Hidden: show
Appearance:
The scent of Iron, sweat and rich earthen moss cling to the blackened steel plates of her armour. Standing as a living wall of metal and menace, her five foot and seven inches and broad build mark this drowess as anything but typical of her race. Faintly glimmering tattoo's of rich amethyst mark her face, the four interlocking rings of Ibrandul a permanent challenge against those who seek to claim dominion over the dark depths.
Personality:
Virtues: Hope, Charity, FortitudeVices: Pride, Wrath, Greed
Stern, defiant and rabidly defensive of her adoptive family Verona is a living antithesis of lolthite values. Her youth spent as a slave to a duergar merchant smith left her internalising much of her adoptive keepers values and beliefs. She to this day holds onto much of this placing great importance in the welfare and reputation of her familia.
While oft cold and disdainful of outsiders especially those who cling to the webs of the spider, she is more than capable of mirth. Saving those precious few moments of joy scattered through out her short span of years as evidence that the world is not without meaning. Though she may struggle with the nihilism of the endless night she has found shelter within the meaning she forged for herself and through the dogma of her patron Ibrandul.
Goals and Motivations
"Forward, Forward unto darkness. Trust in Ibrandul for he has delivered you unto me" - Impenetrable Lurker Bolvar steelscale 1309DR
Verona is a driven individual and fanatically devoted to her god. His wishes are hers and more specifically she sees the eradication of Lolth and her followers as the only path to salvation for her race. Her dwarven upbringing convincing her that only through unity and toil can the Drow forge themselves into creatures able to claim a lasting realm.
Her current path leads her to Bregan D'aerthe affording her a grounding purpose in her mercenary family. One that she hopes to forge into blade strong enough to sunder the web of despair that blankets the depths.
Skills
Verona has over the course of her life developed and forgotten many skills and crafts as needed. From her time as a slave she developed an artisans expertise at forge craft. knowing just how hot to heat the metal, where the hammer should strike steel and when the metal needed to be reheated.
From her time among the raiding bands she learned how to lay in wait for an ambush, how to cling to stone and muffle the ringing of armored plates.
Most crucial of all she learned how to survive within the caverns, to tread paths through the darkness than few others dare to travel.
All of this is behind her now replaced with single-minded focus on her goal. Learning how to move and position her bulk within the fray, to weave and unweave spells cast by her foes and to gnaw at the roots of her foes pride. She is now utterly and completely a champion of Ibrandul.
