"Well? What are you waiting for? You cannot learn to dance in armor."' 

Physical Appearance

Personality
Penelope is stern and no-nonsense. Her duty is to train Wardens in the art of combat and as such she has no time for fools or slow learners. She truly loves the artistry of combat and is unafraid of applying any and all life experience to the practice of her craft.

History
Penelope was born to a noble Orlesian family. She was educated as a noble lady by her family, including extensive training in dance, but found her true passion in sparring with her brothers. In 9:61 Dragon she decided to follow her calling and hone her skills with the best warriors she could find, the Grey Wardens. Her father was supportive but her mother was not, and has not spoken to her since her decision to leave the life of a noble lady.

When she arrived at Weisshaupt, Penelope found herself isolated. The other Wardens tended to think of her as a snob. Rhita, however, took Penelope under her wing and the two remain fast friends.

In-game
Penelope is currently the Warrior class combat trainer at Weisshaupt Fortress. She has begun to teach Tiberius skills relating to flexibility, dexterity, and movement during battle.

Relationships
Rhita Helmi- One of Penelope's first friends at Weisshaupt Fortress, and still one of her closest friends.
