Myrin Darkdance

Myrin is a young spellscarred human wizard orginally from Westgate.

Abilities
Myrin has one of the most powerful spellscars known to exist. She is able to absorb and use the magical abilities of any creature she comes into contact with (similar to the power of a spellthief). Fayne hinted that part of Mystra might be trapped inside Myrin and she believed Myrin would eventually bring about the destruction of the world by siphoning and then accidentally unleashing the magic of an extremely powerful being. This may have been the motivation of Lilten when he attempted to kidnap Myrin because as a follower of Beshaba, the ultimate misfortune he could cause the world would be its destruction.

History
Myrin's origins are largely unknown. In her first appearance, she appeared in Waterdeep from time-to-time as a weeping young woman surrounded by blue flame.

In 1479 DR, the Paladin Kalen Dren came across Myrin's spectre and rescued her from the patch of Spellplague she was trapped in. Kalen befriended Myrin and took her back to the rowhouse he shared with his adopted sister Cellica and the two nursed Myrin back to health.

Kalen later escorted Myrin to a costume ball at the temple of Sune in Waterdeep. Myrin was abducted from the ball by minions of Beshaba's high priest, Lilten. However, she was able to escape when she drained the magic of a lich and then turned the power against the creature. Unfortunately, she nearly destroyed most nearby buildings.

Myrin was later kidnapped by another of Lilten's employees, Rath, who imprisoned her in a belltower. She was once again rescued by Kalen who captured Rath and turned him over to the city watch. As thanks for Kalen's actions, Myrin siphoned some of the spellplague that was killing Kalen out of his body.

Relationships
Myrin had a crush on Kalen and was heartbroken when he slept with Fayne.

Appearance
Myrin has unusual features that make her origin difficult to place. Although she believes herself to be from Westgate, Myrin has dusky skin, slightly pointed ears, and appears to be partly half-elf, Calishite, or possibly Mulan. She is very thin, apparently from a lack of eating or an extremely fast metabolism. When she uses her spellscar, glowing blue runes appear on her skin.
