Nymara Thirhe: The Scourge Aasimar Hexblade Warlock

DnD Commission Illustration:
Nymara grew up in a poor seaside village, the daughter of a fuller and a butcher. As an aasimar, she always had strange powers. Most of her village, made up almost exclusively of humans, shunned her for this, the kids calling her a bastard freak. Because of this, she was very close with her mother, the only person to really accept and love her for who she was. Most days were spent helping her mother with her fulling at home, and helping take care of her baby brother. One night, around the age of 15, she was walking home from the market with her mother when they were held up by bandits, and her mother was stabbed and killed. Nymara was spared and left to cradle her bleeding and dying mother in the street. After this, her father turned to the bottle and became depressed and abusive. Nymara was stuck trying to keep aloft her mother's and her father's business to keep food on the table and the liquor flowing, as well as take care of her infant brother. Without the protection of her mother, the village kids mercilessly taunted her. The loss of what she once had and the misery of the life she lived now drove her to the point of giving up. She walked to the waterside, tied heavy stones around her feet, closed her eyes, and waded in. In that place, the lowest of the low, the Hexblade found her. Asked what she desired, and offered the power to enact vengeance upon those who took everything from her. Accepting this pact, Nymara woke up on the beach, alive and breathing, with a new sense of purpose. From there, she left her old life behind and began training as a bounty hunter with an organization called the Unseen Fist, bringing those who evade punishment under the law to justice. And she passionately pursues those who killed her mother, as the desire for vengeance is what drives her day in and day out.
