Biography
Early life
Around the time of burning of Dublin, Aideen lost her family from the chaos and became an orphan, who stole food and cloth to survive in Dublin. Through her perseverance, Aideen made her way by knowing every rumor and business she can hear in all of Dublin's ports and markets. Wanting a piece herself, Aideen became threatening and to make sure the threat was seen as real, torture became a convincing tool in her line of work. Aideen was in contact with many influential people, which caught the Children of Danu's attention. Accepting the cult's invitation, Aideen became even more powerful with Children of Danu's aid.[1]
The cryptomn, The Spider, was discovered when the Viking jarlskona Eivor Varinsdottir killed The Deer and recovered a clue from The Deer's personal effects. The clue was a note detailing The Spider's lack of secrecy as she played drinking games with Dublin's champion. The Spider, however, does follow through exceptionally with the tasks given to her. A note, from the drinking champion, dictated that The Spider's identity is unknown, but that she was no match in contest drinking. The Spider also passes silver underneath Dublin's biggest tree.[2]
Another note from a nearby bench near the tree was found about The Spider. The Spider was part of a nasty business transaction that involved paralysis of a man and how she would be waiting in the markets. The Spider's identity was deduced to be a merchant named Aideen and was found to be at Dublin's marketplace. Aideen was browsing around the market, until she was assassinated by Eivor, who acquired her amber shard and a clue involving another Child of Danu, "The Whisper."[2]
