Balia Argith

Balia Argith was a member of The Left Hand until she fled after being disfigured and. Since then she's been a researcher in Acerbus looking for clues about Dunamancy. And she has found some.

Personality
She is a cruel and spiteful woman who has a sentence for holding onto grudges. But she is very good at what she does and rarely gets sidetracked. She also is very driven to learn, she wants to understand the world around her to the best of her ability.

Under that all is a woman scared and desprate to be accpeted by her home and not be casted out for her minor flaws or accidents. She thinks they are the only people who've ever cared about her.

History
She was chosen to join The Left due to her withdrawn nature and tendency to seek out knowladge.

She along with two of her fellow magic users, Tarin and Vierra. Formed a small group, they were both doing their jobs along with studying magic. They had a series of failures into trying to understand a long rumored form of magic. Dunamancy. The first major incident was that while trying to manipulate gravitational pull Balia got a part of herself sucked in. She was disfigured. The higher ups declared her a failure and wanted to make an example of what a failure to produce results looked like. She fled to Acerbus before she could be exociuted.

After that she pursued her study of Dunamancy with a feverish vigor. It was the only worth she had, the only way she would ever be allowed home. She uncovered an impressive amount but still felt as if it would not be enough.

So when offered the chance to help spark a war that would bring the serects of Dunamancy to light she said yes and took part in The Scarred Massacure. She personally killed Arathorn Beowulf.
