You are denizens of the Underdark, more at home in the depths of Toril then on the surface world. The Underdark is a dank, dismal realm filled with unspeakable evils that would make surface dwellers quake with fear. It is a place where ancient powerful evils battle each other for dominion. It is your home.
To your eyes, the surface world is as light as the Underdark is dark. Here the forces of good hold dominion, banding together to fight the evils of the land. It is the opposite of the Underdark in every way you can imagine. You have always wanted to see the mysterious surface realm, and having some time off, have decided to travel to one of the gateways between the two worlds, Eartheart, the great Gold Dwarf city near the Great Rift.
As you entered the Deep Realm, the caverns controlled by the Gold Dwarves, you felt a palpable change. It was rare to see a drow, a drider, or an illithid. Here the creatures of good abounded. You see humans and elves, dwarves and gnomes, races you have rarely seen before, except as slaves. In your heart you feel a closeness to the good dwarves who hold these caverns, for in your heart you also fight for the cause of good, each for your own reasons.
Now, in Eartheart, you are strange and alien. Children point at you. Adults whisper. As much as you feel a spiritual kinship with these people, this is not your home. In the depths of your soul you realize you must return to the depths of the primeval Underdark, where evil reigns, and death is around every corner.

Skills and Feats: Climb +6, Hide +25, Jump +4, Spot +15; Alertness.
Poison (Ex): Injury, Fortitude DC 11, initial and secondary damage is 1 point of temporary Dexterity damage.
Appearance: Denassa is a small, lithe gloaming of exceptional beauty. Her wings are midnight black, and she keeps them well-groomed. Her own raven hair is long and lustrous, usually pulled up in an elaborate tail so it can spill down her neck in a waterfall of darkness. She wears elegant, form-fitting armor of black snakeskin, and has flowing black tattoos around her neck, wrists, and hands. Her glowing skin makes interesting patterns through these markings. Her eyes are large, and violet-gray. She wears a necklace of silver set with a large purple stone that tends to draw the eyes and a matching circlet around her head. Finally her familiar, a hairy spider she calls Legs, is often seen on her shoulder.
Personality: Denassa is a fairly flighty creature, given to traveling from place to place, meeting new people, and then leaving again. She enjoys being on the move, and is thrilled to meet new people. She considers herself the most beautiful creature around (whether or not it is true), and conducts herself accordingly. She adores her magic, and is pleased to use it wherever she can.
She dislikes ugliness, whether in physical form or in the personalities of others, and tries to avoid those who are “ugly within.” She is given to following her whims, with little thought as to how it will affect those around her. The only one she gives any real consideration to is Legs, her familiar.
Background: Denassa grew up in the upper Underdark, traveling with her family and two sisters from settlement to settlement, bringing news and trade all over the Underdark. As her magical talent grew, she began experimenting with different expressions of magic, learning a wide range of spells and powers.
She left her family on her sixteenth birthday, the lure of places outside their usual trade route being too interesting to resist. Traveling as far and wide as she could, she’s broken a lot of hearts on her journeys thus far. She revels in her magic and freedom, but would be willing to travel with those that share some of her same goals.

Drow is ok. You must be good though. Denassa is CG, Solli is NG. I didn't catch what Rogoth is.

OK. Right now I am thinking Drow Cleric, but I'll have to look things over a bit. I'll get back with a character soon.
