Shaia is a Varisian sojourner and devotee of Desna, the Great Dreamer. Long has she wandered the winding roads and wilds of Varisia with nought but the stars above to keep her company. Since childhood her dreams have guided her, walking through life in a daze, constantly on the move and drinking in each new experience to relive in the haven of her dreams. But as of late her dreams have grown restless. A great evil stirs over Varisia. She can hear the cry of the Goddess, calling her to awaken. It is a call to arms. She must be ready. The beast comes.
Shaia in a nutshell:
Shaia is a druid who has spent most of her life traveling Varisia in a sort of permanent daydream. All her life she’s been preparing for something, learning to live and move and tap into something much greater than her. The only problem is, she doesn’t know what. She believes that her fate is in the hands of Desna, and that her dreams are Desna’s way of guiding her through life. She dreams of stars and the void and great beasts of the sky. She dreams of nature and sea and the winding roads of men. A festival of butterflies, an offering to the Goddess. Sandpoint. This is where she will find her destiny.
Personality:
Shaia lives to experience things. Every day she resolves to experience as much as she can in order to expand the dreamscape in her mind. Often this leads to her focusing so much on one thing, she becomes oblivious of other things happening around her. When eating new foods in particular, she becomes enraptured to the point of completely forgetting other people even exist.
She's extremely curious about things, sometimes taking actions to see what happens even when they're not the best idea. This can and has led her into trouble on multiple occasions.
Shaia prefers to communicate through actions. Though she can speak, she seldom does unless it is necessary. This, combined with her tendency to never stay in one place for very long, has made her social skills somewhat rusty to say the least.
Shaia is a wild thing. She’s spent more nights beneath the stars than she has beneath a roof. She is a predator, a hunter, a creature of the night, and she is dangerous. In particular, she hunts and destroys aberrations and undead as well as others who pervert the natural order.
Shaia holds a lot of the same superstitions that other Varisians hold. She believes greatly in fortune telling and prophecy, and takes them very seriously.
