Rosellsa Bluewater (backstory)

PSA: this does get a bit confusing so I will explain it at the end.

"I saw the scales on your arm young lady. How did you get those?" The bartender said to a girl clad in a black cloak and clothing with only one fingerless glove on her left hand with blue showing at her knuckles. 

"It's a long story" she muttered. The bartender leaned forwards on the bar facing the girl.

"I have all night" he gestures around the bar "there is nobody here, and those that are... wouldn't say a word" the girl sighs setting her beer on the bar, the bartender looks at her curious as pulls her glove off and rolls her sleeve all the way up so he can see the scales covering from her knuckles up to her elbows.

"I'm a half-elf born of a human father named Barthalum Bluewater and an elf mother named Lucy Wagner. I had a twin brother named Regan and two younger brothers named James and Joseph."

"Had?" The bartender said "is your whole family dead?"

"Yes" she replied solemnly looking up at the bartender "my father and twin died when I was 16 a blue dragon named Balthazar destroyed everything except for my house which meant that he destroyed the only livelihood that my father and brother did which is woodworking. My mother and I found them, father was dead when we got there but my brother...." she lets out a breathy sob and continues by this time a small crowd has started pilling around her "he died in my arms. Before he did he handed me a dragon scale and his personal knife. The dragon scale well once it got placed in my hand" she points out a vibrant blue colored scale on the palm of her hand "well it latched onto my hand and everyday when I wake up I would feel pain and it would either grow a couple inches or not at all.  I started to learn magic too, sometimes it would go wild and mess something up."

"So that's the original scale" someone yelled out. He got immediately slapped on the head.

The girl giggled "Yes it is."

"What's the name of your burned up town?" A deep male voice said causing the girl to look up surprised and a bit spooked.

"Shorehaven't" she replied still looking for a voice in the small crowd of now all of the people in the bar. The crowd all murmured.

"Get back to the story" a reedy voice yelled out of the blue.

"Once my mother found out that there were scales growing on my arm she started forcing me to wear cloths to cover my arm. She started becoming selfish, staring at herself for hours at a time, brushing her hair or doing her makeup. She stopped providing and just started abusing my brothers and I. So I provided." She stabs a knife in the bar and everyone jumped back "that yeah was the worst year of my life and the last year of my younger brothers" she pulls the knife back out and starts carving initials into the wood "that year I traveled all through towns and cities in Keoland just taking things I needed to feed my family. I became known as the shadow and people would lock their door every night afraid that I would get in. I would get in anyway it wouldn't matter what they did."   Everyone backed up and made sure there stuff was with there, She didn't notice "One day I was going home to my mother and brother when a mile out I spotted a blaze from my house. I ran towards it and to my horror I found my mom standing embracing the flames with my two brothers tied to a chair screaming and writhing I couldn't help. My magic wasn't working and the villagers that were left held me back so I couldn't help them. They wanted to do it themselves while keeping me alive" She takes a sip from her beer and sighs "after that I had nowhere to go and nothing to do I started to steal even more now and just sell them to buy food and a small shelter over my head. One day I decided to get my shit together and find the dragon who started this mess. So I traveled and finally when I was 18 I found the dragon I was looking for, Balthazar. I confronted him he was the one who cursed me and sent my life into a spiraling into despair. He told me that yes it was his scale but it wasn't his curse. He did promise me if I stole some things that he could not get, he was a big scary dragon and I was a puny human who could steal, than he would help me find the source of the curse and how to stop it. I agreed"
"What do you have to steal?" Said the deep voice again. The girl visible shrinks down in her cloak drawing the hood over her head around her head with one arm while clutching her cursed arm closer to her chest.
