Scarface

Dollface (a.k.a. Scarface)

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

Scarface is small, even by the standards of halflings.

Facial Features

Scarface's most notable features are her facial scars. They run over her left eye, over her right cheekbone, across her left temple, and down the right side of her chin. Were it not for them, she would have had a face much like a porcelain doll.

Apparel & Accessories

Dollface always keeps a hood over her head and tries to keep her head low to keep a shadow covering her face and its scars.

Mental characteristics

Personal history

Dollface was abandoned as an infant and raised by a kind, homeless human who gave her the name due to her glassy eyes and porcelain complexion. When she was around six years old, her caretaker passed away, leaving her to survive on scraps from anyone willing to let her follow them. At the age of ten, a group of human urchins around her age took her in. Together, they worked to protect each other and survive without any adult caretakers. She lived with them for six years until some of the other children noticed that she wasn't "growing up" with them. While they were getting taller, as children do, Dollface, being a Halfling, would not grow much more in height.
A few members of the group learned that she was a halfling by eavesdropping at a tavern. They felt betrayed that she never disclosed this to them and carved up her face with a stolen knife in a fit of rage. When the rest of the group found out, some of them took Dollface to see a healer, while others sought revenge on the perpetrators, leading to a violent brawl.
A couple of days later, after she had recovered, she found that many had died of their injuries. Some of those who survived started to develop filth fever. Having spent their coins to heal her, they were likely to succumb to it as well. She stayed with them and helped the few who were left unscathed to take care of the sick. However, most still died of the fever. The remaining members asked Scarface, as they now called her, to leave because they couldn't bear to look at her scars. It was not because they found her unattractive, but because it was a constant reminder of the tragedy that had cost them nearly all their friends.
She was nearing adulthood at this point, so she decided to try seeking work as an adventurer. She had a rough time of it because she still appeared to humans as a child, and no one wanted to send "a child" into danger. Then she came to a town that was paying tribute to an ogre. The mayor was asking for absolutely anybody not associated with them to go and deal with it. She joined a group of five others, all just traveling loners at the time, to head up to the ogre's lair. That marked her first successful adventure.

Education

Scarface never received a real education. She simply picked up a few tricks here and there from the people she followed.

Mental Trauma

The tragedy she went through with the urchins left severe mental scars, along with the physical ones. She can't stand to show her face to people and is very timid, even among those she knows well.

Personality Characteristics

Motivation

Dollface wants to help others in any way she can and doesn't care what others think of how she chooses to go about it. She feels her own life has already been such a tragedy that she hopes to leave the world a better place than she found it.
