History: She was raised in a desert tribe. When she was little, her rather wealthy family often ventured across the desert to a summer home near a large cave.

Her family spent the next few days looking for her, and could only assume she was dead when it came time to leave. The family never returned to the desert due to the painful memories there. Shautha took refuge in the large cave and found the beat up quarterstaff and armor she uses now. Days after completing her studies, news broke out that her hometown was attacked by dire rats.
