Dacey Glover

Dacey Blackwood is the Lady of Raventree Hall by virtue of her marriage to Lord Olyvar Blackwood. The only daughter of Lord Jon Stark, Dacey spent most of her life in and around Winterfell before her marriage in 408 AC.

Once a bold and adventurous girl, Dacey grew into her role as a lord's lady despite her initial reluctance to marry a southerner. Naturally gregarious, her magnetic presence and keen senses play an important part in her husband's rule over the Blackwood Vale.

Appearance and Character
Brown hair and light skin make Dacey's Stark heritage immediately apparent - but large, bright blue eyes easily distinguish her among blood relatives. Standing at a humble height, Dacey sports a small figure that is decidedly unsuited for fighting. Nevertheless, years of leisurely outdoor exploration and regular exercise have provided her with agile limbs and a persistent constitution.

Always mindful of her appearance, Dacey's aesthetic sensibilities tend toward elegant simplicity. Her hair is seldom worn in elaborate styles, and her fitted gowns are more remarkable for the quality of their fabric than the creativity of their design.

She is further distinguished from her Stark kin by her gregarious spirit and geniality. At social gatherings, she can be clever in conversation and effortlessly entertaining. Her presence is supplemented by a talent for performance: Dacey has a good sense of humor, an ear for music and an exceptional voice for singing.

Despite an often lighthearted demeanor, Dacey is strong in her spiritual convictions and faith in the Old Gods. She is equally committed to her service to House Blackwood, though her work ethic is generally inconsistent and unreliable. She takes pride in her easily apparent virtues, but often fails to identify her shortcomings. Dacey's most selfish impulses are rationalized by a belief in her own goodness, blinding her to the harm her actions might have on others.

Early Life
The second child and only daughter of Lord Jon Stark, Dacey was born in Winterfell in 391 AC. Merely a babe during the hardships of the Great Famine, Dacey's earliest memories of her childhood home were characterized by its emptiness. The men of the North were called to war, and her father led them in the distant south for several years. In his absence, she became closer to her mother and brother, and found paternal guidance in the aging men who remained at Winterfell throughout the war.

Amused by Dacey's childish curiosity, the elders riveted her with tall tales, and in turn taught her the art of storytelling. She relished in her ability to entertain, and soon after discovered her remarkable talent for singing. These early experiences molded Dacey into an outgoing child, a stark contrast to the stoicism that characterized her family.

With a small, delicate figure, she also lacked her family's hardiness - but this did not discourage her adventurous spirit. When she wasn't busy mingling with kinsmen and smallfolk alike, Dacey explored her surroundings with boundless vigor. She chased dogs through the Winter Town, climbed to perilously high places, and roamed the nearby plains. She was particularly fond of forests, and on a few occasions she attempted to wander into the Wolfswood alone - each time distressing her family until she was eventually found and retrieved.
