ear where one of Grima's hirelings tried to make sure she would never be a threat to Grima again. (That hireling was found trampled to death in the King's stables....) Finding no support from her people, she fled with the bitterness in her heart that comes from utter betrayal.
She withdrew to her spectacular but secluded valley in the mountains above the Rohan lands where she has been quietly raising some incredibly strong, reliable, intelligent horses. Radagast and Gandalf are old friends that visit with her now and then. As is Stryder, the Ranger, who has visited with her on several occasions as he wandered the lands, once bargaining a young stallion from her.
Sian rides a mare named Lightblade. Lightblade is cunning, clever and utterly devoted to Sian. Sian has nursed Lightblade through two hard deliveries and one bout of illness. (It is Lightblade's stud colt that Stryder bargained for.) Lightblade is incredibly swift and can be utterly ferocious when anything threatens her or her 'own'.
Sianowyth has protected her privacy by carefully cultivating rumors about herself and her mountian valley. It is rumored the 'Spirit of the Mountain Mist' is protected by fierce creatures and to enter her lands unwelcomed is certain death. Her stare is rumored to turn people to stone! (Sian has carved two stone statues of running people and strategically placed them in the woods beyond her meadow with Gandalf's help.)
