Rani Dulcinaya the 'Gypcian

http://www.fivedollarmail.blogspot.com/


Literally, "Big-lady Dulcinaya" is the sherengro, or chief of Kumpania Painted Wheel. The oldest Romany primary persona in Atlantia, Dulcy has been around since the days they could fit all the merchants into the barn at Pensic and still have room for dancing.

She is a fortune-teller, primarily reading cards and tea-leaves, and also an authorized fencer.

In her childhood, she was a ward of Lady Bronwyn of House White Phoenix, a household of dubiously-gained wealth, after being rescued from a burning vardo during an attack on her tribe. She has managed to find and reunite the descendants of her scattered kin.
