Meriven is the consort of Duke Alfric of Caer Sidi.
Description
[edit | edit source]According to Poul Anderson's description, Meriven has white skin, long fine blue-silver hair, and eyes like blank blue orbs without iris or pupil.
- "Holger was conducted to Alfric's left, with a girl introduced as Meriven on the other side. The impact of her face and figure were such that he scarcely heard the name. Rubber-kneed, he sat down and attempted to make conversation. She responded readily, despite the feebleness of his efforts."
Creative origins
[edit | edit source]Meriven and Alfric were created by novelist Poul Anderson, and brought to D&D by David C. Sutherland III.
