Faerûn: Jaina

You are Jaina, a drow wizard dwelling in Menzoberranzan. Your pitch-black skin and stark-white hair mark you as one of the dark elves who rule this vast Underdark city, though you keep to yourself and maintain no allegiance to any noble house. You stand in the public area of the Braeryn Academy in the noble quarter of Menzoberranzan, surrounded by towering stalactites that pierce through the cavern ceiling. The academy's marble floors and elegant architecture reflect the wealth of the noble houses that fund its operation. Several other drow students mill about, their whispered conversations and soft footsteps echoing off the stone walls. A female drow instructor named Mistress Ysolde approaches you, her red eyes narrowing as she studies your stance and the arcane energy crackling around your fingers. "Jaina," she says, "I trust you've completed the assignment I gave you last tenday?"
