Cultural and Background Information:
Jocasta was born into a tiefling community known as the Emberborn, who settled in the volcanic region of Mount Embergoth. The Emberborn tieflings have deep red skin and fiery orange eyes, reflecting their close connection to the element of fire.
Jocasta's mother, a powerful sorceress, was banished from the community due to her rebellious nature and disregard for the strict traditions and rules of the Emberborn. Jocasta grew up learning magic from her mother, but she always felt more comfortable with a sword in her hand than casting spells.
As a tiefling living in a predominantly human world, Jocasta faced discrimination and prejudice. The constant rejection and distrust from others forged a strong and determined personality within her. She became independent and self-reliant, preferring the solitude of the wilderness to the judgmental gaze of society.
Driven by a strong sense of justice, Jocasta became a rogue for hire, using her skills as a skilled swordsman to protect those who couldn't protect themselves. She roams the lands, taking on missions that align with her own principles and values, always striving to prove that tieflings are not defined by their appearances but by their actions.
