Natalya Vancaskerkin
Natalya Vancaskerkin (pronounced nah-TALL-yah van-CASK-ker-kin)1 is the first-born, but disowned, daughter of Riddleport's infamous Saul Vancaskerkin. Her mother, Adreea Valitrosa, died while the new family tried to escape to Riddleport ahead of her Sczarni family. They did not approve of the marriage and wanted Natalya as payment.2
Feeling alienated from her father and second step-mother, Natalya turned to a Sczarni crime family that was a rival of her father's. Once discovered by her father, she was kicked out of the family manor, never to return.2
Heading to Magnimar, Natalya joined up with another Sczarni gang, the Tower Girls. Unhappy with not being in charge and the amount of money she was forced to contribute to the Sczarni, she approached Sheila Heidmarch of the Pathfinder Society about becoming an informant.2
Heidmarch lost contact with Natalya shortly after Natalya indicated she and the Sczarni had found an item that would be of use to the Society. Heidmarch has learned that the Sczarni are also searching for Natalya, so she suspects Natalya has fled with the item.3
Appearance
Natalya is a handsome woman with blue eyes and a swashbuckling style. Her long, naturally curly brown hair is thick and wild, kept out of her face with a red Varisian head scarf. In keeping with the Varisian style, she wears large gold hoops in her ears.2
Family
Damon Vancaskerkin is one of her two uncles. Verik and Orik Vancaskerkin are her younger half-brothers from her father.456
