## **Description**

### **Appearance**

Azure blue skin, white hair, and golden horns would be Lamia's most distinct features. Her face is normally painted with druidic markings of red and white. Her clothing is bark sewn into leather with the symbol of Death in Giant. Otherwise, she normally prefers wearing cloth over her armor and a cloak to hide herself.

### **Personality**

Antisocial, mistrusting, and calm. Lamia constantly insights those around her and those who approach due to her experiences. Once she finds people to trust, she is loyal to a fault and will show them support. She would prefer to not be the center of attention or be in the center of a crowd. During parties, she would be wallflowering instead of enjoying.

## **Biography**

### **Early life**.

Born in Calimshan, Lamia's mother wanted to quickly have her killed. By asking her sister to do this, it was too much for a child to do. Instead, a passing hero was asked to take her sister to keep her alive. Lamia was taken in, out of the goodness of Orella Daerva's heart though she did not exactly know how to raise a child. Being an adventurer, she had saved enough to afford a house in Waterdeep where she raised the Tiefling child.

In her dreams, Lamia felt her father's influence creeping unto her which filled her with fear. Her mother did the best she could for the little Tiefling. Her life was filled with racism and prejudices against her, being bullied as a child for her race and being picked on.

Orella suggested they go out of town, go on a vacation to distract themselves and show her child the wonders of the world. When they were on the return trip home, they happened to stay in a village which seemed to be experiencing problems. The watering hole was poisoned, cattle and horses were being taken or slayed, money would go missing, and so on. They saw the Tiefling child to be a plague, an omen of destruction and despair, and the very reason this experiences were occurring. The logical answer for this village was to of course, kill and sacrifice this child for the plague to end. Her mother tried to protect her but the villagers only saw the child of the devil who has brought them nothing but misfortune.

Lamia and her mother ran but at some point, the villagers caught up to them. Her mother hugged her tightly, told her to keep running and get home and she'll deal with the villagers. Lamia ran and ran, until she hid far enough. Her mother was taken in, sacrificed for the one bringing the child in the first place. Screams were heard that night but Lamia couldn't help but spot...Goblins fleeing away and laughing as this occurred.

Unsure of what to do, she found herself lost at Ardeep Forest, alone and afraid. There she was found by Dryads, not exactly sure on what to do with her but they found a child to play with. An Archdruid of the forest approached, asking Lamia if she was lost. Lamia nodded and cried, the Archdruid surprised and unsure of what to do, consoled the crying child, and learned of what happened. It was unfortunate and sad... but she could not let Lamia go off on her own, thus she was taken in by the Archdruid under her tutelage.

After a bit of training, she returned to her house in Waterdeep alone. It was large and imposing, though she had to own the house now. It seemed after a while, the Black Network caught wind of her and she was brought up by the family.
