Like her people, she wears minimal or no clothing, her skin marked with the first ceremonial tattoos of womanhood—symbols of strength and identity. Her hair is long, dark, and wild like her father’s, often braided in tribal style. Though young, her physique already reflects the powerful legacy of her bloodline: strong, agile, and fearlessly spirited. --- ### Early Life Raised among the fiercest and freest people of [[North Angoria|North Angoria]], Grithara trained from a young age in the dances, rites, and combat disciplines of her tribe. As the daughter of [[Razark]], Captain of the Guard, expectations surrounded her from birth. But she did not shy away—instead, she led many of the younger girls in rites of passage and was seen as a rising warrior of her people. --- ### Abduction and Captivity Grithara was taken during a sudden and brutal [[Askaria]] raid, targeted specifically because of her rare beauty and status within the Tribe. Though she fought valiantly, she was overpowered and subdued. Her captors paraded her through [[Askaria]]’s streets before selling her into the decadent elite’s slave pens—where her nudity, strength, and tribal tattoos marked her as an exotic prize. --- ### Personality - **Traits:** Proud, brave, compassionate, quietly defiant - **Ideals:** She will never forget who she is. - **Bonds:** Her father [[Razark]], the girls of her tribe - **Flaws:** She suppresses her trauma and fear, which may one day erupt --- ### Adventure Hooks - **The Slave Ring:** Players hear rumors of a barbarian girl with glowing tattoos being paraded at [[Askaria]]’s decadent events. - **Whispers of Grithara:** A sympathetic [[Askaria]] courtier sends a secret message bearing her name—only [[Razark]] can confirm its truth. - **Reunion in Chains:** If rescued, Grithara may be deeply changed by her captivity—an emotional reunion with [[Razark]] may shift party dynamics. --- ### Cultural Notes [[Continent of North Angoria]] is one of many barbarian clans that dwell in [[North Angoria|North Angoria]]. While they do not value clothing and live in harmony with the natural state of the body, they are not like the [[Daughters of Serenity]]. Their nudity is cultural rather than sacred, and while they may be unashamed, they are not inherently open to touch or indulgence. Some may react with amusement, indifference, or anger depending on the intent. Grithara, like many of her kin, was raised to see strength in one's form and confidence in one's choices—not vulnerability. Her captivity challenges those beliefs, but the pride of her people still burns in her heart.
