Biography
Nydia is the last heir to the conquered Kingdom of Awelon, formerly situated on the Crobhear River. It was a trading kingdom that made it's fortune from tolls of ships transiting the spine via river and road around Crobhear Lake. One morning, a band of marauders led by several members of the Bastard Council rode through the kingdom. The mercenaries and Blight Orcs that rode with the Bastards of Menalus made quick work of the defenses of the Kingdoms capital, Crobhear. All that is left behind are ruins manned by Blight Orcs and stories of the survivors who had been taken in by the nearby Dwarven holds, then filtering to other cities as the years passed.
Nydia was born into this diaspora, the last heir born to parents who remembered their home, but could only instill longing in their child. Nydia found refuge in the faith of her people and the Church of Zakon, the Star Wolf. From an early age, she learned the teachings and helped the priests and paladins of the Church to tend to the refugees of Awelon. Eventually, her band of refugees ended up in Alliria, and the Church of Zakon set up a small chapel attached to the residence of the now exiled royal family.
