Hespero the Harmonious

Nuri is a half-elf adventurer and cleric serving the outlander deity Heironeous.. Hailing originally from the City of Greyhawk on Oerth, Nuri was abandoned by her parents as a child and forced to work at seedy tavern as a dancer before she was taken in by a priest of Heironeous and instructed in the church's religion. Her proclivity for raining righteous wrath down upon transgressing men motivated the church to put her on the road adventuring with the paladin Dungannon Jeratte. In their adventuring career, Dungannon eventually fell from grace in his quest for vengeance against a fiend summoner that brought about the maiming and retirement of his former lover Leah. His transformation into a bitter, guilt-consumed person is a fact that has left Nuri truly saddened.

At some point, Hespero and his fellow adventurers entered the Demiplane of Dread, eventually coming to Villebois in Dementlieu. Mayor Charles de Tantoine may have tried to pin the blame on them for the murders he committed as a lycanthrope.

Relationships

Along with Nuri and Durgannon Jerrak, Hespero has remained at the heart of their adventuring party. Hespero believes his role in the group is to provide levity and cheer to complement the more serious Nuri and Durgannon, though Durgannon's descent into depression complicates this. Hespero has long since given up on entertaining the dour dwarf Draloef Stonegrinder, though the dwarf's epic deeds have provided Hespero with fodder for numerous poems and songs including the ever popular Ballad of the Sweaty Yeti. .

After Durgannon received Leah's help for liberation from her oppressive husband, Nuri has supported Leah's rescue as a chance for Durgannon's redemption..
