Appearance
This Teu’Tel’Quessir is of short stature and build appears to be slender. To some she might even give the impression of being frail. She possesses some elven grace, thanks to her ancestors, though it does not extend to being agile.

He skin is pale toned with a faint blue undertone, but does not appear sickly. Her delicate face is framed by dark hair with blue undertones, in the sunlight her tresses appears to be the color of a vivid blue sapphire, while in the darkness it resembles more of the dark nightsky. A pair of light blue observant eyes measure the surroundings with interest. There is sense of depth to them should eyes meet. Though it is not something everyone would pay attention to as all encounters are unique. Faint flowery scent hovers around her.

She favors quality clothes. They are often made of fine fabrics suitable for the season. When wearing an armor, the plates are arranged in such a manner that they fit the small figure. A half-circle above a full circle is etched to one of the arm guards. On her side there appears to be two weapons — an ancient katana and a thin rapier. A bow and a shield are tied to her heavy looking backpack.

An assortment of pouches dangle from her belt and she carries a worn leather satchel on her side with an embroidery taking the shape of a circle with a half-circle above on the lid.

Emblem | Usually wears a silver necklace with a medallion in a shape of a circle surrounded by a half circle. The same shape visible on her armor's armguard and the lid of the leather satchel.

Personality Profile
She is rather quiet being. When she speaks, her voice is melodious, often soft, and might not carry very far unless raised. She has a serious and calm side that is often met first, and thus people can easily consider her cold or indifferent. She is sometimes compassionate to a fault and worries easily. She tries to appear civil and courteous, well mannered. She is not easily thrown off balance. Tendencies towards stubbornness. There is a soft and warm side to her, even playful, that occasionally surfaces and is more visible in the presence friends. She is loyal to her friends and has a caring nature.

However, she does not forget past transgressions easily. Her temper burns hot when it is lost. When trust is lost, it is a hard one to mend. Dislikes are often expressed visibly. Often thinks before speaking.

Background
The Gem of the North has her home. Born and raised in the middle of the magical and musical wonders of the foremost center of learning and culture in the North, the city of Silverymoon has surely left its mark on the elven maiden.

For a long while her life was harmonious, joyous, full of wonder, full-filling. She had found a sense of peace, a cocoon of hope and life in the safe haven she called home. Before reaching adulthood she heard the calling of the Lady of Dreams gently guiding Fierlith into her flock and became a Mooncalled. With patience the priests and priestesses instructed and educated the still young elf – telling her of the Seldarine, familiarizing her with the celestial plane and its goodly creatures but also giving an overview on the dangerous planes and their inhabitants. One of the important subjects also included the history of the elves and of magic.

Life was easy and joyous. Places of learning were many and Fierlith flourished on the path of learning beside her duties. She advanced within her clergy and became a full priestess. She was given more responsibility and she performed in earnest but not shying away from the many feast and revelries of the city.

Time passed swiftly in Silverymoon. So many places to visit, many marvels to see and countless of loremasters, artists and artisans to meet.

A letter for aid and guidance arrived on one fine eve. It was passed on to the church of the Luminous Cloud and they chose to answer the call and decided to send Fierlith to investigate as she was somewhat familiar with the petitioner.

The time for a quiet, pleasant life had come to an end. The journey to Baldur’s Gate began.

---

Even years later, when she had already moved on from the region and settled for a peaceful life, it was the pull —the unsettling inner feeling— of being needed that ultimately steered her steps towards the Gate once more. It was something she could not simply ignore. And so, there she was, watching the walls of the city with somewhat mixed feelings as past memories flooded in as the wind brushed her cheeks and tousled her hair. She stood there for a long time before she took a deep breath and stepped forward towards new beginnings. Where that path would lead her was yet to be seen for it is rarely a straight forward one.

Stories

Goals
Hidden: show
  • Nurture light against the darkness and aid those in need to your best abilities and help those astray find the better path.
  • Hold onto your ideals.
  • Keep your mind strong and your wits about.

Some plot-hook ideas
Hidden: show
  • A distant dream over the years has been to one day possess a Moonbow
  • Being a priestess of Sehanine focused on dreams and moon, prophetic dreams, omens, forewarnings are at the forefront of her capabilities. She is also drawn to mysteries and matter related to the mind and/or soul.
  • Compassion is a feature to be admired but it is also a feature easily exploited.
  • Mind is her greatest asset, but what if it fails or is taken over?
  • Lack of physical prowess can lead to precarious roads, one cannot always talk their way out of trouble.
  • Special note: Can be used to to advance other plots, I also realize that the "other side" needs successes, so if my char is at disadvantage due to that or has a drawback then that is how the world rolls

Misc facts
Hidden: show
  • Lacks in battle prowess
  • Occasionally clumsy
  • Fearless (dream domain)
  • Pays attention to people and due to that has sometimes been called a mindreader and not always in a positive sense
  • Due to past fear of heights she is still not overly comfortable with heights, strong aversion towards boats/ships as she can't swim
  • Sometimes compassionate to a fault
  • Trouble finds her, often without looking. Also suspects there is something about her (a smell, a color... something) that turns her into a bait very often
  • Due to her habit of reading people even unconsciously, she cannot handle big crowds, it is a drowning sea of noise and most likely withdraws within herself
  • Cautious towards shady characters, tieflings, genasi, unless they are familiar from previous encounters/events
  • Aversion towards orcs
  • Strong aversion towards drow

Do not trouble your heart overmuch with thoughts of the road ahead.
Maybe the path that you shall tread is already laid before your feet, even though you do not see it.
