Iara Ravens

Iara Ravens, the shadow that glides unnoticed, was once the heart of The Pirates of the Tempest's Fang. Her name whispered among thieves and pirates alike, she became a legend not because of the treasures she stole, but because no one ever saw her take them.
Born in the gutters of a port city long forgotten, Iara grew up navigating a world that demanded survival through silence and subtlety. Even as a child, her footsteps were ghosts in the alleyways, her hands quicker than a magician’s sleight. What she couldn’t steal, she learned to manipulate, always thinking several steps ahead. By the Time she reached adulthood, her reputation as a master thief was cemented, and she found her place aboard The Tempest’s Fang.
It wasn’t long before she became the crew’s de facto Rogue, teaching the art of misdirection, stealth, and the delicate dance of evasion to those who wished to learn. Iara wasn’t one for formal titles, nor did she crave power within the crew. For her, it was about the thrill of the job, the quiet satisfaction that came with outsmarting guards, slipping past defenses, and leaving without a trace. Her loyalty to the Fang was unmatched, but she often kept her distance emotionally, wrapping herself in layers of mystery even among those she called her shipmates.
When Nimble Golden Lion found herself in the clutches of pirates, it was Iara who saw something in the young Monkeyfolk’s playful nature and quick hands. Unlike others who might have dismissed Nimble as a troublemaker, Iara recognized potential. She took Nimble under her wing, offering guidance with a mixture of tough love and dark humor. Lessons were rarely spoken aloud, often demonstrated through action. A disappearing coin, a stolen map, the quiet swoop of a cloak over a wall—Nimble learned to follow in Iara’s footsteps through imitation as much as instruction.
Iara's teachings went beyond stealth, though. She instilled in Nimble the value of patience and control, the need to assess a situation before acting. Iara always said that a true rogue doesn't just move unseen; they bend the situation to their favor, making the world believe that they never existed at all. It was from Iara that Nimble learned the true code of The Tempest's Fang—stealing not for greed, but as a form of liberation, balancing the scales between those with power and those without.
Though Iara kept her secrets close, one truth was undeniable—her mastery over shadows, her ability to slip through the cracks of the world, and her belief that every treasure had a story. Iara would never admit it, but her bond with Nimble was the closest thing she had to family. Even now, Nimble carries the lessons of the elusive rogue with her, every step a silent tribute to the woman who taught her the art of disappearing.
