Personal history
The eldest child of Jarl Roryr an Koning and Natalia Tsavola, Irina an Koning is notoriously alike to her father in his youth, brave, curt, and ambitious to a fault. Irina lives with a chip on her shoulder due to her being skipped in inheritance in favor of her brother Hakon. As the eldest daughter, Irina was expected to be sent off to live abroad in a diplomatic marriage orchestrated by her father. this, however, did not come to pass and Irina has remained unmarried and unbent to her father's prodding to at least be married domestically. Irina instead took to the seas and began plundering and raiding the Prus coasts in the likeness to her father in his youth. Acting as in her father's role as a raiding Jarl, Irina has become feared abroad for her successes and for the riches she has brought back home from foreign shores.
Irina has developed a rivalry with her younger brother Hakon who she has near effortlessly beaten in martial games the two hold while being bested by him in cards and in flyting, much to his chagrin. Comfortable in her role as her brother's superior, she tried to dissuade him from launching his expedition to Hindsola after word came back that a giant had landed on its shores. Even offering to accompany him to the island, Irina was hurt by his frank refusal to share the glory of his hunt with her. Sitting in the keep of Triermac, Irina waits for word of her brother's success or failure with an eye towards perhaps taking his place and earning herself more acclaim as a giantslayer.

Religious Views
A firm believer in the pantheon of the Iolans, Irina has developed some aspects of her mother's people's beliefs such as wearing the sigil of the holy hammer of Paren which coincides neatly with the belief in the sky god Rymr's own hammer.
Social Aptitude
Boisterous and loudmouthed, Irina an Koning is a shieldmaiden to be feared as her temper can get the best of her while her fiery and fierce demeanor demands respect from any who meet her. This unflinching courage has inspired her fellow raiders to follow her to the depths of the underworld for her and loyalty beyond question.
Speech
Crass and without a care in the world for tact, Irina says things as she sees them. This has gotten her into numerous spats with her father and younger brother Hakon who each disapproves in their own ways. Their concerns don't seem to do a thing in quelling Irina's warrior spirit as only death seems to be able to silence her.
