Sheoguard Ironwood

Post by Monkeycoder » Fri Jan 11, 2019 10:08 pm

Sheoguard Ironwood or Sheo as she has become accustomed to being called was not always of Ironwood she originally belonged to Fallstar but when she was just 18 years old her woodland village was raided by Humans leaving only Sheoguard alive.
Wondering for days or even weeks, she is still unsure to this day, the time that had past as she stumbled across Seregon Ironwood who cared and saw that she was well looked after and overtime the Ironwoods adopted her.

Due to her previous family not condoning her practice of the magic arts, she happily took on the name Ironwood, secretly in payment for all that Seregon had done for her. She taught him the ways of magic although not as adept as herself, he could channel the magic into his bow and arrow.

Sheo now an adult has left home to follow in her step brother’s footsteps to seek out new life and civilizations to boldly go where no elf had gone before...or so she would like to believe. Shortly after leaving home she lost her purse and was starving, so she traded her jewellery for gold. This installed a need for gold, setting up trade connections across the realm and giving her a taste for what really makes the world go around. Gold.

Sheo heard rumours of a dragon egg rarer than all others that was overflowing with magical essence, such an egg, if channelled properly could make hundreds if not thousands of magical potions/scrolls/items at no cost to herself. The only trouble, it was held by Kobolds which caused a real problem for sheo as these creatures of the underworld would not trade with her. Taking by force would not work as she had no known location for the egg or the muscle to take on the hordes of the underdark herself as such her only means…become a slave to a kobold.

Sheo has acquired a gift for cutting gems and crafting arts, she knew this would be her way in as much like Halfings these creatures love shiny things. Not long into a cavern filled with Stingers she ran into a Kobold called Draco’zu this vile creature wanted to kill her on sight! With a bit of luck and persuasion she managed to keep her head at the cost of weekly gem deposits and a slave collar.
After years of service she finally heard the Draco’zu speaking of ruins that held a magical object lost in the desert near Siyabad. Shortly after arriving at Siyabad the slavers saw the collar and immediately claimed her as their own, this was not planned and the slavers kept her for the longest time sending her out into the desert to claim the jewels of the dessert for themselves. However after years of searching, she found the ruins and a flower at the centre of it. After this, she realises the Kobold may have played her for a fool, she vowed to become more powerful and take revenge upon the Kobold and take their damn Dragon egg while she was at it too!

Finally free of the slave collar of Siyabad as she was journeying back to Hub to find the Kobold with a halfling called T'hurak, with a plan to assassinate the Draco’zu they stumbled across a Drow called Kluggan. She immediately slew the party Sheo was with but felt the immense magic flowing through Sheo yet to be unleashed on the world. She knew that this elf could be of use if she was moulded into a weapon of evil or at least something good for beating or a gift to slay for any Drow who she wanted to please and took Sheo as a Slave (she also took the halfling but that is another story).
