The arts had always been her strong point. She seemed especially talented, even for an elf, in the use of instruments. While almost every true elf is expected to be familiar with singing, poetry, drama, painting, and instruments by the time they reach there second decade it is rare that an elf would choose one of these as there profession. Lalamil is an exception to this rule. Her career first started in the elven corp. the elven military organization on the island designed to defend even cities against the many raids from the orcish tribes that still held strongholds on the island. In the thick of battle even the most controlled warrior has been know to loose his sense of direction and objective. Enter the corp. sounders. There job was twofold first to inspire courage into the troops. The second job was to issue orders to the troops through bugle calls. After several fights lalamil became a regular in the corp. She was respected by the warriors and learned tricks of the trade from almost everyone in the barracks. It looked as if she would have a career in the military if the massacre of 1198 did not occur. The entire fort was raised, and the majority of troops killed in there sleep. lalamil managed to survive after she was able to fast talk on of the Orc commanders. She was taken to the Orc camps as a prisoner of war. Once again luck was on her side and she managed to escape with a few other prisoners a few months later.     The next few months went by on an empty stomach and cold nights sleeping outside. Finally lalamil secured a job working as a cook, from there she worked a variety of odd jobs traveling across the world. This went on until she managed to secure a job playing as a indenture minstrel for a local noble. It was then that her musical ability came to the surface again. After a few years in the service of the noble she paid off her debt and decided to travel the world as a singer and performer. Her first possession of any real worth was a wonderfully crafted lute that she managed to acquire off a gnome craftsman in the city of Crucipolis. It used a rather innovative 18 string design to produce a wonderfully rich sound. For about two decades she saw the world paying for passage on ships by either performing or by earning money in towns that she decided to stop at. This lasted until luck decided to take a bad turn on her and all of Arius. She found herself in the fort town of Rogan. Her third stay in the town she started hearing rumors of undead. A week later the entire countryside was engaged in constant combat against a gruesome, tiresome, and fearsome enemy. Seeing that even the old, young and disabled were doing all that they could for the town she lalamil trained by the elven corp. of Krondalay should do her part to save the living. First it was just as a medic or a jack of all trades, and performer then when she was more accustom to the group she donned armor, long bow, and sounding horn and went out to join the fight.       Harvey: lalamil will have been in Rogan throughout the war and its aftermath functioning both as a defender and performer. Being a rather open person she would have know the majority of the veterans on a first name basis. I assume that you would like the connection between the characters to be more substantial that this. I was thinking that lalamil could be the “sounder” for your squad semi fighting alongside you in the war. Perhaps they were neighbors in the town itself, or they could have another connection all together. Any of this sound interesting to you?</blockquote>
