Viola Chaney, of Chaney Manor: Fighter-1 (> Druid 1, qv) AC 10 or 2/3 (plate & shield) HP 10 STR 9 INT 12 WIS 14 CON 11 DEX 13 CHA 17 Al. NG wpn: longsword (spec) #ATT 3/2 THAC0 19 dam 1d8+2/1d12+2
Viola fled home on horseback with armour and shield to escape her abusive father (he had previously whipped her), but was ambushed by Orcs on the road. They killed her horse and took her captive. She does not wish to return home, and may offer to serve as a henchwoman to a suitable master.
"My family were once Stewards of this land... now we're nothing."
Viola Chaney's eyes widen at this.
"I've heard of Jaroo Ashstaff! A legendary Druid - he used to live in these parts - but that was years ago, long before the War, even. My mother (Lady Lanis) told me many tales of her adventures with Jaroo Ashstaff, Ranger Elmo and the Wizard, Idallus. They once rescued captives from beneath the noses of the man-eating Ogres of the Fallen Halls!"
GM: Viola like her mother is a quiet follower of Druidism, the 'Old Faith' from before the founding of Damara.
As you walk, Viola Chaney approaches Kade the Druid and speaks quietly, so the others don't overhear.
"My mother Lady Lanis was a follower of the Old Faith - my father preferred St Sollars. She told me Jaroo Ashstaff was present at my birth, that he prophesied I would one day be a defender of these lands, like my mother before me. I think now is that time."
1335 DR, 24 years ago, Lanis (Ftr-4), Jaroo (Drd-5), Elmo (Rgr-3) & Idallus (M-U 5) rescued prisoners from the Fallen Halls. Elmo found his magic shield in the Glitterhame. Idallus chose to remain in the lower halls to research the ancient dwarven magics, he was not heard from again.
1336 DR, 23 years ago, Lanis married Sir Chaney and later bore three sons and a daughter, Viola (in 1339 DR). Jaroo was present at her birth.
1339 DR, 20 years ago, the High Druid of Leth appointed Jaroo as Druid of the Grove in Rawlinswood.
1354 DR, 5 years ago, Lanis was killed in Brandiar fighting the Vaasans.
