Disposition:
Robyn is a bit sad in general demeanor but tries to hide it. She had a major loss several years ago and was never able to completely recover. Because of this, she has withdrawn from human society to live in the wilderness although she is not a complete hermit and will converse with travels and help them when she can. She is quite self reliant although she is not a woodsman in the sense that most rangers are and uses her warlock abilities to help herself. Before she had her major loss, she was a lot more sociable and even enjoyed playing the intrigue game to some extent. She was generally a good person but believed a bit in the ends justify the means and was quite irreverent. She still has little to do with Gods although she enjoys the company of Elemental beings.

Robyn's History:

Robyn was born the daughter of Valera Arian, a prostitute in the Land of the South Winds in one of the coastal cities. Her mother was a bit higher in status than most prostitutes although not really a courtesan. Although she never stated it definitively, Robyn's mother hinted very strong that her father was a fairly important local noble. Robyn was a very pretty child and her mother decided to train her to go into the same profession when she got to be older. She wanted for her daughter to be more than she had been and traded services for her daughter to learn the skills of dancing, singing, and playing a musical instrument so that she could become a courtesan not a simple prostitute.

The young girl first started entertaining men when she was just twelve years old. She was considered very attractive and skillful. She was able to make excellent money and was able to support both herself and her mother quite well. One of the gentlemen who engaged her service frequently was the lord who her mother had suggested was actually her father. He liked his female company quite young but was simply business to her. He was one of the wealthiest individuals in the area and both payed quite well and gave expensive gifts to females who could entertain him.

Even though she was doing quite well financially, something just seemed to be wrong to her. There appeared to be another path which she should be following. At first, she thought it might be a call to religion but she was never a very religious individual. Her mother talked a bit about her beliefs but heart never really seemed to be truly involved and could not help either. At that point, a powerful lady Earth Warlock was traveling through the area and sensed something in her. One might call it a deep down call to the Elements of the Earth.

The lady Earth Warlock ambushed her at her home to persuade her that her true calling was that of an Earth Warlock. She also offered to guide her down the path of Earth Magic. Something just clicked for Robyn and she decided to accept and left with the Earth Warlock never to return to her home. The lady Earth Warlock was named Ambyre Menorica and became Robyns mentor in many things other than just magic. Robyn and Ambyre became like mother and daughter. As well as mastery of the elements, she also learned history, multiple languages, and how to fight with a quarterstaff so that she would not be totally dependent on her magic.

As in all paths in true magic, the training was long and arduous but eventually Robyn became a full fledged Warlock. At that point in time, Robyn, like many journeyman before her, decide that adventuring would be the best way to increase her knowledge. So she said goodbye to her friend and teacher and departed for the world. It was soon after she left that she rescued a squire named Puston Toron. It was like love at first sight and within a couple of years they decided to get married. They adventured together for years. She became a powerful Earth Warlock and he had become a very skilled warrior.

After years of trave, they had decided to retire from adventuring and start a family. They had made an agreement with the nobility and has set themselves as lesser nobility in the borders of the Eastern Territory. A group of bandits and Puston decided that he needed to deal with the bandits himself. Robyn was about four months pregnant and they decide together that she would stay in the keep. He was ambushed and killed by the bandits. She blamed herself, her thoughts being that if she had been there, she could have stopped the bandits. She later also found out that bandits were actually sent by another local noble who was attempting to take over her lands.

Things just when down hill. The stress of her husband's death caused her to miscarry her child. As well, she could come up with no proof that the other noble had sent the bandits to attack He had some powerful friends in court and was able to claim ownership to her lands and she was left without property. As sound as she recovered from her miscarriage, she decided to retreat into the wilderness. She helps a set of adventures fight a necromancer and as a result, got the necromancer's magic staff.
