*"Yay! Now we can have all the bath sex in the world!"*

**Bailis Shadowstep** is a member of the Adventurer's Guild. She lives in spacious house outside of Phandalin.

**STILL A WORK IN PROGRESS!!!**

## Appearance

Bailis is a pale-skinned Ghostwise halfling, standing at 3'4" and weighing 38 lbs. Her large eyes a beautiful hazel. Her blonde (formerly black) hair, her most noticeable feature, is very poofy.

She's most often seen wearing her "shadow garb", a black and dark blue, loose-fitting garment that helps her blend into the shadows more easily. However she does have a beautiful navy blue dress that she wears for special occasions.

She wields a Vicious Wakizashi (Japanese Shortsword), which she treasures more than any other weapon

## Personality

Before, and for a time after joining the guild, Bailis was cold, paranoid, and scared, spending the first few days as a member hiding and observing the other guild members from a distance to see if they were agents of the Organization. She was calculating and logical, her every move and decision made with her own well being in mind.

However, upon actually interacting with the members, she grew an affinity for them and the guild's mission, showing that deep down, she had great emotion. When she fell in love with Shi'nala Teuvaie and later, Leanna Whiteheart, she became more relaxed and happy, and could often be found at tavern drinking whiskey, which she had grown fond of wolfing down shots at a time. However, she always tries to keep her head on swivel, usually not making stupid mistakes she'll regret.

However, whenever she went on a mission, or something or someone threatened the lives of her loved ones, she would go back to her old, cold self, and would attempt to swiftly and mercilessly destroy any and all threats.

## History

### Background

#### **Early Life and Betrayal of Organization**

When she was only an infant, the girl who become known as Bailis was kidnapped from her parents and taken to a abandoned dwarvern fortress, where she was trained by a shadowy Organization to be a deadly weapon against its enemies. She was trained in the art of moving silently and killing without respite. By the age of ten, she killed her first target and by the time she was twenty, she was the greatest assassin in the Organization, earning the codename, Shadowstep. During When she was twenty-five, she was sent on a mission to kill a supposedly corrupt duke and his son. During her mission, she discovered that the duke was in fact very charitable, and that the son was merely a child. Refusing to shed any more innocent blood, she disavowed the Organization, and ran away, taking on the son's name, Bailis, as her own. For two years, she ran from the Organization and the assassins they sent after her, only surviving thanks to Adran feeding her information on their movements, and sheer luck and grit.

#### **Waterdeep**

Just outside of the city of Waterdeep, Bailis was on the run from assassins of the Organization. She was tired, wounded and bleeding. Refusing to let herself be taken alive, she slit her wrists and allowed the void to take her. She later woke up in an unknown strangers bed, who had nursed her to health. She left a few coins and went to hide out on her own. Eventually, she caught wind of a Adventurers Guild that was in town. She decided that signing up and staying for a few months would both earn her enough coin to keep moving on and protect her from the Organization's lackeys.

### AG History

#### **Early Career and Shi'nala**

After sneaking her paperwork into the Waterdeep Guildmaster's office (by complete mistake), Bailis spent the first few days hiding and observing her future comrades, trying to decipher who might be on the Organization's payroll.
