Sharitha, tomboy archer

A player character in The Road through the Ruins.

A handsome Zamorian girl probably in her late teens, fairly tall and leanly muscled. Her athletic build and strong features have allowed her to pass for a young man with relative ease when called for, in the past, but it's getting trickier. She's dressed for travel in the colorful mercenary fashion, in ragtag garb looted piecemeal from here and there and slashed and tied to fit her.

Always a headstrong and adventurous child, Sharitha ran away from the village years ago, dressed as a boy, to join a passing mercenary band. After some misadventures in the west she's now returned home only to find what little family she had dead and the village enslaved. When she heard of the others leaving on their quest, she thought they had the right idea and struck out after them, finally catching up at the city of Taza...
