Caralaria
Personality
Though trying hard to follow the path of the monk, Caralaria is often frustrated by those around her and prone to petulant temper tantrums and violent rages. She is also eager to do well.
Appearance
While living in the wilderness as a girl, she ran into some form of chaos magic, which altered her appearance, giving her violet eyes and long pink hair. She dresses in the robes typical of her monastery, which seems to constantly adjust themselves to inadvertently show off her cleavage.
History
Born in a barbarian tribe, she fought as a warrior even when very young. Her whole family and most of her clan was wiped out in a raid, and she was severely wounded and left for dead. She was found by a traveling monk, who took her back to the monastery. Once healed, she decided to become a monk herself, in order to quell her violent rages.
Affiliations
Part of a monastic order called the Path of Iron, Caralaria and the other monks look to iron and other metals for inspiration, trying to emulate its attributes in their fighting style. The order reveres The Iron God, and contains a number of blacksmiths and other metal workers.
Caralaria is a guildsman in the Delver's Guild, giving her access to guild information, library, maproom and waystations. She also gains a 10% discount at Ebbert's Outfitters.
