Backstory

Sasana's line runs back generations, to Yokuda and the city of Hammerfell, and to a Redguard warrior woman of peerless skill who rose from peasant to captain of the King's guard. The King's enemies set a necromancer's Dremora against her. She cut them all down save one, a prince among his kind, who overpowered her and left her for dead in the streets. She survived but fled the city in disgrace, and not long after bore a daughter she abandoned at a temple.

The priests who found the child knew at once she was no ordinary infant, and a mage confirmed her powers were demonic in nature. Rather than kill her, they raised her and trained her in magic and archery to turn against their enemies. She escaped, embraced her nature, and the tainted bloodline carried on for generations, each child a little less corrupted than the last.

Sasana was born of that line twenty-four years ago. As she learned her family's past, she grew determined to master her Dremoran blood and redeem her name in the eyes of the gods, turning tainted blood to good ends. Trained from childhood in magic and archery, she became an enemy of all evil, demons and the undead most of all. She traveled to Skyrim on word of the returning dragons, and at Morthal she sensed something strange at work in the town. Lately she has been seen in the company of the Heartbow Rangers, and some say she may soon be counted among their ranks.Character Details
