Known History
nadia has shared little of her life before joining the Company. Her complete player-submitted history remains in her restricted profile until she reveals it during play.
DM Thoughts
what does Nadia look for when she surveys a place before approaching it?
Personality and Manner
cautious and observant, and inclined to let actions speak. She inspected Corrow’s office before entering it; when Corrow asked what she would bring to the table, she answered with a flourish, a trick with her dagger, and let the action speak for itself. She arrived first at the trade yard and surveyed the grounds before approaching anyone, and at camp she inspected the wagon thoroughly herself rather than taking it on trust.

Journey So Far
Session 00: The First Road
in The First Road, Nadia inspected Corrow’s office before entering and, asked what she would bring to the table, answered with a trick of her dagger. The next morning she arrived first at the Corrow Trade Yard, surveyed the grounds, looked the wagon over, and then spoke with Corvex about the job. At the Stone Marker Campsite, right after the Company pitched camp, she inspected the wagon thoroughly and found it ordinary, carrying Elk’s mark, with nothing unusual beneath the driver’s bench. She lit the fire with Prestidigitation with a snap of her fingers and volunteered for the second watch.
Session 01: The Toll in the Mist
in The Toll in the Mist, Nadia investigated rustling grass and a low growl during her watch, bringing her into the opening of the wolf attack. She fought with bow and sword and struck a wolf as it rushed past her. After helping pitch tents in the drizzle, she entered the Shifting Forests with the Company and became separated in the mist. She later found Varynx and followed Corvex’s amplified voice to the Treetop Toll Outpost. Nadia narrowly avoided its rockfall trap, searched the structure, and found the Hidden Workshop Letter beneath a false plank before showing it to everyone.
Session 02: The Forest’s Judgment
in The Forest’s Judgment, Nadia revealed the leather-wrapped deck to Shallie and helped test it with the Enchanted Brazier. She fought the ash-born feline specters, carried the deck away to extinguish the brazier, and took both objects when the Company left. During the Red-Tusk attack, she hid throughout the forest and repeatedly fired from concealment. At the Forest Edge Campsite, she found the deck and brazier inert. She then used a recovered hammer to remove the black iron nail Shallie identified beneath the driver’s bench, exposing the wagon’s rotten cargo.
