Character Description:
At the age of 14 Ghost suffered a catastrophic loss when both
her parents, John and Deana Sil'derune, died at the hands of an
organization known as the Black Skulls. The attack had come at
dusk and the town, formerly known as Skitterdale, had been beset
by a vicious pack of summoned giant spiders. However the
arachnids had not killed her parents, that was done by a wererat
calling himself Diego, who had been commanding the attack. The
beast had been under orders to eliminate the entire Sil'derune
family and Skitterdale because John had in fact been working
against the Black Skulls. However on seeing her parents die
Veronica used her recently acquired sabers, a gift from the
local smithy Jeremy, to kill the vicious wererat as well as many
of the arachnids that had attacked the town. However the damage
had been done and town overrun by the poisonous spiders.
When it was over she spent many months in a stupor while
Adventure parties came from Baldur's Gate and went off on, what
she thought to be, useless missions, yet all of them were under
pay to put an end to the Black Skulls. More than once she got into
open fights with the groups and many were surprised when she
always won. Eventually she too decided, after seeing her skills as
better than the other adventurers, she was going to go after her
parents' killers alone. However she met a ranger named Mezzax
before she could leave. He, along with her only friend, Jeremy,
persuaded her to join his group, the Wolf Pack. (This was in fact
mostly because it was the group her father had created many years
before he had retired, when they had heard of his death the new
members had come right away.)
She is now working to the destruction of the Black Skulls as
the advance scout for the Wolf Pack. Her nickname 'Ghost' was
given to her when she proved herself capable of moving quietly
enough to sneak past a couple of alert war hounds in the manor
house of Don Wessex, a member of the Black Skulls Society, who she
later killed in a bitter fit of rage.
During all this time she has grown into what many said was a
mirror image of her mother. A slim figure with surprising strength
and speed. Her most common outfit, or uniform, is a set of black
leather armor that consists of bracers, knee guards and shin pads,
over this she wears a red sash and two thin belts (for her sabers)
and a long, sleeveless overcoat of aqua-marine color. Her
Half-Elven appearance is keenly apparent and she has pale, almost
white, blonde hair. She views the world through devious eyes, one
a deep emerald green, the other an opaque ice blue, her golden
sabers are her favorite weapons of choice and she never goes
anywhere without them. Her greatest weakness is her violently
aggressive nature, brought on by her parents deaths, it makes her
wild in battle and hard to anticipate in a tense situation. *(It
is believed by her other group members that she may in fact become
one of the greatest fighters, and therefore heroes, on the Sword
Coast. That is if they can keep her on their side....) |
