Effects: Maghen favors revealing clothes that show off her physique and don't encumber her movement. She also likes swords, the bigger the better.
Residence: Rented rooms in inns around the city, usually around the south side and usually above the more raucous taverns. Maghen works as a bouncer in rough spots to earn her keep, when need be, and splurges on more extravagant luxuries when she's flush. Money goes through her fingers like water, and her changeable living habits bear a lot of the blame.
Background: The snowy lands bordering the White Seas were the ancestral home of Maghen's people, but she herself has only dim memories of a childhood spent in everwinter. When she was a toddler, her tribe was forced south by a white dragon that destroyed the reindeer upon which they subsisted. Rather than starve, Maghen's tribe sought refuge in human settlements. Many years later, the dragon was vanquished and, in time, the reindeer herds recovered enough for the tribes to return. By then, however, Maghen was a young woman, and had grown up among humans and neglectful of the traditions of her own people. When they went back north, she did not go with them. Instead she took up the life of a sellsword.
From an early age, Maghen showed a natural aptitude for combat. She never had any formal training, but learned in haphazard bits and pieces from mercenaries passing through the tiny settlements where she grew up. She loved tales of daring raids and blood-soaked plunder, although stories of any other sort quickly bored her. As soon as she could, she resolved to earn a few tales of her own.
Her ventures took her on a winding course through the Twelve Kingdoms and, eventually, east to Calantyr. Most of that time she spent guarding traders -- steady work, but boring, and with little of the action (or loot) she craved. When her last caravan arrived in the Coeur, she quit immediately and sought more eventful work. Her inquiries soon led her to the Parthenon.
