Description:
It is obvious that Sassarra isn't wholly human. Her skin is aqua with darker flowing lines across it. Long deep blue hair flows down. She is small and rail-thin, years of deprivation obvious on her. The callouses of many manacles encircle her wrists and ankles. While she has the marks of many scars on her, her left hand stands out as the cruelest. It's twisted and stiff because of the deep branding left on it. Though the scars are twisted, the skull and chains of Zon-Kuthon are obvious to those who look deeply. She keeps herself tense, always watching for danger.
Personality, quirks and flaws:
She has spent years as a slave, and is always guarded. Revealing any hope or desire or joy is a way for others to manipulate you. Those emotions are weakness. Life is violence and pain. It will always come and the best you can do is keep your head down and try to minimize it. Sometimes she remembers the life she had as a child with her mother. Being carefree and loved for at least part of the day. But she locks herself down when she feels that.
Privacy means nothing to her. Her body is not her own. She has been used and this is normal to her. It is just one of her duties.
The only time she lets her guard down is when she has been rewarded with pesh. It's been infrequent enough that she hasn't been addicted, though she'd lose herself in it if she could. She knows that she's vulnerable when she takes it, and afterwards she always regrets losing control. But more than just the euphoria, this represents her being given a gift from her masters.
Background:
Sassarra has never known a day of freedom in her life.
She was born and raised in a luxurious prison. Her mother Arisha was beautiful, as were all of her "aunties". They dressed in the finest silks and satins. In the mornings, she could swim in an elegant marble pool filled with elementally pure water. But later in the day, she had to keep quiet in the back of the closet for fear of angering Great Sir. From her place hidden behind the dresses she could hear what happened when Great Sir was angered. And later, she learned how to help treat the wounds left behind.
But as she grew, she came into her powers. Her elemental heritage was somehow stronger than her mother's. They hid it for a while, but eventually Great Sir learned of her abilities. Within a month, she was walking across the desert chained to a line of other slaves. She was expected to keep them all alive with her water powers. Any disobedience would be punished harshly - sometimes to her and sometimes to others in her name. At the end of the trip, she was rewarded with a pipeful of pesh to send her off to sweet dreams.
Over the next few years she crossed the desert many times. She was traded and sold and even stolen once. She learned that she could spray water with enough force to batter a person. That led to her learning what it was like to be beaten almost to death. She awoke bound in a pile of dead children. Children that had died because of her rebellion. When she was able to walk again, she was told that she would use her powers on orders only.
NPC's and plot hooks:
It has been over a decade since she has seen her mother. The rumors are that she is still alive and that she has a younger brother. Even the possibility that she has a sibling who went through this cuts her deeply. It's one thing for her to face this, but it's worse for another person to do this. If she finds more information, she will free them.
She has also been through housed with many slaves. There's a quiet bond with some of them from suffering together. Others resent her for the status she had for her powers. Likewise, she's had many owners and overseers.
