Braila

Personal History

Braila, a strong and hefty muscular female orc with striking blue skin and beady red eyes, had an unusual start to her life. Trained in communication from a young age, she lived in a peaceful temple until a brutal raid forced her into the streets. It was there she encountered the Black Hand, a notorious crime family, and found a new purpose. Known as the Whispered Hand, Braila has honed her skills in detecting and intercepting messages, thoughts, and scrying on people. Her talents made her an invaluable asset to the Black Hand, and she quickly rose through the ranks. Despite her rough exterior, Braila has a keen interest in fine food and alcohol, becoming a mean cook. She often works directly with Brakkar and can run the Pick and Pint tavern when needed.
