To understand about this girl, first born as Angelisa, one would first have to understand her mother. namida’s mother was of Earth. She was a beautiful woman, from a caravan that those of Earth would call gypsies. She was a strong-willed and incredibly beautiful woman, with her tawny skin, black hair and almond shaped eyes that seemed to endlessly burn with fire. To this day, however, it still remains a mystery of how namida’s mother ended up on Gor.namida’s mother was beautiful and was sold into slavery at once. However, she was cunning and strong and refused to submit and a man was interested in how smart and clever she was. He bought her, released her, and eventually her mother became his free companion and eventually he became this girl’s father. When namida was born, her parents were in a plains camp, although this girl doesn’t know where. It was comfortable to her mother, as it reminded her of the traveling caravans of her past, so her father attempted to make it work.

The one night, right after namida's birth, there was a savage raid on the camp. All the women and slaves were taken, the men were killed. Her father did not have the heart of a warrior and as soon as the raid started, he took his daughter and what belongings he could easily gather and fled back to his home of Port Kar. That’s where this girl was raised, spoiled and lavished. And the girl was just like her mother. At times she was very strong-willed, beautiful, but most of all smart. Her father was an entertainer and owned a tavern, where different kinds of entertainers would seek work. Because of this, the girl owned a variety of skills, including to read and write and to sing, as well as some more entertaining skills, such as telling fortunes in Bazi leaves. But much to her father’s dismay, that is also where she met the one who would make her submit into slavery. Unlike her mother, she had the belly and fire of the slaves that ran about her father’s tavern. She would often get jealous at the attention the slave girls got, with their exquisite beauty. It was there that a man, Sooma, first saw a girl. He was handsome and strong and powerful and this girl fell instantly in love. The only problem was that he had a free companion and while he wanted namida, he loved his FC. The only way around that problem was for the girl to submit. And so she did because her love was so strong that it cost her her freedom.

The girl took Sooma’s collar and remained in it for quite some time. His free companion was bitter to the liking that he took in the lowly slave and eventually convinced him to sell the girl. He didn’t have the heart to sell her, because he was a kind man and knew that he was the reason she lost her freedom. So taking her away, he uncollared the girl and left her in the vast city of Tor. Because of her beauty, she was immediately caught and collared to Master Samos, and He immediately changed the girl’s name to sneak, for the way that she was quick and quiet and agile. The girl stayed happily in Tor as his first girl for quite some time, before he decided that He didn’t want to be in Tor and no longer wanted to own slaves, so he took the girl and her sisters to Sardar Fair, selling them to the Fair.

A girl worked there for quite some time, until a woman thought that, with a little more training, she could sell the girl for quite a bit. She bought her from Sardar and changed her name to ballari and served Naomi for quite some time. Although a girl never heard the details of it, Mistress Naomi was eventually killed and ballari was released on her own into the plains. Upon her release, she took the name flit, as it reminded her of the days in Tor where she was known as sneak. For a while, she thought of remaining free and taking to the caste of entertainers. By this time, she had been a slave for so long that it was the only thing her heart and mind understood. One night, as fate would have it, the girl found herself approaching a camp, the Camp of Harigga. It was here where Stryker convinced a girl to submit once more and she was gifted the name searah. Stargazer became interested in her and was bought by him. He renamed her namida and the girl has been serving him ever since.
