Shayla is originally from Phi Island, in the Eastern Territory in the city of Centria. Shayla is from a very religious family who felt gifts such as psionics and magic were gifts from the devil. When her powers emerged, they cast her out when she was 19 years old.

After leaving home at such a young age, Shayla did only what any 19 year old would do…travel the world. No sooner did her journey start when it almost came to an end. Upon reaching the island of Lopan (brother island to Phi) she realized she could use more than the 12 gold pieces she left home with and perhaps help on realizing her powers. As any late teenager might do with new unexplained powers in a desperate time, Shayla began to think of it as a blessing and used a thought to dissuade a gentleman of his "heavy purse". It is not something she was proud of, but it helped her to survive. She did not often do these "tricks", and one day a lesson was taught to her the hard way.

While she was having a meal "on the house" in a tavern of low standards, Shayla was harassed by a few lewd men. It got so bad that her blood began to boil with hate for these men. She did not know it, but the alcohol in their mugs began to boil as well! As one of the men grabbed her forcibly for a kiss, their mugs shattered with hot ale erupting into their faces. Shayla swung a punch for her captor, and before she could blink he lay dead on the wooden floor, a wound gaping from his collar. Shayla looked towards her hand to see a thin, rapier-like sword glowing in her hand. Before she can even think, she runs out of the establishment, and is caught by the city guards, and is thrown into prison for murder and theft. She is unable to pay the fine and must face severe punishment.

It is around this time that an elderly elf named Deamaruks (d•am•r•ucks) has wandered into Shayla's life. The elf was in need of a helping hand at his home and often buys young, down on their luck, individuals from the prisons. A profile is needed of course; he cannot just hire any miscreant off the street. Shayla feels safe with him, as he treats her as a daughter. Most of her daily activities contained within the kitchen area and some dusting around the large house. It was here that Shayla learned control over her powers; it was Deamaruks who trained her on the fine-tuning of what he called mind magic’s or psionics.

Eventually she had control of her powers. Shayla learned when to, and when not to, use them. And in what discretion she must make her abilities known. "There are some of those out there that would like to see this 'art' and all of its practitioners dead my dear. We must hide what we have for the better." Deamaruks would say, telling her of the peril of life.

After spending over a year in Lopan's capital city, Shayla thought it would be best to go on her way, now that she has the money to do so (a gift from the old elf) and control over her abilities. As often as these things start there are a few bumpy paths, misguided directions, and unwelcome trouble.

She first boards a ship that takes her to Watercreast, a medium sized village on the western shores of the Eastern Territories. With the mountains to the north, and the sea to the west, Shayla has only east or south to go. Being just over 20 years old she sets out into the wilderness for the first time. Alone in an unknown city has its upsides, but not in the wilderness. Shayla forgets to ration her food, the directions she received were miserable, and there is no comfort as she walks alone.

There is a period in which she begins to grow accustomed to this life. Using her powers freely to find water and survive with little food until one fateful night. As she camps out, a noise is heard then seen. A large humanoid creature standing 7 1/2 feet tall with huge, hairy, muscular tan skin. Its dark brown shabby hair covers its eyes, until its hand moves the hair out of its face. Its dark eyes squint towards Shayla, as a grin reveals its canine teeth. An ogre Shayla thinks to herself. Knowing their history and their troubled ways, the human female prepares for a fight, and a fight she gets. Her psionic powers never even came into play as the club the creature was wielding smashed into her skull. It’s all over Shayla thought as her eyes closed for the last time (at least she thought so). Being left for dead, this caused her to hate and fear their kind; ogres.

Voices are heard at a distance then closer. Humans, her kind. As she opens her light gray eyes, Shayla sees she is no longer lying on the ground but in a wooden wagon. A traveling caravan has found her and saved her from being food of the forest. The caravan informs her that they are on the way to Aidrianna and she is welcome to travel for the time being. After a few days, Shayla is feeling better and gets to know her saviors well.

Shayla is fiercely private as she has faced persecution when it comes to her powers as people tend to react to them with fear and anger, attacking her. When she passes through a town or meets new people, she usually tries to pass herself off as a normal traveller out to see the world, masking her psionic powers.

Shayla has long blond hair and light grey eyes, which darken to the colour of storm clouds when she’s upset. She usually wraps herself up in her cloak in an attempt to conceal her figure. She has a walking stick that she always keeps handy, either to help her across difficult terrain or to thump the skull of someone bothering her.
