------------- Crimson Velvet – Eroboria

”Tieflings? Don’t use ‘em, don’t like ‘em, sure as hell don’t want one around.” – Cameron Quinn.

Leaving Goblinvale, they took a ferry boat downstream to the town of Myranador. All they found there was a piddly riverfront and a few boarding houses. There was nothing there that proved of any interest, and certainly nothing there worth stealing or killing for. Fortunately, the five soon found their last two.

Two other travelers had arrived in town, coming upstream from Hobmarz. They didn’t care too much for the little river town either. Ivanna immediately saw something in the little red head. She was not what she appeared to be. She was not even female,… well not exactly. She suggested the two join them as they headed south towards New Calladon. To her surprise, and the rest of the Crimson Velvet, the two agreed.

Eroboria Rhallendur was born in the manifold planes of evil, what you call the Underworld, Hell, the Abyss, whatever. She was part of a band of traveling Tielfings, plying trade up and down the River Styx, selling their trinkets and services to devil and demon alike, making money off the Blood War, and avoiding the Gods of evil when they could. Whether by intent or accident, their band passed through a planar portal and wound up in Arrallon, the Nexus of all planes. They were soon surrounded and slaughtered by well meaning holy warrior types. As usual, these goodie-two-shoes left the job half done. A single Tiefling child escaped.

Years later, this child had grown to womanhood, or whatever it is one calls a state of maturity amongst True Hermaphrodites. What trials she had undergone in the intervening years, none could say. There was a band of brigands who held her for a time. They’re all dead now. Her doing? Perhaps. What is known is that she used her charms, her magical abilities, to seduce her way into the Setting Sail Syndicate and soon ended up one of their most successful assassins for hire. On a particularly tough job in Wyreport, she was paired with a Zeigus mercenary. The two ended up saving each other’s lives several times before the job was done. So, she let slip her little secret, that she wasn’t human after all, nor was she female. The two have been lovers and trusted allies ever since.
