My players want to go down a list of names and ask who she knows. Was she around for the first Silver Ravens movement? Does she know Jackdaw? Was she a Silver Raven?
She knows Guttugger her pet dinosaur and Chuko, her former adventuring chum. She maybe knows that Jackdaw is in Castle Kintargo, because Barzillai Thrune told her that although he doesn't know its significance (SoS p. 9, 29). She established the Sarenrae sect in town and thus has some connection to the Shelynites sheltering its believers.
She's an elf, so her age is not an issue with all of this.
Pretty sure she's not a Silver Raven and doesn't know them, but you could always rule she is to give some more background.

I wasn't in Kintargo at that time the first round of Silver Ravens were doing their thing... wasn't even born at that point in time. If I were or if I did, I woulda let you PCs know earlier! :-)
As for what I learned from Barzilai, as long as I can encourage the PCs to start hitting the targets of opportunity in the next adventure, that's what I'd know. NPCs like me are good sources of "quest giving" stuff to help focus a group of PCs who, all too often, get option paralysis and don't know which of the several quest threads to follow up on at any one time.
And I'm a half-elf, not an elf. Started out as a drow but that's a different story entirely.

In my golarion I pretty much leave out the Mary Sue backstory. That said, Chuko has been a huge favorite at my table and I expect the same from... you.
In my campaign, Tiarese carefully out your tongue and restored it to flesh in order to complete a ritual to come back as a greater banshee instead of a nemhain. She did eat it, yes. Gross. So you will be supernaturally silenced until they can put the witch down a second time.

That's fine, but don't be offended if in my campaign you get your tongue eaten as well. ;-)
And that said, if my "Mary Sue" background inspired you enough to inject your own creativity and passion into your version of the storyline, then I consider my background a success as well.

I hate to disappoint you, but I don't have a tongue (that originally belonged to me, anyway). I probably have a dusty knucklebone somewhere you can chew on if you ready want to.
Honestly I haven't thought up much of a backstory for you. Mary Sue is an unkind and exaggerated way of putting it, sorry. I meant more like the kind of backstory only a PC would have. Maybe I'll just leave it ambiguous...
I'll stop derailing the thread now. Sorry roguerouge!
