🧹Elphaba Briarwood

Wild Beyond the Witchlight - First iteration

he/she | neutral evil | fighter lvl 5

Criminal elf, lost her beloved cookbook, "A Feast for the Gods", written by celebrity chef Gordo Ramsieve (that he stole) after visiting the Witchlight carnival.

Before the events of the campaign, Elphaba grew up as Elphride Enora, born into poverty and learned to become a thief as a young elf, distancing himself from most of society in his hometown, Betula Pendula. He was blonde and dotted with freckles, with eyes that shone a dusty brown. She grew to become an excellent cook after being mentored in a juvenile detention center (or whatever the equivalent is). This never remedied his tendency to swindle and steal, especially now with ingredients and cookbooks.

Despite this, there was a brief period of time where he was barely committing any criminal activity. Picked to become a personal knight for the royal family, an emerging adult Elphaba was especially tasked with protecting their one and only precious son, Urmoira Rainbreath, no matter where he was. This was another punishment, but to his surprise, Elphaba enjoyed the company of Urmoira and his family. However, the prince wanted more than royalty and ruling a kingdom, so Elphaba aided him in faking his death. Unfortunately, he did not anticipate being framed for the "murder" of Urmoira, so of course she fled from her hometown on a stolen horse, barely able to say a final farewell to his own father or the prince.

Exiled, Elphride Enora now became Elphaba Briarwood, her new surname inspired by his leg being caught in a bush of roses while traveling. She dyed her hair brown to conceal her identity and wears non-elvish-looking clothing to separate herself from any settlement or city. Elphaba had been wandering from town to town, searching for the latest cookbooks and rarest of ingredients.
