History: Born to a pair of adventurers, Mijira grew up listening to her mother's many stories. She always admired martial-users and wanted to develop the talent, but never had the affinity for it. During her travels, Mijira and her party rested in a cavern that was (unknown to them) infused with powerful dark magic. Upon awakening, Mijira discovered the rest of her party dead, transformed into horrible, mindless undead versions of their former selves. Mijira fled the cavern, stopping for breath at a small pool, and only then realizing her own horrible transformation.
