| Vaylith has been a [[culture:elf|Drider]] for most of her life, 'Blessed' by [[religion:Lolth]] while a teenager. She has spent over a century simi-isolated from her people. | Vaylith has been a [[culture:elf|Drider]] for most of her life, 'Blessed' by [[religion:Lolth]] while a teenager. She has spent over a century simi-isolated from her people. |
| |
| Drow see the Drider transformations as a punishment, curse, taboo, Not Vaylith. She has not only accepted her ‘Blessing’ from //Lolth// but embraced it, and its this embrace that has lead to her isolation being visited frequently. | Being turned into a //Drider// is normally a sentence of isolation for any Drow. Though //Vaylith// sees to change that outlook. though she left the city walls she didn't go far her home being within the small settlements just outside the cities walls. the first years were rough but now she is a well known name among the //Drow//. A pharmacist who offers cures for many ailments that people in the //Underdark// commonly suffer from. |
| |
| Her mother [[character:Davilok]] was in a similar position to Vaylith’s. But she chose to chase other lands while //Vaylith// is stuck fast by the love of her homeland and people. | On the surface, //Vaylith// is a stern serious woman. First impressions would tell you she never smiles and eats the homeless. But once her oddly warm smile meets your eyes and soothing alluring voice teases your ears you may find it hard to leave her presence. Her beauty rivals that of the //Spider Queen//. With five (5) deep red eyes, slender strong spider legs, the deep dark blue complexion of //Drow// unmarked by blemish or age. Larger than life assets and finely featured face with longer than normal pointed ears and short cut white hair. \\ |
| | Though the spider legs scare away cowards it means those who do show their heart are often more genuine than most. Her home often filled with letters confessing love she has no shortage of dating options. |

| //If you are looking for Dungeons and Dragons material to use or reference from their is a collection of PDF's found here for members only [[resource:books|Content Books]] | //Vaylith// is a self trained pharmacist. Originally taught by her mother for the first decade of her life she has expanded her knowledge through her mother's notes, Text books and experiments. Learning a wide variety of cures and poisons for almost every occasion found in the //Underdark//. her pharmacy, known as [[location:dregdew_pharmacy|Dreg-Dew Pharmacy]] is well known around the city of //Ridorana// and has helped many //Drow// recover from otherwise fatal ailments. |
| |
| An Introduction top your character should be like the blurb on the back of a DVD box. Something interesting and gripping to make the reader wat more. \\ | |
| A brief summery of your character as a whole currently. a good physical description can go here too. People wanna know what you look like. | |
| |
| Any wishes, goals or aspiration your character may want. | |
| |
| Any quirks or teases to dark pasts. | |
| |
| Remember aside from your physical description keep tings brief. this is most likely going to be the part you show to your Dungeon Master. They have a lot of work and can't ready through everything. so snappy and important information should be here.// | |
| |
| ===== History ===== | ===== History ===== |
| |
| Here you can stick that reaallly long Backstory you have. If your introduction has hooked then they will continue reading here. However for any Dungeon master you may be trying to convince to let you play your super amazing character. everything they need to know should be put in the introduction. | === Origins === |
| |
| This is also a good place to post updates to campaigns your character may have played in. If you are like me you may want to take the same character through multiple campaigns and having a log of their adventures can go a long way to making them feel special. | Vaylith was born to mother [[character:Davilok]]. A Drider turned [[culture:Hag]] by the pursuit of forbidden arcane. Like many //Drider//, After //Davilok// was 'Blessed' by the [[culture:elf|Drow]] Goddess [[religion:Lolth]] she became isolated from her people. Not willing to stay in such a position, //Davilok// began research into new things. This is where she would discover the [[planes:Feywild]] and her decent into becoming a //Hag//. \\ |
| | Drider normally become infertile after 'Blessing' however with //Davilok's// forbidden magic study she regained her fertility and birthed a child, Who she named //Vaylith Knell//. |
| | |
| | //Vaylith// would stay and learn with her mother in the //Feywild// until her early teen years where she was sent back to her home land. the the //Drow city of Ridorana// in the [[planes:Underdark]]. //Davilok// wanted her only daughter to experience that world and perhaps even embrace the old ways of //Drow// Culture. \\ |
| | As if the //Spider Queen// knew her impending arrival. Upon her arrival into the city, //Lolth// had //Vaylith// escorted before the Goddess's throne and asked a single question. //"What will you do here?"// \\ |
| | Vaylith Answered simply //"I wish to learn"// \\ |
| | //"Then learn you shall"// Loth returned. Bestowing her 'Blessing' upon //Vaylith// like many before, transforming her into a //Drider//. |
| | |
| | After that Vaylith left the city walls and found her Mother's old house, She has bee living there every since. |
| | |
| | === History === |
| | |
| | **A Forgotten Culture Re-Taught** \\ |
| | the culture of //Drow// has been twisted over the centuries. up until recently most //Drow// only knew the worst they were capable of. Slavers who raided the surface and were in constant civil war with one another. That all changed with //Vaylith's// teachings. Giving a voice to those //Drow// who were afraid to speak up before. She stated teaching the settlements outside the city wall of the old culture of //Drow// the celebrations had, the songs their people would sing and it quickly caught hold. People no matter their background long for calm and joy, when show that there was a time that was the normal, made them want it again. Its not been without pushback and friction, especially from //Ridorana's// sister cities but progress is grand considering the state of things. |
