About Azana Vansilya

The child of Varisian gypsies, Azana Vansilya grew up traveling the caravan routes of Varisia. As a youth, she learned the art of Varisian fortune-telling, which helped her to earn her keep and contribute financially to her family. Her magical ability began to manifest on her eight seventh and became an integral part of the gypsies' performances.

Officially unschooled, Azana's skill was eventually noticed by the wizards at the Acadamae in Korvosa. Impressed by her raw power, they offered to help shape her magical skills. Her family enrolled her in the school though, unbeknownset to them, the fiendesh wizards were primarily intersted in exploiting what they recognized as her draconic heritage.

For three years, Azana managed to barely pass her studies by depending on her talent to directly manifest magical effects. Lacking the aptitude or patience for tranditional wizardry and book-learning, she eventually informed her teacher that she intended to leave and return to her nomadic family.

To her dismay, the treacherous wizards would not allow her to leave and kept her in the school under lock and key. There motives exposed, the wizards spent the next several years subjecting her to magical experiments intended to reveal the secrets of her draconic blood.

After finally escaping the Acadamae, Azana determined that it was time to better understand her heritage and magical ability. In addition, her years as a captive affected her so much that she decided to devote herself to freeing captives everywhere. Joining the Pathfinder Society was an obvious way to achieve these goals.

Azana is a statuesque beauty with long blonde hair and bright green eyes. However, when bathed in firelight, her hair sparkles with a metallic sheen and her emerald irises appear ringed in a deep, fiery orange.
