About Laurestine ValerianBackground:
Slowly, carefully, Laurestine turns over in her hand what seems to be a dragon-looking skull. Excitement fills her once again at her find. "This is what I need to get that start back in Katapesh city. That professor wanted something of value for his private collection and I think these will be what he wants. He should pay a reasonable amount for this." she thinks as she packs up her findings. Laurestine Valerian is a draconic archaeologist in search of all things dragon related. For reasons that she doesn't yet fully understand, she is inexplicably drawn to all things draconic. All she knows is that she wants to learn everything she can about them. It even seems as though she can see better in the night than she used to. Or maybe it was just her. At about her 12th year she began to linger about the explorers guild, and would observe the archaeologists who came in for supplies and the like. She would listen to their tales and learn from them about the process of digging for relics. They would come in will all sort of items, from old weapons that had long since rusted over, to things like a music box that had seen better days. On other occasions what they brought in was in much better condition. Sometime during all of this she realized that this is what she wanted to do. Since she needed more than just participating in various expeditions, she enrolled at the school of Flair in Absalom to study.

Since she needed more than just participating in various expeditions, she enrolled at the school of Flair in Absalom to study. After graduating, her father helped her to get a job on a dig site in the mountains of the Katapesh, southwest of the Brazen Peaks. After spending time there, the expedition completed the site, and headed back to the city of Katapesh. With her job complete, she began to travel and see where her experiences would take her.
