Velza Mirethread - Expert of Disguise
I don’t wear masks to lie, darling—I wear them to tell the truth more safely.
Name: Velza Mirethread
Race: Tiefling
Class/Role: Disguise Artist / Informant
Appearance: Velza’s natural form is striking: plum-colored skin, curling black horns, and pale, almost silvery eyes. But most rarely see that version of her. Whether wrapped in a merchant’s shawl, a street performer’s silks, or noble regalia, she carries herself with poise and precision. Her voice shifts with her persona—her smile too. Her real self is stored behind the counter of her shop, Masquerade Mourning, a haven for costume work, disguise tools, and people looking to slip the notice of dangerous eyes.

Backstory
Velza arrived in Gloomshade ten years ago, during a political coup no one dares to name aloud. Since then, she’s served as the silent tailor to masked events, secret meetings, and desperate escapees. Some say she used to work for a traveling circus, others whisper of a noble house in exile. Only one thing is certain: Velza knows everyone’s business—and tells no one’s.
