History
Aelyna is a special sort. She was the chief's daughter of one of the most famous peaceful shifter tribes across the world. Unfortunately, with a peaceful shifter tribe comes the clans that seek their demise. Aelyna lost her entire tribe during her arranged marriage to bring allegiance with another tribe. Her to-be husband and entire family was slaughter. Aelyna barely managed to make it out alive and was immediately capture by the enemy at the tender age of 13. The chief of the enemy clan grew enamored with Aelyna immediately. Nearly 20 years her senior, he decided to take Aelyna as one of his brides.
Forced into yet another marriage, her entire life was flipped upside down in a mere week. The night of the wedding when the chief had taken his new bride to bed, it was in his sleepy aftermath did Aelyna come to a decision. As she lay bruised and disgusted a plot for revenge stirred in her mind. The next night, after the young girl had gotten her strength back, her new husband wanted another tryst with his child bride. Aelyna told him she had a special treat and outside their holdings drums began to beat. The young girl began to dance for the chief, intending to slit his neck from behind, when her ability of illusion came about. The chief suddenly became enthralled when his vision became darkness and all he could see was Aelyna. Moments later, he was soundlessly murdered by a confused young girl who took advantage of the opportunity.
Despite having no idea what she'd done or how, she turned into a field mouse and escaped unnoticed. For 3 years, Aelyna hid in the shadows until her maturity began to attract the notice of men around town. She began dancing at a local tavern and was soon requested by wealthy men and those of nobility. One day, she was approached by a mercenary guild who recruited her to kill one of her clients for a bounty far higher than the payment her greasy, handsy client ever offered. Aelyna happily took the job and considered herself to be doing the world a favor for killing the man. The guild was impressed by the ease and stealth at which Aelyna carried out her assassination and took her on in secret. Nobody but the guild master she works for knows of her secret job.
