Scarlette never knew anything about her father, sans that he was human and died in the Great War. Her elven mother raised her in a secluded wood, far from society. In her youth she became very close to an elderly woman who taught her how to use a bow and arrow, strictly for the purpose of protecting the ones she loved. Her mother disapproved of the weapon, forcing Scarlette to train in secret. When she found out, she forbid Scar from even seeing the woman again, who had become a nurturing figure in Scarette's life. Outraged, Scarlette berated her mother, spewing hatred towards her, and ran away. Regretting what she had done to her loving mother who only wanted the best for her, Scar came back prepared to make amends. To her horror, her small village had been destroyed by undead creatures under the influence of dark magic, released unto the village by an evil necromancer attempting to snuff out any sparks of rebellion against Enor, which were virtually non-existent in the pacifistic village. The tragedy awoke a spark in Scarlette, and the newly adult elf made it her mission to use her archery prowess to fight against Enor in the Phoenix Revolution. During this time, she met a man who knew her father during the War. She discovered that her middle name was Zeka, after Eze'kiel Tarus of the ruling counsel. She also met an elven man equally as devoted to the cause, and they fell in love. They never consummated their love, not wishing to become official during the chaos of rebellion, but promising to find one another after. To this day she searches for the one man who broke down her walls and showed her unconditional love. She can only hope he is alive.
Scarlette took a step back and crossed her arms, immediately suspicious. She eyed him with inquisition and attempted to dissect his motives.
"I'm here on a quest, a search if you will. What's it to you?"
