Alias Alias was a created construct that had been given true life . She was not a natural human being , but instead the construct of an alliance between several powerful groups . She became a sell - sword who fought for good causes . History . Alias ' s origins were with Finder Wyvernspur , a bard and hero , who feared the loss of his great artistic works at the end of his life . In order to prevent that , he attempted to create a clone of himself , but he failed in that endeavor , killing one of his assistants and injuring another , leading the Harpers to erase his very name from existence and banish him to the Citadel of White Exile . However , this erasure was not total , and a powerful sorceress , Cassana of Westgate , learned of Finder ' s actions , and sought him out , in order to remake his creation . Allied together , Finder ; Cassana ; her former lover , the lich Zrie Prakis ; the Cult of Moander ; and the Fire Knives , a band of assassins , attempted to create their own clone , Alias , intended to be a magical servant , spy and assassin . Cassana created Alias ' body , made in her own image , while Zrie Prakis made it immortal . The Fire Knives provided most of the manpower and " acquisitions " required for the spells cast by Zrie and Cassana , while the cult of Moander provided the energy needed to bring Alias to life . However , the construct lacked a spirit and soul to bring her fully to life . Thus , Cassana contacted a powerful demon ic beholder , Phalse , through what she assumed was its agent . Phalse was charged with bringing a pure soul , an innocent who would be sacrificed to bring Alias to life . This pure soul turned out to be Dragonbait , the saurial paladin . However , Alias awoke before the sacrifice was carried out . Finder , fearing for his creation ' s purity , helped free her and Dragonbait . Dragonbait fled to Suzail with Alias in tow and left her at the Hidden Lady inn . When she awoke , she had no memory of what had transpired . Later , Alias found herself changing the songs she would sing in inns and taverns , turning them into songs about destroying the land and otherwise desecrating it . Eventually , it was discovered that Alias had become a " soul singer , " a type of saurial oracle who could make known the status of saurials in distant areas . The soul songs Alias had been singing were warnings of the return of the god Moander . After reuniting with her friends and learning the truth of Finder ' s history regarding her creation , Alias was instrumental in helping Finder make the final steps toward destroying Moander . Afterwards , having apparently aided the displaced saurials to create a new home in the Lost Vale , Alias began taking missions from the Harpers . Clones . However , several additional versions of Alias had been made by Phalse . These clones disappeared upon Phalse ' s defeat , teleported to parts unknown , but some of them were later identified . Appearance . Alias was a beautiful young woman . She was tall at 5 ft 10 ″ ( 1 . 7 m ) , with reddish - blonde hair and striking green eyes . Her most unique feature were the elaborate magical tattoos that covered her right forearm from wrist to elbow . Previously , these were a set of twisting blue runes that represented her creators , namely : With their defeat , they became a simple swirling of thorns and waves , ending with a rose at the wrist . She typically wore simple leathers . Possessions . She was known to have magic chain mail and a magical sword . Abilities . Alias had the magical ability to speak to the saurial paladin Dragonbait . She had a permanent " misdirection " spell effect on herself and it extended to any in her company .
