Brief Backstory:
Ethica was born in a not so well-to-do neighborhood within Throal. Her mother was the inheritor and owner of their family apothecary. Since Ethica’s older brother would inherit the apothecary once their mother passed, Ethica never developed much interest in learning about plants and medicines, though she did gain a basic understanding of botany at an early age. She grew up as a member of a very sparse minority in Throal, and hardly ever saw another elf child where she lived. Instead, she loved to tussle and play with the ork children of the neighborhood, who she felt a natural connection with, and as a result grew fairly tough. She learned how to use a knife by hanging around with the local gangs, and was taught how to use a dagger as a sword at a young age. She was never strong enough to weild the same weapons that her ork friends would carry, so she made do with sticks and her superior agility. When she was 18, she got caught in a turf war with another local gang. Before the city watch could break it up, she had knocked six members of the rival gang unconscious by herself armed with just a wooden rod. This wasn’t her first criminal offense, and she was caught arrested by the city watch. A stranger visited her cell that evening by permission of the watch, an onlooker who saw the fight. An onlooker who also happened to be a master circle Swordmaster. Recognizing that Ethica was magically latent and had a propensity for melee weapons, he made a deal with her and the city watch. If she agreed to study under him to become an adept, and cut her ties with ganglife, he would claim responsibility over her and her actions and get her out of facing prison time. She grudgingly accepted, and trained under the Swordmaster for a year and a day. She has now been released from his supervision, and she is anxious to leave the city and experience the new outside world.
