Chapter 7.50

Liska Coresh Silverfang is a Gnoll, and Ishkr’s younger sister. She is an employee at The Wandering Inn

Appearance[edit | edit source]

She resembles her older brother,[1] though she has light grey fur, and a snaggle tooth.[2]

Personality[edit | edit source]

Unlike her hard-working brother, Liska has a poor work ethic. She resents being bossed around by Ishkr, which contributes to her irritable attitude. She has anarchist tendencies and belongs with a group of friends that follows Sellme. She also is something of a nonconformist, as she has a habit of kissing other females in public, antagonizing the older Gnolls, and throwing rocks at Peslas's window for being a speciesist. Though she initially disliked her job as the operator for the Magical Door, she starts enjoying it after gaining the [Doorgnoll] class and counter-leveling by preventing people like Tyrion Veltras from entering the inn.

Background[edit | edit source]

Chronology[edit | edit source]

Volume 7[edit | edit source]

During the Golden Triangle riot in Liscor, Ishkr was worried about his sister, Liska, because she was missing. He had been asking Erin and anyone else if they had seen her, and was planning to go look for her, but was stopped by the others because it was dangerous in the city. While still worried he believing that she may be okay as it was possible that she was with the rioters, and went to help wait tables to occupy himself. Drassi having heard about the situation, and happen to know more about Liska than others, would later talk about her to Erin and reveal that she was a Turnscale, preferring females over males, which is why Ishkr doesn't want her found in front of everyone, except for him and Erin. Ishkr would later eventually find her, much to his relief.[3]

Liska is hired as one of The Wandering Inn's new staff as a favor to Ishkr, though she is unhappy about it.[1] She becomes the attendant for the magic door.[4]

Volume 8[edit | edit source]

Liska is one of the few staff who is still retained after The Wandering Inn is partially closed down.[5] She continues her role as attendant to the magic door; however, after the door is moved to Liscor, she is fired after two days due to laziness.[6]

Volume 9[edit | edit source]

After The Wandering Inn reopens, Liska is rehired, mostly due to Ishkr and Erin wanting to keep her out of trouble.[7] She is forced to take on more roles, like cleaning and bartending due to lack of staff.[8]

While Erin and some of the inn's family are at Riverfarm, Liska contemplates quitting her job, but decides to stay for the moment due to feeling sorry for Ishkr, who had broken up with his girlfriend. However she starts noticing something odd about him, as he seems to be in multiple places at once around the inn.[9]

Liska is the first to notice that the magic door was destroyed, unaware that it was "deconstructed" and replaced with Erin's new Skill, [Door of Portals]. [10]She gains the [Doorgnoll] class, which she considers to be the "worst class ever."[11]
