[QUOTE="Erudite, post: 2669131, member: 31400"] [b]Anassa the Medusa[/b] [I]Unlike most medusa, Anassa was not very interested in establishing herself in the 'family business*', wrestling for power, eating her sisters, and making her name great. Well, okay, she did want to be famous. And maybe a pretty trinket or three. Picking up her bow, she headed for Sharn (and incidently foiling a sister's plan to eat her), where she at least knew that she could live without being beheaded. While living there, she met up with (two of the other characters), who helped her figure out how to live among non-Medusa. It was rough going, but eventually she got to the point where she could leave her veil at home and not have her hair attempt to poison people who cut her off on the street. An expedition to Q'barra made sense at the time, with a reward involved (and the arrival in Sharn of a sister who wanted to make sure that when Anassa left the 'family business', she did so [I]permanently[/I]), so off they went, made money, and were happily imbibing at the Reptile when things went sour. Now her hair is pissed off, and the rest of her isn't feeling so hot either...[/I] * think a female medusa mafia.
