Editing Annaliese Claymoor (Isle of Storms)

Character in [[Isle_of_Storms]]

= Annaliese Claymoor =

Annaliese Claymoor was born in a rural village off the beaten path. Her family were homesteaders, farming and ranching in an out of the way place. She was the oldest daughter of Patrock and Yemalla Claymoor. Patrock died when she was four and Yemalla married Tomal Serinay a few years later. They had eight more kids all five or more years younger than Ana. Yemalla died in childbirth of her last son and Ana ended up raising the children as Tomal became more interested in spending time at night at an inn a mile down the road. One night, when Ana was 19 she demanded Tomal stay home so she could spend time with her sweetheart Jace. Jace lived in the small village, working at the general store. He did the books and was skilled with some minor magics. The few times she was able to spend time with him, he taught her a few magic runes. She had a knack for it but only when she worked slowly, deliberately.

After several weeks complaining Tomal finally relented. That night Ana and Jace had their first real date. Jace walked her home from the nearby inn and when then arrived, the barn and the farmhouse were on fire. Jace ran toward the house and was shot in the chest with a crossbow bolt from raiding bullywugs. Ana managed to stay out of sight and approached the house more carefully. At the house she found her siblings and step-father's bodies hung in the courtyard. With no concern for herself, she calmly walked into the farmhouse, retrieved her father's old rapier from the mantle, and killed every last bullywug on the property. How she did this, she does not know. She does not care. She just knows when she sees red, she survives. Part of the way through the fight, she picked up a shield that was laying in the grass. She carries it to this day.

With no reason to remain on the farm. She found what few undestroyed belongings she could, including Jace's spell book, and returned to the town. She stayed the night in the inn where the innkeeper tried to get her stick around as a nighttime companion. She nearly killed him in her disgust and left town hoping to find meaning to live. As long as it was far from the small, smoldering farm in the middle of nowhere.
