Velrisa

Velrisa is a character created by TripleMcWheatie for the Dungeons & Dragons Campaign Just Roll With It. She is currently a Level 8 Cleric.

## Character Details

Velrisa is a young female Tiefling Grave Cleric, who is 5'4, weighs 110 lbs, and possesses light purple skin and short dark hair. She wears armor and carries a Ghost Lantern. As a grave cleric, she helped grant unfortunate souls safe passage into the afterlife. She holds a connection to the spirit world.

Velrisa canonically has thick thighs as mentioned by Grizzly. Grizzly informs that if you search up "Velrisa thighs" you will receive fanart.

## History

As a child, she was disowned by her parents for being a Tiefling. They resented magic, and so she was taken in by her uncle, Ander. Ander helped to teach her the ways of being a cleric.

Later in Arc 2, it is revealed that she grew up in poverty and, as a result, doesn't know how to handle large sums of money or what the proper etiquette is regarding finances.

Velrisa is a follower of the goddess Wee Jas.

## Arc 1

She is first seen boarding a ship to The Great King's Wharf, where she meets the rest of the party. She boards the same ship as Taxi and Br'aad, though she can pay to afford a less shanty ride.

Much later on, she is met with a lost soul who died unfortunately and guides the young boy into the afterlife. This gift of hers is shown again, when the party enters the cathedral to resurrect Sylnan, only to find several more lost souls. Velrisa gives the spirits a speech, and convinces them that the afterlife is where they are meant to be, and they clear out.

At the end of arc 1, Velrisa is met by her goddess, and granted a Ghost Lantern.

## Arc 2

Early within the Arc, Velrisa meets up with her uncle Ander in a town, and they accompany one another in cleansing the Barren. In episode 9, "An Unmarked Grave", Velrisa is turned to ash after a beholder who had feigned its death. Her last words to the party are, "Thank you all for being my friend." Ander is unable to bring her back to life, as there are no parts of her body left. Afterwards, Br'aad attempts to resurrect her with the help of Ob'nockshai, but cannot bring himself to kill an innocent child in return for her resurrection. However, a god named the Storyteller rewinds time to before she was done away with, allowing Br'aad to prevent her death. She is currently alive, and does not know of her doom.

In episode 16, while Velrisa and the others in the party are cleansing said Barren, she accidentally kills a young girl named Claire while attempting to cast Toll the Dead on the tree that is using her as an organ. Velrisa goes into shock and expresses great remorse and guilt regarding this, and later receives a letter from her hometown regarding her actions. Velrisa travels to the Everlasting Church of Wee Jas to meet a priestess in order to repent for her actions, but instead meets a man named Akar who claims to have been the lover of Wee Jas. Akar tells her that in order to repent, she must travel across planes to destroy a dangerous artifact that is being used to harvest souls. She accepts the task, and has not completed it as of the most recent episode.

It's interesting to note that Velrisa has also come into a hefty inheritance from a deceased relative, with enough gold in her bank account to allow her to "live comfortably for 17 years", which is equivalent to 12,410 pieces of gold (and may be equivalent to $1.8-3.9 million USD, according to varied sources). She uses this gold to buy herself a cloak and helps Mountain buy a staff for Taxi from a skeletal man named Quin, and she and Mountain accept a quest from him that entails killing a vampire.

When the fated travelled to Brawick she was kidnapped by war forged that according to Chirp were “Picking up the bodies” at the end of a battle. She was sent off to a prison where it was revealed the dwarven queen was going to use her blood to help defeat Ungaro. She managed to barely escape and now because of this The Fated are now going to overthrow the queen.

## Relationships

### Br'aad

Velrisa seems to take on an almost motherly role when it comes to her relationship with Br'aad, as she confiscates his wand when he starts a wildfire and frequently chastises him.

However, after she accidentally kills Claire in the 16th episode, Br'aad becomes furious with her and states that he cannot forgive her for what she has done. He holds a grudge towards her for this reason, although becomes remarkably less hostile after she attempts to repent. As of the most recent episode, they seem to be on friendly terms.

### Taxi

The two first met on a shanty boat to the Wharf. In their first interaction Taxi asked Velrisa how to pronounce her name, much to Velrisa's annoyance. He saw her attempt to steal a book from Heinen and questions her about it, as they decide to go find a place that they can read.

It's implied that Taxi is interested in Velrisa, as he frequently attempts to flirt with her, but it's unknown whether she returns his feelings.

### Sylnan

After Sylnan's death, she is asked by Br'aad to heal him, but is unfortunately unable to do anything.

Velrisa is one of, if not the only party member, who doesn't show a remarkable change in attitude towards Sylnan as he becomes hostile and aggressive. As Mountain and Taxi become frustrated with him, and Br'aad feels sad and apprehensive regarding his brother, Velrisa treats him relatively the same, although she does show a concern for his behavior and wellbeing.

### Hilltree

Despite her general disdain for the party throughout Episode 1, she was willing to cast lesser restoration on the goblin when he ran up to inform the party of the tiefling he's seen. Later in the series she appears to care more for Hilltree than the rest of the party, carrying him and bathing him while ignoring the rest of the party in Episode 5: The Beach Episode
