Ferwyn D'Ombre aka Ferna

Ferwyn “Ferna” D’Ombre is a half-elf born and raised in a faraway desert realm of sand and sun. She is the daughter of an elvish mother and a father from a distant land who had a heart of gold but a shadowy wraithlike appearance. Misunderstood and damned by the elves as unholy, Ferna’s father was banished from the territory before her birth, deemed unfit to rear an elvish child. Not wanting to forsake the creature she loved, Ferna’s mother still gave her daughter the foreign second name D’Ombre in honour of her exiled father.

As Ferna grew, those who learned of her lineage ostracized her, ignorantly believing she was the spawn of evil. From her mother she had been granted gifts of music and art, but from her father she had inherited an inexplicable attraction to nighttime, death, and dagger fighting of all things. As a result, she never felt like she truly belonged in her own land (and she couldn’t stand the scorching sun). Upon reaching adulthood, she resolved to wander the earth until she found a place to call her own… and possibly some answers to her darker half.

Ferna knew little of the world beyond her motherland. Fearing her name would be recognized as evil she resolved to introduce herself only as “Ferna” to anyone she met along the road. During her long journey she met a delightful bard named Tibalt who shared her love of music. Ferna and Tibalt were instantly drawn to each other and decided to continue their travels together.

One day in summer 1024 while enjoying some roadside “poutine” – a traditional meal of… wherever they were – they met a duo with immaculate vibes named Kendrid and Tal. The pair said they belonged to a nearby guild called DTCo and could use some extra fighters for an impending forest battle. Ferna and Tibalt had nothing to lose and signed on as mercenaries the next day. During the battle Ferna had no idea wtf was going on – she trailed Kendrid like a lost baby deer and didn’t hit anybody. But in the days and weeks following the battle, Ferna and Tibalt found acceptance in the weird and whimsical company of DTCo. With hope sparked of finding a new home they decided to stay, and are now living among their guild mates in the Totem Plains. These days Ferna is seeking to make a life for herself in the arts and trade, and trying to learn more about The Reaper – of whom her long-lost father must have certainly been a follower.
