Lady Aisha Arshad

**Lady Aisha Arshad** is a caprican aasimar noblewoman and thane of Rivermond with an extensive resume under her belt, including being a former gryphon cavalier, a Knight of the Prism, and an active member of the Crown Concordat.

## Background

Aisha was born in the Grand City of Crownkeep on the 18th of Midyear, 212ER, the firstborn daughter of Aryan and Hazeema Arshad, two nobles of the city. Her upbringing was privileged, and she was fortunate enough to receive a high-quality education. This did not cloud her worldly perspective, though, as Aisha always held a grounded compassion for those less fortunate than herself, and even from a young age sought to improve their quality of life.

Aisha was involved in many community projects throughout her youth, and at the age of sixteen, she enlisted in the local guard. Over time, she worked her way up the ranks, eventually finding a role within the famous gryphon cavalry of Crownkeep.

In 237ER, Aisha travelled to Viewforth, drawn to the city by its renowned beauty and sophistication. While the visit was initially intended as a leisure trip, Aisha somewhat fell into the endearment of Duke Telae, and a series of fortunate events led her to joining the Order of the Prism. Over time, offering a repertoire of social reforms and protective services through the Order, Aisha became a thane of the ducal court of Rivermond, and subsequently, a member of the Crown Concordat.

Recently, Lady Aisha has been working with Gordok Ironbelly on the recent discovery of the entrance to the lost Stormbreaker Cave, in the foothills of Haallehunt's Ridge, where the fabled Dragonforge is rumoured to be. Her operations have led her paths to cross with an unlikely group of adventurers, and she is currently staying in the town of Thosk.

## Physical Appearance

Aisha is a tall and toned caprican aasimar woman with long dark hair, golden eyes, and a golden complexion. Her celestial heritage is more subtle than the standard for aasimar, suggesting an aasimaric trait hidden for generations in her bloodline, and it manifests in a strength of body, will and character, as well as a notable beauty and a graceful efficiency. She wears a set of +1 steel plate armour, marked with the colourful insignia of the Order of the Prism, that grants her resistance and immunity to certain effects, and carries a +1 magical longsword and a shield emblazoned with the Arshad coat-of-arms.

## Personality

Aisha is characterised by an impressive strength, which influences every part of her. From a young age, she has displayed great moral strength, showing compassion for those less fortunate and striving to help them. She also possesses great physical strength, almost supernaturally so, and a high resolve. She is kind-hearted and ambitious, but also aloof and headstrong.

## Family

Aisha is the firstborn daughter of Aryan and Hazeema of the noble Arshad family of Crownkeep.

## Affiliations

Lady Aisha, as well as being affiliated with the Arshad family and other notable noble families of Crownhold, has worked with the Watch of the Crown in several different sectors, including the city guard and the Gryphon Cavalry. She also has ties to the ducal court of Rivermond - particularly Duke Telae himself and his family, as well as Sir Benvolio and [x] - and the knights from the Order of the Prism. Most notably, Lady Aisha is a member of the Crown Concordat, granting her very powerful political allies, including [x], the [x], [x], the [x], and Albrecht Lügner, a potent wizard.
