Born in Resthold, the House Jorasco central holding in Vedykar, Karrnath, Buran was thrown into the Healer’s guild at a young age.  Oldest of three sisters, and expected to help keep her younger siblings in line, she learned responsibility early.  The Last War had raged since well before she was born, and there was little doubt as to where she would end up.  The only question was whether she would aid her house in the holdings or on the battlefield.Buran found herself attracted to the battlefield early on, wanting, perhaps, a small scrap of excitement after the confining rounds of the hospitals.  Also, unlike the majority of her House, she found her talents in healing better channeled through her faith.  Though born in Karrnath, she found the homey faith of the Sovereign Host to be the most fitting to everything she did.Her faith helped sustain her far better than some of her family when she was taken out to the front lines.  Karrnath had suffered drought, famine, and plague in addition to war, and the casualties were simply brutal.  The excitement of snatching lives away from death’s door, of instilling her strength of faith in the soldiers she healed, gave her plenty of motivation to remain.  More than one of her House had to return to Resthold to recover from nerves, but Buran could not stay away, even in the face of overwhelming personal tragedy.The war had taken its toll on soldiers, civilians, and support personnel alike, and though attacks on House Jorasco risked the offenders being entirely cut off from future House services, it didn’t mean that accidents didn’t happen.  Buran’s youngest sister Lirana was a casualty of an attack on one of the camps; burned to death in arcane fire, beyond even Buran’s ability to save.  The House did not casually resurrect anyone, not even their own, and Buran finally had found the limits of her ability to cope with the horrors of the battlefield.For two years, she returned to Resthold, serving in the hospital and acting as an agent for her House.  Then the Day of Mourning came.  Almost against her will, Buran found herself returning to the battlefield, the tragedy too great to ignore, even for those who had heavy hearts and bleeding souls.  To her own surprise, she found she could still find a faint thrill in hearing the stories of the fallen as she worked to pull them away from death.  Each healing also came with some story from her about one or the other of the Host, to lift the spirits of those she tended, and some soldiers began to call her “the preacher,” in a kind of reverent jest.  Her strong faith had returned, in the common man if not the war itself, and as the Treaty of Thronehold was signed, she began to wonder where else someone like her could go.Buran is a little weary of the wholesale slaughter that marked the Last War at times.  Though she enjoys the visceral thrill of healing on the battlefield, she is sick of the endless politics and backstabbing, the shifting alliances and endless rounds of pointless fighting.  She seeks something new.  New people to help, new experiences, new fights, and even new enemies.  Traveling from enclave to enclave, she has worked her way to Sharn, hoping to find a way to the mysterious Xen’drik.  If any place offers a new place to start, that would be it.Buran is a healer and a priest, a diplomat and noble.  Having worked deeply in her family holdings, she knows the pretty words and flattery necessary to address someone of rank (or who thinks they’re of rank), as well as the lore and wisdom of the Host.  She is trained to defend herself and those she heals, though words tend to come first, rather than the sword.  A mercenary healer and faithful priest, with her family’s philosophy of healing only for pay and a noble’s sense of self-worth, Buran is occasionally a bit of a contradiction.  But few in her care would say even a word against her.[/sblock]</blockquote>
