Pathfinder blurb

Greetings! I, Wistawit Mithraltongue, have been asked by my colleagues to enter into the Memories my story, as it stands upon my initiation. I hereby proclaim that everything I inscribe here is the stoneclad truth.

I am a young female Gnome of sixty-four years, a decade of which I have spent in service to the worshipers of the Brother in Chains as an acolyte. Now, I am an ordained cleric of Karl with full leave to spread His passion and proselytize in His name. I was drawn to the service by the compassion of His followers, and I too hope to act for the good of others! My hobbies are fishing, writing, and being an incorrigible flirt.

My close family lives on my grandmother's estate. She - that is, Lejet Gildedheart, was a Knight of some renown back in the day! She distinguished herself in the second Dark Elf Rebellion, organizing and leading a contingent of miners against overwhelming odds in the style of the gnomes - numerous mischievous blows to their supplies, sabotaging key sites and equipment, rigging tunnels to collapse, and avoiding direct bloodshed as much as possible. She was appointed Knight after the conflict ended and was regarded by the dwarves as a war hero. Even if she didn't literally have a heart of gold, she was as brave and just as any brother in arms. She took the surname Gildedheart after that and eventually moved to her estate, where she wiles away the years of her mid two-hundreds in joint partnership of a jewelsmithing firm. She was considered for Lordship a few times by the electorate, but never quite got there. Probably for the better, she's happy enough without the extra responsibilities. She's a warm person who enjoys spending time with her grandchildren.

My mother, Trini Irontooth, is a shrewd business woman who oversees exports of Gnomish and Dwarven luxury goods to the Capital. She's not unkind, but she's very goal oriented and driven and is busy most of the time. She sees mercantile as a game to be played - one with exciting risks and thrills - and she's very good at it most of the time. Occasionally, however, her love of gambling (both literal and with her job) can take a toll. It's always fast paced with her around, and even when she's home she usually only has time for her domestic partners - Uncle Abaldar, Uncle Paqqur and Aunt Mesha.

I'm the second child of my mother, and I have five siblings! My older sister, Lecksi, is primed for a position in nanna's company. My younger siblings are Calum, Dolment, and the twins, Besh and Sesh, none of whom are adults just yet, though Calum's close to the big four-oh!

My older sister never played with me much as a child, and I preceded my siblings by a couple of decades so my childhood was often spent wandering the tunnels of our city and getting to know the locals. Everyone was so friendly and willing to teach me as much as I was willing to ask, and you know well enough how inquisitive gnomish kids are! I want to give something back. That, and the followers of Karl always had a kindness and togetherness that appealed to me. I hope to do you all proud!

OOC Note: The Lord that calls on Wista's services might be the same Lord (or a descendant thereof) that first appointed her grandmother as a Knight.
