Samara Rouge

**Samara Rouge** is an NPC on *Another Bad Side Quest*. She is an Elf, described as a beautiful elven woman, with olive skin, long dark hair that she kept up in a high ponytail and out of her face, thickly calloused hands from long years as an artisan laborer and a figure denoting her as six months pregnant. She is the wife of Killian Rouge and a resident of the city of *Kra'Kash*.

**Ep. 1 - Acquaintances In The Underbelly**

When Tabernacle put his arm around Killian, insisting to take him with him to *The Darkstop* in The *Underbelly*, Killian mentions Samara "had just washed this coat" noting the stains and grease from Tabernacles hand.

She was brought up, not by name, when Killian spoke with Morgan the quartermaster, and used his services to send a parcel including a letter and dagger, to their home in *Kra'Kash* warning that the messenger should wear padding as the recipient was known to be aggressive at times.

**Ep. 2 - Fishing and Feather Beards**

Samara was mentioned by Killian when he spoke privately with Alaerith in the *Underbelly.* He said about how she was his wife, how she was an elf and how when he first met her, she was treated less then kind due to being an elven heritage. He cited this as the reason why he wanted to be sure Alaerith was ok, as neither he or Samara had someone to watch over them, especially seeing as Tabernacle always seemed to be keeping his eye on him.

She was brought up afterwards when Morgan said the letter had been sent and that the messenger had extra padding as recommended by Killian.

**Ep. 3 - Down the Hatch**

Samara was referenced by Killian when after the exile to the *Underdark* when he started to write a letter to her, while the rest of the party took a moment of silence after Seren's story.

Samara was mentioned by Killian, when he conversed with Aarcanii about getting her recipe for the stew she made for them, in return for one that delectable stew his wife made. She was mentioned again to Quincy, implying that Quincy had heard her name prior, and Killian mentioned that he and his wife were expecting a child, and were hoping for a girl.

**Ep. 5 - The Burrow**

Samara was brought up in conversation by Killian while speaking to Quincy, and his fears of if he died without her ever knowing, after coming so close to death crossing the chasm. She was mentioned again when Tabernacle had a heart to heart with Killian, where Killian insisted that he would be fine and that even if he died would reach up to the Gods and drag him back down.

**Ep. 8 - Memories**

Killian told Quincy that he might give his new purchased halberd to her as a baby shower gift.

**Ep. 10 - The Spider Dragon**

Killian has also mentioned to Quincy that Samara has threated to kill him and so she might take Esmeria's threat as a good sign of flirting.

**Ep. 11 - The Order of Ruin**

Samara was mentioned briefly, not by name, to the party after Tabernacle told the group of the trio's intention to burn *Kra'Kash*.

**Ep. 12 - Forewarned & Forgotten**

Samara was mentioned briefly, after the party safely made it to Masq, when Killian wished to see if she was ok using Seren's *Sending* spell. Though he had to wait till after they rested he did manage to though Seren notably received no response back when he cast it.

Chuluu mentioned her again in slight passing before they left Masq's shop, on top of everything else, for them to save Killian's family at least.

**Ep. 13 - No Rest For The Wicked**

The party met Samara for the first time after they arrived in *Kra'Kash* for the first time together. Samara greeted Killian with a smack and angry questioning which Killian took in his stride before she allowed them in. Samara kept a modest home and readily set out tea, coffee and scones for the group even, and also allowed Aarcanii who was with them to borrow from her clothes, as she was keenly focused on Killian and interrogated him as to why he was gone for so long. She also showed visible reactions toward Seren, when it was revealed he was the voice she had heard in her head, which cleared up a misunderstanding to her, as well as to Killian, when Tabernacle told her he was their Killian, which she told him "not again". She noted that he loved to cause trouble, but asked him to not die. When told about the danger to the city, she did not question Killian and instead grabbed her things and after a last hug, kiss and stink eye to Killian, headed out, along with Hobble, for "the old home", a place where she and Killian had lived in the woods between *Kra'Kash* and where the party had resurfaced from *The Underdark.*

**Ep. 14 - Magical Markings & A Misty Moon**

Samara was shown briefly while the party were at *The Docks* when *Kra'Kash* was set alight. Tabernacle asked Killian if he wanted him to check on Samara, through Hobble's senses and soon saw she had indeed arrived at her destination, which was a rustic cabin sort of place, with her feet up and a cup of tea, before Hobble knocked it out of her hand as a warning of what had happened in the city.

**Ep. 16 - Tales from a Dead Man**

Samara was referenced, not by name, when Killian told Quincy of his story and how he had made a family for himself in a genuine city.

**Ep. 20 - The Shipyard Shuffle**

Samara was mentioned very briefly during Seren's prayer in his attempt to revive Killian, when Seren implored Killian that she still needed him.

**Ep. 21 - Departure**

Samara was mentioned briefly before the party went to Puhan, when Killian cast *Sending* to let her know they were heading there and if she was ok, and she in turn let him know she was safe and in their home in *Kra'Kash*.

**Ep. 53 - So. What Now?**

Samara was mentioned by Seren when he said he wished to speak to Quincy in private and revealed that Ob and Bolton pulled him during his time in the Feywild when she gave birth to she and Killian's daughter *Lucille*, that she and her daughter were doing fine and had set up a small farm she now ran on her own.

**Ep. 59 - The Old Artificer**

Samara was mentioned when Quincy told the Seren's update on her and Killian's daughter Lucille.
