Cressida Autumsnow

Cressida Autumsnow is the caring mother of Jaeden Autumsnow. At a young age, Cressida was raised to treat everyone with respect and to not let anyone down. Secretly for some time, Cressida taught herself how to skillfully fight with spears and swords, even going as far as spinning in the air with them.

Background
Cressida grew up in a respectful family and being the second child of her parents. Her father taught her to be respectful and kind to those who talk to her and treat them with the upmost respect.

Around the age of sixteen, Cressida trained herself to use swords and spears and became one of the most skillful spearman in her kingdom, even entering contest and can even cause herself to spin briefly in the sky.

Many years later, she married Otessus Autumsnow and become Cressida Autumsnow. After marriage, she begged her husband for a child, but he left for nearly a year and returned with a huge secret. They conceived a child days later, which happened to be Jaeden. Two months later, a man showed up at their home with a baby girl for Otessus, and he was shocked, but none more than Cressida. Not long after, she made Otessus and his baby girl leave and gave birth on her own.

When giving birth to Jaeden, she noticed something off with his feet and sworn not to tell anyone about it and it would be their little secret.

When Jaeden grew up, Cressida knew he was destined to be a highborn lord, and respected his beliefs. When the war broke out, years later, Cressida persuaded Jaeden to go find his father in research on a new and mysterious creature in Ravenhorn. Jaeden accepted and set sail to Ravenhorn in search of Otessus.
