[ACCEPTED] Resta Vivagrad | Human | Paladin(Sacred Shield)

Resta Vivagrad is one of the first paladins in the reawakened religion of Tygraphar. A native of Lin Rah, she grew up with fear of the orcs. While she never found outright contempt for them in her heart, her sister, Marcia, a respected paladin of Sarenrae, was seemingly murdered by an orc. Tensions flared for a while, but eventually both sides realized that Marcia wouldn’t have wanted war. With time, she moved to the Imperial Realm, deciding to undergo training to become a paladin of Iomedae, so if the need ever arose to go to war with Tog Nar, they’d have another set of capable hands ready. However, the entire time, she couldn’t shake the feeling of emptiness that the training for war filled her with. Eventually, the feelings, along with her own inability to justify the extreme measures that they prepared for, left her to leave the church in a personal crisis of faith. It was then that Tygraphar spoke to her through the spirit of her fallen sister. Marcia informed her of another way she could aid the struggle, by becoming a paladin of the Lashed One. This gave Resta the motivation to seek out old texts on the god. Initially horrified, she eventually came to respect the god for his change, and worked to become a paragon of Tygrapharian ideals.

Resta is not naïve enough to think that all evil can be stopped with words, but she is not letting that stop her from her quest to reinvigorate the old faith of Tygraphar and spread his message of redemption to the world.
