Unfinished character backstory-
Created this D&D character years ago, forgot about it, was scrolling through my notes a while ago and found this again, reread it, laughed hard at how abruptly it changes in the middle lolll ( I ran out of eloquent words loll), was kinda feeling the rest of it (and in awe that I had written something I thought was good), then again forgot about it, came across this again, and decided that I wanted to put it out somewhere other than my notes app…
So here ya go, Al, ya gonna do it and it’s all gonna be fine.

Languages—Common, Elvish, Dwarvish, Sylvan, Theives’ cant
Thia was born to a human female and an elf male. As a child, Thia did not know much of her father, as her mother hardly ever wanted to discuss him (and she, herself, didn’t care much to pester her mother for more information), but from what she was able to piece together, he was a High sun elf from a noble family, arrogant and haughty. Her mother was a strong, kind, loving, and intelligent woman who Thia always aspired to be like, but she felt she had a more chaotic and perhaps darker nature than that of her mother. Nonethelss, her mother cultivated in her a deep appreciation for life and the world around them which, along with Thia’s natural curiosity and passion for knowledge and freedom, led Thia to choose the path of a sage researcher. Growing up, Thia never felt like she truly belonged or was accepted by those around her. She mostly kept to herself, preferring to wander and think in nature, hiking in and around the hilly and mountainous environs of her village. Though she cared deeply about others and could easily converse and charm when she needed to or felt like it, her mother was the only person she had a true and deep connection with. At age 20, Thia could not contain her need for something more and left the village where she grew up to study and travel. While she was away, she came across people and creatures from all races, classes, and backgrounds. One such creature was a female rogue drow named Valanthe, who worshipped Eilistraee, goddess of freedom. Thia was able to help her out of a sticky situation and in return she told Thia that she owed her a favor.
After 5 years, Thia finally returned to her village, but something terrible happened soon after her arrival….long story short village was the battleground for sun elves and drows. Her father had been a spy because there was an entrance to the underdark near Thia’s village and they had wanted to kill them or some shit because they hated drows and saw them as their worst enemies. Thia saw that her father was a brutal bitch who literally let her mother die in front of them because it was too much of an inconvenience for him to save her. This left Thia with nothing, and from there left to find and ask Valanthe to return the favor she was owed. Reluctantly Valanthe agreed to help Thia become a rogue assassin. At first Thia was full of anger and hatred and basically wanted to be an assassin to kill everyone she thought was bad/didn’t deserve to live, especially her father…but after a while she was inspired by Eilistraee and decided that she would challenge herself to embrace her own freedom to live and live happily/freely instead of with hatred. She still liked the life of a rogue assassin, but took jobs only when she needed to or when it interested her and only if this person/creature was a true threat to others’ freedom. Thia believed that “nothing should fetter the infinite possibility inherent in all life.” So she lived her life mostly alone continuing to value knowledge and her research, and also killing or bringing in some assholes every now and then.
