Rose and her brother, Thorn, are twins, although this is not
obvious to the casual observer. Rose is a beautiful human girl, with flowing
red-gold hair, dark eyes and a peaches-n-cream complexion. Thorn is a
red-skinned tiefling, with ebon goat’s horns emerging from his brow, black
eyes, pronounced canine teeth and ears that taper to knife-points.
The twins were born in Hylondek to a ragtag family of
merchants, bards and adventurers. Their early childhood was idyllic and the
twins were inseperable. But their fortunes took a harsh turn after their
thirteenth birthday, when revolution swept Hylondek and the Crucible, a brutal,
human-centric regime, took over the country. The twins’ family tried to flee to
Alindrast but were stopped and imprisoned by the new regime. Rose and Thorn
watched as their parents were crucified. Afterwards, the twins were separated.
Rose was sent to a Crucible convent-school where the sisters attempted to
scourge her family’s sins with frequent beatings. Thorn was sold into slavery,
forced to fight in the arena for the amusement of the regime’s leaders.
After a year in the convent, Rose was approached by a devil
with a bargain. She accepted, agreeing to perform a certain number of services
for him, in exchange for power. Using her new abilities, she fled the convent and
found Thorn. Rescuing him from the arena, the two joined a resistance movement
and were instrumental in bringing down the Crucible regime.
Afterwards, the twins left Hylondek, to hunt down and
execute the Crucible leaders who had managed to escape. When the Draconic
Invasion threatened the Southern Palatines, Rose and Thorn offered their
services to Count Orziri as assassins and spies. The count accepted their offer
and it was Rose and Thorn who brought him news of the tarrasque summoning
ceremony.
Since the Draconic Legions have retreated from the South,
the twins have resumed hunting for the Crucible leaders. They have received
reliable information that some have fled to Shrike, which is now held by the
Draconic Empire. The twins are making plans to infiltrate Shrike, and have made
tentative contact with the resistance movement within the city. Their
experiences liberating Hylondek would be a boon to the Shrike resistance, and the
resources of the resistance would assist the twins enormously in hunting down
their targets.
