Fayne

Fayne is a fey'ri rogue who lives in Waterdeep. She is the product of a relationship between a Gold elf and a demoness. Fayne earns her coin through petty theft and by writing stories for a scandalous broadsheet known as the "Mocking Minstrel". She also undertakes missions for her father Lilten, the high priest of Beshaba. Her real name comes from the Elvish "elie en," which means "For Sorrow."

In 1479 DR Fayne attempted to scandalize Ilira Nathalan by using her powers of illusion to disguise herself as Ilira and then seducing a high ranking priestess of Sune named Lorien Dawnbringer. Unfortunately for Fayne, she wasn't aware that Ilira had a spellscar that caused her to burn the flesh of anyone she touched. When Fayne climbed into a bathtub with Lorien and began carressing her leg, Lorien immediately knew Fayne wasn't Ilira. Lorien removed Fayne's illusion and was about to turn her in to the guard when one of Lilten's agents burst into Lorien's chamber and slew Lorien. Fayne then escaped.

Fayne was tasked by her father to capture a young spellscarred wizard named Myrin but she was unsuccessful and was captured by the Paladin Kalen Dren. Lilten later broke Fayne out of the city watch's dungeon.

Equipment
Fayne has a magical wand to power her spells and an orb (a gift from Lilten) that allows her to change her appearance at will. (This talent may be a function of her racial heritage, as fey'ri have the ability to alter their appearance.)

Appearance
Fayne normally wears the illusion of a young half-elf, often a redhead. In her natural fey'ri form she has pink hair, pale skin, leathery wings and a tail. She has a nasty scar on her face where she was hit by a crossbow bolt fired by Ilira.

Personality
Although not completely without conscience, Fayne doesn't let little things like other people's well-being get in her way very often. A professional con artist and muckraker, she makes a living primarily by seducing various inhabitants of Waterdeep and then publishing stories about the encounters in her broadsheet.

Relationships
Fayne had a fondness for the Paladin Kalen Dren although she didn't allow her feelings to interfere with her attempt to poison him. Fayne hates the eladrin Ilira Nathalan who killed her mother.
