Ray is a sellsword who had last been contracted to Comyr.  She had been with her company for 2 years, training hard and has lived through several campains.  
As her company was advancing on a new enemy, disaster struck.  Some kind of spell, possibly wild magic, wiped out her company with huge explosion...

She should have been killed.

But she woke up near Durakiss, badly hurt, with a concussion and partial memory loss.  Like how did she arrive here and where is here?

Her training took over.  Find shelter, water and food.  Heal.  Find supplies, a weapon, armor.  Regain strength.  
Those critical tasks done, now to explore these Islands, find work and survive.
