[QUOTE="Goddess FallenAngel, post: 1565916, member: 11434"] Okay, I didn't play the original, but would really like to get in on this one. As requested here is a brief character background. I would like to work in as knowing one of the other (existing) characters, but am not sure if anyone is interested. [b][u]T'aria: half-fiend rogue[/u][/b] [b][i]History: [/i][/b]T'aria grew up on the streets of one of the least savory areas of the city. Having no memory of her parents, and having the phrase “cursed spawn of the lower planes” flung at her many times, she was forced to do what she could to survive as it was clear that no help was forthcoming. Most of her childhood was spent in a struggle of survival, of attempting not to be noticed by those stronger than she, by living off of the scraps of others, and stealing from those who would not care, or would not notice. Somehow, she escaped the notice of the Thieves’ Guild in until she was 25, when she made the mistake of lifting a fat purse from one of the higher-ranking members of the Guild. The guild member, surprised at the young cambion’s audacity and self-taught skill (cambion being the name half-fiends such as herself were called), he sponsored her into the Guild.
