Gyne

 

An elf from deep in the Underdark who was born of an extremely rare breed called Rockseers. They tend to avoid conflict preferring to turn from battle and run. This behavior is rooted in ancient cultural stigma in the belief that they are cowards it also stems from their scarcity simply not wishing to spill their blood needlessly.

 

 Gyne is a rarity among them having ventured to the surface not that she ever desired to take the trip it was a mistake plain and simple, taking a right when left would have been better. This occurred when a hunting party of Drow came across her as she was prospecting crystals for use in her earth based magics. The Drow gave chase ending at what for them was the dead end of a cavern wall which Gyne had run through using the natural ability of a Rockseer to pass through stone as though walking through thin air. Finding herself on the side of a mountain and not wishing to possibly face the hunters again she stayed above ground to explore but planning to return home one day if survival was possibly here in this strange and largely unknown realm.

 

 That was several years ago and the world above has lost allot of it's original shock value though there are things that still leave an uncomfortable feeling in the gut like the Drow of the surface which seem to have been placed under some kind of spell to make them be less barbaric in many cases and trustworthy to those they serve but that's something she just cant do yet. Always cautious around them her distrust comes from an age old prejudice toward them that Rockseers harbor.

 

Gyne has become curious about allot of things on the surface and will spend days in a library reading up on anything from history , magics, politics, etc. information that other Rockseers would want to know about because their collective knowledge of the surface is limited and old. Beyond curiosity that has been expressed in this manner Gyne is subdued in showing what she thinks about rarely sounding passionate about anything. A disciplined person and private.
