Hope it's not too late. I have a lot to learn about creating characters on the forum.
Bast Fibblemegoth - Mesmerist 3 / Spirit Guide Oracle 3
As a child, Bast often played with the voices in her head. While initially charmed by her, her family soon grew more embarrassed, and annoyed that her inate magic seemed touched by genies rather than be more gnomish. When her uncle lost 18-year-old Bast in a trade with the denizens of the Witchmarket, most of the Fibblemegoth's thought it was probably for the best.
Bast herself fluctuated from finding the voices comforting one minute, to completely distracting and annoying the next. She figured she must really be crazy and maybe this was the best life she was going to live. And since the trader she worked for (Veruk the Magnificient) treated her relatively kindly (at least compared to others), Bast settled in to her servitude. During the day she helped soften the marks before her boss made the deals, and at night she deconstructed and crafted her wares. Things could definitely have been worse.
Veruk had indeed taken a liking to her, and over time helped her to make sense of the voices. With guidance, Bast began to realize that the voices were actually 17 ancestors, all fighting to be heard and to make their presence known again in the world. Veruk taught her how to manage them, work with them, and give them each time to shine.
As the dangers from the Worldwound began to grow, the purveyors of the Witchmarket grew sullen. Not only was this bad for business, but a few of them had been taken, others killed. While they normally didn't care about "earthly" affairs, it seemed they would have to act. Several of the group volunteered to join the crusade.
As Bast's time of service was coming to an end, Veruk cajoled/coerced her to head to Kenabres and see if she could do something about this annoyance. Bast did feel she owed Veruk a lot as she not only enhanced her magical and psychic abilities, she'd also tamed the madness in her head. (occult bargain drawback) She agreed to go.
(Mechanically, I want the Bonded Spirit part of her archetype to be a random roll each day to see which bonded spirit makes an appearance. Bast doesn't have enough control to ask/demand a specific one to come forward each day.)
