Bio:
A lamia from Ator, the city of the desert. Forty years old, Laila is still, by lamian standards, a relative youth with many years ahead of her. She (along with her half-dozen clutch-siblings) was born not all that long before war broke out between the Vangian Kingdom and the Republic/Sultanate allies. Life in the desert was hard, but the war was distant and Laila's family prospered.
Tragedy struck one day shortly after the lamia became an adult. A great and terrible feral wyvern, known by many in the region as Ator's Fury due to the perfect desert camouflage provided by its scales, descended upon the el-Sylla camp in the dead of night when the snakepeople were most sluggish. Several of Laila's siblings were slain; even her skilled warrior of a father was forever crippled before the beast could be driven away.
Though diminished, the family was still fairly large by human standards and struggled to make ends meet with their primary breadwinner unable to do any useful work. The family gave up their nomadic ways and settled permanently in Ator, where many of the older lamia took whatever jobs they could, but still the young Laila went to bed hungry many a night.
While most lamia, male or female, know how to dance, Laila had won several small competitions with her skill at the art. While this was not a particularly well-paying talent in Ator, where nearly half the population was lamia, it was considered quite valuable in places where few lamia had settled; most particularly in the port city of Yenn's Landing, which had been conquered from the Vangs only a few years ago. The city was a bustling place, with hundreds coming and going every day. Though it pained her to bid farewell to her family, Laila decided to seek her fortune in the strange city. She became a tavern dancer, and sent half of her weekly pay back to Ator to support her family.
Even after the change in ownership, many Vang still lived in the city and lamented the dire straits their once-proud kingdom had fallen into as of late. Being something of an open-minded and outgoing sort, the lamia found herself sympathizing with the plight of a land not her own, and began seeking ways to be of assistance to her dispossessed neighbors. It took a great deal of time, being an outsider and non-human to boot, but eventually Laila managed to meet with some knowledgable men who told her about a certain Lady Sen...
