Sheedra Lasoren

"'A paladin is sworn to valour. Her heart knows only virtue, her blade defends the helpless, her might upholds the weak, her word speaks only truth, her wrath undoes the wicked.'"

When Evil Stirs
A devout paladin of Vandria, the goddess of justice and vigilance, Sheedra Lasoren is no stranger to the darkness that dwells in the dark corners of Malexia. In fact, some would say she's quite acquainted with it. Since her earliest days in training at the Temple of Vandria, Sheedra was quite sensitive to her goddess' forewarning of danger. Her premonitions and detailed visions of the future made many in the clergy wary of her, and many more began to question the origin of her gifts. One night, Sheedra's slumber was interrupted by a horrible vision of an unknown evil: she saw the sky dominated by smoke, the soil scorched, and blood flowing through the streets. She sensed this darkness beginning to gather in the north, in an ancient forest she knew very little of.

The revelation she'd witnessed did not sit well with the temple's High Priest, who gave Sheedra an ultimatum she could not give in to: forget her visions and dreams, or leave the Temple of Vandria. Naturally, as she'd always done, Sheedra allowed her goddess' will to prevail. She left the city of Elianora that very day in search of the origins of the evil she was shown. It didn't take her long to discover Jon Rawlins and his expedition into the Silverpine Forest.
