Her name is Rose Marie Darkness-McLaren, she originally hails from the Drowmian Valley deep within the Gninraw Dynasty. She is well skilled in the way of the sword, though she does not travel the lands with it constantly upon her side. There is no need since she can fight as well with her hands if need be and with whatever little gem that may be hidden upon her person.
Her mother was Drow, a high priestess to her people. She committed the ultimate sin when she married a human male. Little did L'Ariana care what her people thought, she loved Jacob Darkness and that was all that mattered. Love wasn't a common thing between the Drow. Women ruled and men were the weaker of the race. Most were slaves to the women's wants and desires, though those thought worthy were kept as life long mates.
It was on her 5th birthday that the council came for her mother. An uproar in the community of how she flaunted her relationship with the vile human. She was given a choice, the death of the man and the aborhid creation they made, their daughter. Or, her life for theirs. Jacob had no say in the matter, he was kept from the council room that his wife had been called to. L'Ariana made her decision, her daughter would live and she gave the greatest sacrafice that a mother could, her life.
Begrudgingly, the Drow kept to their word. Jacob was permitted to continue running his forge and raising his daughter at his side. She learned the skills of his trade easily. That was the only easy part of her life. Hated by the Drow for being part human, and by humans for being part Drow. An outcast to the world as a whole. She threw herself into learning all her father had to teach, until she reached the age of 15. It was then she decided she wanted to see the world around her. Her father at first argued this point, refusing to let go of the only thing he had in his life that he loved. This only caused a small delay in her plans. Not long after that, her father died in his sleep, due to a failing heart. No reason for her to remain in a land of hatred, she set off on her own.
Her first position came with the crossing of the lands of Shadow Dragon. Here is where her squireship began and flourished into a knighthood. Many years she stood by the Queen's side, until the woman lost her mind. The Queen went on a rampage and started killing off all her knights. She managed to escape and continue to wander.
Providing her blade and knighthood to various lands she passed through. Fighting in their wars, creating weapons to fight with. Even her own inventive creations had made a difference in many campaines. That was until she met another Blacksmith, that her life would take a major change. Finding love for the first time in her life, a new chapter would be written.
She should have known better than to think happiness was to be hers. The love she fought so hard to keep, was taken from her through selfishness. His love for his people and his lands soon replaced his love for her. Again to find herself an outcast, only this time upon the Scottish shores.
Having returned to Rhy'Din, an outcast from the family she once belonged, she now tries to strive and make a new life for herself.
