Background:
Shaless was born to an island dwelling tribe of reclusive elves off the Mwanji Expanse. Hers was a simple life of fishing and worshipping an aspect of Gozreh. Unfortunately, a pirate ship stumbled across this island paradise and slaughtered her village. Shaless was taken prisoner by the ship's captain, a vicious Half-Elf named Vester the Sharkfin. He kept her locked in his cabin by virtue of an enchanted set of manacles that sapped the willpower of whoever was chained in them. For years she was his plaything. Her mind retreated within itself, leaving her in an almost feral state. During a fierce tropical storm, Sharkin was distracted enough for her to grab the key and free herself. Once free of the manacles, her mind came back to her, and she threw herself overboard into the thrashing surf when confronted with the full brunt of the horrors of her captivity. She thought she'd drowned, but felt a presence within the storm. In her mind, Gozreh came to her in the form of a great shark and took her to an island. Awakening on the beach the next morning, Shaless returned to the simple life she'd known, but with a deeper connection to nature. She watched the sharks that swam in the nearby reef, always moving, fierce and sure. Gozreh had come to her as a shark. In the ocean, it was best to be a shark. As her time on the island went by, she began to yearn for company, and also to seek revenge on the pirate who had taken so much from her. When a fishing vessel came to the island for water and repairs, she presented herself to the captain, using her magic to provide water and fresh food. In return he dropped her off at Port Peril, as she was seeking pirates. She found herself in the Formidable Maid. It was good to be around people again, even the chaotic mix at the Maid.
RP Sample:
The Formidable Maid was loud, loud with music and laughter and shouting. She thought of her youth in the village, the big bonfires and celebration had a similar energy. But this wasn't the village. A few men looked at her in a manner she didn't like, but the trident gripped in her hand seemed to defer all but glances. A dancing halfling thrust a cup into her free hand, curtsied and disappeared into the crowd. Thinking it was water, she quaffed it down...it wasn't water. Gozreh, it burnt! A roar of laughter went up from those around her and someone clapped her on the back. Her head swam, and suddenly her brain felt pleasantly fuzzy. "More!" she shouted, and the crowd roared again.
Later than night, she sat on the dock, watching a small shark swim in lazy circles around the pilings. The halfling water burnt, but it made her feel lighter somehow. Suddenly, it disappeared with an audible splash. "Something must have startl--" was Shaless' last thought before darkness.
