This is the origin of an original character in the Dungeons & Dragons setting. The character of Cutthroat is a tiefling and transgender woman belonging to the Bard College of Swords. Her magical bardic abilities derive from the mesmerizing performances of her blade. Sword swallowing, knife-juggling, and fencing are her specialty. Cutthroat’s body is a tapestry of markings and scars each telling a different story. She bears golden arcane tattoos on her arms from a failed career in wizardry. The right socket of her eye sits empty from an ill-fated bargain with a devil. In a moment of absolute despair, a knife slashed across her throat leaving both her neck and voice permanently scarred. Cutthroat is a bold character who wears the scars of her past boldly and with a devilish smile.
