*History:
The daughter of Hilda Ahlstrom and Morten Norling, Astrid does not remember her father who was lost at sea when she was still an infant. Her mother died of a fever when she was seven years old and subsequently she and her elder brother, Arvid, were raised by Ingrid Eld.

Following the events of The Sword of Valor, Arvid and Astrid joined Ingrid in her exile and journeyed far from the lands they once called home. This led to Arvid and Astrid stumbling first upon the Castle of Catara in Amar'a and then, whilst attempting to break the curse and free themselves from the castle, into a tapestry formerly owned by Auriana that trapped them inside it. They were eventually rescued when Brianna Tel'Quessir commanded the tapestry to release its captives in an attempt to free Leuthil Celeblasse who had also been trapped within it. Brother and sister were then invited to stay in Ingraleis.

Astrid returned to Castle Catara with Leuthil, Arvid and others after receiving a mysterious message which appeared to be from Ingrid. They discovered that Ingrid had become trapped within the castle after following their trail there. Prior to entering the castle to rescue her, Leuthil proposed to Astrid. They married a few months later in Ailin's Arbor, Ingraleis.

Misc Information:
  • Like most Vallachians, Astrid’s accent is similar to that of Terran Scandinavia, her native dialect being reminiscent of Old Norse.
  • Astrid's soul is copper red in colour
