Felina Tideweather



Felina Tideweather, the artist of The Black Dragon Tavern who is responsible for the sketches found on all the bounties of the bounty boards, is quite the sweet and charming young lady! No older than fifteen, this sweet girl was picked off of the streets of Leona East by Jinks, who at the time was in the city to pick up the newly remade Tavern's order of alcohol for the bar. After seeing her extraordinarily quick and accurate sketching ability, he brought her onto the Tavern Staff as a way of making sure she didn't starve and the bounty board thrived.

History
Felina's life up to this point has been rather simple -- ''But filled with tragedy. ''She's not seen much of the world yet. She grew up in a small farming community that lived on the grassy plains between Leona East and Mourningwood Forest, and such an open location made it an easy target for a large raiding party that was sweeping across the countryside at the time. They came in the night with torches and razed the community -- And while Felina narrowly escaped with her life, she received twisted and gnarled burn scars up the entire left side of her body and lost her family of five. If Felina had not been outside tending to the animals as punishment for antics earlier in the day, she surely would have perished with them. As fire rained down upon her and the raiders swarmed, she kicked open the gate and rode the family cow out into the darkness, clung to the back of it in dire pain of her burns. She was found the next day on the road and brought into Leona East where her wounds were given treatment, but the moment she was able to tend to herself, she was left out on the streets. Tragic though Felina's story is, she's found a home in The Black Dragon Tavern. Her personality is quite sweet and caring, though she is clearly self-conscious about her burns and likely to hold ire toward you if you remark them in ill ways. She prefers calm and quiet -- Loud and obnoxious frightens her terribly, and she isn't likely to be swooned by the rambuncious or boastful hero types. She fears few things and is quite brave despite her quiet and kind countenance -- But Fire is, and always will be, her greatest weakness. She is vastly terrified of fire and will likely be paralyzed with fear when threatened with it. It is the only time you will find this resilient girl filling out the 'damsel in distress' role.
