Silence (Phandelver)

Silence is a character played by Antitonic for the Lost Mine Of Phandelver campaign.

Story
On his travels, master bard Masin Fell came across a wrecked caravan containing a single survivor: an infant tiefling he named Natfaris. Once she was of age, and started training under the older man in the ways of bardic magic and lore, she assumed a new name: "To Defeat The Silence Of Despair In The World With The Creation Of Joyous Cacophony", or simply Silence for short. Tired of being mocked, abused, and run out of town for her appearance and percieved slights against whatever town she was in, Silence's heart grew darker, held back only by Masin's encouragement and positivity. When the older man succumbed to age, Silence took a turn for the worst. No longer a cheerful soul, she grew to accept all the hateful accusations directed at her, and although she could verbally fight back, they still left their scars.

Part of a group employed by Gundren Rockseeker to travel to the town of Phandalin, Silence eventually took part in the rediscovery of the Lost Mine of Phandelver, a dwarven vault of sorts that boasted riches.
