ABOUT Ori stands at a diminutive 5'5", with those last few inches being her horns. With purple, pink-splotched skin, and long, borderline-unkempt, flowery hair, she tends to stand out even amongst others of her kind, as much as her aura might suggest that she does not wish to be perceived. She is a kind-hearted, well-meaning and oft-uncertain druid who tries to use her mysterious magic for the good of others. After helping an old friend and other adventurers find clues on the whereabouts of a missing princess, they stumble into potentially world-ending machinations. And so Ori is called into the adventuring life once more in search of her younger sister with whom she's lost touch.
PERSONALITY This is a young woman who has spent much of her life trying to take up as little space as possible - happy to let others take the spotlight while she plays the role of a supportive teammate or friend, happy to help everybody except herself. It's not until she embarks on this new adventure that she begins to come into her own. Every now and then, Ori will speak her mind, become more comfortabe in her own skill and get more confident in her abilities— though it's all a work in progress, naturally.
BACKSTORY Oriphi and her younger sister Valphi were seemingly abandoned by their parents at a young age, left in a small village that had little room in it for two orphans. They were taken in by an elderly man named Gerrell Caskridge, life in the village became difficult when magic began to manifest in the girls from a young age, with Val discovering her sorcery and Ori experiencing visions and dreams of what she would later come to know as the Feywild. Without proper knowledge and training, Val's magic was increasingly dangerous and Ori's increasingly mysterious as it drew her to the woods time and time again, often returning with little to no memory of what she had been doing or where she had gone. Eventually, the two sisters left the village, eventually finding their way into a mercenary group called the Fangs of the Fox.

Valphi excelled as a mercenary - Oriphi, on the other hand, did not, and the longer she was in the Fangs the stronger her desire grew to escape into the woods as she used to as a child and feel closer to the realm in her dreams. Eventually, the sisters parted ways to pursue different paths, with Val quickly rising through the ranks with the Fangs and Ori wandering and searching for Fey Crossings. There, she met a druid who taught her to focus her magic to draw from and strengthen her bond with the Feywild. Oriphi eventually began to travel to different towns in a humble life of healing and using her magic to bring wonder and joy into their lives - at least until a greater adventure would find her and put her on a path to reunite with her sister.

...And all the while, deep in the Feywild, the druid who had served as Oriphi's mentor lurks, awaiting the day that the tiefling woud uncover the truth behind her parents' disappearance and the very nature of her own powers.
