Sasha

Sasha is a human monk who founded Aalen Monastery nearly 800 years ago. She interacted with the party little, speaking with Cassia in her quest for Carl's Sword, and sleeping with Fortune. Otherwise, she was the force of personality that required a monastery of monks and druids to have regular parties in their Grand Hall, many of which involved party participation in the songs and dances.

She kept the monastery neutral in the Eranamian Civil War conflict as long as she could, and even while her druids work with the nature spirits, Sasha doesn't give any input into how they or Aalen operate in the war. Indeed, she doesn't do much aside from enjoy herself, either watching the sky, strolling through Corson Wood, or partying in the Grand Hall and town itself.

Many of the younger monks are enamored of her and her lifestyle, though their attempts to emulate her always end in bouts of drunkenness and public chaos, which Sasha has never been seen falling prey to. Most of the druids and many of the clerics find her to be little more than a bad influence and a holdover from a past era. Though often unused, the reality of her strength is undeniable, leaving only the question as to how it was acquired - she has no discipline, does not train, and her wisdom, if any, is never expounded upon.

Sasha, along with the rest of Aalen Monastery, perished on the 10th of Veraken. Despite her immortality, she remains dead, though for reasons unknown.
