Kasidrek

Kasidrek is a Fiend Spawn bard who was involved with the resistance to the Scientarian Empire, Kalderus, and the Infernal Wars. 
=== Early Life ===
Kasidrek's origins are a mystery even to herself. Her earliest memories are of scrounging for food in Kurosekai, seemingly yet another abandoned orphan from some union that resulted in a fiend spawn. Eventually she gained skill as a singer and dancer, and was able to make a meagre living performing in the streets and taverns. Eventually she found that taking on the occasional bit of criminal activities could be lucrative, and was able to delve into bardic magic to help make her roguish talents blossom. 
=== The Ancient Horrors and the Scientarian Revolution ===
When the Scientarians came to Kurosekai in 1 asr, Kasidrek left the city. It was well known that they Scientarians were persecuting the arcane magic users in the world, and while she had never lived outside the city, it seemed safer than staying in an active warzone with the anti-magic zealots. She needed to find work, and found herself taking on a job given by the Institute of Magical Learning to help track down and kill one of the few remaining vampires. Travelling with Kusetare, Trigwocket, Valdemarr, and eventually Geylin, they successfully took out the Vampire King, Werewolf King, and Mummy King, but fell afoul of corrupt officials within the Institute and were slated for execution. Kasidrek was saved only by the timely assassination of the archmage of the Institute by Adele Tellumnar, allowing her and her friends to escape. The group fled to Nuhaven, one of the few places in Gernon that the Scientarians had not yet reached.
=== Resistance and a Call to Arms ===
Kasidrek left Nuhaven about a year after her arrival, deciding that she wanted to return to Kurosekai, and joined the anti-scientarian resistance growing in the city. Deeply in love with her magical talents as a bard, she hated how destructive the Scientarians were being towards magic in general and the artistic world in particular. She was instrumental in keeping her old friends alive when Marisol Tellumnar had the group trapped, and was the one who assassinated the Scientarian's puppet mayor, Nehrun Savoy. Her position compromised and the Scientarians out for her blood, Kasidrek fled again to Nuhaven until the next opportunity to help in the fight presented itself. 
=== The New Horrors and the Children of Kalderus ===
Kasidrek joined the fight against the Spawn of Kalderus in Quata. But these efforts were not enough to stop the demon's return, which she assisted in facing down despite the enormity of the threat.
