I have a Hellsguard alt I've been meaning to RP for awhile now but...I'm unsure whether my concept is acceptable. I've done some digging around for lore but it's been hard to find anything substantial. Or maybe I'm just looking in the wrong places, which is entirely probable possible!
I suppose I should just outline what I've had in mind.
Laughing Raven is a Hellsguard from Ala Mhigo. She lived there with her merchant family until the nation was taken over by the Garleans. Chaos and discord followed, with the end result being that her parents paid for her safe passage to Ul'dah. Sadly, the 'safe passage' was a ruse and instead their child (I guess if she's in her 20s/30s now she would've been a child then?) was sold into slavery. After some years, she escaped and went on to live a free life in Ul'dah, fighting in the Coliseum...
And this is where it all starts to sound a bit hackneyed and I think about scrapping the whole concept altogether!
Is any of this feasible? I'm desperate for more information about Hellsguard family structure, slavery in general, and how life would've been for ordinary Ala Mhigans following the Garlean invasion. I also read something about Ala Mhigan lancers that piqued my interest since I was planning to have her be a lancer.
Sorry if this is a muddled mess; it's even worse in my head, I assure you! Many, many thanks to anyone who can help.
