Character: Surafal the Fair, Dark Elf Trader (secretly the legendary assassin known only as “Disappearance”)
Surafal is a dark elf woman shrouded in mystery. As one of the few dark elves of Naam who dare leave the safety of the Sunken World, she changes faces and travels far and wide, including into the dangerous Overworld, to further her plans.
Surafal’s elder sister, High Priestess Millicentyss, initially tried to set her on the path to become an agent of the Diaphanous Web, a secret society in service of the benevolent deity known as the Old Spider. But Surafal wanted more. Unbeknownst to her sister, Surafal slowly seduced a master assassin held captive by the high priestesses, and one day she broke him free. She traveled with him for decades, learning the secrets of a master assassin, and eventually surpassing him in skill. Unbeknownst even to her sister, she had become the Disappearance, a legendary assassin that removed all traces of her victims, making it seem as if they had just disappeared, by throwing them into a cursed bag that devoured everything.
Surafal thought she had it all until she crossed paths with Elyoris, a mysterious figure who seemed to be pulling unseen strings that extended across both the Sunken World and the Overworld. Surafal suspected that Elyoris might be the legendary Mister Shadowmore, the phantom behind many of the most intricate plots and political machinations, far beyond what a mere assassin could do.
Elyoris, the man that could be Mister Shadowmore took a keen interest in Surafal and sought to find out if she is the legendary assassin Disappearance. At the same time, Surafal approached Elyoris with her own plans to uncover the true identity of Mister Shadowmore. This mutual plotting spiraled into a whirlwind romance between two masters of deception that continues to the day.
Surafal is one of my own characters in the Theomachy setting. She is an epic-level assassin with strong political ties and a dark agenda against those who worship the warring gods of Naam. Here, she’s holding a Mind Quickening Orb she obtained for her sister to give as a gift to a potential ally. The Mind Quickening Orb is one of many items I’ve made!
About the Theomachy setting:
In Theomachy, vengeful gods fight each other for ultimate control of the universe, while the mortals of Naam struggle for power on a dying world. Divine magic is a force without expressed will that the warring gods hoard and wield against each other, threatening to undo the entire world. Clerics and paladins are either devout followers of the warring gods or theomachists who fight against the gods, liberating divine magic and using it against them.
