True story. The name of Andraste will be familiar to those of you who have played Dragonage. Turns out she was the War Goddess of Boudicca's Icini Tribe.  |

Awesome! Since I haven't fully finished indexing THE DICTIONARY OF MYTHOLOGY, by JA Coleman, all I have ready is the info in DJ3 EPIC OF AERTH, and, DEITIES & DEMIGODS. Most of the deities in the latter work are actually Irish-Celtic: I had thought that we would have to fall back on Nuadha Silverhand, Morrigan, etc. It's much better to have actual English-Celt deities for Albion(Brython)(England). With regards to Boudicca, I do have a book around here, called BOUDICA: DREAMING THE BULL, by Manada Scott. (My last name is Scott, too!) I'll put as much research into this as possible... possibly, Boudica (or her reincarnation) is alive and well on Aerth! Pres  |

Boudicca like Arthur is immortal. They are as much part of Brython as the Oak and the Ash. The dales and the fells, the stout yoeman and Saint George.
