Feru din Narith was born Felisa din Narith, only daughter of a wealthy merchant and his pampered wife. From the start, Felina decided she absolutely did not want to live by anyone else's rules. She hated to be dressed up in frilly girl's clothes, and once she could move about on her own, took every opportunity she could get to make a mess - especially when it involved getting herself dirty. As she grew older, she started sneaking out to play with the neighborhood children, taking great joy in rough-housing with the boys and getting absolutely filthy in the process.

When she was sixteen, she had enough. She packed up her clothes and ran away with a few friends who were going off adventuring. One of these was a budding mage, a young girl who didn't quite have a handle on her magic yet. One night, as they stopped to camp, this had odd results. Felisa was joking around about how they'd all be better off if they had a dog to keep watch for them. Completely unintentionally, the would-be mage cast a spell on Felisa that turned her into a cat. The whole group had a minor panic attack, especially when the girl couldn't turn her back immediately.

It took two days and a lot of failed tries to get Felisa back to normal. Although "normal" was no longer what she had been before. Much to everyone's surprise, Felisa was indeed returned to human shape.. but she had a few.. extras. Namely, the addition of cat ears instead of human ears, and a fluffy tail, as well as a few personality traits that were definitely more feline than human. Oddly enough, Felisa welcomed these changes, claiming that she felt more like herself than she ever had before. With these changes, she decided that her name no longer fit, and proclaimed herself "Feru". The name stuck.

The group wandered, taking odd jobs here and there. After one particularly strange encounter involving a haywire sentient Dwarven forge, Feru found herself in possession of a very unique sword. The blade was very wide, and half as long as she was tall, with a long hilt that made up the difference, and then some. Truthfully, she could barely lift it, at first. But with some training from the sword's maker, she was finally able to wield it. Feru felt like she had finally found a piece of herself that had been missing.

Feru and her friends traveled together for a few more years, but eventually they ended up going their separate ways as their lives led each of them in different directions. Feru took to wandering, taking up the occasional mercenary job to keep herself fed, always searching for the next adventure - and the next fight. It was this that led her to the port city of Bayonne, in the nation of Gauldin, where she met the Gnomish engineer, Tinker Fizzbit. The two hit it off, and agreed to start a mercenary company together.

With a headquarters purchased and two new members already joined, Feru took a random job and set off to fulfill it. It was while on her way there, venturing through dark and creepy woods, that she and Syros stumbled across each other. Though the guy was uncertain (and adorably virginal), once Feru finished her job, she managed to coax him into bed with her. What was meant to be a single night somehow turned into Feru's first attempt at a relationship, and although she has no idea what she's doing, she enjoys his company. ..And the sex is great, which is a huge bonus. ..The cuddles are also nice. Maybe.
