Pest

Portrait
Description
Name:   Pest

This woman is likely in her mid 30's.   She's 5' 6" tall with a wiry build, sometimes can be mistaken for a man..  Not very attractive by most standards, and doesn't care to try to be.  Her clothes seem poor and often dirty, though a close inspection can tell they were carefully constructed to appear that way.  Her mousey brown hair is ragedly cut, often with ash or some grey powder to assure there is no shine.

She seems to be a loner, seems uncomfortable in social situations.   A careful observer notes she's very aware of her suroundings, keeps her back sheltered and always makes sure she has multiple routs of egress.  That observer may also be aware of how quietly she moves.

Back story:    TBD

Once  a street urchin, the 8 year old Pest did anything she could to care for and feed her baby brother.  Stealing from merchants, food vendors and any of their customers, she was just one of the hoards of starving kids in the slums of Waterdeep.  Those urchins were whipped or worse when caught, kicked and beaten when seen, sworn at when the kicks and switches missed.  Vermin, Trash and Pest were some of the "better" names they were called.  

It had been three years since their mother had died.  Three years without being caught and with only minor bruises is rare for a street urchin.  Her 4 year old baby brother was sick and getting worse.   She needed medicine, and that required gold.  That meant getting close enough to cut purses.   Needless to say, she was caught.  While the mark didn't notice her, a man did, who happened to be a captain of the personal guard of one of the Merchant Lords.  Instead of cutting off her hand, he offered "the boy" a job in the barracks, to clean and pick up after the soldiers.  Pest was used to pretending to be a boy, and at first thought this would be a wonderful opportunity to steal from the rich soldiers, but being reasonably treated, steady food and coin convinced Pest to stay.  Pest worked, watched and listened.  The soldiers seems to like to call their "boy" Pest, at first because they thought "he" was, but later because it was funny to them.   They got used to finding their gear cleaned, beds made, chamber pots emptied.  They didn't suspect Pest was a girl for the next 3 years.   It was the Captain who realized.  He had started training Pest after finding her practicing things the men had been doing in the yard.  Her balance was exceptional, but her center of balance was too low for a male... once he suspected, it was easy to confirm.  He decided to keep her secret from the men, and moved her duties to the stables.  

As her training advanced, it was clear to him Pest was best utilized as a scout and spy.  He moved her to a new teacher, where her secrets could be kept and her special attributes could be utilized..

That was many, many years ago.  Pest was trained to be an exceptional spy, scout and aquisition agent.  When need required, she became a cortisean, a begger, a warrior and a merchant.  At first, it was all to feed and take care of her little brother.   Then as years past, it was the thrill of the challenge.
