Laila

A woman of the Veilwood kept in the pitch-black far cell of The Urina's jail —
the Rat King says she "makes a fine prize for the others to fight for" and has her
re-kidnapped whenever she gets out. Even behind bars she radiates a being-watched dread
(the party dubbed her "the night demon"); she extinguishes lights with a glance. Wants
only to return home to the Veilwood. (Name heard once — spelling unconfirmed; see
Canon Questions.)

Session 4

• Released by accident when Goopo Jr. kicked the wrong lever during the
  Handsome Jane rescue.
• Spared the unconscious jailer (whom Kain offered as a sacrifice); gave a
  respectful nod only to Fenric and greeted him in a Vale-ish slang of Orathos —
  woods-folk recognizing each other.
• Doused the kitchen-hall lights on her way out and announced she'll sneak aboard
  the party's boat to Orathos tomorrow night.

Session 6

• She made it aboard. Thalia found her hiding in the lower deck's dark corner
  of The Expedition Ship, shielded by the Ultra Virgin and the Potato Man as
  human deterrents — grey skin matted with camouflage makeup, pinkish eyes. The first
  person she'd spoken to in weeks.
• Her curse revealed: spectral ghost assassins hunt her daily (masked, hooded,
  twin daggers — one burst through the hull when she lit a candle). Killing them only
  buys a day, so she hides. She is a master of stealth — her whispered coaching made
  Thalia effectively invisible.
• Her plan: kill the man on the island who did this to her — probably in the
  Veilwood ("fucked-up science in the backwoods energy"). "If it doesn't [stop],
  I think I'm gonna kill myself." Thalia volunteered the party's help.
• Keen on testing Lash's Silvered Short Sword on one of the dark
  elf's caged sea-spirits; introduced herself with a lifetime-practiced handshake.

Session 7

• Still aboard, now with allies: found again near the coffins — invisible, "like a
  glass pane," giving the party a friendly wave — teamed up with a trio of three-headed
  armored skeletons ("the lord, lady and liege of Boneyville") bound for Orathos.
• Reaffirmed her plan to Silithane and the others: dock, wait for night, travel
  under cover of darkness and subterranean caves to the Veilwood border, and hunt the
  man who cursed her — "I intend to break their concentration on such a curse
  permanently." When pressed on who cursed her: "a long story that I do not share."
• The silver test vindicated her hope: the party confirmed (on a caged ghost) that a
  silvered weapon kills the spectral assassins. She also wants a 10-foot anti-sun
  "bubble" trinket she once couldn't afford ("I should have just killed him"); Orathos's
  wartime trade may carry one.
