Bewitched by the resplendent moonlight, but in the deepest darkness lie dangerous beasts.[/i][/sub][/center] [color=87CEFA]Full Name: Illistrianna Alderine[/color] [color=87CEFA]Nickname(s): Anna (mostly for Humans) / Sister[/color] [color=87CEFA]Gender: Female[/color] [color=87CEFA]Age: 113 years old (about 20 years old for a human)[/color] [color=87CEFA]Species: Moon Elf[/color] [color=87CEFA]About Species:[/color] Elves said to have been touched by the moon goddess’ graceful light. They mainly worship the moon as it is the very symbol of their patron goddess. These elves are particularly religious and zealous in their practice. Their dogma is to bring light in the night just as the moon does, and to smite down the terrors lurking in the darkness of the night. Moon Elves are matriarchal and while most men are either warriors or scholars of magic, females become priestesses and paladins. [color=87CEFA]Weapon(s):[/color] [i]-Silver Crescent:[/i] Representing a crescent moon, this 6 foot scythe is the bane of the strongest monstrosities lurking in the night - Vampires and Werewolves. The shaft has been crafted from Darkwood – oak that has turned black due to being alchemically enhanced to become as hard as steel – and the blade is made from refined silver and blessed by the church to become what Elves would call “Moonsilver”. This weapon is a symbol Luna Priestesses proudly display and bear in battle against the creatures of the night. The scythe has magical properties that allows it to penetrate with ease the hardened hides of both Werewolf and Vampire, as well as prevent their regeneration. Otherwise, the blade shines softly in the night, providing practically no light, but flares in a blinding flash when clashing against the forces of darkness. [i]-Full Moon:[/i] A chakram that holds the same properties as Silver Crescent, however used only when the scythe is unavailable to use. With the flick of a wrist, the handle comes loose and is tied to the blade by a retractable chain. With enough skill, one can effectively throw a chain chakram to strike from afar or use the chain to trip or disarm a foe. [color=87CEFA]Abilities:[/color] As a Luna Priestess, Illistrianna has access to a repertoire of spells drawn from the moon’s purity. Such spells are mostly supportive and aiding, which include healings, blessings, lighting and smiting night creatures. However, due to extensive research made in secret from the Luna Order, Illistrianna also masters the dark side of the night. Those spells are more aggressive than its Luna counterpart, ranging from summoning dark and shadowy creatures to demoralizing and even fear-inducing spells. Note that almost none of her spells are direct attacks against foes. Her selection of spells are mostly indirect attacks. [color=87CEFA]Reason:[/color] Believes it is her duty to find a way to cure the monarch that represents his kingdom’s order. Should he fall, Illistrianna fears the land might be thrown into chaos. [color=87CEFA]Brief Personality && Biography Description:[/color] Illistrianna is a fair maiden, plain and simple. She loves life and do her utmost to help people around her. She is by nature of her kin very generous and a naïve goody-two-shoes. She lacks awareness, and is very curious, often too much for her own good, which led her to several problems in the past. She will however never tolerate harm to come in her friends’ way. Illistrianna was born into a secluded tree-top village of Elves deep into the forest of Sylvyst. While she never knew her father, her mother was a Moon Elf that raised her in the way of the Luna people, of her people. She had a childhood akin to the children of monastery, spending her days studying the ways of Luna and praying to the goddess every night. It had been quite boring for her, being of a curious and enthusiastic nature. When her prayers were answered and finally the graces of her deity was bestowed upon her, she couldn’t be more enthusiastic. As soon as she could master the innate healing powers of a Luna Priestess, she would go out her way to actually find every little scratches to heal on people. She would often get scolded to have depleted her mental reserves before night-time ceremonies, but she couldn’t care less, as long as her people would be well. As time went on, her curious nature took her over towards the other side of the Night, forbidden by the Luna church. At first, it was a Dark Elf scholar that piqued her interest with dark magic. Her inquisitive nature wanted to know more about the night in itself, and so she took upon the stranger’s offer to help her better understand the other half of Night. Doing so led her into understanding many things that Luna couldn’t teach her, such as night creatures, dark magic and secrets kept by the higher authority of Luna. However, one day, she got mixed up in an incident. The very Dark Elf that taught her of the night’s darkest aspect had attacked the Luna church after using Illistrianna’s trust. Feeling betrayed, she lashed out at him violently, killing him accidentally. Afterwards, the Church condemned her actions and her forbidden research. She was banned from the Luna Order, stripped of her status and powers. Illistrianna roamed the land ever since, still bearing proudly the symbol of Luna. She helped people whenever she could find those in need of healing. Despite having been exiled, she still held a strong faith to her deity, for she believed no church could represent wholly the goddess. Be it because she was such faithful to Luna, or perhaps because she was considered a very young prodigy, but eventually her powers as a Luna Priestess would return to her. And mysteriously, one night, even her sacred symbols were returned to her. From that day on, her faith grew only stronger, and she continued to roam the land, practicing what SHE believed was the true teachings of Luna.
