Florozt'a

Florozt'a, who more commonly went by Rozt'a, was a traveling guardswoman that offered her services throughout the Western Heartlands during the mid–14 century DR.

Description
She was a tall and broad-shouldered woman,

Her unruly blonde hair was kept short, cut just above her ears.

Rozt'a had a bad temper and was not shy about openly sharing her thoughts on any given subject.

Relationships
Rozt'a became infatuated with her traveling companion Druhallen shortly after their meeting, while she simultaneously gained the affections of his foster brother and dearest friend Galimer. While she and Dru enjoyed a relationship for a year or two, along with a year-long engagement that was more-or-less endured, the mage did not love Rozt'a as she did him.

History
Some time around, Rozt'a began working as a personal bodyguard for a captain of the Zhentilar in Triel, but was forced to defend herself after he made advances on her one too many times. With no possessions beyond her sword and the clothes she was wearing, Rozt'a left the city east along the Dusk Road where she offered her services to two traveling wizards, Druhallen and Galimer.

Rozt'a and Dru stayed together for a few years, until she was blessed with an unexpected pregnancy in the. While staying in some town on their journey home to Scornubel via Berdusk, Rozt'a shared the wonderful news with Druhallen and he reacted poorly. Their argument drew the attention of the local town guard and Druhallen left his two companions and did not return until the following spring a couple months later. Devastated by the loss of her fiancé, Rozt'a found consolation with Galimer and he offered her the proposal he wished he could have years earlier. While the two were wed, Rozta's unborn daughter did not make it to childbirth. Rozt'a nearly died herself, but was kept alive by the Berduskan clergy of Chauntea at the city's local temple.

Galimer had lined up work for the pair throughout the rest of Spring and Summer, but with Rozt'a recovering in town and his limited skill with the arcane arts, the couple was in dire need of help. While Druhallen offered to help the young couple earn enough money to start their family in earnest some months later, Galimer informed him the Chauntean priests said that was not possible due to what Rozt'a's body had previously endured. With no other prospects or plans for the future, the trio would set out on the road once again.

Before they left Berdusk however, they met a young urchin boy named Tiep. Seeing as he had no family and not nearly enough food to eat, Rozt'a's maternal instincts led her and Galimer to adopt the lad as their own son.
