You can immediately develop a rapport with others in your line of work, and gain a great deal of insight into influential members of the community and the criminal element of the region. BACKSTORY Ember did not have the beginning that a lot of other girls had, so an unpleasant, fat, disgusting creature took that away from her. He also took her mother and father, he lost a pendant and blamed her father for stealing it. Ember had to watch as he was dragged off to the cells with no trial, her mother was killed for protecting her (Ember) and Ember was given to this pig as a slave. All this at the tender age of 14, after a year or so she was put to work in a whore house owned by him, Lord Vileous De Sewerstien. It was on her 18th birthday that her life took an upturn, he came in drunk and demanded me. He looked ill and was wearing his finest pendant, the one he accused my father of stealing. Ember fed him more alcohol, the really strong stuff and he died there and then. Ember took everything off him and called for the city watch, once they had taken the body away Enber went to the other side of town and paid for a room. She then went back to the brothel and collected her things, most of the girls did the same and then fled. Five days later Ember turned up at Vances Acadamy of Adventure and paid her fee in full, she had paid a fine to have her father freed and gave him some money to set up a smithery.   So here she was, Ember was going to become a wizard. Having written to them and gotten a reply back, Ember had brought everything that she owned which was not that much. Ember had also brought a number of items that would be required such as a backpack and a spellbook. Ember was shown to her dorm and met some of the other girls, Ember was not the oldest nor the youngest. She was the most outrageous though, one or two of the girls flirted with her and she was fine with that, one couple, in particular, was always with her and rumours quickly spread. Ember worked hard in her studies and practised religiously to get her spells right, in her spare time she would chat with the others or occasionally she would sit on her own and try to remember the fun times with her mother. The picnics, the games and the stories kept her calm and would put a smile on her face, a visitor came to the academy to see one of the trustees. He was a former client and as soon as he saw her he began to panic, his wife and his children were with him. Ember was not the sort to twist a knife and did not approach him, she simply gave him a nod and a smile.   Graduation day came around too soon, Ember had been into the woods a few times and had fought with the occasional thug, polar bear , wolves and even a friggin owlbear, good job she was with a few others. Her experience grew as she had paid one of the lecturers to give her some extra tutelage, being a war wizard Ember could theoretically join the armed forces but that did not appeal to her. All she wanted to do was to delve into places that held monsters and treasure, find lost knowledge, and make her father proud of her. She had gone back to Neverwinter and spoke to her father, he had brought a headstone for her mother's grave and Ember had placed some flowers there. Ember could not stay long as the DeSewerstiens might want "a word" with her, they had left her father alone as he was inside when Vileous died. The last night at the academy was crazy, Ember was the life of the party. She had been seen with a number of cadets (and at least one female lecturer), she sat up in bed the next day and Benny and his girl Jenny were also waking up. The three looked at each other and laughed, Ember dressed and grabbed her things and got a ride into Luskan. Once she had found an Inn with a room she began to look for work, any job that paid well enough would do, joining a party would be better.
