History: She was born blind and as such lacked many opportunities for work. When she was little, her rather wealthy family often ventured across the desert to a summer home near a old dungeon.

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. Lerissa took refuge in the old dungeon and found the beat up longbow and armor she uses now. She remains aloof and afraid to be herself due to all the ideals others have placed upon her.
