Bamboo had been a slave of the Splugorth since she was cloned by her “mother”. Taking on the duties of herding slaves she resented the rule over her life and as she grew in skill she began to think that it was possible to escape. Her first attempt at escape was foiled very quickly and she was severely punished and tortured. She managed to pass off the attempt as a mistake and that she had merely gotten lost, but this was not enough to save her from severe retribution. Bamboo’s punishment left scars across her back, legs and arms.
Back in the service of the Splugorth her hope of escape dimmed until one day a herbalist named Tome noticed the scars on her when she tried to capture him. He offered her help to escape. She didn’t know why he helped her, but she jumped at the chance. Tome provided her with contacts, escape routes and arms. The next few years were spent planning the escape to England. Three others were to escape with her.
Bamboo and her three escapees made a clean escape as planned from their Splugorth prison, but after things became tougher. The Splugorth sent their minions to re-capture/kill the escaped slaves and bring them back. They had a head start but the pursuit caught up to them very quickly. Rather than be taken they fought to the death if in danger of being re-captured. Two of the party died on the way to England.

Bamboo was left travelling with a Dragonosaurus named Sylvester (Sly for short). As they continued on to England they talked and became friends, helping each other along the way. As they were nearing England they ran into some trouble with a group of mercs and bounty hunters that recognized them as escaped slaves. Even though there was no bounty on their heads they knew there was reward to be had for killing or capturing and escaped slave so they attacked without mercy. Bamboo and her only friend fought as best they could, but during the fighting they became separated and she never found out what happened to Sly. When she saw an opening for escape she took it slipping away from the fight and stowing away on a boat bound for England and freedom. Quietly mourning the loss of her friend she hoped that she had escaped as well, but in her heart Bamboo knew the odds were slim and it was more likely her friend had died.

She arrived in England tired and depressed, but free. She kept to the wilderness scrounging what she could to continue living laying as low as possible. Afraid of discovery she only entered small towns to trade when she had to. Because of her scars she wore long sleeves and a hood to cover her blindness. After awhile she relaxed a bit and started taking odd jobs as a bodyguard. Bamboo is known as an excellent bodyguard and fighter, although she still remains low key. She is known in the smaller towns of England for her skills and can be contacted when necessary for jobs.
