Astrid Frostweave is the eldest daughter of House Frostweave, trained in both war and diplomacy and seen as the future of her house. ^{[heralds-b#164]}

Overview

Astrid has shoulder-length ash-grey hair and blue eyes. ^{[heralds-b#168]} She stands as heir to Iceverf, under political pressure through the question of her marriage. ^{[heralds-a#3]} She does not want to marry anyone she does not know, and resists the pressure being put on her. ^{[heralds-b#166]}

Family and succession

According to a corrected family tree, Astrid is the elder daughter of Count Alaric Frostweave and Countess Elara Frostweave, and her brother Lord Cedric Frostweave is the second child and first son. ^{[last-winter#124 · last-winter#125]} Following this same account, she is the current Countess of Iceverf, having succeeded Count Alaric Frostweave and being noted for her diplomatic skill. ^{[last-winter#99 · last-winter#101]} A separate account instead names Countess Freya Frostweave as Iceverf's sitting ruler with Astrid as her heir. ^{[heralds-a#3]}

Needs a decision: Whether Astrid's mother is Countess Elara Frostweave or she is instead Countess Freya Frostweave's daughter, and whether Astrid or Freya currently rules Iceverf.^{[heralds-a#3 · last-winter#99]}

The marriage question

The family's uncle proposes marrying Astrid to the son of the Moonward Duke, arguing it would make House Frostweave a strong ally of Moonward, though it would strain relations between Iceverf and the Regent. ^{[heralds-b#166]} The Regent instead proposes a noble of Altia, the neighboring regency. ^{[heralds-b#166]}
