Background: Ty was born and raised in Lion's Arch by her parents. If either of them were part of any warbands or legions during their lives they never told her about it. She grew up with a variety of other races, and her parents frequently took her to visit other areas around Tyria, as well as taking her out on the ships from time to time. During one trip when she was about 13 years old, she was with her parents camping after travelling into Ascalon on the way to visit Butcher's Block, so that she could see Meatoberfest for the first time. A group of separatists attacked their camp and her parents had her go back into a nearby cave to hide, despite her wanting to stand by them to fight. They both fought hard and managed to conceal her retreat, but lost their lives to the larger group. As she finally heard it get quiet again in the dawn, Ty went out to find her parents' bodies. She was devestated, but used some of the magic they had taught her to help her get them back to Lion's Arch with her to bury near their home.
She was devestated and lost, unsure what to do. Unfortunately for her, she was noticed by a human Mattean, who trafficked in prostitutes in the less regulated areas. He approached her, playing on her confusion and pushed her into believing she had nothing, that her home and everything was lost with her parents. He dragged her into his employ, where she was offered up as a sex worker to anyone willing to pay the fee. Mattean often bragged about owning a charr to others, including one of his buddies and fellow trafficker, Raoulis. The other girls, of various races, were friendly though, giving Ty some emotional support as she worked through her losses, as well as helping to make sure she had proper preventatives, giving her tips on staying clean, conditioning her fur to be soft, styling her hair, painting her claws, and so on.
She was there for nearly two years, before she decided she had enough of being treated like property. Mattean kept pushing for more, being verbally and emotionally, and occasionally phsyically abusive, andn she finally stood up and told him she was leaving. He laughed at her and then tried to prevent her from doing so, and in the conflict she was forced to kill him to win her freedom. Her freedom came at a price though, as the Lionguard showed up with reports of the struggle. They were sympathetic to her and what had happened, but laws needing to be enforced, she still was jailed. Since she was a charr, the arena offered her the opportunity to fight there to pay off her billet, and she accepted. It was there she received training from some of the other fighters to add to much of what her parents had taught her, as well as learning from some of the others that she could check for an inheritence, something her parents may have left for her.
Since her billet was high due to the charge of murder (even in self defense) she was part of the arena for over a year. By the time she was about 16 and a half she finally had paid off her debt and was free to leave, and following the advice given sought the authorities and found her parents had not only left money put aside for her, but had owned their home and had left it to her name. She was able to move back home, though after a few years of being uninhabitted it of course needed to be cleaned. She spent the next year and a half doing odd jobs, and travelling a bit here and there as she learned that she was skilled at locating lost bodies, especially with the help of a shade that she started keeping around almost as a pet and companion even when not working.
When she was 18 years old Lion's Arch was attacked, and she managed to grab some others around her as they fled the city, thankfully avoiding permanant effects from the miasma. Once the battle was over she returned with others to the ruins of the city. Though there was damage to her home and the homes of her neighbors they had escaped destruction and they worked together to repair them. Moreso though she found herself swamped with work, as many people came to search for loved ones, friends, business associates and others who were lost in the battle, and she and her shade began to see very regular work in recovering bodies for clients seeking people who died in the city.
She met Helmut some time after this, and after some time they grew closer, first living together and then forming a bond with each other.
Current Activities: Working with clients in and around Lion's Arch or connecting cities, spending time with Helmut and her friends.
