History
Chaos; for as long as Garnet can remember, her existence has been governed by it.
Crafs was born a goblin, far from the luxuries of civilization, further yet from the services of Forgotten Realms' many organizations. For the longest time, all she knew was conflict and hunger. Families being torn apart by bursts of violence, siblings fighting over scraps, friends stabbing each other in the back come the first opportunity. Of course, Crafs was no different; she owed her continued existence to the conflicts, always managing to claw her way out a victor - or, at the very least, a survivor.
Then, one day, she came to know real chaos. To this day, she isn't sure what happened - but she knows exactly what happened after. She woke as a different person - a different creature, one that did not recognize the place she used to call home. Her tribesmen were alien to her as much as she was alien to them, and before she knew it, she had fled in terror.
Confused, alone and still unfamiliar with her new form, she found herself in the territory of a dwarven clan. While there, exhaustion claimed her. Had it not been for the kindness of an elderly dwarven couple, she would've likely succumbed to the elements. As things were, not only was she rescued, she was given a chance at a new life. The couple had no children of their own, and they were eager to adopt the wandering child as their own. They did ask questions - but upon noticing how scared she was to answer them, they pressed her no longer.
"Garnet", as she came to be known, was brought up as a dwarf. A... strangely green dwarf, with pointy ears and telepathic powers, who was prone to bursts of almost savage behaviour at times. But her parents stuck by her, and did their best to quell her worries. Garnet never told them that at times, she remembered her previous life - and all the bad things she did as a goblin, however. Instead, she sought redemption her own way - she came to revere Moradin, and whether on purpose or not, came to adapt some of the most fundamental dwarven traits: sense of justice, loyalty, and... well, stubbornness. She learnt the art of the forge from her father, and the art of the axe from her mother, and promised never to misuse either gift.
But though her life was good, Garnet felt as though she couldn't stay in the remote dwarven city forever. Her parents had raised her to be hardworking and ambitious, and so when she realized money was becoming tight, she offered to go earn her own fortune out in the world. She promised to send home both letters and gold alike, and that she would come visit whenever able - with tales of her adventures in tow.
The first employer she found was less than ideal. They were more interested in making a profit from Garnet's peculiar origins and telepathic ability than they were in respecting her as an employee and a smith - and it drove Garnet to anger. An altercation ensued, and at the end of it, she walked out. Hopefully, Acquisitions Incorporated would be a better match for her.
If not, well, there were plenty of fish in the sea - or rocks on a mountain, as her mother used to say.
