==Background==
Kisaiya's life was what you would expect for a Tiefling in the broken lands: transient, dangerous and wearying. Her kind nature and cooking skills often won over villages for a short time, but as soon as any misfortune occured, such as sickness or crop failure, she would be blamed and driven out. Eventually, she decided to strike out on her own, away from the Dark Plains, to find somewhere more tolerant of her race. Unfortunately, having little knowledge of the other lands of Athesia, she headed west into the Broken Lands, where she met Aedius, a mad elf who captured her and threw her into a magical prison along with a lightning elemental. The prison kept them in a kind of conscious suspended animation, and from the outside looked like a magical box. Kisaiya stayed in this box for ten years, during which she learned to create her own form of lightning magic under the tutelage of her fellow prisoner. Whether the elf then forgot about his captives or the box was stolen from him is unclear, but after changing hands many times it ended up in the possesion of Merric Thunderlute, due to being left as payment for a bar tab. Once he was over the initial disapointment that the box did not contain treasure, Merric allowed Kisaiya to work in his kitchen, where her exceptional talent made her many friends, especially amongst the God-Cursers.
Kisaiya is naturally kind, with a tendency to mother those she feels protective of. Her protective streak can quickly get violent, especially if she feels the weak are being targeted by the strong. Her years of persecution in the Dark Plains have left her extremely trusting and grateful to anyone who shows her kindness, as she still expects people to hate her on sight due to her appearance. This has the potential to get her into trouble, especially as she is fairly guiless and dislikes lying. She is straightforward and honest, and doesn't understand those that aren't, another trait which will probably end up getting her into trouble.
Events Since Joining Athesia
Dead Wastes - After journeying to the underworld of the Dead Wastes, and finding many happy and unpersecuted Tieflings there, Kisaiya has become fascinated with this place, returning several times.
Deva - Kisaiya was very involved with the ascention of the Deva and the events surrounding the memory machine. She feels great sympathy for their race, espcially those that have become corrupted.
Fire - Kisaiya had never developed her inherent flame powers as they were viewed with such hatred and suspicion in the Dark Plains. Despite this, she tried to use them to help her friends during the quest to forge a weapon to wound Fenrir. This did not go well, leaving her wounded and even more reluctant to use them.
Fenrir Wolf - There are rumours that Kisaiya's cooking is so good, it even tempted the great God himself, and was used to lure him into a trap. These rumours have not been confirmed or denied, but Merric has started putting "Approved by Fenrir himself!" on the menus at his bar...
Athesian Tea Party - Due to her long imprisonment, Kisaiya fell behind on important teas available in Athesia. Therefore, she has chosen to join the Athesian Tea Party in exploring Athesia in search of new and interesting tea. She also gains news of interesting tea through working at the bar, where people from all over Athesia come and go. If you are interested in sampling any of these teas, or think you have tea which the society may be interested in, feel free to contact one of its members, who will happily share a cup with you.
==Significant Relationships==
Merric Thunderlute
The first person Kisaiya met when she finally escaped from the box, Kisaiya sees him as a kindly benefactor as he allowed her to work in his bar. Merric may not feel quite the same way as he was expecting the box to contain treasure.
Jak'kar Au'Brai
Jak asked Kisaiya to join him on her first Athesian mission, to free slaves. She is grateful for his kindness, and they made firm friends during the journey. He later asked her to join the Athesian Tea Club, which she accepted.
Ceryndra Silverflame
Ceryndra remembers Kisaiya from the Dark Plains before she was trapped. She had assumed the young tiefling had been killed like so many of their kind, and so was glad to find her alive.
Lightning elemental
After spending ten years together, Kisaiya's fellow prisoner understandably wanted some space. Kisaiya hasn't started worrying about his whereabouts yet, but if he doesn't reappear soon she may start to wonder...
