Mischa is a paladin of Chauntea, goddess of agriculture. She aims to do the right thing but doesn't always know how to apply her book morals to gray situations in real life. Mischa is often pigeonholed as being more fierce or judgmental than she is, when she would prefer to hear out all sides of a conflict and provide healing to injured parties.

After her family and village were destroyed by draconic activity, the young Mischa was adopted by a priest and raised in the Waterdeep temple. She found belonging with the temple folk and thrived as a paladin, helping out farmers and believers when they asked for favors. When her younger sibling Amad came to her for help, Mischa agreed without hesitation. She traveled to the village of Greenest investigating the mysterious death of Amad's girlfriend but was caught up in a bandit siege.

She made a temporary agreement to travel with some other wanderers and investigate the Cult of Tiamat's dealings. Calling themselves the Misfits, the party traveled far together spying on cult dealings. After they returned to Mischa's home of Waterdeep, she started to realize she had feelings for one of her party members...
