Personality

Alignment: Chaotic Neutral

Lucky go getter, sneaky, feisty, and ‘fun’, but always with a hint of professionalism. Her lifetime training as an assassin really shows in her actions, always calculating the odds, observing her surroundings. It could be well said that she has a sixth sense. “Situational Awareness.” She’s quite the fun loving rogue, however, always up for a challenge, always in the mood to make new friends…or enemies.

History

Issiri grew up on a small farm in Elwynn with her two brothers, and her father. As far as she knows, her mother left after giving birth to her, but she’s unsure of this. She lived an average life on the farm for all of about 8 years, working on the tasks which she could handle, and living rather peacefully. One cool evening, just after the family had gone to bed, that she was kidnapped by a small group of assassin’s from Ravenholdt, as punishment to her Father for his lack of loyalty, and taken to Ravenholdt manor. She was opposed to it at first, but with promises of glory and gold, the league soon had a new apprentice in training.

While things weren't necessarily easy for her, Ravenholdt manor has always been well kept, and they treated her pretty well for the most part. She was always well fed, as she never got herself into trouble with her superiors, and even while well fed she kept all that weight off with her intensive training. An average day would consist of 6-8 hours of sleep, two meals, breakfast/lunch and supper, training, training, and more training. A ranking system was in place to determine suitability for missions, chores, and all of that, and Issiri passed up that system quite quickly, going from apprentice to 'adept' in about 3 years. This wasn't entirely uncommon, she just excelled at what she did.

Her training was quite extensive to say the least. From an early age she showed high interest in long range weaponry, and that's where she started, with sniping. She was trained in a light bit of engineering, to allow for mainly rifle and scope construction, and use. She picked up on this easily and was able to take a rifle apart, clean it, and put it back together with incredible ease. She could hit a target roughly a mile away, with limited technology, of course. Sniping however wasn't the only field she was well trained in.

It is, of course, obviously necessary to have liquid like skill with a blade, in her field, and thus she spent a near equal amount on training with daggers and swords, and has a small bit of knowledge on axe use, enough to get the job done. She loved the ability to have flair with a blade, and spent, and still spends a lot of her free time practicing throwing, twirling, and other blade flair. She was well known to be the top of the class, and consistently bettered her sparring opponents, whomever her trainer thought was best to pit her against.

It was here that she earned her last name of Darkblade, after completing numerous assassinations, her dagger was characteristically always dark with blood, hence, Darkblade. She stayed with them until around the age of 24, when she went off to be a private party assassin, free to be hired by whom-ever payed the best. It would be during these four years that she would gain a multitude of her most exciting stories from, as well as many of the scars she now bears…
