 Since emerging from the hedge in the mid 2000's, the Fairest known as Sigrún Ljósdóttir has made a name for herself as a Summer Fixer. She's been ranging up and down the I-95 corridor from Maine to Miami, putting out hot spots in the hedge from briarwolf nests to hedge ghost hauntings. Her folksy Minnesotan candor coupled with her apparently genuine dedication to the safety and welfare of the various communities she has visited has won her the trust and gratitude of numerous Freeholds. Strangely, she never saw fit to grace any of them for longer than it has taken each Freehold to settle whatever emerging concern they were facing upon her arrival. That changed when she arrived back in Philadelphia in the company of her Motley, Direct Action. They set down roots at last, and have taken to supporting the community here as best they can.

 She is strangely humble for one of her seeming, though there are some who consider this an affectation. Few question the sincerity of her dedication to her court, however. She's stood at the vanguard of battlefields and social movements alike, furthering the defense of her communities both mundane and magical with the sort of fervent consistency which is typically found in martyrs and radicals. While she's known to play as hard as she fights, it's the latter avocation that propels her forward in life. Constantly tempering herself against the shields and blades of the enemies of Lost society, and of the mortals she claims as her charges.

 Since her arrival, she's involved herself in various pivotal events within the freehold. She's made allies of the Rivermen, fought the Kraklin's King Kril in single combat and won ensuring their alliance, defended both Shackamaxon and Old Iron when the roots of the hedge turned its denizens into desperate raiders. She's fought a sea monster with the Stone Pony motley, became a firefighter, and has risen from a Huntress of the Longest Day to her present role of leadership within her court.
