Background:
It wasn't her fault. Nylie Brillamorrow couldn't help the obsession with magic that drew her away from her parents; it was her nature as a gnome to seek stimulation. Hapenthepyut Krisslemonger and Kel Grangetiggle had found parenthood to be an endless challenge, that kept their colors vibrant. But then Nylie followed her talents and her interest to Theumenxus College in East Shore, where they hardly saw her any more, living in Bridgefront. And it wasn't their fault that Hapenthepyut and Kel broke up and left Korvosa, headed in opposite directions; having evolved in the First World, not the Material Plane, novelty was a biological necessity.
And so Nylie found herself alone with her magic and her cat, which suited her just fine, until she discovered religion. The endless creation and beauty of Shelyn spoke to her gnomish soul; and the people that she met at the sanctuary of Shelyn in North Point tended to be really unique. A couple of them were even beginning wizards like herself, although they went to the Acadamae instead of Theumenexus. Suleiyel was a banisher from Kyonin, with the audacious ambition of defeating Treerazer once and for all -- but he was completely serious about it, and who knew what he might be capable of a few centuries from now? Another was Pakak, also an abjurer, but as different as you could imagine: a half-orc cook instead of an elven bookbinder (and likely the most stylish orckin that you've ever seen).
Naturally, the Acadamae had tried to recruit Nylie, assuming (accurately) that the clever gnome must have a talent for illusion magic; but she adamantly refused to join, since they required specialization, and she was determined to learn everything that she possibly could about everything. Talking to Suleiyel and Pakak, sometimes she'd wonder if she made the right decision, when she heard about all the gnomes in the illusion department, and the amazing tricks that they could do; but then they'd they'd confirm her decision by talking about the dominance of the conjuration department and its focus on summoning fiends, which she had absolutely no interest in.
Then good King Eodred II died, and the city went to Hell. (Metaphorically speaking. For now.) As bad as the riots were in East Shore (so close to Thief Camp), Nylie heard that it was even worse in Old Korvosa, where she and her parents used to live. Then the Hellknights came in and restored order; but at what cost? And for how long? Nylie longs to help her people -- still identifying with Bridgefront, despite living in the lap of luxury, with a room all to herself in a spacious college campus -- but she doesn't know what to do.
