Character Information

Background

Roswyn was born to Harrdee and Glyndel d'Sivis, mid-ranking members of House Sivis, ten minutes ahead of her fraternal twin, Pok. While both siblings were extremely bright and talented, from an early age it was clear that Roswyn was much more extroverted than her shy brother. This tendency grew even stronger when Roswyn manifested the Mark of Scribing at age 11, and her family's hopes and expectations focused on her at Pok's expense. Roswyn enjoyed the attention, but remained close to her brother, standing up for him when outsiders picked on him, and trying to help him out of his shell whenever she could.

After graduating with honor from the college of Aureon's Holt at the Library of Korranberg, Roswyn entered the Speaker's Guild, serving as a speaking stones operator for a time. But she quickly grew tired of that boring duty, and manuevered for a position with the diplomatic mission to Breland.

She found an opportunity as an assistant negotiator post with the mission by agreeing to work with the Trust of Zilargo, the gnome nation's intelligence agency (some call them secret police). Her mission was to keep an eye on certain of her fellow diplomats whose loyalty was in question, as well as gathering information about the Brelish nobles.

She performed the double mission with distinction. Promoted to full negotiator at the tender age of 28, she was present when the Zilargo Ambassador consumated the formal alliance between Zilargo and Breland in 962 YK. One important obstacle to the alliance was removed when Roswyn obtained evidence that a certain stubborn Brelish duke had an inordinate fondness for his hunting hounds. She also exposed a ring of Blood of Vol spies among the diplomatic mission's house servants.

In the later years of the Last War, Roswyn continued to serve both the House and the Trust. For the House, she worked as a mediator, travelling all around Eberron to work out problems with personnel and contract disputes with the House's many customers. For the Trust, she served as a corligano ("roving eye"), using both her arcane and verbal skills to infiltrate sites of interest and recruit foreign assets. Her success with the Brelish duke was no fluke, as she turned out to have quite a gift for blackmail. She kept tabs on her brother, here and there greasing the wheels for his career as a courier, secure that he could not ever surpass her shooting-star progress.

With the war over (for now, at least), Roswyn is looking for a new ladder to climb. She still has ties to the Trust but is now more of a reserve agent than an active one. She has grown interested in the work of Tasker's Dream, House Sivis' new magical "think tank" as a possible route to increasing her personal power and status. She has cultivated contacts there, one of whom has tipped her off about a possible "nexus" or "convergence" in the Prophecy occuring some time in the near future, in Sharn, perhaps in or around a certain tavern...

Appearance

Roswyn is quite pretty, with prominent dimples, golden-brown skin, and a lean and graceful figure. She keeps her pale green hair groomed into three upswept spikes, with errant curls that escape over her forehead. She wears a tunic made from magic shimmering silk, a magic cloak embroidered with the Sivis coat of arms, and silver sandals. The tunic has short sleeves and scoop neck that reveals the Mark of Scribing on her left cheek and shoulder. She generally eschews jewelry, but decorates her clothes and hair with ribbons bearing bright colors in subtle patterns.

Age: 65 Gender: Female Height: 3'5" Weight: 55 lbs.

Personality

Alignment: Unaligned

Roswyn is outgoing, witty, and pleasant. She is an excellent conversationalist, as befits one from her House and bearing the Mark of Scribing, good at drawing out information from others.

Her early successes, combined with the ability to talk her way out of almost anything, has made Rosywn supremely self-confident, perhaps a bit over-confident. She is very ambitious and fundamentally self-centered. However, she is also very well composed and self-controlled, so others rarely see behind her mask.

Hooks

• During her work with the Trust, Roswyn made some enemies, though most of them don't know who she really was. But some do, and others might find out. Someone she blackmailed might come after her.
• The Trust could call her back into active service for a mission. And/or, smart folks in the Trust (or House Sivis' "Oversight") might have recognized her ambition and start to worry about her loyalty.
• House Sivis could also give her a mission or task, possibly relating to competitors or upstart guilds in Sharn, or a straight-up mediation or diplomatic job.

Kicker

Roswyn wants to achieve personal power and status by exploiting the Draconic Prophecy, and believes that something related to the Prophecy will play out soon in Sharn. (Considering how many PC's have dragonmarks, this is a pretty safe bet!)
