Description
Shadassa Nal'p is a sea creature dipped in fire. The otherworldliness of her compelling personality and beauty belie the fierce loyalty and the curse that grips her in the heat of battle. Her hair is the red of burning metal and her eyes are pools of fire. A tail able to convey her through water and upon land alike merges with her human torso. Shadassa is haunted by the deaths of her long time adventuring companions. She is equally content to gently nurture the sick, command a diplomatic situation, or unleash unforgiving gouts of flame.

Background
"By Gyronna's wrath, you'll pay with one more child--your own," gasped the priestess as her lifeblood leaked out of her from the grievous wounds dealt by the merfolk ranger. Niwraysse did not think much of the curse at the time; she was too busy rescuing children of Outsea stolen by the Gyronna cultists. Some years later, though, when she bore her first child, she learned the truth of those dying words. Shadassa was born with the coloration of fire, and worse, spoke the tongue of the fire elementals when in great distress. The many arcanists and priests of Outsea could not remove the curse, but they were able to redirect it, giving Shadassa the gift of controlling fire and flame. A curiosity within the already curious community, she studied with these arcanists as a child, and then, too soon, set out into the world on her own, feeling somewhat like a self-imposed exile from a place of exiles.

The oracle soon found herself adventuring with Seldren, a hard-bitten fighter, and Corvilien, an elven mage, throughout the River Kingdoms and beyond, making a name for themselves as rescuers, liberators, and general heroes-for-hire. This all came to a sudden brutal end in the dark forest of Nidal. They had been chasing a cabal of undead who operated a network stretching up to Ustalav, and upon reaching Nidal, found themselves outgunned and outnumbered. As Seldren and Corvilien perished under the fangs of vampires, Shadassa had to incinerate friend and foe alike, weeping tears of flame.

In the ashes of the battlefield, she discovered artifacts worn by the vampires and a name inscribed on several: "Acererak, The Deathless." Determined to find the creature behind the name, Shadassa pursued myth and rumor in musty tomes and decaying tombs, burying her grief in her quest, until she found herself in the wilds of Cheliax, facing a lonely hill and holding a map in her hand.
