Kessa's father was a sorcerer obsessed with necromancy. His experiments to corrupt life to extend his own led him to the distant land of Tian Xia. It was there that he would attempt dark rituals upon the newly born. Not finding the answers he sought, Graullen realized that he would have to start on a child not yet born. His used his dark magics upon his pregnant wife, Hellena, convinced that the key to immortality could be unlocked. His dark arcana had a heavy toll on his wife, leaving her near lifeless. After giving birth, her empty womb was disected by her husband. Graullen believed an even greater opportunity existed for perfecting his formula by using the life creating womb. Fortunately for Hellena, her weakened body gave out before she had to endure too much pain.

While he was thrilled with the effect his work had on his daughter, he had no love in his heart for her. He continued his research on her without compassion. He would happily forfeit her life to find the key to shatter the chains of his mortal coil by becoming a lich. Endless torment of spells and pain became Kessa's world. The years of experimentation left her organs putrified, leaving her sterile. The one thing her father provided for her was training. He felt that a keen mind would be critical to finding the next great discovery. Graullen also saw to her physical needs to ensure her body would not fail as her mother's had. He hired a disgraced monk to oversee her education and physical regiment.

The dhampir had also hoped to learn the dark arts from her father, but she lacked the spark to tame the arcane energies and her father punished her brutally for it. For Graullen it was a set back and a lost opportunity to explore greater necromancy. He soon realized that she could provide no more insights on his personal quest to become undead.

Kessa was finally discarded by Graullen, convinced she was a failure and disgusted by what her father had done to her physical form. She sought out an alchemist to see if science could repair what her father had taken away from her. While she learned much from him, he was unable to provide answers. She has spent the last decade persuing her own alchemical experiments, seeking ways to have a child of her own. Ironically, she has followed her father's dark path of using the bodies and lives of others for her own ends.

Her knowledge of anatomy and surviving the excruciating pain of her has made her a formidible combatant. However, due to her need for living subjects, she has developed a style that disables an opponent rather than kill them.
