Personal history

Marcyra Awe was born to human parents who were immigrants from Pardina who had been banished from the country because of their infernal child. Much of their wealth was spent making it out of the country as Pardina is often viewed as an exclusive nation which has a tendency to either enslave or kill humanoids who have outsider blood (both from other planes and far-away nations). This lack of wealth when they came to Bleakburn and the underestimation of security made it so they suffered an early accident which led to both their death, as a massive pirate attack which breached the watergate killed them, making their daughter Marcyra an orphan.   Marcyra managed to survive her early years as part of a pickpocket group of children who worked for a man in the hollows, a group she lived with until she was 11 years old and he was killed by black-berets. Marcyra also abandoned her last name at an early age and as many tieflings do adopted a virtue name: Awe. When Marcyra was 13 years old she met a boy named Illidan Windsor who she would become great friends with, the two would get up to much mischief and she would teach him many of her own tricks. The two would do everything together and grow very close over the year, both would also develop more romantic feelings for eachother, but none of them would tell the other as both feared losing their only friend.   After years making life in the Defense District liveable, everything would come falling down on her. Marcyra and Illidan had attempted to rob a shop, but the shopkeeper Olaf Dinkraft who had served as a black-beret for most of his life had woken up and came down to check on the store. In a rash moment, Illidan knocked him out with his mace, almost killing him and the two ran away in a hurry, fearing that they had just messed everything up. The two got into an argument which became very heated, and in a moment of full emotional breakdown, Illidan professed his fondness of Marcyra, but she was too anxious and caught off guard to respond with her own feelings. Marcyra couldn't think straight in the moment and responded by telling him everything was a mistake and wandered away from him telling him to have a good life. She instantly regretted it and looked back in hopes to take what she said back, but he was gone within the minute.   Marcyra continued on her own after losing her best friend for months before being contacted by the Golden claw, the thieves guild in Bleakburn. They had been watching her and originally wanted both her and Illidan, but they still gave her the option of joining them. She had dreamed of this moment, but hoped that she would have been with Illidan when she accepted, but even alone, she joined them. She continued to work her ways, but now for the guild. The rose up in ranks quickly and became a very reliable person within the guild. It would almost fill the hole left by Illidan.   Her work as a guild member continued for years, until Illidan returned to Bleakburn after more than four years away as an adventurer. Her feelings for him had never left, but she was curious about who he had become and followed him during his visits in Bleakburn, that was until he caught her sneaking and confronted her. The two began to talk after years of silence and surprisingly she managed to get back on talking terms. He had done well for himself as a "camper" and became quite famous. He had also got many new friends and a girlfriend, something which felt like a punch in the guts for Marcyra, but she couldn't stop herself from being happy for him as she always wanted what was best for her old friend. She ended up confessing what her feelings were for Illidan when they broke off as Illidan needed closure. Marcyra couldn't bring herself to say that some of those feelings still haunted her and hadn't changed. She did not want to stop the tracks he was on, but rather wanted a friend back in her life.   After having reconnected with her childhood friend and began a new chapter in her life, the Golden Claw imprisoned her and kept her locked up without her knowing for what crime. The Golden Claw had found her lack of results with Illidan and his friends disappointing and because of it, she was to be punished. Illidan and his allies managed to fix things with the guild, but her betrayal of her original orders to control them and inform the guild about them made her look like a traitor. The leader of the guild Lazarus Tandenzel chopped her right hand off with the Golden Claw and banished her from Bleakburn and the guild. Illidan brought her with him to his new home of Brinehold where she lived for some time, while he attempted to fix her hand and help her find new meaning in her life. The hand could, however, not be fixed because of the enchantment put upon the Golden Claw to stop all forms of regeneration or healing from wounds it made and being so close to Illidan after never properly dealing with her emotions made her flee Brinehold with a device which would hide her from magic.
