Pawns of the Inquisition

@Tuxedo Fox @Rotmouse

That looks fine to me, seeing as the Inquisition party would probably be weaving in and out of the caves anyways so it makes a perfect way in for the character.

Pawns of the Inquisition

Erika Torhild

Erika Torhild

Age:
28

Gender:
Female

Race:
Human

Nationality:
Orlesian

Group Affiliation:
Inquisition

Occupation:
Bard (Assassin)

Equipment/Weapons:
Erika has a balanced longbow with an ice enchantment and her quiver of bows that sits comfortably on her back. At her side, a satchel sways slightly with her gait, it's contents vary from day to day. On her hip is a leather sheath, within it lies a silver dagger, ornate with Ferelden engravings.

Bio:
Erika was born in Orlais, though she never grew up to live a prestigious life as most do in the empire. The endless balls, parties, dinners, and formals were never Erika's form of entertainment, though being the daughter of two Fereldan merchants didn't leave much room for extravagant outings anyways. Instead, she spent her younger years with her older brother, aiding their parents with their shops and managing their goods. Her father was a weapons merchant, which up until the start of the civil war, brought in mediocre revenue. On the other hand, her mother played right into the Orlesian aristocrat's hands (and coin purses), by selling them beautiful and ornate garments and accessories. Her mother's business made up for her father's lack thereof, so the four were able to live a comfortable life.

As Erika got older, she grew bored of the merchant life. Sure, the trips the family would take into Val Royeaux for the market were exciting, but not nearly enough for a teen with a wandering soul. When her older brother left to join the Templars, Erika was truly left alone to suffer an unfulfilling life. This led Erika to grow resentful of the big whigs in Val Royeaux who pranced around without a care in the world, money flaunting everywhere while other people, like her parents, were left to work a hard life just to get by.

On her eighteenth birthday, Erika finally got the nerve to tell her parents that she was leaving Orlais to travel, first to Ferelden to see the place where her parents were born and raised. She was met with protest, but eventually, even they agreed that they could not keep her tied down. Erika left with nothing more than a rucksack on her shoulder and a dagger at her hip (a parting gift from her father). She headed down the dirt road from her home, and when she came to the end, the way to Ferelden would be on her left. Instead, she went right. To Val Royeaux.

Erika spent the next six years training as a bard near Val Royeaux. Bards were prominent in Orlais, and she found no better way to get back at the Orlesian aristocracy than to learn to pry apart every little secret that they had. She became proficient with a bow, though her father's dagger was still kept at her hip in a sheath. Erika first did freelance work, spying on whoever for whomever would pay her. Eventually, she was able to gather more noble assignments from the Chantry or the Templars, though the work of a bard can rarely be considered honorable by many people. The life of a spy suited her, and the shadows became her home. For Erika, this was her freedom.

@HushedWhispers

I was going to put it out there that this sounded an awful lot like our cheeky little friend Klaus and his many frienemies down in Nola, it's what piqued my interest in the first place.

Wolves of Red Lake Season One (Reboot)

Kassey was about to help assemble the s'mores and start handing them out when Billy stumbled into the campsite. She only remembered seeing him sitting a little ways from the water while they were all swimming, which wasn't unusual for him since he couldn't swim. Kass was thankful that Riley quickly removed the vodka bottle from his hand, like taking a sippy cup from a toddler. The last thing they needed was a nice little pyrotechnics show from an alcohol bottle.

Kassey redirected her attention to the cooler and grabbed a bottle of water, walking over and handing it to Billy opposite of the crackers that got shoved in his other hand. "Come on Billy, it's not so fun if you get so hammered that you don't remember anything." She said with a small, reassuring smile. "Hydrate and get some of those crackers in you to soak up all that vodka, you'll thank us in the morning when you can actually get out of your tent." She patted him on the shoulder before returning to her place around the fire.

Kassey was all for having a little fun and drinking, but getting trashed and waking up with a raging hangover wasn't part of the camping trip fun. As far as she knew, Billy hadn't ever acted out like that before. She wondered what was up with him, but asking him now probably wouldn't result in any concrete answers.

Her head turned when a pair of howls came echoing through the woods towards them. "Sounds like another pack is on the prowl tonight too," she said with a smile.
