Orianna was born to a minor noble house sworn to those controlling a city-state in the coast. Despite being low in the line of succession to an insignificant house, as a noblewoman she grew up comfortably and was expected to comply with the duties coming with the position. Among them, was sealing an alliance through marriage with the renowned velvet merchants guild of Istria.
Marriage proved liberating for both Orianna and her husband. Neither was particularly thrilled about it, and in time they struck a deal to cover for one another as they pursued their own goals. While her husband is busy politicking in the court, Orianna became finally free to set off to see the world and prove her worth in her own right. They have a friendly relationship, catching up and helping each other when they cross paths, but they're not in love and agreed to discreetly pursue their own romantic interests.
Characteristics (Folk Hero / Noble)
Feature
Rustic Hospitality with a touch of Privilege: You can find a place to hide, rest, or recuperate among other commoners, unless you have shown yourself to be a danger to them. They will shield you from the law or anyone else searching for you, though they will not risk their lives for you.
When aware of your noble birth, the common folk make every effort to accommodate you and avoid your displeasure, and other people of high birth treat you as a member of the same social sphere. You can secure an audience with a local noble if you need to.
