When
asked about her past, Buranta squints at the sky, contemplating. After a
moment, she tells you she was born in the small country town of Corak, near
the famed city of Waterdeep to a young half-elven woman by the name of Karalla
Si'Esten, and a human man named Tarral. From a young age she had an aptitude
for thievery, and as much as her parents tried to instill in her a sense
of morality in relation to possessions, nothing seemed to work. She became
the subject of many an argument between her two parents, and eventually
Tarral disappeared under mysterious circumstances, much to the young Buranta's
despair.
As an adolescent, Buranta became more and more trying, argumentative and immoral
and eventually her mother Karalla threw her out onto the streets, depriving Buranta
of the last piece of family she had left. She was forced by starvation and need
into the Thieves Guild of Waterdeep, and found a profession which would eventually
become both her salvation and her downfall. An old human man, Rodan, taught her
the art of murder and assassination, and with her natural intelligence, charisma
and speed she quickly became proficient at assassination. She became moderately
rich thanks to her new profession within the space of a few well-paid murders
and several months, and bought a house in one of the wealthier districts of Waterdeep.
It was during one of these assassination attempts when one of her enemies finally
caught her, throwing her into his own dungeon before bringing her before the
judge. Though many of these accusations were obviously false, several proved
true and Buranta was taken into prison. She was held there for several years
before being transferred to Westgate. A year later, she was sold into slavery,
and bided her time among the slavers watching, waiting, and hoping for an opportunity.
That opportunity came, and it's name was <CHARNAME>.

While Buranta has no overt conflicts with NPCs (except one), she will not establish any particular friendships, either; she is a solitary woman, and after her confinement has become even less social. Her relationship with Althon is complex, and may end in her turning against him. Other than that, while she isn't the happiest daisy in the field she'll - get along with everyone else well enough.
