Ushari grew up near the docks of {Name TBD} as an only child. her mother Harlonia Eroptol, working long hours as a waitress in one of the sleazier dives. She took care of her as best she could, but her father, Vectir Velnokal, was rarely there to support the family. Her mother would only say he is sailing all over Miir, and didn't know when he would come back. She loved her only daughter, and tried to get her enrolled on one of the bardic colleges. They did not accept her, but she did discover a fine singing voice. But for some reason she could not sing very well, her voice kept slipping out of tune.
After she turned 15, her mother "encouraged" her to move out on her own. Ushari never found out why, as her mother never expalined why. Maybe it has something to do with her father...she resolved to see what happened to him. She left {Name TBD} on one of the merchant vessels, and learned the rudiments of sailing (and smuggling). She was not treated well initially, but once the crew found out about her singing voice, she was treated much better. She ended up staying with a ship's first mate, Gerold Felpert who was smitten with her, and professed his love for her. Being young and alone, frightened her, especially when she heard tales of what sailors would to to Calistrae 'ladies'. When her friend issued an ultimatum, marry him or else. She refused the offer, as she did not love him, she didn't even know what love is, and physical intimacy frightened her. She was beaten for her troubles. Soon afterwards, she fled from him, and found passage on another ship. So now, she has arrived at {Name TBD}, ready to start over, hoping to make more friends, and earn some money, and experience, before continuing her search.
Ushari was dropped off at the docks after being kicked off the ship she was working on about two weeks ago. She found a job at a local bar known as The Lizard's Boat, popular among the middle class locals and travelers alike, and has been acting as a barmaid there ever since. The proprietor of the Lizard’s Boat is Kailee Restinan, a one-time elven ranger who lost her left hand to an angry wyvern in the nearby Dreadwood several years ago, Her animal companion, a monitor lizard named Sticktongue, serves as a mascot and bouncer for the tavern. Keeping things quiet and the men in line. Ushari has run into Godelina and Edan a number of times at the in and because they are close to each others age a friendship is beginning to blossom between them.
