Mental characteristics
Personal history
It is said that few know her origins, but rumors do float around in taverns and inns around Carall. Some legends say she was born of a brief love affair between a genie and a mortal woman. Others say she is the daughter of the now dead Sultan of The City of Thieves. During the night the uncle of the Sultan would slay him and his family, but supposedly one mysteriously escaped as they raided the palace. Another story says she was a humble tavern girl who yearned for something more
Regardless of her true origins what is known is that one day the dreaded ship known as the Hangman docked into port, and waiting for its captain, one Lowman 'Crooked' Vance, was Sela, who challenged him in front of his whole crew for the right to captain the ship. Lowman was a treacherous sorcerer, so he accepted due to thinking his powers would win him the day. It is said that Lowman, the man known for fighting entire decks of ships by himself, was slain in less then 4 blinks of the eyes with Sela's sword. She would then give a stirring speech, promising the crew that they would need no other captain while she drew breathe, and that she would lead them to glory. While some were skeptical of her, they figured there was no real harm in going along with it, and if it did go bad they could just mutiny.
The number of incredible raids she has done are countless, with her first one scoring the crew the largest sum of loot they had ever seen, and with little to no one dying as she charged onto the enemies ship and fought off scores of men with her sword. This earned the respect of her men and their adoration, and together they sailed the Sable Coast, looting and pillaging all they found. They still sail to this day, and Sela has truly earned the self proclaimed title of Pirate Queen of the Sable Coast, her name is whispered in shady taverns of the coasts of Tajir and Nilush with a mixture of fear, hatred, and awe.
Social
Contacts & Relations
Due to her skill, her crew almost worship her to a degree, finding her to be the best captain they have ever served under not only due to her combat ability but also her unwavering loyalty to her crew and those she makes promises with. This has made it so her crew would gladly fight and die by her side, and so far not one has turned traitor against her or dared to try and contest her leadership of the Hangman.
She also is said to have had a brief fling with Vharri the Bloody, and supposedly they were in a brief relationship some 2 years ago before both went their seperate ways.
