Corvas Esy'Nirinth

Corvas Esy'Nirinth was a female Drow and traveling performer known for her acts that combined both acrobatics and magic.
==Appearance and Personality==
Corvas was tall and demure, both talented and softspoken. She had long, black, knee-length hair but was known to wear a variety of wigs for performances, as well as abundant jewelry. In particular, she had a gilded flower pendant given to her by an admirer.
==The Starlight Curios==
After being smuggled out of the Underdark, Corvas was picked up by Professor Elwyn, an eccentric but kindhearted Genasi who was forming her own circus troupe “Professor Elwyn and the Starlight Curios” in Faerun. Elwyn passed on knowledge of acrobatics along with trickery to Corvas, who became her ward. Corvas slowly became more popular in her troupe, and was eventually taught magic to create a new act. This drew in much attention from all throughout Faerun, leading them to perform as private entertainment for many noble houses, including the Porterro, Grendrey, and the Davendarc families in Tethyr.
After 59 years traveling with this troupe, tragedy struck and a fire swept through a town they were performing in, burning down their tents and carts, and killing several of her fellow performers and breaking apart the troupe. Professor Elwyn also perished in this fire, and the investigation of the fire led authorities to believe it was started intentionally, with suspicion of foul play.
She explored on her own for 37 years, occasionally joining other troupes for short periods of time. During these years she also contemplated the deaths of her troupe, attempting to find out who could have started the fire. She had no luck in discovering the culprit and eventually gave up searching.
==Sworn to Service==
Upon joining the group, Corvas met Rienn, a seemingly re-animated statue. To her surprise, he pledged his service to her. In return, she vowed to help him uncover his memories and his past. Through the Ballad of the Rose, Corvas and the prophesied uncovered his identity as Captain Malcer Dragonvale, as well as his reason for serving her. Corvas was the name of Malcer's betrothed from life, causing her to feel immense guilt as well as the sense that she had been lying to him.
==The Mercenaries==
Eventually, Corvas would discover the truth behind Professor Elwyn's death. She would learn from Idra Nortenthern, a former member of the Vanguard of the Veil, that Corvas's own grandmother had hired them to attack her troupe but had failed to kill Corvas herself. As a result, Corvas's lover at the time, Oliver, set out to find them, only to be killed by them upon his discovery. Corvas eventually made the journey to visit his grave.
