▶︎ a child of selûnites, shadowheart (then jenevelle) underwent a rite of passage involving finding her way home alone from the woods. her trial was interrupted by a mother superior viconia, a shar worshipper. though shadowheart's father tried to save her by arriving in wild shape as a wolf, the mother superior successfully kidnapped shadowheart.

▶︎ shadowheart was brought to the sharran coven in baldur's gate, where her memories were altered to erase any memory from before the cloister and to warp her father's attempt at saving her into a horrific attack that instilled in her a fear of wolves. her parents, meanwhile, were taken hostage in the bowels of the cult's dungeons and tormented.

▶︎ in baldur's gate, shadowheart was raised as a sharran cleric herself. but she was plagued with doubts and cursed with a mark that made her suffer her parents' torment any time she deviated from the sharran faith. over years, shadowheart was tortured and made to torture others under the auspices of loyalty to the dark goddess.

▶︎ shadowheart consented to having her memories erased before undertaking a dangerous mission with other clerics of shar to retrieve the astral prism from the githyanki. she was the sole survivor, but successfully acquired the prism.

▶︎ shortly thereafter, shadowheart was kidnapped by illithids and taken aboard a nautiloid where she was implanted with a mindflayer parasite. however, the astral prism prevented her transformation. she met lae'zel and [redacted] aboard the nautiloid ship.
