| | | | |
| − | I didn't really do much roleplay with my previous family and characters. I hope to change this with my new family.
| + | == [[Image:Vasatacrest small.png]] Basic Information == |
| | | | |

| | + | * Fame: 28 |
| | + | * Wealth: above 7000 gold |
| | + | * Active Family Members: 4 |

| | | | |
| − | The Vasata familys original home lies in Beluaterra, in the city of Sandefur. During the first undead invasion the family home was destroyed and the family sought refuge from Atamara. At that time they were not part of the nobility, they were a small merchant family.
| + | == [[Image:Vasatacrest small.png]] Crest Details == |
| | | | |
| − | The family settled in Siver, Darka. The family was lucky in having numerous children. With their help, the family fortune grew and soon they were a well recognized family of merchants. So much so, that a local noble married one of the familys sons, thus bringing the nobility into the family. | + | The V in the crest stands for the latin word Verus and the F stands for the latin word Fides. This roughly translates into True Faith. |
| | | | |
| | + | The lions symbolize the courage the family has shown throughout it's history, be it in the face of monsters and undead or fellow humans. |
| | | | |
| − | == Paigven Vasata ==
| + | The bulls head symbolizes the strength and determination the family has shown and is known for. |
| | | | |
| − | Darka, Atamara.
| |
| | | | |
| − | Paigven is a sturdy man with black hair and blue eyes. He does not act rashly and prefers to think things through. Some might call him a boring person since his sense of humor is not among the best. He prefers to wield his sword with care and for a just cause, but he will follow the orders of his higher ups..unless they're horribly, horribly wrong. His dislike for messengers is well known and his love for poetry and quiet nights by the camp fire are equally well known. His heroic deeds have gained him a little bit of recognition.

| − | | |
| − | Amaarent is a free spirit. She's open minded and does not care for the normal decency rules of many realms. She is straight forward and isn't too picky on where she finds her entertainment for the night. Always travels with her maid and scribe(a source for many rumours). Although she may look frail, she knows how to use her sword and can keep up with many of the men. Her long red hair and blue eyes have always proven an asset, when looking for her nightly entertainment..be they men or women.

| − | === Time in Tara ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | She started out in Tara and spent about a month there. She got frustrated with the leadership and the overall state of the realm and left the realm to join her brother Paigven in Darka.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Sleanra Vasata ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Old Grehk, Beluaterra.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Sleanra is an adopted member to the Vasata family. Her own family was brutally slain right before her eyes when she was young. It has left her mentally and physically scarred to this day. Certain herbal mixes keep her head straight, but sometimes she forgets her medication and starts to act less than straight headed. Still, when she is clearheaded she has a sharp mind and can function as good as the next person.

| − | === Events leading to adoption ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | ''A letter Sleanra sent to everyone in Old Grehk to explain her less than sane behaviour after a battle with some undead.''
| |
| − | | |
| − | Word of my recent actions after the battle at Job's Mouth has probably reached most of you by now. My head has cleared up since then and I'd like to explain why I did what I did. It's not a happy story nor is it for the faint of heart. It's a bloody story, it's a sickening story and it is what made me the way I am today.
| |
| − | | |
| − | I was not born into the Vasata family. I am an adopted member to the family. They've been kind enough to treat me like I was born into the family and allow me to present myself as one of them. How did I end up being adopted and how does that relate to things? Well..let me tell you.
| |
| − | | |
| − | I was originally born on Beluaterra, or the New World as it was known back then. My family wasn't a noble family, but they were wealthy merchants. Much like the Vasata family was, before they gained their nobility. Our relations with the Vasata family were very close..you could call us blood bound allies. That is perhaps the reason why they took me in, after what happened.
| |
| − | | |
| − | I was about six at the time. My family and I were at our summer home, enjoying the sunshine and fruits of summer with many of our relatives. The home was some what isolated, the nearest village being a fair way off. We had a few servants and a few guards at the house to tend to our needs and safety.
| |
| − | | |
| − | One night I woke up to the sound of metal hitting metal and men screaming. I was just getting up when my mother rushed to the room with one of the guards and told me to get dressed quickly. I was frightened as the sounds of fighting were getting closer. I quickly dressed with the help of my mother, and then we left and headed towards the backdoor. As we got there, the door opened and a bunch of men rushed in, or rather, men like creatures. The guard tried fighting them, but he was quickly slain. I still remember the creatures laughing at the twitching corpse.
| |
| − | | |
| − | They took my mother and I outside, to the front of the house. The servants building was on fire, spewing black smoke all around. There was a whole bunch of the creatures and they were having fun with our servants. The creatures were standing in a circle, cheering on their comrades, who were beating the servants and my relatives, raping and doing unimaginable things to them at the center of the circle. My mother was pushed into the center of the circle and I was placed in the front row and forced to watch what they did to her.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Her clothes were quickly torn off and several of the creatures had their way with her. She was begging them to let me go the whole time. Tears rolled down her cheeks and her screams filled the night as the creatures took their turns with her. After the last one was done, one of them drew out his sword and cut off her head. It then took a hold of her cut off head, raised it to his mouth and drank the dripping blood. Her arms and legs were also cut off, each picked up by one of the creatures and the dripping blood drank from them.
| |
| − | | |
| − | My throat was sore. I quess I had unconsiously yelled the whole time. My eyes were red from the crying. It was my turn, one of the creatures pushed me to the center of the circle. There were many bodies – well, more like torsos as the heads, arms and legs were missing - laying there, including my fathers. Maybe I was too young for them, but they didn't try to have their way with me. They rather had their fun poking me with their spears. I was crying hysterically and screaming. It didn't take long for me to start bleeding from several wounds and I collapsed to the ground soon after. I must have lost my conciousness, because the next thing I remember is waking up in a healers tent. An army patrol had heard the screams and seen the smoke coming from our home and had headed to investigate. They arrived just in time to save me from death and wiped out the creatures. I later learned they are refered to as the Undead or Monsters.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The Vasata family heard what had happened to my family and were kind enough to take me under their care. They provided me with a new foundation for life and for that I am eternally gratefull to them. Every single day I do my best to bring honour to their family name.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Needless to say, I have never been the same after that night. I sometimes loose myself and do things that are, well, crazy. Certain herbal mixes keep my head straight, but there are events that can make me loose it. It has taken years to make myself a functional person again, but the event still haunts me and I doubt I'll ever get rid of the burden it has placed upon me.

| − | === Time in Thalmarkin ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | After spending some time as Duchess of Nuzanki, she got tired of the cold north and headed south, searching for a new home. Old Grehk caught her interest and now she is a troopleader there.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === The rumour ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | ''There is a rumour circulating. It is whispered in the servants quarters, the soldiers barracks and eventually even the nobles hear it. It is told in quiet tones, with nervous looks over ones shoulder. Most likely you are hearing it from a person who heard it from a friends friend. That is, if you choose to listen to it, let alone believe it..''
| |
| − | | |
| − | It is told that after the battle in Lughrethen, Sleanra and her men were looking through all the bodies for survivors. The work was nearing its end when one of her men shouted, “There's one alive here!” Sleanra quickly made her way to where the shout came from. She found her men surrounding a single monster. It was wounded, but still concious and eyeing the men with a frantic look on its face.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Sleanra smiled coldly. "Well done men. You two!", she pointed at two of her men standing near the creature, "Hold out its arm".
| |
| − | The soldiers looked a bit stunned, "Madam?" one of the soldiers asked.
| |
| − | "You heard me! Hold out its arm!"
| |
| − | The two soldiers jumped into action and took a strong hold of the creature and extended its right arm out. The creature tried to fight back, but was too weak and soon gave up. Sleanra walked up to the creature and looked it straight in the eyes.
| |
| − | Almost whispering to the creature, she said "I have seen what you do to your victims. I know how it feels to watch it, to be a victim of it. You..you probably have no idea." The cold smile on Sleanras face widened. "I will show you what it's like."
| |
| − | She took a step back and looked at her soldiers, "You there!", pointing at one of her soldiers, "Lend me your sword. I need something a bit more sturdy than this knitting needle I have." The soldier rushed over and handed Sleanra his sword, a long blade that had a big enough handel to be held with two hands. She swung the sword a few times to get a feel of it. "Ahh..nice and heavy. Just right for this job." She took hold of the sword with both her hands and walked over to the creature. "Hold it steady now, men."
| |
| − |
| |
| − | She raised the sword, putting all her strength behind the strike, and cut off the creatures right arm. The blood gushed out of the creature and the severed limb fell to the ground. The creature writhed in pain and Sleanras men were having a hard time keeping it from escaping their hold. The creatures screams echoed through the body filled field.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Handing the sword back to the soldier she borrowed it from, Sleanra picked up the creatures severed arm and walked over to look it straight in the eyes. She held out the limb so the barely concious creature could see it. "See this?" she asked in a cold voice, "This is what you do, isn't it?" With that, she tilted her head back and raised the severed limb over her head, letting the blood drip over her face and body. Her men looked on with nervous whispers. Sleanra threw the severed arm out into the field and looked at her men with a blood covered face. There was a cold smile on her face, making her look like a madman from a slaughter house. "Cut off the rest of its limbs and leave it to die!" she ordered and turned around and started walking away. Her personal healer was just making his way to her, but stopped with a shocked face when he saw her. Her men were standing around nervously, not knowing wether to follow the gruesome order. Suddenly Sleanra turned around and shouted at her men, "What are you standing around for? I gave you an order! Oh..and one more thing. When you're done..bring me its thighbones.." She continued walking away, laughing.

| − | === Recent news ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''09.01.2006''':
| |
| − | In recent times, the many fights she has had with monsters and undeads has lead to her medication waining and loosing its effectiveness, resulting in disturbing actions by her. The fights have also taken a toll on her body, weakening her and making her personall healer worry. The healer suggested taking some time off from the fighting and an opportunity raised when a new baron was needed for Jedinchel. Unfortunately, she did not receive the title and is now left with few choices in gaining a breather from the fighting.
| |
| | | | |
| − | '''11.01.2006''': | + | From that point on, the family's influence grew and they were soon widely recognized as nobility. As members of the family began to venture through various realms and lands, the family's wealth grew and the name began to carry weight behind it. |
| − | The news of the Vasata familys granfathers death came at a bad time for Sleanra. Her weakened health could not handel it and she had an event of sorts, mainly she ended up coughing up blood and that left her unable to handel her duties for a few hours.
| |
| | | | |
| − | '''20.01.2006''':
| + | === [[Image:Vasatacrest small.png]] Recent Times === |
| − | Sleanra received a book from the dead granfather. In it, he revealed Sleanra has a three year gap in her memories. Apparently, right after her parents death, she went missing. The book contains all the information the Vasata family has been able to gather about that time. Thus far, she has not dared to dig in on the issue.
| |
| | | | |
| − | '''05.02.2006''':
| + | The family has gained quite a bit of fame and recognizion in certain realms. Amaarent and Sleanra have both held duchesses positions and Sleanra has held a few lower titles. |
| − | While Sleanra was taking a walk in Ossmat, a man attacked her. Claiming she had somehow in the past ruined his life, he raped and stabbed her as revenge. The guards in Ossmat were still pursuing the man as this news was written. No word on Sleanras condition has been given.
| + | Amaarent raised the familys fame by marrying Kostaja Kosunen, the king of Darka and by being elected as Arch Priestess of Darka. |
| | | | |
| − | '''22.02.2006''':
| + | == [[Image:Vasatacrest small.png]] Members of the Family == |
| − | Due to health issues Sleanra has decided to become a bureaucrat. She was also appointed the baroness of Iknopata so it was a natural extension to that.
