[QUOTE="Charwoman Gene, post: 7272362, member: 5044"] Atallia Trait: Atallia is reserved and graceful in speech and movement. She's gone through a lot of upheaval in her life, and forms bonds quick but also lets them go easily. Ideal: Freedom for those who have wronged no one. Bond: Her mentor and family still live under her original master's control. Flaw: She tends to default to the simplest answer to a problem, without learning the intricacies. Personality: Atallia is cool and unruffled. Her emotions run deep and true but she demonstrates her feelings by acting, not talking. Background: Born into service to a cruel fire Genasi noble house, Atallia learned to keep herself centered in difficult situations all her life. Her duties were in the kitchen, which gave her soem measure of free time between meals. Her loyalty wass never suspect, as her parents and sisters were also held by the master. Her training as a monk came when another slave, a gnome named Maarten the Quick, thought she had potential and trained her in secret. Her relationship with Maarten was a strange one. Though a slave, he was a high status one and had comparable freedom. He singled her out for special treatment but was distant and cold. In addition to martial arts and contemplation Maarten trained her as a spy and infiltrator. She was "gifted" to a rival noble house, trained to ingratiate herself and find out their secrets. She befriended Zallakien, a drow mercenary, and spent quite some time with him. She was betrayed as a spy when caught by Zaretha, Zallakien's commander and domineering sister.
