Personal history

My mother was a shadow cursed human. The curse came from a battle she had with some shadow beings. The curse hindered her magic causing it to go awry. She was visiting a tribe of moon elves in an attempt to have the curse removed.
 
She was abducted in a drow surface raid. My conception is a result of her poor treatment at the hands of the drow. After they determined that the aura of magic surrounding her from the curse was useless, she was cast into the stench streets of Menzoberranzan, the place of my birth. She worked as a prostitute trying to earn enough gold to pay a traveling merchant to take us to the surface. The brothel she worked at kept her in perpetual debt with high interest rates but it’s the Mordant Vapor ("Dreammist") that trapped her there.
 
Over the years I happened to befriend a noble youth named Thelius. Thelius and I were kindred spirits in that we found the cruelty of the drow distasteful and unnecessary. We hatched a plot to steal a luck blade from a trophy case in Melee Magvere, an elite drow training facility.
 
During our attempt we drew too much attention and in an act of desperation Thelius sacrificed himself sending me to the surface. He stayed behind to take the blame allowing me to escape. His reasoning was that he was of a noble house the punishment would be more lenient. I was a nobody from the stench streets, I would not be noticed or missed. I was to go to the surface to establish a base and return for him when I could.
 
I proceeded further down the passage and called on the magic of the luck blade. Inside the blade an efreeti had been trapped. It promised to grant my wish of going to the surface if I take the blade with me to a witch named Tamara. I believe I have earned the enmity of a demon by releasing the efreeti. It calls to me in my dreams.
 
When I arrived on the surface I was able to determine from prior research that I was indeed on the surface but across the ocean from the continent of my birth. I was able to locate and deliver the sword to the individual Tamara and offered my arcane skills. It turns out that my mother's curse was my blessing. While the curse inhibited her magic, it merely augmented my own innate talents. I spent the last 3 years working with Tamara's organization as an associate.
 
These last few years I have been trying to fulfill my promise to Thelius. I’m applying with a secretive organization in an attempt to establish myself here on the surface. I’ve learned so much these last few years.
 
*That's how Sornafein became associated with the shadow network of 8 Fingers (That was 3 years ago.)*
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
*Unknown to Sornafein, Thelius was given to the spider queen and has since been turned into a drider.*
 
 
*A demon named Jixtus keeps tabs on Sornafein waiting for a time when Sornafein is strong enough to be useful. It wants to punish Sornafein for releasing the demon's adversary (the efreeti) and will stop at nothing to do so. {this is fluff for later character building}*
