Background:

Azen was raised in the south of Brevoy in a large family, being the oldest of 1 daughter and 5 sons. She'd always wondered what it would be like to have a sister, but enjoyed her time with her mother, learning how to sing and entertain (her mother had been a bard and her father a ranger), and dreaming of adventure.

She grew up bow hunting with her father and younger brothers, learning to hunt and how to make her own arrows, and when she got old enough she would go and sing with her mother in different places, until she eventually started getting her own gigs and being able to support herself with that and a part time job at the school, teaching some singing and acting.

She did well at teaching, and moved up to being the Schoolmistress. She was extremely good at keeping both her her own siblings and the rest of the children in line, making wise decisions and earning a good reputation. She was also well-liked by the students, who enjoyed the stories she read to them and the plays that she wrote for them to perform, which she continued to do even after getting her promotion.

When Caleb, a local widower with a young son in her class, asked for her hand in marriage, she turned him down, not being ready to let go of her dreams of adventure. She explained that she was looking for someone to adventure with, not to settle down with... or at least not yet.

Coincidentally, the day that she broke up with Caleb was the same day that a half-elf woman showed up at her door asking directions to her parent's home. She accompanied her, and found out on the way there that the woman believed they were half-sisters. ... After getting home and having this confirmed by her father, who was in shock, and the minor spectacle of a sibling born before their parents had even met, everyone calmed down, and they started to get to know Celebeth.

She stayed for a few months, and Azen was overjoyed to have a sister for the first time, and grateful to have another female role model in her life besides her mother. Azen didn't want to lose touch with her, and so was surprised and pleased when Celebeth suggested that they join up and explore southward. Extracting herself from her life took some time, but she was determined to go, not only because it seemed like a good thing to do for country and family, but because she was thrilled to be going on an adventure at all, and even more so that it would be with her sister.

Appearance / Personality:

Tall, olive complexion, dark hair, and beautiful, but she's not really aware of how those things affect other people. She's fiercely loyal to her family, but also very free-spirited, not wanting to be tied down or burdened with a lot of responsibility that she can't get out of. She has a little bit of a rebellious streak compared to the rest of her family, but only insofar that she is neutral good, willing to admit that the laws can be too strict and too harsh sometimes, and that justice has to be tempered with mercy, but definitely not willing to encourage chaos and anarchy.

Azen is typically patient and kind to others, but if she feels like you are lying to her or trying to deceive her, she can be fairly intolerant, and if it is personal and not professional, she might even lash out. She's an oldest child and used to getting her way and being able to manipulate/guide others. She's intelligent, well-spoken, and polite, but has a low tolerance for what she sees as evil, and although she is more than willing to give second and third chances to those who she believes are well-meaning, if she believes that the intention is evil, then her judgement can be harsh (or deadly, if she is attacked).
