Adolescence
Polariss grew up in the shroud in isolation with her valiant warrior mother and serial killer father. Since the age of four, the moment she could pick up a weapon her father began to train her. At first, the lessons were rough but nothing that someone at her age couldn't handle. But over time, the older she got, the more skilled she became and the brutality of her training had gotten harder. Given that her father was the one putting her through trials, her mother would have to reel them both in often to keep them from killing one another. When she was fourteen Spring cycles, she had taken her first life and her father was filled with pride. And since then, she had officially become his prodige, learning the ins and out of the businesses he leads. Ariss didn't grow up around other Seekers and there were times where she wondered if her father hated them even when being one himself. Her mother never shared much about her lineage and so she had always assumed that she also left tribe life to seek out something different.
Adulthood
When entering her first Free Company, Ariss wasn't sure what to expect. Having been hidden from other children or only taken on business trips/missions with her father, interacting with others was a challenge. But it didn't take long for her to form friendships and even develop a crush. However, as time would go on things would take a turn. Leaderships fell apart, loved ones disappeared or died in battle. The emotional toll was something new to the Seeker, and so she wasn't sure how to handle it; in doing so, her hair grows long and sometimes she may not act like herself. All while this had gone on, her mother died in her childhood home, assassins that were forged from her fathers past had come looking for him and found her in his stead. The love of her fathers life had been ripped from him and Ariss was willing to do anything to avenge her mother... especially because she was pregnant.The Seeker traveled far and wide to take out those who had been involved with her mothers murder and she was successful in taking down each and every one. There were bumps along the way, being kidnapped and tortured by a lovers enemy stalled things for a while but when she fully recovered, her search would continue.
The Present
After three cycles of finding her mothers killers, the peace within her never found but vengeance taken-- her mother showed up on her doorstep one day while her father had come to visit. Standing there in awe, her father wasted reaching out to her, ready to pull her in for a warm embrace. But something stopped him, there was a small hand in hers, a child's; his child. Ariss stood there in pain and confusion at the sight before her.Ariss avoided the woman for some time before facing her and demanding an explanation. When she had explained her tale, while reasonable, Ariss still found it hard to forgive her. But upon learning where her mother had been, she learned about her lineage and so, she set out for Tural for a short while in search for her grandparents.The cycle of friendships beginning and ending has continued to plague her social circle though her business affairs with the criminal underground has flourished. But the Seeker can't help but wonder if she should set down her weapons for good and move to a place where she can start her own family.
