View source for Vyctausa Vaeril

Born to a family of no importance far beneath the surface world, Vyctausa Vaeril was raised under very strange circumstances for a female Drow.  When her mother died only a week after her birth as one of two twin girls, the girl and her sister were passed to the oldest surviving brother and Weapon's Master of their house, [[Phaeragh]], to be raised by the male when their three older sisters would have rather drowned them than to deal with the trouble.  Though her twin did not survive past the age of twenty, Vyctausa managed to flourish in their dark city, growing to be rather infamous as an accomplished assassin and thief.

When the Drow, [[Faeryl]], decided to wage war on the surface - starting with Myrken Wood - the young rogue followed their trail to the surface using a few pilfered artifacts of her own.  Her simple plan to make certain that her older brother remained safe while fighting as one of Faeryl's mercenaries was changed upon reaching the surface.  Finding some freedom in not being forced to watch every shadow for a new threat, she chose to remain upon the surface for a more permanent stretch of time than she had at first expected.

After a rather rough start on the surface, which included several run-ins with enemies and allies, both new and old, the woman remains in the forest near to the tavern.  An old ally and male Drow, Ascalon, lives under the same roof, helping her to protect a young male Drow warrior who was taken as a hostage by the apparent child, [[Maeve]].  Haunting the tavern rarely, and seemingly always late into the evening, she can still be found if looked for hard enough.
