Sarithil sat across the table from her grandson in the waning desert light. She looked like a person not much older than thirty, but she was far from that. If she had sat there in her true form, one would only get a glimpse into all that she was. And even now, she was doing her best to hold her temper. ”And so you think that you’ll find justice in Cheliax? You’ll find nothing but trouble there.”

Alabaster nodded in affirmation and replied a bit too eagerly. ”Yes, that’s what I want. For the people who killed your son and my son.” Despite no longer being in the flower of youth, he was still a fine specimen of a man in strength and looks. Fine yellow hair with a trace of gray at the temples, he kept no weapons, but held an aura about him that was dangerous.

”You know and I know that what you are planning is reckless, dangerous, and likely to leave me with less family than I currently have. I’ve already lost too much.” She spoke with a pain in her eyes that was difficult to fathom. She had indeed lost many friends and family since the rise of House Thrune. This was a fact well known to her grandson who had heard the story many times in his thirty six years.

It was her pain that gave him pause, because it resonated so deeply within him. While his family had not set foot in Cheliax for the past sixty years, there was still a price on any of their heads. A price that had been collected just seven years ago. Finding his eight year old son was enough to nearly break him, and it was enough to destroy his marriage. His wife had lost herself in pesh and was killed in a black market deal three years later. He calmed himself and spoke surely and quietly to his elder. ”This is not a spur of the moment decision. It’s something that needs to be done, if only for my own sake. I haven’t been able to move on, if I do not deal with it, it will eat me alive.”

She sat not entirely impassively at the other end of the table. It had been nearly seven years since her grandson had wanted to do anything at all, so lost was he in his own despair. There was a time where he was an up and coming merchant, a man of his word but shrewd in his dealing. Unlike his father, he took naturally to magic as well and had received much instruction and progressed on his own, even taking the dragon marks on his body to help increase his power. But that was so long ago. Did that boy still have his previous influence and potency? She wished that were the truth. There was but one way to discover it, and she did not wish that the test were taken.

Sighing, she relented as they both knew she would. She reached within her pocket and pulled out a pair of crystal lenses. ”Take these.” She spoke with tenderness. ”They will disguise your face and help you perceive danger." She also could not keep entirely a straight face as he put them on, seeing his eyes magnified to ridiculous proportions.

”So, the price I have to pay for your blessing is my dignity? He spoke in a tight frown as if he were stifling a smile.

She reached out and grasped his hand. ”No one can take that from you.”

”I’d be more inclined to believe you if you could keep a straight face.”

-------------------------------------------

Due to his family’s conspicuous and sordid history in the Cheliaxian nation, it was impressed upon him to travel in disguise and under a pseudonym. Grandmother had recommended Alabaster Borealis, and although he didn’t like how pretentious it sounded, he went with it due to a lack of a better one. Sarithil had even said “they could call you Al!” and laughed but it was obvious that only she got the joke. Perhaps her laughter was a bit forced, but he laughed with her and it was the way it had been before their shared tragedy.

He booked a passage across the water on a boat called “The Fairy’s Tit” that he expected to be small and inconspicuous, but after seeing the lewd figurehead it made sense that the ship was enormous. Being as large as it was, it did attract a pair of pirate vessels far from their port of origin. The crew was experienced but outnumbered, and it fell upon the passengers to make up the difference. Though no one saw his work, Alabaster did make a fair difference with a number of charred and torn up corpses found near his cabin. He did his best to keep things quiet as fire on a boat was never a popular topic. Nonetheless, the crew was glad to see him leave once they got to port in Egorian.

Once there, he looked for opportunities to earn capital. Without information or even a clue of basic geography, he needed time to acclimate to his new environment. When he heard of opportunities to kill goblins for money, he caught a ride with a new friend in a caravan headed in that direction. Perhaps he’d find his father’s and son’s killers. Perhaps he’d find the old family estate. Perhaps he’d just cause trouble for the nobility that had so easily buckled under the pressure to uphold evil. Perhaps he’d see his grandmother again. And perhaps, just perhaps he’d learn to move on with his life.

Moonrise came again. The silversheen abbey lay still, and it was a stillness of three hearts. The first, simplest, greatest, oldest, gravest, was the abbey itself. A tincture of disuse, a strong scent of overgrown honeysuckle and rose. Great thorns, and the musk of bone and ash. That heart of fire had long stopped beating, when the old earth below gave it's last gasp. Oh some blood still flowed, the earthen glow red in the moonlight, but the forges and fires, the books and their keepers, all gone. Faded, remembered darkly. Visages captured in masterwork detail, each about her business. Here a mason, there a cook, caught in an instant. No time for horror. Charred where they stood. Ashen statuary to adorn the once dead gardens. This was the second heart then, the heart of the old abbess, and her pride. The curse shook the rock, and laid her city low. The last heart, was a simpler thing. The frozen, still fresh scent of fear. This was appropriate, for Ondrea had much to fear. Somewhere, just inside the vestibule, the old abbess was chanting, and all Ondrea could do was hope that her companions reached her in time.

It started, as these things do, simply. Ondrea Falconer was a paladin of the white lady. Shelynites of the white followed a simple code. In life, there is beauty, in forgiveness, love. It sounded entirely appropriate to young Ondrea Fairlyn's mother, and deathly dull to 'Drea. Her adoptive parents were wealthy, and had her temper been more temperant, she'd have lived a quiet life of the sort that rarely involves whispered prayers of salvation. Her father assured her that if she did well in her novitae, he would make a place for her among his merchant captains, as a knight of the White Lady would be entirely respected by any port she found herself in. This was enough to convince young Ondrea to enter service.

The first week was enough to convince slightly older Ondrea that young Ondrea had been a foolishly naive girl with an easy life. Hard lessons heal cleanest, a lesser tenet of the White Lady. Ondrea learned, and healed, and learned, and healed, and in the end, determined that her father had tricked her, soundly. She rather respected him for it, and wondered, as children do, if he'd done it intentionally. She had a great deal of time for wonder, between mopping, and running, and being roundly beaten with sticks by a woman eighty times her age. Wonder, and a quiet sense of worth. On the ninth month, young Ondrea met Gull. He wasn't a gull of course. He was a gyrefalcon. The sort her father raised, just the sort of bird to send one's daughter in durance vile. He came with a note, reminding her that at the end of her studies lay great adventures. She sent it back with soapstains, and a scrawled answer that was not precisely ladylike. Ellen, upon seeing him when she reported for sword training (Stick Beatings) noted that he was quite a bit better about dodging than she was, and perhaps Ondrea simply needed to pay more attention. She healed, and learned to leave Gull in her room.

If the training sounds harsh, it wasn't. I made friends, the finest. Enemies of the highest caliber. Life and longer companions. I learned more about myself than I ever sought to. Careful. Go easy with that, learning's a fickle love, and will kill as soon as kiss you. To know too much is to know only how little there is. Soon enough my time in the Cove ended, and with it, a quiet beginning.

Ondrea Falconer wears several tightly woven grey cloaks, edged with some unknown fur, a deep blue, or maybe black. Her eyes are sharp, a startlingly deep green. She rarely takes off her helm, but strands of hair and more of that strange fur peek out at the ears. She stands medium height, and when viewed unaware appears much younger than her animated presence suggests. She is not pretty, but she is striking. Her voice cuts through conversation, and her presence is undeniable. She has also mastered that singular form of invisibility that the bards so treasure, that of the dismissed fop, although she rarely uses it.

Ondrea is a girl.

from d20pfsrd's paraphrase: Scion of Humanity Some aasimars' heavenly ancestry is extremely distant. An aasimar with this racial trait counts as an outsider (native) and a humanoid (human) for any effect related to race, including feat prerequisites and spells that affect humanoids. She can pass for human without using the Disguise skill. This racial trait replaces the Celestial language and alters the native subtype.

Ondrea's 'your many great grandparent was a celestial' aasimar, not 'your parent was an azata'.

No, Ondrea's not made of living steel. She received a set of MW armor from some dwarven parents when she convinced the daughter to let her pet (eggnapped) dragon go. Living steel was a convenient way to resize it without it being magical, and a nice 'please don't tell anyone our daughter arranged to eggnap a dragon' incentive.

Al's Grandfather was the last surviving member of House Kaxon, and a relatively powerful sorcerer who had opposed the rise of House Thrune. Though they had powerful allies, including a Brass Dragon by the name of Sarithil, they were unable to survive the gathered might of hell commanded by house Thrune and were forced to retreat to Thuvia across the water. Bonded by their loss and shared experiences, the two of them had several romantic encounters (involving shape changing magic of course) but eventually went their separate ways, but not without consequence. They had a son, Kaylor, who was raised by his father. But this is not their story. Kaylor married and had a son, we will cal him "Al".

Alabaster spent some time as a young man working a business, buying and selling various items of value. He had a good eye for items and used his expertise and people skills, starting with a small bit of capital, and was able to build a fairly sizable business. Like his ancestry, he slept on his amassed treasure. He was also able to avoid spending much money on guards, and had developed a reputation of being able to take out potential robbers and thugs with ease. After a few attempts, most of the riff-raff left him alone, but there were always new and stupid bandits who would have to learn the hard way. [Trait= Trustworthy]

He met a nice girl in the markets and settled down with her, having one child, a son who was his pride and joy. When the boy was about three years old, he went on an outing with his grandfather, Kaylor. Both of them were discovered and killed by assassins from Cheliax. Al was to meet up with them later and discovered the bodies. Like good assassins, they left no trace, but Al was convinced that it was Cheliax that caused their deaths, a fact his Grandmother also believed for better reasons. Though grief and depression ended up ruining him, his business and his marriage, he spent most of his amassed treasure just surviving until he was able to pick himself back up again.

(The only thing left from his time as a merchant was a cracked blue and crimson sphere Ioun Stone that gives a +1 to Appraise Checks)

[insert conversation with Grandma here]

[insert Encounter with Pirates here]

(The ship captain was grateful for his help and gave Al a portion of the spoils from the bandits. He gained a +1 Mithral Buckler out of the deal.)

Traveling along with the caravan, Al ended up talking business with the caravan owner through most of the trip up to the northwest. The ride was mostly uneventful and pleasant, but with one nagging issue. He'd used magic on the caravaneer to encourage him to let him come along without money or connection, and he began to feel guilty about it because the man he charmed was a genuinely nice person. It seemed not all chelish people were bad, just most of their leadership. Al ended up abandoning the caravan after it passed a certain town and while he was on the way back, he was attacked by an owlbear, whom he was able to destroy with his magic. A wandering Oracle did heal him of most of his scratches and directed him to a different place entirely, saying he'd find the beginnings of answers in this place and disappeared.
