------------- Veldrynvelve – Mission Log 01

Mission Log, 15 Quatlue 18551.

CO: Senior Sergeant Zherrinia Xernithyl.

Have just been assigned posting in New Calladon. Position and duties classified. Assignment received during briefing at Silverhaven, meeting with General Honglathor. Colonel Anatov Drueskymil serving as direct supervisor. Separate logs to be maintained with no reference to Drovikallum assignment and rank.

Personal journal of Zherrinia Xernithyl, 15 Quatlue 18551.

Have just arrived in New Calladon after my separation from Drovik Military. There is little for Drovik here, or so I was led to believe. New Calladon has surprising number of Drovik, though some may be expatriated Splinter Kingdom Drow. The presence of the Drovik Consulate just south of town might well be reason for this.

Who am I? Question is logical,… should be answered. I am Zherrinia Xernithyl, third daughter of Colonel Liexia Xernithyl of Drovik Secret Service. Was raised in military family and have served Drovikallum all my adult life. Glorious Drovik Revolution was many years before I was born, so I have no recollection of old regime. I do know of their ways and the corruption of decadent Western UnderDark place called Splinter Kingdom. Finding it odd that Drovikallum’s most staunch ally amongst the surfacers would be equally decadent Kingdom of Carellon.

Have decided to begin FreeRanger’s Guild Venture Company. Moneys from separation bonus paid for membership, but am now running low of cash. Too bad this is not Drovikallum. Soldier would be given state sponsored room, board, and medical care for years equal to service. Being Drovik, that was last thirty years. Time subtracted for not having been in any campaigns or present at war fronts. Given inferior condition of state run medical facilities and hospices and great tax burden on common Drovik workers, just as good that I make my own way.

Important facts? Let me see. I am Drovik, female, 102 years of age, War Mage in training. Five foot seven inches tall. One hundred forty five pounds (is all muscle). I speak and read and write Carellonian with only little Drovik accent. Am trained in warcraft, magical lore and research, and know most common UnderDark languages. Have developed Ki ability and can heal myself with same. Am proficient with most weapons and am a student of Drovik martial arts style. My magic is Sorcery rather than Wizardry, but I have only few spells that I know now. I am partial to human men. They have fewer insecurities than Drovik. I blame seven thousand years of Mellikan regime for paranoia about females. Favorite color? Why is that important? Oh well. Black,… I guess,… no,… deep purple, yes. Favorite drink? Is this really necessary? Estreya, of course. Favorite pastime? Does gutting goblins count?
