Bliss is the daughter of Iruvian merchants who settled in Doskvol to build their business there. Things were going well until her father was betrayed by a close friend and the family lost everything. He was sentenced to death for a crime he didn’t commit and her mother took her own life. Bliss attempted to do the same by throwing herself into the Ink Sea. She would’ve died in the ebony depths save for a soothing voice that promised her the power take vengeance. A power to be given if she let the voice guide her. She accepted and the demon Setarra lifted her from a watery grave…

Bliss learned the old ways of magic. She dined with a demon and danced with the dead. She fashioned her mask from the skinned face of her family’s betrayer, his battered and broken spirit bound to the skin to power its magic. Nobody would recognize the face from the haphazard stitching that seems to subtly shift. Few can stare without soon looking away from the patchwork man-leather mask with the rictus grin.

One of our daughters…who had never played an RPG before…made that up for the one-shot I ran. I am so proud!

  1. Jakob Oesinghaus, thank you. Some parents are proud when their kids get good grades or a great job. I’m proud that my kid made Duskwall’s Buffalo Bill.

    (Now I’m just fucking it up! 😝)
