Ara Dordove

Ara Dordove is a Tiefling Bard of the College of Glamor and one of the main party members of The Great Gaenrun Caper Campaign.

Appearance
Ara has a colorful appearance to match her personality. She has wavy lavender hair with curled rams horns peaking out from beneath. Her skin is a bright pink, contrasted by the glow of her yellow eyes.

Her usual attire is a maroon crop top with flowing ribbons spilling off the back. A short teal cloak hangs over her shoulders, matching her long patterned dress.

After losing her limbs in a bombing at her concert, Ara has a prosthetic arm and leg. Her arm contains a small compartment that houses a flute. (2x1)

Personality
Peppy and optimistic, Ara is a cheery individual with a spirit for adventure. Years of isolation have cultivated a wanderlust and search for answers, hoping to experience the world that up until now was just a fantasy for her. She assumes the best of people and prefers to tell the truth.

However, the usually smiley Ara has a short-temper and is incredibly stubborn. She dislikes being told what to do, especially by older men such as Morgun and Hadrian. Rarely does she change her mind if it's made up. This extends to a dislike of commitment and being bound to her word, preferring to have people take her at her word over formal contracts or pacts.

Background
Ara was born to Iam Hellsteel and an unknown mother just before the Seige of Last Mount. Her birth father died tragically in the battle and she was given to her adoptive parents, Luryc and Orabella, an Elven couple living in Thyslond.

Luryc was an occult scholar of fiends and other otherworldly beings and never told Ara of her devilish heritage. She was convinced that she was actually an elf, cursed with horns and a tail due to some treachery committed by her birth parents.

At the age of 18, Ara attended a two-week field trip with Arcor. She planned to flee the field trip early on and travel to Markham to meet her blood uncle, Hadrian Laughingsteel. She confided in her counselor, Phoebe, about her plan, who not only approved but encouraged her to leave for Markham immediately, promising she would cover for Ara.
