[color=FFFACD][b]Personality:[/b][/color]
[indent]Diana is described as a charming social butterfly to most who know her. She can strike up a conversation with just about anyone and is exceedingly polite and well-mannered. She likes to observe people and chooses her words carefully before speaking, although that doesn't mean she won't be blunt when necessary. Those who abuse their power or deride the weak are often quick to anger her, and she refuses to do nothing when someone is in need.She carries herself well and studies often, though she never seems satisfied with her accomplishments. Most have confused it for humility, but it's clear that there is more to it. [/indent]
[color=FFFACD][b]Background:[/b][/color]
[indent]The region of Faron is known mostly for its farmlands. It is estimated that almost thirty five percent of Cresvald's food is grown there and has the most diverse supply. The former Prefect of Faron was a man named Hollis Simmons, a man who loved to flaunt his power. The confidence came from a lack of mages; the vast majority of Faron were farmers first and foremost, and most mages that were born in the territory typically ended up leaving. His treatment of the people seemingly went uninterrupted until one of his own battlemages challenged him to a duel. Said challenger was a young man named Calder, a brilliant elemental mage with humble origins who Hollis had taken under his wing. Hollis' overconfidence lead to his death, and Gathar Adeon, another noble, was elected to replace him.

Gathar adopted Calder into the Adeon family and eventually had his daughter marry him. Together, they had two children, Phoebus and Diana. Initially a quiet child, Diana grew up surrounded by people who were in awe of her father. While initially finding herself humbled and overjoyed, as the years went by, it was clear that people saw her more as an extension of her family--and what was worse, they had expectations of her. The days where she feared not going through noesis were probably some of her worst, as she feared failing to live up to the image people had of her. 

Fortunately, the day came, and she was overjoyed to follow in her father's footsteps as she learned from a tutor her mother appointed for her. Calder was a talented elemental mage and it seemed Diana had similar preferences. The more she learned and grew her magic, the more the comparisons came, and slowly, the pressure started to build. Diana felt that her talent didn't quite match her father's and worked excessively to achieve better results. If she couldn't reach his expectations, then she was a disappointment. If it wasn't perfect, it was a failure. The consistent comparisons and praise stuck to her, often driving her to push herself despite her young age.

When the war came, Calder left his family behind and joined the battlefield. Most believed he would die a warrior's death, but instead he went from a local hero to one known throughout the country for his feats. Diana was overjoyed to have her father back, but his return made things worse. She never blamed her father--she often cried every night hoping he would come back to them--but beneath the desire to please everyone came resentment. It wasn't just the praise from the town, Calder was now known throughout the country. 

Instead of acknowledging the immense pressure she felt, Diana thought that instead, she needed better instruction and to go outside of her comfort zone. After all, the tutor only knew so much, so a proper education was needed to fully unlock her potential. Her brother had left the year before to The Glynwood Institute For Thaumaturgical Studies, and Diana hoped she could follow his lead. Her request for a letter of recommendation was met with a little hesitance, but ultimately, she got it. She swore to herself that when she graduated, she would make her father and everyone else proud.

[color=FFFACD][b]Aura: [/b][/color]
[indent]Diana's Aura manifests as what she calls 'blossoms of nature': flowers constantly bloom before falling apart and flow around her, reforming into flowers before repeating the process. Said flowers vary, typically beginning with calla lilies and roses, and different varieties spring up as her magic grows. If one watches the flowers closely, they can see each flower is made up of a different elemental magic. Her aura has a calming effect similar to a lavender scent, though is entirely silent.[/indent]
[color=FFFACD][b]Magic: [/b][/color]
[indent]Diana enjoys a variety of elemental magic, finding herself enjoying playing with the elements and conjuring them when needed. She often shapes them into different creatures and plants for different purposes: a bird made of wind to pick something up off the ground, a flaming butterfly to light up a lantern, water in the form of a giant lily-of-the-walley to gently drip down water around her, and a turtle made of earth for her to sit on are a few examples.[/indent]
