Biography
Nyra was the red-haired woman who Flah'fle was told to look for by asking if she had a pint of Elvish bitter. The party was first introduced when they heard her screaming "that this wasn't meant to happen yet" and turned to look at her. She was accompanied by a man in ragged armour, her escort. She slapped Jaxon and asked what he was thinking and he acknowledged that he deserved it. Carl pulled his pistol on her and tried to protect Jaxon, but Nyra immediately told him to calm down, not rising to the challenge. Carl was trying to escalate and threaten her, but Flea immediately asked if she had a pint of Elvish bitter for him. She sighed, introduced herself and told them to follow her.

She explained that the airships from Bastion are coming soon and Sakiran questioned what Bastion was. She told her to ask Jaxon, who she knows would know. He pretended to not be nobility but it was extremely obvious to everyone because of the way he carried himself.

She asked Flea for his name and he told her. She said it's a terrible nickname and explained that they needed to get out now. He said they were going to grab weapons for people, and she told him to grab as many people as possible and get them out of the rear gate. Carl said that the party had an APC at the front, not the back. Nyra acknowledged his sudden lack of hostility sarcastically. Carl said he didn't care about anything but the mission, and the mission was now protecting people. He offered to grab the APC and drive it back and sneak back through the compound.

Nyra opened up a manhole and told Flea to watch those psychos as she climbed down. She used the tunnels to get through to the rear of the city quickly to the rest of the Wylders barricade. Nyra shouted to them to help people to get into vehicles. Jaxon confirmed he can drive, so Nyra ordered him into one of the vehicles filled with at least 50 people to drive it. She saw the airship descending upon the city as more people piled into the transports. Nyra cursed this and urged everyone to go immediately.

Nyra commanded Jaxon to duck right into an underground tunnel and abandon the convoy. One truck was annihilated by a shell as another swerved into the tunnel. They were now underground and underneath a stone spire. Nyra commanded Jaxon to stop. They saw from underground a huge converging purple ball of energy above the town, obliterating everyone it touched. The structure of the town was untouched. Carl floored it in the opposite direction. The vehicle was damaged by his reckless driving, but he did get away from the wave of purple lightning. The lightning started to dissipate.

The airship was taking a holding position over the town. Nyra was shocked and shaken as Sakiran asked what it was. She says it was old tech and the Gratus must be able to produce it now. She said she had heard stories about it, how it killed everyone it touched. Nyra excused herself and told Jaxon to get the people to safety. She told them to meet her in Bastion, since they are loose with security in the slums. She warned the party not to go to the upper levels and to meet her in the canal port at the bar with the pig sign. She told them to stay there for about an hour and then she drove off in another vehicle.
