Omara

Introduction
Omara was a courtesan of little renown until becoming the recent lover of Maelys Sandrake, rider of Sunburst. The two are frequently spotted together.

Appearance
The result of a pleasure house of Lys, Omara was once fair. Now, however, golden brown eyes are marked by deep purple bags underneath, and they watch silently from underneath a mess of platinum hair.

History
Omara's childhood was, unfortunately, not unusual for those Lysene born in the lower rungs of society: sold into indentured servitude at the age of seven, Omara has spent nearly her entire life in a whore house. As a child, she changed sheets and helped in the kitchen but, as she came of age, was put to work as another ware for sale, available by the hour for the right amount of coin.

Her career as a courtesan was uneventful, but it was what Omara did in her free time that eventually caught the eye of others: with meager savings and a coinpurse pilfered from an oblivious customer, Omara began to invest in local ventures. From purchasing the local clam girl's stock for a cut of the profits to eventually investing in spice to be bought cheap in Lys and sold for a hefty profit in the Arbor and Sunspear, Omara's wealth slowly grew far beyond what a woman of her station was expected to have. In 428 A.C., she purchased her own contract, thus freeing herself from the servitude she had been bound by since childhood.

In 434 A.C., Omara met Maelys Sandrake, dragon rider in service of Tyrosh, during his visit to Lys. The two quickly grew infatuated with one another, and soon Omara set for Tyrosh on the back of Sunburst, leaving all she had built in Lys behind. The rest are just rumors: a minor noble found murdered in his bed, a ship burned in harbor in the dead of night, whispers of the Weeping Lady herself having taken mortal form to dole out judgement by loud drunks with a tendency to exaggerate for the sake of entertainment.
