Ma’ahni Distant Rain

Ma’ahni Distant Rain is a tabaxi who is a rogue thief working with The Shield. Ma’ahni lived in the streets of your average tabaxi city as an orphan. She had never met her parents, and didn’t know anything about them. She didn’t know if they had died, lost her, or didn’t want her, she knew nothing of her family. She tried her best to get work around the city but couldn’t ever make much money. She watched these people around her, who had steady jobs, and could make a lot of money, but only ever made enough to get food and afford a home and family. She didn’t understand the tabaxi lifestyle of “wanting as little money as possible,” and “living life for the knowledge and stories collected.”

Sick of being poor and hungry, Ma’ahni decided that she might have better luck in the human cities, and so, she traveled to one when she was 13 years old. The long roads took her to the city of Baldur’s Gate where she looked for a job to care for herself. The humans in the city were much different than the tabaxi in her city. They seemed to be driven by money, and she felt like she fit in just fine. On her first night in the city, she saw a butcher’s shop with a beautiful slab of meat just sitting on the counter. With no money and no chance of getting it, she stole it, and began a life of theft and robbery. She had discovered that the easiest way to get money was to steal items, and sell them.

She eventually joined a thieves guild, where she got payed even more for stealing items. At one point, she went to loot bodies at the site of a war where she was confronted by Myrf Kyl. They stuck together and she introduced Myrf to her thieves guild. They eventually joined The Shield and have been working there together ever since.
