Nialla

Nialla is a Player Character currently taking part in the World of Aria campaign run by DM Hunter Mitchell. The campaign is hosted at Comics and Gaming in Gainesville, VA on Tuesday nights at 7:00 PM.

Story
Nialla was born on a snowy night far to the north in a small hovel, amidst the rest of the pack. She grew, as did all pack members, learning how to both hunt and fight using the gift of the wolf inside her.

For the most part the pack stayed away from other civilized settlements, but there were a few that had learned enough to communicate and trade in the small villages. Nialla's father was one such man, and he taught her the basics so she would be able to treat in the villages in his when she grew older.

Exile
The day finally came when Nialla was deemed old enough to venture out for provisions in a nearby village while the pack readied itself to move on. She spent the better part of a day walking around the town and even made a few friends. Just as she was leaving though she heard a shout for help. She ran off to see what was going on only to find a couple on the road being attacked by wolves.

Nialla shifted into her own wolf form to try and save the couple but she was too late. Unfortunately the town guard had heard the cries for help as well and arrived just in time to see Nialla shift back to human form. She was covered in blood and standing next to the bodies of the couple so the guards obviously thought she was the culprit. Scared, Nialla shifted again and ran back to the pack.

She explained what had happened to her father and, grim faced, he told her that she needed to leave and never come back. The pack was only safe as long as their neighbors did not see them as a threat and that was going to be impossible now. At this point the pack might very well turn her over to be executed just to stain good graces with the other people in the area. Her father gave her his axe and some provisions and Nialla fled that night.

Aria
For years Nialla fled south, slowly coming into her own as a bounty hunter who mostly took jobs cleaning out monster dens and the occasional bandits. When she arrived at the city of Dormec she took a few odd jobs working for the various houses in the area. She began to enjoy the steady stream of work and even managed to garner a bit of a reputation amongst the houses as a strong monster hunter.

It was around this time that she was approached by House Dumont to lead a small force of men to the town of Dlek to act as temporary guardsman...
