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?

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

FrumiousBandersnatch · 09/12/2013 19:39

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