## Biographical Information

### Date of Death

12th of Wolverine, 1159

Cirilli was born in the village of Redwyne to Fergis and Trela, who owned the local general store. She had three brothers as well, and her childhood was fairly pleasant and idyllic.

## Kidnapped

In early 1159 people in the town began behaving oddly, with strange temporarily disappearances and moody, sullen behavior. One night the head of the local temple, Abramo, led townspeople into the Finla home in as they slept. The family was overpowered, tied up and dragged out of town to the Brokenback Swamps. There the family was dragged before a Naga.

One by one the monster mentally dominated her family with it's magic, finally getting to Finla. The stubborn girl resisted the Naga's mental control though. The creature ordered her family to take her and feed her to crocodiles in it's lair, and her own family grabbed her to obey.

Abramo, however, spoke out. Asking the Naga to allow Cirilli to be spared and given to him as reward for his loyal service. The monster agreed and Abramo took her back to Redwyne, installing her in a cage in his chambers in the Temple of Guya and periodically subjecting her to sexual abuse and his insane ramblings.

## Rescue

On the 3rd of Lion, 1159, the Joined of Vesper found Cirilli in Abramo's quarters. They told her that they had captured Abramo and that he would not hurt her any more and released her from her cage. They took her back to the abandoned farmhouse they were using as headquarters where she saw they had Abramo unconscious and tied up. She advocated his death, even lying and saying that even before the Naga's control he'd been a bad man, but the Joined refused to execute him if he had been acting under the monsters' mental control.

Cirilli told the Joined her tale and where to find the Naga's lair and stated her intentions to leave Redwyne immediately and forever, stating she would never forget the trauma of her own family turning on her. The Joined offered to escort her but that they wished to slay the Naga first. Cirilli was not willing to spend any more time in Redwyne however, and said she'd be leaving for Camur immediately. The Joined provided her with food, coin and a weapon and wished her well.

## At Camur

Cirilli arrived at Camur and amid the rumors of the monster army massing, volunteered to be trained among the conscripted soldiers so that she could be taught to fight. She participated in the First Battle of Camur, acquitting herself well. She volunteered to join Alexander's Vengeance, and impressed Sir Reyny with her enthusiasm enough that he allowed her to Join.

## With Alexander's Vengeance

Cirillia and the rest of Alexander's Vengeance fought in the Second Battle of Camur as well, in spite of the overwhelming enemy forces. Unfortunately the efforts were in vain and the town fell. Sir Reyny led the survivors northwest, bound for Myjdun and along the way they encountered the army of Lord Rivel Donne, and Sir Reyny offered the services of Alexander's Vengeance to him.

## The Battle of the Bridge

Recon from Lord Rivel's scouts reported that a large force of enemies had gathered near the main bridge across the Azure River, and that a large force of Emeronian troops had gathered on the far side to counter them. Rivel's own force was far too small to counter the enemy directly so he focused his efforts on avoiding them in direct combat, scouting and doing his best to get messages to his allies across the river.

On the 9th of Wolverine the Joined of Vesper teleported into Lord Rivel's camp, and made contact directly with Tumaini. They revealed that Sir Godgis Abare, the commander of the Emeronian forces, would attack the enemy in three days, and that they carried orders for Lord Rivel to attack the enemy from the rear, targeting a small unit of ghasts that Vossk was said to be commanding so that the Joined of Vesper could slay him. Sir Reyny volunteered Alexander's Vengeance to join them in the attack, eager for a second shot at Vossk.

In the opening moments of the battle Vossk called upon his dark magic to create a localized earthquake. A huge rift opened beneath Cirilli, Sir Reyny, and his mount, sucking them in and closing again moments later, trapping them forty feet beneath the earth. Cirilli soon fell unconscious and died beneath the earth.

## Personality

Growing up with three brothers Cirilli grew up to be tough and more than willing to stand up for herself and not back down. She was a fiery and spirited girl, who up until her trauma was fairly happy go lucky. She strongly desired to murder Abramo, but more so to flee Redwyne and never look back or think about the place ever again.
