Background
Raised in slavery on a Chelish noble’s estate in eastern Cheliax, Asha escaped during a hunt, slaying the noble’s adolescent son in the process. He eventually made his way to a monastery of Erastil in Nirmathas, where he remained for a few years, learning both theology and fighting skills between stints in the fields. Eventually, he decided that his role was not to remain cloistered forever, but to use his own freedom to fight oppression and empower others, and ventured out of the monastery.
Appearance
A dark mop of hair tops a face angular for a halfling’s, and old for one his age. Asha wears coarse, plain traveler’s clothes which cover most of his body, but the scars of animal bites can be seen peeking from his sleeves.
Motivations
Asha’s escape from the horrors of enslavement to a stable, self-determined and self-sufficient community has left him determined to provide others with the same opportunity. After a few years at the monastery, he has decided to set out in search of opportunities to lift oppression and misery--whether from slavery or other sources.
