Auje Huwe

Auje Huwe is a drow rogue from Velkyn D'Orbben. At one time she was set to become priestess of House Zauviir until her family was murdered by thugs from House Noquar. She was framed for the murder and was forced to exile herself to the surface where she's scraped up a living as a thief for a few years, seeking to expose the true killers and to stamp out House Noquar once and for all. She has a hard time working with others and is slow to trust others. She has a strong value for magic, though she treats it more as a tool than as an art.

"'Resilsh nielquosthos nilt resilsh.' (Help unasked for is never help.)""-A drow proverb"

Deep below the surface of Medeba rests the city of Velkyn D'Orbben, a place forever untouched by the sun where the drow prosper. We see a younger Auja dressed in clothes sewn from black webbing as she surveys the cityscape from the balcony of a high tower. She's looking down upon the others as the scurrying insects they are. Pitiful, she thinks to herself. Such creatures are unfit to call themselves drow nor are they worthy to be in the presence of Auja Huwe, qu'ellar of House Zauviir, for today was to be her Test of Mettle to The Spider Queen Lolth. Though many girls her age would be nervous about such an important task, Auja has nothing to fear. In her eyes, she's the strongest of her kind and a few spiders aren't going to stand in her way of ascending to the title of priestess.

She turns from the balcony and begins to descend the staircase when she hears a commotion up ahead. The sounds of blades clashing and blood spilling upon the floor while punctuated with death rattles and screams fill her ears. She then hears footsteps carelessly trudging up the steps. Blundering fools. She sneaks away into a corridor and draws her daggers quietly. Two white haired males in black armor pass up the steps. She turns around the corner and stabs them both in the jugular, their blood spraying upon the walls. She looks down upon their corpses when she notices they're wearing clasps with the House Noquar insignia on them. Their idiocy proved to be helpful after all. She slunk down the stairs stealthily only to find her sisters, her brother, and her mother all had their intestines splayed across the floor of the main hall. Auje doesn't shed a single tear or so much as scream. She walks over to her mother's corpse, kneels down, and picks up her rapier. She recalled she had named it Orbb Jess. Spider Fang. She sheaths it in the scabbard bearing the Zauviir insignia, stands back up, and calmly walks out of the place she once called home to kill every whelp that bore the insignia of Noquar who so much as shared the air she breathes. She will not rest until every last on of them has been crushed beneath her boots.
