Belle was thrown out of her home at a yong age when her parents discovered by chance that she was not their daughter. Ripped from a comfortable if unloving home by this act, Belle went for a time to a dark place, saved only by the actions of a priest of desna, one Alice. She changed her name from Belle to Jacintah to show her own break from the past and tried to move on.
At first she thought to become a priest, but then she was contacted, if thats the right word, by star. Slar was a lemming, but something more, and Jacintah suddenly gained power. Alice said that star had been sent by desna, and she had a different path. Then around that time, Jacintah started to hear a call. She was warned by star and alice that this was her true mother, a being of evil, and that she should flee. She and star fled, with alice staying to distract the hag.
Time past with Jacintah moving from place to place. Then one day in a villiage she was attacked by the zombified corpse of alice. She manage to destroy it, but the village, superstitous and frightened tried to lynch her. Her spells used up, she could not resist the horde until a man, Professor Lorrimar stode the mob down. With a few guards he held them off, and they all escaped.
Jacintah was very thankful to the professor and accompanied him on a few expeditions. She then went her own way awhile. Saddened to hear of the professors death she hurries to ravango (not certain of name) to his funeral.
