I would not lie to you, my Queen.
Summary
Torrah is an ex-soldier who takes absolutely no shit from anyone. She found a new direction in life after the Lightbringer welcomed her amongst his ranks, and now she fights as a Paladin of Vengeance against all fiends.
Appearance
Torrah towers at 8 feet tall, with thick greyish-blue skin marbled with tiger stripe-like patterning. She has an upside-downt riangle shaped figure, with visible thick muscles. Her black hair is usually kept not much longer than shoulder length, and is streaked with grey. Torrah has an ice blue eye and a glowing yellow one, which was gifted to her by the Lightbringer when she accepted the offer to join his ranks. The area around is is still scarred and burnt, however.
Personality
Kindness is not really in Torrah's nature- she's very brash and rude, and will not sugar coat her words to anyone, including friends. Despite this, she has a great sense of humour and does not take a lot of things in life seriously anymore- well known now for some of her quips in the midst of very serious situations.

Story
Torrah was born to the chief of the Akanthanali tribe, just north of Stonespire town. Her father and mother wished dearly to regain their culture after it had long been lost by generations of Goliaths becoming reckless and dying young, which led to Torrah herself becoming a fairly traditional adult. She spent several years as a Sunwatcher Sentinel, guarding the tribe from threats overnight and into dawn. Eventually though, she was struck by wanderlust, and did some jobs within Stonespire until recruiting officers for the Demonic Defense Force swung by. She left with them and enrolled, eventually being liked and trusted enough by her superiors to lead her own troop- and that's what she did, for a few years. On the job, she had become very close with a combat medic named Sul, and the two very quickly fell in love and were engaged after two years time. Torrah adored Sul, who contrasted her rough exterior with gentleness. Unfortunately for Torrah, Sul was a fiend in disguise playing the long game, and was able to lure her and her troop into a false sense of security- where they were all ambushed. Torrah was the only surviving and unharmed one, and she ran to the City of Vyakagrad for safety. Word had gotten back to the Military council that Torrah had abandoned her troop to die, and she was publicly and dishonourably discharged before being exiled. She left the city on foot, coming face to face with Sul, who attempted to kill her, but Torrah clung onto life long enough to be picked up by a passing merchant wagon and rushed to a hospital to be treated. Once she had recovered enough to hobble about, she had heard of a Demon that was being summoned into a town called Eastport, heading there and meeting a few others with similar goals. The group that eventually totaled 6 would come to be known as the Dawnchasers, and would work together for a further two years until disbanding. Torrah then decided to join the Champions of the Sky, seeking a permanent home there.
Relationships
Leonora
Leonora and Torrah have been dating for a while now, although Leo lives away from the island as an Ex-Champion. The two seem to have become romantically interested with eachother after being on a quest in the Feywild together, and Leo was the first to bring it up. Despite Torrah's trust issues in relationships, she was willing to give it a good try.
Riposa
Riposa is a member of the dawnchasers, and one that Torrah has repeatedly butted heads with. Despite their differences (and similarities) that make them both fight, Torrah respects Riposa as an equal.
Nai'avain
Nai'avain is a member of the dawnchasers, and one Torrah admittedly worries about. Nai'avains distrust of others and general skittishness has been an issue while they traveled together, but after they were the one to save the group from a fire giant, Torrah gained an immense amount of respect for them.
Lucais
Lucais is a member of the dawnchasers, and one Torrah has had mixed feelings on in the past. She feels like she can confide in him, but also is frustrated about that, and has lashed out verbally a few times in the past. She has apologised for each time that happened though, and the two remain good friends to this day.
Ezra
Ezra was a member of the dawnchasers, and Torrah's favourite to tease. The wizard was an easy target- including being the easiest to throw about. Even though Ezra seems to have retired from adventuring now, Torrah still appreciates her and visits from time to time.
Carona
Carona is a member of the Dawnchasers. Torrah appreciates her for just how normal she is, though she'll never forget when she was a Goblin Queen- literally thinks it was the funniest shit ever.
Extra
Torrah is a level 5 Battlemaster fighter, and a level 5 Paladin of Vengeance!
