-------------------- Nedra was raised by the owners of a tavern in Port Peril after being abandoned as an infant on their doorstep. Being childless themselves, the halfling couple, Jory and Obelia Stoutfoot, adopted her as their own daughter despite some misgivings. Even as a child Nedra's moods were as changeable as the sea, and her strangely mismatched eyes likewise hinted at the touch of magic somewhere in her ancestry. Once she was old enough Nedra began helping her parents around the tavern, known as The Grumpy Pig, either helping her mother with the cooking or doing other chores around the place. With Port Peril being the rough and tumble place that it is the young girl also learned how to deal with the many sailors, thieves and misfits patronizing her parent's business. When Nedra hit puberty everything changed as her latent arcane blood began manifesting itself, often in inexplicable ways. She found that she could sense the moods and emotions of the sea creatures in and around the port. Also her nails hardened and lengthened, becoming razor-sharp, and Nedra found she no longer needed light to see by at night. Strange things would happen in her vicinity - objects moving for no reason, or fresh food she served instantly turning rotten - gaining Nedra an unwanted reputation for sorcery. Unable to explain what was happening with their daughter, the Stoutfoots asked a local hedge witch named Imani Zumal for help. Using her knowledge, spells and powers, the witch determined the source of Nedra's problems... She was the half-blooded child of a sea hag! Horrified by the revelation, but worried for their adopted daughter's well-being, Jory and Obelia convinced Imani to take Nedra on as her apprentice. In that way the young girl could learn to control her magic, and hopefully also temper her sometimes violently changeable emotions. It would also provide a cover for Nedra's magics, as being an apprentice witch would explain some of her abilities, without having to reveal her heritage to anyone else. -------------------- Appearance:
-------------------- Nedra is a petite young woman with red hair, fair skin and unusual eyes; the right eye is green while the left is blue. Anyone observing her hands and feet very closely will notice that they are partially webbed. In addition her nails seem to grow and lengthen, becoming razor sharp and hard as.... well... nails, whenever she becomes agitated. To all other outward appearances Nedra seems to be a normal, albeit very short, human woman of either Chelish or possibly Varisian ancestry. Note; although the racial description for Changelings says that they are always tall and slender, the random height table caps their height at 4'10"! So I'm taking the approach that since their child-rearing methods are somewhat cuckoo-like, changeling babies take on some of the attributes of their foster parents, hence Nedra is short because she was raised by halflings! For the same reasons, I swapped out Orc from her bonus languages for Halfling, just to fit with the background story. :p -------------------- Familiar:
-------------------- Moira is Nedra's sea krait familiar, a black and white banded sea snake who normally nestles comfortably in Nedra's bodice, where it's nice and warm, and she can remain close to her mistress... as well as providing a deterrent to drunken patrons at her parent's tavern from trying to grope her!
