History

Heir to Crow Manor in [Queensdale/DR]. A daughter blessed by Lyssa. Alexandrya Crow was born to the noble Crow family to [mother and father], with a little sister, Ysabella, following her nine years later. Skilled in the art of mesmer magic, Alexandrya showed promise of becoming a formidable Countess following the reign of her parents.

However, the death of her father left the seat of Count open, despite her mother's protests. His brother, her ambitious and sneering uncle, insisted that the family, their lands, and most importantly, their business and bank could not be trusted with a lesser noblewoman who had married into their ranks. Meeting little resistance, he kicked out her mother, her sister, and Alexandrya, who was too young to fight for her or her mother's places as Countess.

Heartbroken and afraid, her mother scoured for help on the streets of Divinity's Reach, finding little to aid her aside from pity. It was only when she encounted a travelling merchant who spoke of the sanctity of Wizard's Fief in Kessex Hills did she find hope, asking him on her hands and knees to take her and her daughters there. On the back of his wagon in tow by a pair of dolyak, they made their departure from the Reach, travelling across Queensdale onto southern soil.

When they reached Wizard's Fief, the merchant introduced him to his hometown of Garenhoff, an enchanting little township protected by the elementals controlled by a benevolent wizard in the sky. [mother] was most thankful, and set to finding a home for her and her children. Despite never working a day in her life, her passion for her family drove her to learn, and soon she became the apprentice of the local baker. She became quite good at the art of baking, and in the years that followed their great escape, she had found love with the mentor who taught her.

Alexandrya, on the other hand, spent those years training herself with her magic. Though she had no teachers here to help her, she did her best on her own. At times, Ysabella would encourage her and inspire her to try new things. When she created her first perfect clone, one who could speak and act like her, and cast magic in her place, Alexandrya knew she had mastered her magic - at least, as best she could with a lack of resources.

Wanting to search for a better teacher, and for experiences that would help her grow as a mage, she pleaded with her mother to let her leave their safe haven. She and her step-father declined over and over, until one day her little sister encouraged her to leave. Believing wholly in the greatness that lay ahead, Ysabella convinced both their mother and their new father to accept her decision, and at first light on her 21st birthday, Alexandrya left.
