``Alessa has always been a free spirit for as long as she could remember. She didn't grow up around parents, instead she grew up on a pirate's ship as a crew member working from ship to ship. Some were good seafaring people, others had less scruples. From her childhood until adult age, she learned many skills and a love for the sea, archeology, treasure hunting, digging underground caves and mountain climbing. But it was when she embarked for a city in the Phoenix Coalition that something triggered bad dreams, horrible nightmares that the worst monstrosity she'd ever seen was going to tear her limb from limb and utterly destroy her. The dragon in her dreams was violent, physically and verbally, demanding that she release the beast! These dreams seemed to get so horrid that eventually, she tried not to sleep and that worked against her as her constitution dissipated and left her weakened. When she had grown so weak a friend had to practically carry her home from the tavern she'd been drinking at, the dragon from her dreams escaped and Alessa turned into her worst nightmare!

She turned into a huge, ferocious golden dragon who had been imprisoned long ago within her infant body as a curse upon the draconic land of Gorandraga. Her line of dragon was considered royal in her land, all golden dragons were though there were many form of dragon who resided there. The evil mage dragon who had done this cast the curse upon all the citizens, which imprisoned them all to a human form much like a bubble that was very difficult to break. Then, the cursed dragons were scattered to the four corners of the universe never to be completely united ever again. Vell, the evil mage dragon did this because of a grudge against the dragon's royal line ; gods 'Thunder' and 'Lightning' who would not allow him to become a royal heir to the throne. Thunder and Lightning bore the heaviest burden of this curse becoming the embodiments of their names, losing their corporeal bodies and instead evidencing their presence through the sounds and sights of a storm. The Heir to the throne was a dragon named Dragonleia and she too was cursed with a human form and cast to the outer reaches of the universe. Dragonleia, was a direct relative of Alessa which would give her the royal draconic name 'Dragonalessa' while in her natural form. Alessa is one of the last known surviving Kindred of the Dragon Dawn, Gorandraga.

This knowledge was given to her after months of agonizing over her 'true form.' Dragonalessa hated Alessa and the feeling was mutual! It was an inner struggle just to wake up in the morning. Soon, she embarked on a journey at the beckoning of a most unusual storm that seemed to speak to her in an unknown language. She followed it up the peak of a high mountain on the outskirts of the Coalition and an orb of Light spoke to her as if into her very soul, revealing answers to questions she hadn't even thought to ask; her origins; her nature; and the reason for her love of treasure! After the encounter with the orb, Alessa began to tolerate the dragon a little more and she left the Phoenix Coalition to fly the high seas and learn more about who she truly is, and of course, find more treasure!``
