Ancient Rome - Third Samnite War 298 bce

A regal woman in her late 30s with flowing black hair streaked with silver. She has piercing green eyes that seem to see beyond the physical world. Dressed in a deep green robe adorned with symbols of the Samnite gods, she wears a necklace with a bronze medallion etched with sacred runes. Her presence exudes calm and authority.

Wise and empathetic, Livonia is a calming force in times of fear and uncertainty. She speaks with a deliberate and soothing tone, carefully choosing her words to inspire confidence. Beneath her serene exterior, she is fiercely protective of her people and their traditions, refusing to allow Roman culture to eclipse Samnite spirituality.

Raised in a family of respected Samnite priests, Livonia was recognized early for her ability to interpret omens and her connection to the gods. Chosen as the High Priestess of Beneventum’s sacred grove, she leads rituals and ceremonies that honor the deities and strengthen the community’s spiritual resolve, especially during the Samnite Wars.
