Role

Chapter 5

Drissa's memories might be gone, but her personality was fundamentally
unchanged by the trip back in time. As she regained her strength, she quickly
found herself headed down a similar path as before. She is a warrior,
happiest with a blade in her hand, and eager to improve on her skills. She
has a strong sense of wanting to leave the world a better place for those who
come after her. Her caretakers in Darsylon recognized as much and encouraged
it during her recovery. They taught her of the world, and of good and evil,
and of the various Cabals and Gods.

The Maran Brigade feels like a natural fit to her - she knows she is capable
of walking their narrow path and not falling, and she believes that she has a
duty to do so in order to keep safe those who are not as capable. There is a
hint of elven arrogance to her confidence, but she is generally friendly and
fun loving, and does believe in the importance of multiple perspectives.

She is neutral good, and above all else will seek to uphold the Creed as per
her pledge. She firmly believes that the destruction of the Enemy is the
single greatest act of Good a mortal can do. That said, she isn't
singleminded in her approach to the Crusade, and will try to avoid doing
anything that would limit her ability to function at her peak. She's wise
enough to realize that striking at everything with a red aura that crosses
her vision isn't usually the best course of action, and that timing and
patience are often a warrior's best friend.

She tries not to dwell too much on the fact that she might be from the
future. She isn't at all self conscious about her appearance. Until she saw
the book, she figured her condition was the result of some sort of awful
ancestral curse, or a magic trick gone wrong. Now, she doesn't quite know
what to believe, especially because of the way it was revealed to her... but
there isn't much to do about it, no matter what the truth is.

A few other notes: She talks a little bit funny, for an elf. She loved
spending time in the Darsylon marketplace during her recovery, and picked up
mannerisms from all different races, much to her caretakers' chagrin. In a
slightly tragic turn, the elves who found her assumed that "Draliza" was part
of her name, so now she's taken her former lover's first name for her last.
