I am a leader of armies, ruthlessly impaling my enemies, I am powerful, wise, cunning, tactical, physically strong and intimidating. I inspire loyalty.

What is my name?

DD is a Mathilda (means mighty in battle) and she is a fierce, proud, loyal child.

DS is Raphael and is sensitive and musical but physically able.

Apparently Boadicea was a Victorian affectation of a spelling - Boudicca is more accurate.

When did Bodiccea (sp?) become Boudicca by the way?

Do you think those qualities are innate or a product of environment?
