Lanya grew up on a simple farm in Lastwall, close to the forest of Fangwood, her world being just the farmhouse, the barn and the nearby forest. Growing up she became a beautiful girl, discovering that she had the looks and a talent for getting other people to do things she wanted them to do. It started with simple chores like cleaning out the stables or chop some wood. Later as she became a woman she moved to the capital city of Vigil, at first she was shunned there for being an half-elf, later many people fell for her charming personality, mostly men. She convinced some men (according to her)(many, according to others), there to buy her jewelry and clothes, promising 'something' in return. However her lies and deception have made her few friends and gave her the names ‘Two-Faced’ and ‘Split-Tongued’. No one knew how fitting that latter was, not even Lanya herself or her parents.

Her heritage became more clear when she was attacked by a former fling in Vigil, he held her to the wall and yelled at her, demanding to know why she had played him so. In her self-defence, as he almost choked her, she bit him, two pronounced bite marks were left in his hand as he let her go. A few days later he died of a snake’s poison, Lanya, eventually tying the knots together, went to the wizard’s school for help. They acknowledged her innate ability for magic and charming as she was, she convinced a few wizards there to give her a crash course in using magic.

Following these events she 'escaped' her life there, a little bit afraid of her magic still. She heard stories of Brevoy being a country where several half-elves lived freely and even had influence in some way or another. Having traveled far and long to come to Brevoy she found rest and food at an inn in Restov, her first stop in the country. Using one of her quickly taught spells, she dusted herself off, she liked being clean and proper, she drew the attention and raised eyebrows of some of the patrons. One of them, a Surtovan, approached her first, trying to sweet talk her, telling she was beautiful, as if she didn't already know that. As she stood up and walked away, the Surtovan cursed her name and stormed out of the inn.

A man in the corner of the inn shook his head and smiled at the scene, saying "He had that coming to him sooner or later." Lanya just smiled at him and sat next to him, asking if he would care to explain the houses of Brevoy, pointing out that she had just arrived in these lands. The man introduced himself as Alexei Medvyed, explained the work of the houses in Brevoy, eventually asking Lanya for her story. As she told him the story, he got intrigued, offering her a place to stay with his family as a courier and maiden of the house.
Eventually her talents for diplomacy and a conversation holder became apparent during the many meetings, parties and feasts that were given. Always appearing quite tactful and quick with a wit, she became quite popular among the guests of the house of Alexei Mevyed, even more so that he often asked her as an envoy of sorts when he couldn't make a meeting.

Lanya learned not only to control her magical powers while in Brevoy, but also how to apply it the most useful way. Though she still has her manipulative habits, she intends to put those habits and her magic to good use, joining the most recent adventuring party into the Stolen Lands, as an emissary and face of House Medvyed and a way to pay back her new-found family for her good lifestyle of recent years.

A sparkling personality, a bit too dependent on her good looks and fancy clothing. She is sometimes a bit shallow in her regards of others. She likes to talk and socialize, but doesn’t like getting dirty, using Prestigitation as often as she can to clean herself up, though she still likes to be outdoors as when she was on the farm, it makes her think of the home she has left behind.

She is 5 feet 6, lean, long red curly hair, sometimes bound into a pony tail, green eyes and many would call her a natural beauty. Often dressed as a wealthy merchant or aristocrat, often impersonating the type of speech as well.
