Ulmaria grew up in Diobel on the Isle of Kortos, working as a pearl diver from a young age. They passed the time chatting with sailors, traders, and especially Pathfinders, using her meager pay to buy drinks for strangers in exchange for their stories. One Pathfinder, a human scholar named Viviane Licheria, became a regular visitor and friend, one who specialized in Azlanti lore and ruins. Viviane saw potential in the young Low Azlanti, and encouraged them to pursue more knowledge of their impressive ancestors’ past. Ulmaria took her suggestion to heart, and started exploring the submerged Azlanti ruins around the Isle of Kortos. In the presence of those ancient sites, the psychic magic in Ulmaria awoke, and she discovered that she could channel ancient Azlanti legends, heroes and villains alike.

With her newly discovered abilities, Ulmaria was no longer content to be a simple pearl diver. She roamed the streets and waters of Diobel, helping those in need, taking on thuggish sailors, cavorting with revelers, and even talking magical theory with passing mages on the rare occasions that she channelled the Archmage. Viviane invited her to move to Absalom and join the Pathfinders, but she was enjoying being a big fish in a small pond too much to quit. Meanwhile, others had noticed Ulmaria as well. When a particularly aggressive group of harpies attacked the town, she set out to join the fight, luckily having channelled an Azlanti Champion. The battle was bitter, and it took everything Ulmaria had to win - including losing control to the Champion.

When she awoke, she found herself underwater, in a cave she had never seen before. She called on the Champion and set out to uncover where she was. Navigating the maze of underwater caves, Ulmaria found that she had been imprisoned when she came across an old Azlanti style gate blocking the only exit they could find. The ancient metal proved no match for the Champion’s might, though, and Ulmaria managed to put enough of a dent in a weak spot to push through. The tunnel continued, and she came upon a perilous battle: Pathfinder agents - including Viviane - locked in battle with an aboleth. The creature sent shudders down the gillfolk’s spine, and she charged forward to aid the struggling Pathfinders. Blood was shed on both sides, and Ulmaria felt their mind especially weak to the aberration’s mental attacks, but eventually the creature was driven off.

In the aftermath, Viviane revealed that she was a member of the Chtonian Chroniclers, and offered Ulmaria a field commission. Intrigued by her offer and disturbed by the creature that had imprisoned them and so affected their mind, Ulmaria finally agreed to join the Pathfinder Society to learn more about the Dark Tapestry and what could be done to combat its horrors. She now finds herself in Ustalav, hoping that she's made the right decision to leave her small pond and dive into deeper mysteries that may be better left untouched.

Ulmaria is hearty and strong with a nice layer of fat over their muscles to guard against the cold waters around Diobel and Absalom that she's used to. She has the classic Azlanti features that Gillfolk often display: dark hair, impressive brows, pale skin, and vivid purple eyes. She wears a full set of plate armor, magically tinted a dark blue-green color and engraved with a sea motif.

They are curious and jovial, especially for the usually reclusive gillfolk, with a love for trading stories with travelers, revelers, and all sorts. The spirit they channel also seems to have an impact on their personality; Ulmaria especially favors the Champion spirits she can contact, although they sometimes push her to brash decisions and the occasional fight that could have been smoothed over with the right words.
