Briza

Briza is a female drow rogue, who is about 206~7 years old. She grew up on the streets of North Cross as an urchin and has no recollection of her birth family or past life. Life has been rough on her and until now, everyone who was close to her ended up leaving or dying at some point. Due to a lack of consistent positive role models, Briza has poor emotional regulation and impulse control.

This is the first time she has some kind of hope that things won't go downhill, while usually a pessimist she may be becoming a bit of an optimist. Also, she is a flirt and sleeps with a ton of people, but has a budding possible relationship which is also giving her some hope. She is very materialistic and also a kleptomaniac, but she is growing slowly as a character.

## Description

### Appearance

Briza is 5'1, 120ish pounds, and appears comparable to humans in their mid-twenties. Slender but muscular, she is nimble and stealthy. Her build if similar to that of an aerial athlete or a climber. She is extremely dexterous, can climb easily and is great at hiding. Briza has been above ground for over 200 years and doesn't have a sensitivity to light and her skin isn't the traditional dark purple most drows have. Her skin is a lighter white purple, with almost a hue to it. Briza's hair is silver and long; she usually wears it in a ponytail/braid, like the link to the picture I have included. Briza had different coloured eyes, but she got lycanthropy at some point and almost died. Her eyes are now demon yellow animal-like eyes. I wasn't given much more of a description apart from that for my eyes, although I feel like the pupils may look like the link I have included.

She doesn't have any visible scars on her face, no facial hair, no piercings, no tattoos and she doesn't wear jewelry. Her face is more angular with her eyes being the main focus. She doesn’t wear makeup and apart from fixing up her hair, she isn’t focused on being pretty. Her ears are pointed like regular elf ears but she doesn’t try to hide them or point them out, they are just kind of ears.

She has sad eyes that have seen a lot of loss but have also hardened to the reality of the world. They don't give a lot away but you can sense the pain that may exist behind the exterior. Her expression is usually a slight grimace, kind of like resting bitch face but a bit kinder. Kind of similar to the artwork link I'll include that I used as the original visual representation to come up with Briza.

### Equipment and clothing

She is a walking armoury but her weapon of choice is dual wielding daggers, these are holstered to her waist. She also has a scimitar strapped to her back along with a crossbow.

She is in studded leather armour, that is lightning resistant. She doesn't wear a helmet, use a shield or have any kind of holy symbol or spellcasting focus. Briza does wear a cloak, it's called the "Cloak of Shadow" and it makes her extra stealthy. The armour is dark leather and the cloak is also a dark colour. I’m leaning towards the cloak probably being a deep dark purple where the leather is more blackish.

Briza has her daggers sheathed on her waist, one on each side. She also has a pouch on one side and a bag of holding on the other. Her studded leather armour is more form-fitting and does show the curves of her body. She doesn't wear gloves or gauntlets.

### Abilities

While being very young when she ended up on the material place, Briza is still able to do some drow magic like Dancing Lights, Darkness and Faerie Fire.

## Before Twilight Rose

### Shadowfell

Briza is pretty sure she was born in the Shadowfell. She has no recollection of the time she spent there.

### Material Plane

#### Pet Rock

After she had realized she was lost, she picked up a rock from the ground and headed towards people. The rock is the only thing she has that remotely connects her to her home. Throughout her life, she has done her best to never lose it. It's her most prized possession.

#### North Cross

*All roads lead to North Cross.*

After she realized she needed to find shelter, Briza started to move and found herself in North Cross. This will end up being the city she spends most of her life in.

In the early days, Briza was alone, the sun hurt and no one was willing to help her. Trying to survive she resorted to stealing and making a home wherever she could for the night. She wasn't doing great but she was getting by, and she was able to do this for about 20 years.

Will add more in the future!

## Twilight Rose

Will add more when she hopefully stops dying constantly.

## Songs

How does a bastard, orphan daughter of a drow,

dropped in the middle of a forgotten spot in the overworld,

by providence, impoverished, in squalor, grow up to be a hero and a scholar?

Well her father

Couldn't bother to be a farther, so she

got a lot farther by working a lot harder, by being a lot smarter

by being a self-starter, but by 114, she'd run into trouble with the city charter

I thought I'd see Lily on the other side,

but I see every Drow on the other side,

they're watching me from the other side,

teach me how to make it stop,
