for her dark and haunting beauty. Marriage proposals
poured in to both the Duchy of Erevan and the Sultanate

Briseis married a Danish king and she lived in this Norse
land for the next thirty years, giving birth to another four
children. During this time she focused her witchcraft on
creating youth spells to stave off the effects of aging and
the inevitable loss of her physical beauty. Briseis outlived
her Danish husband.
In 230 SF Dirk Mctavish was brought back from the

dead by the Hyborian artifact, the legendary Ring of
Ahriman in order to face the Final Conflict. Briseis
returned to the Golden Cliffs of Yavanna in Kradon and
was again married the Cymruan king. Through Briseis'
witchcraft, the couple had another five children.
Briseis "The Orange" was with the Party at the Final

Conflict in 235 SF, when the Stygian forces of Thoth
Amon and his drow allies were defeated and the world
saved.
In the years that followed, Dirk and Briseis focused their

joint efforts on finding a way to avoid dying of old age.
Dirk only had ten years to live when he was brought back
by the Ring of Ahriman. His fate was avoided, however,
when his close friend, Elrond Miltonov, used his
powerful spells to connect or "bond" Dirk's life force to a
planar source of magical energy. Elrond had already
successfully made the bond for himself. But now Dirk
requested that his wife and partner, Briseis, be offered the
same. In 259 SF, Briseis was bonded by Elrond "the
White" and stopped aging. The Unholy Alliance
accomplished the impossible: they had cheated death.
Now, they would live forever and their power would only
grow!
But death doesn't like being cheated. In 273 SF, Elrond

decided that Briseis was not deserving of his gift and he
dispelled it, thereby dooming the witch. The two never
