Sasha Lightfoot

Sasha Lightfoot (formerly Baron-Cohen) is a young cleric without a home. She is eternally at odds with the environment around her, and tries to ease this awkwardness by continuous low-grade drunkenness.

Character Background
Sasha was born as an only child to a noble Chelaxian family in Korvosa. She was slated to live out her baroness days by marrying a rich, small-town tycoon who would join her to take over the family business. But she hated him.And it wasn't enough to simply reject the man either -- she wanted to reject the whole family. The Baron-Cohen business relied on slavery and exploitation of the poor in order to fund their lavish lifestyle. After several spirited arguments with her father, she realized that neither the family nor the townspeople they exploited were ready for any type of change. So at 18, she ran away from home and from this responsibility by disguising herself in a group of nomadic Varisians. She adopted a new last name to conceal her relation to the notoriously disliked Baron-Cohen family, and became Sasha Lightfoot.

In the course of her travels, Sasha spent much time meeting the local townsfolk at local bars. In one of the larger cities in Varisia, she met a cleric of Cayden Cailean after being challenged to a drinking contest. (She lost.) Intrigued by her new friend, she followed him to a local church gathering, where she felt quite at home with the other clerics and worshippers. She soon decided to break off from her nomadic friends to study the mythology and the practice of Cayden, who appealed both to her sense of adventure and her sense of right and wrong. At the church, she both honed her ability to brew ale and to heal others.

She then decided to travel to spread the word of Cayden Cailean by example.
