History

Nevarra Malain has every right to be bitter, angry, and depressed - only she isn't, and she would be very confused if you told her she should be.

Nevarra was born to a Count Nathaniel Malain and his wife, Brianna. What Nathaniel was not aware of until the girl's birth was that Brianna had been having an affair with a friend of the family, an elvish sorcerer. Nevarra's father kicked Brianna out of the house Nevarra's birth, and Nevarra was given to a wet nurse.

Nevarra proved to be much more than her father or his servants were expecting. Precocious, curious, and surprisingly discerning, Nevarra made a habit of asking odd questions, spying on her elders, and generally disorienting and concerning others. Her father tried to instill discipline into his energetic daughter, but she'd have none of it; she gave servants the slip when they tailed her, broke out of her room on numerous occassions, and on one memorable night, decided that the time to experiment with her sexuality was with her father one room away.

The attributes that made her odd and disconcerting, however, were also a source of great pride and frustration to her father, who wasn't sure how to feel about the wild half-elven child. When she began manifesting magical abilities, he insisted that she sit down with a teacher, a request that she promptly twisted to her liking - she used some of his money to hire a dance instructor. Finally driven to the point of frustration, Nathaniel gave up on trying to control his daughter and retired from politics to try and enjoy life.

On the eve of her sixteenth birthday, Nevarra's mother and blood father returned to claim Nevarra by right of blood. Nevarra protested, but they tried to force the issue. The resulting battle nearly killed Nathaniel and ended only when Nevarra threw her mother out of a fourth-floor window, forcing her elven father to save her.

Nevarra's father asked her to leave home after that, a request that Nevarra reluctantly agreed to. Packing up her possessions, Nevarra set out to see the world.

Build: Female Half-Elf Fighter 2/Warmage 4/Rogue 2, with an emphasis placed on area-of-effect attacks. Nevarra has consistently cross-classed into Perform (Dance).

Personality: Despite her familial issues, Nevarra is a very sunny, curious person. She has no shame whatsoever, asking awkward or personal questions with the same ease with which she'd ask about the weather. She smiles all the time, cracks jokes even (and especially) in high-stress situations such as combat, and remains firmly bi-curious despite repeated attempts to pin down a sexual preference. Nevarra always tries new things, even if she looks stupid doing them - she's accidentally poisoned herself more than once that way.
