Dame Roz Delysa is the 3rd child of Barron Alfonz Delysa, a formor vassel of the house of Decados. Like many other members of the disgraced house of Delysa, Roz Delysa strives to restore her family's lost standing within the eyes of the minor houses of nobility while attempting to forge new alliances within the great houses. Unfortunately for Roz, her attempt to gain favor within the house of Decados has been marked with humiliation at the hands of those she sought acceptance from.
During her time within the social circles of the house of Decados, Roz would have earned a favorable reputation if she were not despised for her family's betrayal of the House of Decados during the Emperor Wars. On many occasions she has proved that although she is a charming and attractive woman, she is also fierce but merciful duelist; an unsettling combination that only angered those low ranking Decados nobles who she defeated in while dueling. Unfortunately, Roz has also proved herself to be both naive and quite impulsive; two traits which her rivals often exploit.
Ironically, although Roz Delysa's joining of the Company of the Phoenix may in fact aid her on her personal quest for glory, this was not the reason for her joining the company. Instead, Roz Delysa was convinced to join by Peregryn Decados*, who claimed that the only way Roz could gain the affection of his brother Ellex would be to prove herself worthy of carrying the name Decados. Unbeknownst to Roz, both Peregryn and his brother Ellex Decados believe that the Company of the Pheonix was about to start on a fool's errand which couldl only lead to the eventual death and destruction of its members.

* I'm assuming that the rumor mill within the great noble houses is extremely efficiant, and that the Peregryn Decados was easily able to appeal to Roz's impulsive nature.
