Velcryian grew up like any other gnome would in the empire, orphaned, hunted, alone, and outcast. She learned early on it was better to be someone else. It was while she was taking refuge in the home a halfling slave family that she realized that she could pass as one. From that day on she was no longer a gnome but a halfling named Vykral. She spent several years with them learning how to be a halfling and fit into the society that wanted her dead. After the patriarch failed to return home from his aily labors she decided it was time to move on. With her new identity she travelled the empire moving from ship to ship and town to town. She had a natural talent for telling stories, acting, singing, and dancing and found out others needed to pay her to forget thier own troubles by listening to her. she earned her keep on many a boat and in many a town by plying her natural ability to lie and create epic stories that brought the listeners out of thier dispair. Recently she has landed in the port of Bel Akhana waiting for her next journey and has found a much larger and intellignet audience. Of course the cahllenge of entertaining them, as well as the habitual need to lie, has drawn her into a dangerous gambit. Nightly she pretends to be a gnome and suckers in the onlookers who have never seen one, alive at least. A gnome pretending to be a halfling pretending to be a gnome, maybe her finest performances or maybe her biggest mistake. Only time will tell...
