Thera Lazuli

Thera Lazuli

• Human Female - 20 years old
• Fighter
• Hometown: Summerfalls

Thera was a orphan growing up in her hometown of Summerfalls, her parents are not known. She was 9 when the town was attacked. While the town burned she was aided by orphanage workers and was able to escape, however escaping the flames turned out to be a worse fate. They were rounded up and forced to work in mines by their attackers, in the city of Koal. She worked as a slave for 6 years, spending all of the time mining. When she was 15 she joined in a escape attempt that worked out for her, but not for some others.

She was able to join with a band of adventurers, and from them she learned to wield a greatsword. Due to the years of mining with a pickaxe, the greatsword felt very natural to her. In battle she typically swings away, her fighting skills being very unpolished. She became very skilled with it. From the age of 15 to 19 she stayed with the adventurers, helping them carry their things, cook, hunt and so on. She adapted well to being an adventurer. During this time, she learned the area around Koal very well, and began thinking of ways she could eventually save the rest of the people in Koal.

She eventually parted ways with her adventurer friends in the city of Khuul. Here she worked as a dock hand as well as joining the fighters guild. She did odd jobs for the guild, hoping eventually she could make enough connections to go back to Koal and free everyone. One day while loading a ship setting sail for Volmoria she made a unlucky discovery, these items where stolen. Attempting to do something about it resulted in her being captured, taken aboard, and arrested with the rest of the crew in Volmoria. She was taken to the Volmoria Colosseum as a sentence.

She wears a wristlet with her lucky charm in it. A Lapis Lazuli that she mined as a child.
