DAPHNE

Daphne is originally from Last Hope, but was given a different name as a girl, one she barely remembers. Given an accumulation of factors - her family´s poor reputation, the deaths of her mother and her siblings, the disgrace of her brothers and sisters - she fled as a child. Wandering the world, she first found her way as a fisherwoman, mending nets and casting a line from a boat in a village whose name she barely remembers. She then found herself inspired by the Old Faith and traveled to holy sites as a pilgrim. Meeting a sage, she worked with her as a student of the Occult until her mistress´ mysterious death. Finding herself on the road once again, Daphne found herself in a village stricken with the Plague. She remembers little of the period but finding herself once again on the road, her face horribly disfigured and her body broken. In a daze, she found her way back to Last Hope, living off alms despite a reserve of coin taken from her former mistress. She subsisted for a while sweeping the church, until the death of [the priest] and even helping out the local law enforcement, given her ability to go unnoticed. She has not looked her father up since her return.

Backstory

She´s hideously scarred from disease, ran away from home (but I think home was here and she returned, perhaps her family doesn´t know she is she because of the scarring), has/had nine siblings, the youngest of whom is famous (!?), has been a pilgrim and an academic (occult), has disreputable ancestors and three siblings are alive but disgraced. So, I reckon she has been living as a cleaner in the church until the priest died and has been aimless since then. I´d probably make her a rogue at level 1 although I might consider priest
