Personal history

Babaika avoids talking about her past, but her appearance and accent suggest she comes from the Kreegor Forest area. She was brought to Malaa at the age of 15 years old. She soon proved herself to be a highly talented Magi of Hell. She made friends with the Obhejuntu Magi Brorae when they were both about 16. At the age of about 17 she was taken up as an apprentice of Lilith Ferrum herself, who helped train her for two years. When she was 19 Abedash started taking part in recruitment missions. She has gained a reputation for being a very skilled recruiter.

Failures & Embarrassments

The letter 'W' is branded onto her left wrist, showing that she has been captured and charged as a witch by Inquisitors in the past.

Quick-witted, charming and charismatic - a forceful leader and good recruiter.   Ruthless, insensitive and sadistic - not good at listening to others, and brutal against her enemies.

Babaika tends to refuse to harm children, but has no trouble harming adults that get in her way. In fact she is known to take pleasure in using her Hell Magic to play on the phobias of others to terrify them, or to inflict direct pain upon them.   She tends to take up quite a consequentialist philosophy, holding that the ends justify the means, and will do what needs to be done to further the cause of the "Bringers of Glory" and recruit new magi to their ranks.
