Her partner is her best friend in the world. The two are very close despite being more or less each other's opposites. The war was a terrible time for her, and Farideh does not often speak of it. When she does, she does so with a strained expression and tears in her eyes.

History: She was raised in a island tribe. When she was little, her rather wealthy family often ventured across the island 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 island due to the painful memories there. Farideh took refuge in the large cave and found the beat up quarterstaff and armor she uses now. During her travels, Farideh and her party rested in a cavern that was (unknown to them) infused with powerful dark magic. Upon awakening, Farideh discovered the rest of her party dead, transformed into horrible, mindless undead versions of their former selves. Farideh fled the cavern, stopping for breath at a small pool, and only then realizing her own horrible transformation.
