unlike most of her kind, roweyna wasn't freed from a stasis crystal within the forbidden reach. instead, she was found by adventurers exploring aberrus, trapped within one of the laboratory's many containment units. the only identifying information present was the label "experiment #479" and she chose the name roweyna shortly after being freed. she can often be found deep within neltharion's abandoned laboratory, searching for answers as to why she was created.
roweyna chooses creation over destruction, repairing instead of unmaking. a spark of curiosity that flickers to life after a chance meeting with an engineer in valdrakken quickly becomes a full-fledged obsession. instead of abandoning her gifts, she chooses to shift how she uses and focuses the devastatingly dangerous magic she wields. she is fascinated by mortal ingenuity, enthusiastic about inventions and mechanisms, and is eager to unravel the mysteries of the titans. she's still learning, but she's quickly mastering the art of combining magic with machinery.
there is a wide, wild, wondrous world outside of the halls of aberrus and the lofty caverns of zaralek, and she is insatiably eager to see it. there are new mysteries to unravel, intriguing blueprints to learn, beautiful sights to see, and people to meet, and she is often far from her home in loamm, learning and exploring.
bixxa has built strong relationships with both the blackwater raiders and cartel xy. morally flexible, highly skilled, and an adventurous risktaker, she's an excellent fit for organizations participating in illegal or slightly unsavory activities.
the glint of gold beneath sand, a locked chest in abandoned ruins, rare and exotic goods tucked away in highly protected vaults... if it's off-limits, it's highly appealing to both bixxa and her employers. typically, she "liberates" items form their rightful owners the old-fashioned way, but an accident with a shadow cursed relic left her with an incredibly flexible relationship with reality. although springing a difficult lock or solving a challenging puzzle to access goods is always satisfying, phase diving has opened doors that weren't even in the realm of possibility before.
one would think that a prolific thief with well-paying connections would be living in a beachside estate of their own instead of with their mother, but that's not the case for bixxa - she is notoriously, frustratingly, baffling bad with her coin. as soon as her coin purse is full, she's spending it on fancy cocktails, lending it to friends, gambling at the gallagio, buying gifts, purchasing treasure maps of questionable origin, or paying for information.
born with a silver spoon in her mouth to loving parents that didn't seem to know the word "no", bethani had a life of leisure and luxury awaiting her. needless to say, her parents were floored when she they were chose to pursue a life in academia instead of cushy comfort. from a young age, bethani showed an unexpected, unwavering, passionate interest in history, languages, and archaeology. despite their initial shock and confusion, they are unwaveringly supportive and and have funded her endeavors and paid her rent. with her faithful imp, assistant professor geltip, at her side, she's ready to unravel the mysteries and rediscover the forgotten histories of azeroth.
bethani is a warlock, but not because of great aspirations of power or an insatiable interest in the demonic. after one of her earliest excavations had a major oopsie that resulted in an inner chamber collapsing, she found herself trapped and cut off from the rest of her fellow archaeologists. after days alone, begging with every entity she could think of for help, her desperate pleas were finally answered - not by the light, but by a demonic inquisitor who saw great potential and use for her. in exchange for her survival and the power to continue her work, she agreed to serve as his agent on azeroth, bringing him useful and intriguing information and relics. she's held up her end of the bargain, but what he gets most of the time is silvermoon's latest hot gossip.
she might spend most of her time in dusty ruins, elbow deep in ancient sites, but bethani is still a hedonistic diva used to a high standard of living. she's never without fully furnished accommodations, an overstuffed wardrobe bursting with clothes, a glass of wine at hand, and all of her favorite creature comforts. she is always ready to party and is constantly looking for a cause to celebrate - not just for herself, but for others, too.
it wasn't heroism or bravery that led korvess to the steps of the black temple, but a burning bitterness and an overwhelming desire to die. failure to become a farstrider, failure to meet the lofty expectations of her family, and a failure to amount to much of anything besides a listless mercenary all added fuel to the emotional fire. the way she saw it, she would either succeed and obtain the kind of power that would make her respected and useful, or she would die and the world would be rid of her presence. she devoured the heart of an aranasi demon and much to her surprise, not only did she survive the ritual, but she found kinship, understanding, and even love amongst her fellow illidari.
while the defeat of the burning legion left many illdari in shambles, bereft of purpose and direction, korvess was already used to uncertainty and following the shift of the winds. she continues to hunt down the demons that have been stranded on azeroth, as well as offering her services as a guard and bounty hunter to those looking for help.
like many of her fellow illidari, korvess is always on the hunt for new methods to master and different ways to help protect azeroth. however, she's not entirely sold on embracing the void, so when magister astalor bloodsworn approaches her with the opportunity to harness a new kind of power, she's all in. her skill in tracking down prey that doesn't always wish to be found, as well as experience with dangerous magic, makes her ideal for learning how to utilize anguish.
