OVERVIEW:
Born to a commoner couple in Kirkwall, an elf and human, Raina Brailen was far from extraordinary. Though intelligent and willful, Raina was, for the most part, an obedient child, always following her mother’s guidance - so long as she knew it was for the best.
When Raina first showed the hints of magical ability, her parents sought to suppress it; to save her from a life in the Circle. Although she pretended to hide her abilities, in secret, Raina began to practice, pursuing the magical arts in the secret of Darktown. For a time, she was safe, practicing her magic in secluded corners and showing off for other children her age. It was all too easy - until she came across a cat whom she had befriended over the years, dying from wounds inflicted by a pair of cruel boys who had taken their anger out on it as punishment for Raina’s abilities.
Angry and unaware of the fact that she had been reported to the Templars, Raina resurrected the poor animal, trying to save it in desperation - only to be caught and dragged off to the Circle.
For years, Raina remained secluded in the Kirkwall Circle, trapped with her fellow mages for near a decade…
In order to feel some sense of control in her situation, Raina began finding a thrill in stealing small trinkets from mage and templar alike, stashing the items she took in a small corner of the dormitories where a loose brick revealed a small cubby.
For a few years, Raina was able to get away with her thefts, maintaining the appearance of a perfect circle mage, until, one day, she was found out… and, defiant as ever, was sentenced to become tranquil.
It was pure luck that a wandering Free Marches Grey Warden had come through the Circle, searching for recruits, and happened to take an interest in her before the discovery of her crimes. When it was revealed that she would be made Tranquil, Warden Midas stepped in and utilized the Rite of Transcription instead.
Grateful for her life, freedom, and mind, Raina willingly left the Kirkwall Circle in the hopes of finding what rumors indicated would be the beginning of a new Blight.
