Legends tell of an ancient, hateful mouse, a child of wrath and ice, spoken about only in hushed tones around campfires to scare children and the weak-hearted. But this mouse is no fairy tale, and has a long and dark history with the Kingdom of Gnawnia.

Long ago, a powerful band of evil mice descended yearly upon Gnawnia in fearsome raids, stealing cheese and terrifying everyone. Icewing herself lead many a raid, and was next in line for rulership when the jealous chieftans banded together and cast her out, fearful that with her incredible power and cruelty, she would have done the same to them.

Over the years since, she has raised an army from the mice who remained loyal to her, and turned her sights to the south. Determined to prove that she can accomplish more without her traitorous clan holding her back, she intends to invade Gnawnia and see every mouse there swear fealty to her as their Queen. But first, she must wipe out the pesky humans who seem to get in the way of everything...
Mouse ID#: 385
