History: Orla hails from a village terrorized by dire rats. When she was little, her rather wealthy family often ventured across the forest to a summer home near a large cave. She would wander through that large cave and adventure through it for days. One day while adventuring a terrible storm took place and she was stranded inside. 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 forest due to the painful memories there. Orla took refuge in the large cave and found the beat up sai and armor she uses now. She now spends her time doing works of charity.
