That would be appreciated, yes! I'm drawing a blank when I try to think about how she's lived since obtaining her freedom, and not even sure how she escaped slavery in the first place. Is the Coliseum a brutal place or do the combatants manage to form friendships with each other?
As far as personality, all I've got so far is the hardships she's suffered have given her a carpe diem attitude towards life - no time for complaining or time wasting, live each day fully.

Thank you! Yes, I got the impression from quests that slavery was still going on, but forced underground. I'm just, as I said above, unsure how life was like for her during it or how she escaped. I suppose I can just come up with my own ideas but if there is existing lore then I'd like to hear it so I don't tread on anything.
I also thought that maybe her family was relatively wealthy (so she's got some education) but lost everything when the nation fell so, coupled with the slavery, she would be living hand to mouth now.
And yeah, I figured as much, but with the mention of Ala Mhigan lancers it got me thinking of perhaps a deceased relative being renowned for it and her trying to live up to the family history.

Ah, I see. Thank you!
