Drada'Dalharil of House Arabani in Celedriel, Yasra graduated Arach-Tinilith second in her class--better than anyone expected of the city's sixteenth house.

Her life was unremarkable for a drowess's, filled with plots and schemes to gain power in the Church and the House alike until Lolth's silence descended. It was centuries since the War of the Spider Queen had torn apart the Vault and the Goddess's devotees had almost been annihilated by Kiaransalee's followers. No one expected it to happen again.

Cities falling to the combined might of Vhaeraun's followers and the undead armies of the White Banshee lead by Nyvaela Baenndar, she and her younger sister, Haelryne, decided survival was the better part of valor and fled the Vault with a party of other priestesses and warriors from their house. Wandering lost in the tunnels for some time, they happened upon a tomb deep under the ground.

Unfortunately, recent excavation by the miners of Delver's Dale had unearthed the other inhabitant of this crypt and broken the old seal. An ancient evil fell upon them, slaughtering the drow. Yasra was the sole survivor, waiting in a side chamber for the inevitable moment when the rot harbringer would return for her. It was there she met Silonus, almost shooting him in the process.

The paladin and his friends--those that didn't betray them--killed the creature, then followed her out of the place through Under Dark tunnels. Yasra has found her path considerably different than what it began as since that chance meeting, dragging her companions into a war that by rights shouldn't have involved them.

Since that whole debacle, Yasra has returned to her restored house. The priestess has changed a great deal since her time on the surface, having essentially made her own way for a decade. Her distaste for other races has been replaced by an appreciation for them and a willingness to deal on their level, making her an asset during the blood war with House Aleval.

Yasra enjoys the relatively free reign she has been given by the Matron, and is usually content at present to avoid her family as much as is possible, passing along reports to her mother when it suits her. She takes every diplomatic mission her mother gives her, reveling in any opportunity to return to the outside world. She does make the occasional trip to the surface still.
