Character
Description and History
Native of a small village out of Waterdeep, Deianira was taken
to the temple of Lathander in the city by her father to be kept
safe by the raiding parties of ogres that, at the time, plagued
the countryside.
She grew up there, following the normal course of studies provided
by the temple but, contrary to most of her schoolmates, decided
to stay and become a novice.
Growing up in the temple caused her a growing sense of unease,
the need to go out and see the world, to do things (and possibly
smash a couple of ogre heads on the way).
Noticing this, her superiors marked her as an adventuring priestess,
to be set of (with great advantage to their peace of mind) as soon
as suitable escort came along.
In Deianira's senior novice year a young warrior took service
at the temple, steady and strong it seamed the ideal choice and
a few trial missions were given to the couple. The partnership went
well (but for poor Brandimarte's emotional state) and the missions
became increasingly frequent and complex. During one of these the
two got lost and met the Black Roses.
They have been together ever since.
See Deianira in the Danger
at Dagger Falls painting by Tiziano Barrachi. (Second
