Abrielle was born on the island of Evermeet, home of the Sun Elves and one of the great bastions for Elven power on Toril. She lived in the capital city of Leuthilspar, and is the daughter of Lysanthir Elaéyadar, a Mage of some renown and avid researcher of the arcane arts, and Chasianna Elaéyadar, a devout priestess of Corellon Larethian. Abrielle was taught to worship and love the patron of the Elven pantheon by her mother, even though she was never devout enough to the religious practices to show promise as a Cleric.
Growing up on Evermeet was not as fun as one might think, for Abrielle's unusually cheerful demeanor and taste for song, dance and arts were not common amongst her people, and her family in particular. Her parents had been steering her in what they deemed the right direction, and wanted her to harness her innate power as a Sorceress. As soon as she was old enough to wander around, Abrielle started exploring the island in search of entertainment and new friends. Her father's associates however, all serious and stern Mages, knew her and frequently escorted her back home before she could get "distracted from her important studies".
It wasn't long before the young Elven girl taught herself how to disguise her appearance, so she could elude her mentors and frequent inns and taverns where she could practice the arts of music and dance. She avoided places like Throleatha's Public House and in stead enjoyed establishments that had a myriad of races as their patrons. Abrielle befriended some of the entertainers in her favorite taverns and honed her skills with the fiddle and dance.
Out of her lessons she only paid attention to the history of Faerun and it's noble houses, dreaming of the life of an adventurer or the exciting political intrigue of a high court.
As she grew in to the Elvish adolescence, Abrielle became a beautiful female with flowing hair the colour of molten copper and bright green eyes, that contrasted with her light brown skin. Her slender body and delicate features gathered the attention of both lads and men alike. However the rules of Sun Elven courtship were all too pompous and boring for her, and in time the girl learned how to lead her potential suitors by the nose with charm and wit alone.
Four years before her entry in to Sun Elven adulthood, Abrielle took a bold move and while accompanying one one of her mentors to the mainland, she abandoned her boring life and took up the profession of a traveling Bard. Abrielle had escaped with the clothes on her back, some money and a few magical trinkets that had been on her person at the time, and purchased the rest of her equipment from the first merchant she encountered. Her parents had tried locating her several times trough divination magic and had sent mercenaries to retrieve her, but so far Abrielle has been lucky enough to avoid them. Currently she has just arrived in Harrowdale Town, hoping to evade her father's men by going so far up North.

Description
Fayne is not an attractive man by any means. He is tall and lanky, despite being strong of arm. He wears his stringy, copper-colored hair long. His face is plain, with stern features, and he has two mismatched eyes: one green, and one grey. Fayne is not concerned with fashion; generally his garb consists of roughspun wools, leather, and bits and pieces of armor for protection.
Personality
Fayne is stern, hard, and stoic. He is not a social person, being quiet and withdrawn, though he is adept and reading the features and emotions of others. When he does feel the need to speak, he is laconic. He generally believes that words cause more problems than they are worth.
Background
Fayne hails from the city of Innarlith, on the eastern tip of the Lake of Steam. Fayne, born William Fayne, suffered from a horrible childhood. An abused child whose parents didn't want him, they eventually abandoned him to the streets. Fayne fell in with a bad crowd: a gang of street toughs bent on muggings, theft, racketeering and extortion.
When the leader of these thugs (an elf by the name of Eluvian) discovered that Fayne was actually quite intelligent and had an aptitude for magic, he took it upon himself to help the youth develop his skills. His plans were to use Fayne as his own personal bodyguard; as such, he taught the youth how to mix magic and steel, and how to keep an eye open for those that might deceive him. Fayne proved adept at his training, things were going well, and he was finally starting to believe that he had a place in the world.
And then the Ransar Pristoleth started his campaign against crime in the city. Fayne's gang was crushed, and Pristoleth set his agents to hunting down the remaining members of the group and exterminating them. Fayne did the only thing he could think of to survive...he fled.
Leaving his home, Fayne took the Golden Road north to the metropolis of Arrabar in Chondath. Knowing that agents of Pristoleph could still be on his trail, he spent only a short time there, booking passage on a spice ship. The destination didn't matter, and a few short weeks later, he found himself disembarking in Harrowdale, mostly broke and without any idea of where he was or what he was going to do.
Being in the right place at the right time allowed Fayne to join a group of adventurers and guardsmen assigned to investigate a gnoll raid...a short time later, the gnolls were slain, and Fayne found himself in a bit better financial situation. With a pouch of coins and rumors of another job, the duskblade headed off in search of further adventure within Harrowdale.

10 days Feed (100 lb) (5 sp)
Waterskin (for the Mule) (4 lb) (1 gp)
Total Weight Carried by Selua: 31.5 lb (Light load)
Total Weight Carried by the Mule: 181 lb (Light load)
About the Mule
The mule's name is the elven word for "Dwarf", as in "stubborn as a..." Selua has taught it the following tricks with her Handle Animal skill: Come, Heel, Stay, Work, and Perform. It has one more trick that it could learn, but she hasn't taught it any more, yet.
Vitals
Age: 127
Height: 5'
Weight: 87
Appearance: Selua has the look of a wolf about her, with silvery blond hair that falls about her shoulders and down her back wildly, yet untangled and deep green eyes. Her skin is a bronzed copper from spending most of her time in the sun.
Background
Selua's birth was blessed by Sehanine Moonbow. So said her parents, both of whom were Lythari wood elves from a small wood elven clan that once dwelled in Cormanthor, near Harrowdale.
Selua was destined to become lythari herself, but, just a few scant years before she was deemed an adult and ready for the ritual, a raiding party of gnolls attacked her clan, nearly decimating it and killing both her parents.
The handful of survivors chose vengeance over common sense and tracked the gnolls back to their lair. Selua doesn't know what became of them as she, in a moment of grief and doubt, looked to the moon and Sehanine for guidance and was granted a vision of the moon's light acting as a beacon, guiding her way. The moon's light led her to Harrowdale.
Selua is still prone to bouts of melancholy and throws herself into her devotion to Sehanine, fasting and meditating for long periods. She tends to avoid people and can come off as aloof at times.
