Traits: Chance encounter
You tended to get in over your head as a child, but your biggest youthful misadventure was the time you “accidentally” found yourself behind enemy lines. You probably never would have made it back home if not for the aid of a mysterious woman who helped you trick your way through a group of cultists. Ever since, you’ve just been lucky when it comes to trickery.

Benefit Once per day, if you fail an Acrobatics, Bluff, Disguise, Sleight of Hand, or Stealth check, you may immediately re-roll that check as a free action. You must take the second result, even if it is worse.

Cunning Liar (use wisdom for bluff)

Guerillia (Stealth as class skill + 1 to stealth)

background:

Galt is in f@~%ing turmoil, because its Galt. Do we become refugees again? Solveig addressed the forlorn collection of old men, scarred women and impoverished youths that made up the rest of her... Not exactly family, she did not know the status or even the name of her own father, he mother having perished as she gave birth, but other Kellid stragglers.
Where else would anyone take us? Andoran? Taldane? Styggi, the eldest male said

Mendev. Lets take back our land. Do we want to be destitute refugees, who are thrown into turmoil after turmoil, or do we want to be fighters? Even if only for the last time? I got some of these fancy Galtean boomsticks, lets see how the Kellids like these!
Solveig made her pitch, and apparently it was good enough.
There was an interesting transformation of the haggard group as they moved back north, Styggi trained some of the young ones in war, Solveig gave lessons in stealth, battlefield medicine and firearms, by the time the group of 10ish Kellids reached Kenabres, they were worth something.
Then Kenabres fell.

chance encounter:

That is an interesting weapon you have there.
A strangely beautiful women said.
Solveig immidiatly turned it on her, her movement patterns were to fluid to be mortal.
Dont shoot, you weapon is too loud, look above
The women said again, either in her mind or by word, as Solveig beheld a veritable swarm of Vrocks above her. She took cover.
You are a Succubus, or at least an Alu. Solveig said
What are you helping me? She continued
You are observant, but we are both... Desnans.
Solveig thoughts raced as the woman answered
Desna killed a Demonlord, it makes sense I guess, the Abyss respects might but. Solveig begins
If killing demonlords was what caused me to change my object of worship, I would not have switched. The sadness in the strangers voice was strong as she interjected
Head low, there is a gulley through which you can rejoin your main forces. May Desna bless you, which I am certain she will, and perhaps she will also bless me. The women disappears.

character compells:

--Sympathy for the demon lord
Solveig is aware of Nocticulas demon Lord killcount (as her agents publicise it widely, especially amongst Sarkorian Kellids). Part of the reason she worships Desna is that Desna killed a demonlord.
Upping Nocticulas killcount by 2 would resolve so many problems, but at what price?

--Crusader suspicion
While Solveigs empyreal bloodline mostly gets a pass, she is aware that the crusaders have done some very very horrible things to Kellids, as she pings on detect chaos, she will be viewed highly suspiciously by the Mendevian inqusition. She will advocate for the Kellid remains, and seek to reestablish an indepenent and free Sarkorian nation, which naturally puts her at odds with Mendevian royalists politically.
Her degree of republicanism, but more modelled after Sarkorian tribal assemblies, then demagogic Galtese assemblies, further serves to make her unpopular with the traditional Monarchists Mendevians.

--You stole our property
Galt dislikes having its firearms spread.
If Solveig becomes famous, she may find out just how much.

friends and foes:

--Solveig has chatted a fair bit about firearms with Anevia Tirabade, a officer of he eagle knights. The 2 got along great!

--Solveig dislikes Prelate Hulrun Shappuk, she lost kin in the "third crusade" and blames him.

--Sovleig, while not clergy, is obviously on good terms with the church of Desna and will often prioritize their requests.

party role:

A scout, with high perception, high stealth, ranged options and a 9th caster sorceror spell list, she intends to mostly cast buff or control spells, ith some condition removal, leaving blasting to her boomstick.
