#courri

The long version is that Courri was born into a militant cult which worshiped the god of justice, Tyr. The cult believed that it was their job to do the ‘dirty work’ for Tyr and be a fist of justice on the world. Her parents were devout heretics in the cult so, when Courri had a vision from Tyr when she was 15 where he called her to become his paladin, she was sent to a nearby knights order to train. As one of the first members of the cult to be called by Tyr himself to service, she was regarded as the Chosen One and was expected by many in the cult to become the Prophet General  who would lead them to war and exact justice on the world in a great purge of sorts once she returned. 

Unfortunately for them, Courri wasn’t really feeling it. She eventually snuck out of the temple where she had been training and spent a good period of time trying to get as far away as possible before breaking into an old hovel in the forest that she stumbled upon, believing it to be abandoned. The old druid woman who the hovel belonged to beat Courri over the head for breaking into her home, but eventually agreed to take the young girl in and train her in exchange for company and doing a lot of the more labor intensive work around to hovel that the old druid woman could no longer to as easily due to her age.
