Afia

A female halfling rogue with wide hazel eyes, a dusting of freckles across her round cheeks, and long chestnut hair kept in a tidy braid tied with a faded blue ribbon. She wears simple maid’s attire while working the inn, always spotless and well-kept. Her small frame and gentle voice add to the illusion of innocence, with a silver flower-shaped hairpin tucked into her braid—actually a concealed poisoned weapon.

Lissa plays the part of a cheerful, soft-spoken maid to perfection—kind, attentive, and unthreatening. Beneath the surface lies a cunning and pragmatic killer who finds satisfaction in the art of subtle assassination. She’s loyal to Keldrin, viewing him as both mentor and protector, and respects the hierarchy of the guild. Lissa enjoys the irony of her role and is particularly fond of observing guests while silently determining how she would kill them if ordered. Though not sadistic, she is entirely devoid of remorse.

Born in a quiet village far from Levithal, Lissa was orphaned at a young age and learned quickly to survive by wit and subtlety. She drifted from city to city, honing her skills in thievery and silent kills until she caught the attention of a Shadowsworn agent during a botched assassination she pulled off with alarming poise. Brought into the guild and trained further under Keldrin’s eye, she earned the codename “Petal” for her gentle manner and lethal grace. The Hearthlight Haven became her perfect stage—blending hospitality and homicide with seamless charm.
