| Background History | |
| Origin: | Kathleen was born in Travar. Her father was a local magician who sold his wares and spellcasting to their community. Her childhood was pleseant until her father went mad, "horror tainted" according to their neighbors. Her father ultimately ended up wandering the streets of Travar begging and talking incoherantly about horrors and their magics. He is left alone by most people because he has never really posed a threat, though people do periodically wonder if he really is "horror tainted" or not. Kathleen managed to keep herself and her father fed over the years, turning what little Wizardry her father had been able to teach her and her natural talent for working with people into a series of jobs which kept them fed and housed. Eventually she fell in love with a young air sailor working out of the port in Travar and they made arrangements to marry.
Their plans ended with the tragedy of the Crimson Dawn where her fiance died fighting the horrors which attacked his ship. During and after the crash, Kathleen met Kavros and enventually the rest of their companions. When word that the horrors which had destroyed the Crimson Dawn might be destroyed using an ancient tome lost in a distant kaer, Kathleen insisted on coming with the adventurers. She has been with the adventurers ever since, having choosen to leave Travar for a while.
