History: Leis has a fairly unremarkable history. Like, really unremarkable. She’s the youngest daughter in a family of farmers, and, surprisingly for a PC in a world like this, her family is actually still alive and well. Either the village that she had lived in was too remote and small for anyone to care about going after, or they were blessed by some great stroke of luck. Either way, apart from small monster attacks, her childhood was undisturbed by problems like that.
Since she was young, Leis has always been a dreamer. Hearing and reading stories about the Paladins of old, she decided that she wanted to be like that: fighting for the light, for justice, for the people. There was just the complication that she possessed no training in such matters, and there was nobody around that could even begin to teach her such things. As it tends to happen, she was so infatuated with the dream that she neglected to actually go anywhere with the combat training that might allow her to become what she wished. Sure, her grandfather taught her the basics of combat, but she never really had the strength to use the only real weapon that he could bestow upon her.
The truth of reality didn’t stop her from setting out a couple years after her grandfather died, though, because someone who dreams to save humanity from the darkness can never be the light if they sit at home and wish that they were something they were not.
Other: Yes, this is mostly recycled.
Done in by the dubious doings of destiny.
