Aurum: Biography / Back Story
Aurum the Gypsy was raised as a traveler. Her caravan stopped in many places, though tended to camp for the winters when icy roads grew too perilous to travel, and would move on when the local bandit population grew too rowdy. As time went on, families would leave the caravan to settle down somewhere they liked — and Aurum’s family did that around the time she turned 18. Her family and one other decided to settle down, marrying many of their sons and daughters away to good, well-to-do families.
Aurum felt the need to keep traveling, however, and so left her family and continued along the path her Caravan followed, an enormous circle. The circuit last takes two years, and this is currently her third cycle alone — tasting all of the alcohol, getting herself into every bit of trouble, and reading as many fortunes and palms as she possibly can. She tried to dance for money, but found her lack of grace left much to be desired, and settled instead on fortune-telling to feed herself.
