About Chella HeartfireBorn in darkness and raised in despair, Chella has overcome her horrific childhood with the help of her ghostly half-sister and emerged with a boundless optimism disguised by her gruff-looking exterior.
Background: Chella grew up under the domineering thumb of her demon father, one of Baphomet's lieutenants. He dedicated her life to his patron, and permanently transformed her head to match her purpose. For a long time her role was punishing sinners at her master's direction-- he would take her to a variety of different planes, and she hated it. His favorite punishment was polymorphing her into a wild bull and having her trample the subject to death-- or to what would be death, in those places where souls could not die but instead suffer eternally. They lived in a dark demiplane somewhere deep in the outer realms, part of Carceri or Tartarus, but the master often traveled to Sigil to research his targets, and he always brought Chella with him (in chains).
She has an aasimar half-sister (Peri) who tracked her down and helped her finally defeat her father, but she was forced to sacrifice her own life in the process. Peri now exists as a formless spirit, bonded to Chella and helping her from beyond the veil. Chella also has a toad familiar who was once an archdevil, before he was cursed by her father with a baleful transformation spell. For several years now the three of them have lived on Sigil. They have survived by taking odd jobs and struggling to get by, hindered terribly by a loan that Chella was forced to take out immediately after securing her freedom. (She must pay what amounts to half of her income to the Helping Hands Company until the loan is completely paid off, which will likely never happen.) However, a recent job offer from The Organization might have turned her luck around! Description:
Chella is short for a human, perhaps 5'5", and is obviously incredibly strong-- muscles rippling under her simple clothes worn over what might be a particularly light suit of chain mail. Her head is not human at all, but a literal bull's head with sharp horns, and twice the size of a human head. She carries an enormous cudgel, banded in iron, that never leaves her side, and she wears a pouch of spellcasting components on her belt. Her voice is light and friendly, much at odds with her monstrous appearance, and her nature is kind and helpful, optimistic and forgiving. She has become very good at pretending to be dangerous and menacing over the years, but those who know her well have learned that she is soft at heart. Name: Chella Heartfire
