Concept A young woman with a love for Storms. She finds them to be beautiful and powerful and can frequently be found praying to Zulrav, asking him to allow a storm to occur Character Personality Elin is a cheerful woman with a positive outlook on life. She lives everyday and spends little time worrying about the future, although she does have goals. She usually appears composed, able to find solutions to problems by thinking calmly for a minute or two, but when she's faced with a problem she can't solve she is likely to get very angry or annoyed and cry. She does get angry quite often, especially around people that don't share her views, but finds it easy to hide most of her emotions behind a fake smile until she is alone and can relieve her emotions Pre-Creation History Elin was born in the midst of a storm to two healthy yet older humans in Lhavit just over 20 years ago. Her father died after becoming ill when she was three, and soon after she attended the Alluvion Academy in Lhavit until she was 14. She began working with her mother, helping her to serve in the taverns until she was 16 when she met a man she believed she loved and fell pregnant. After he left her to travel the lands, Elin decided she wanted to see more than just Lhavit and told her parents that she wished to travel. With her mothers blessing (on the premise that she wrote them letters and that they could eventually meet their grandchild), she packed up a few things and began to travel. Soon she boarded a trade ship that visited a variety of places ending at Riverfall. During this time she found herself suffering from severe morning sickness and saw very little of the other cities. Then when they were almost at Riverfall they encountered a rough and violent storm that drained the crew, but fortunately they arrived at Riverfall before the worst hit. She spent a few seasons working in Riverfall while attempting to plan her journey, before travelling with some Svefra (on the premise that she helped them out on board and paid them) to Alvadas where they spent some time relishing in Ionu's domains. After Alvadas, she travelled with a ship to Syliras, then travelled across Syliras via land and boat to Mura whilst on Mura, she spent a lot of time with a konti family and developed a close friendship with them, but soon find herself craving love and attention. Eventually she found herself in bed with a human man, soon after which she found herself pregnant again. She wasn't fond of leaving Mura while pregnant, but found herself missing her mother and she opted to leave to somewhere that her mother would be able to get to easier. Finally she made her way back to Syliras, having viewed the place as somewhere that her mother could enjoy. At each of her stops she worked a few jobs to make sure she could afford her journey, and attempted to be on a journey with someone that had medical knowledge, although Riverfall to Alvadas and the boat to Mura didn't have any medical personnel onboard Since her arrival in Syliras, she has sent three letters to her mother, inviting her to come to Syliras and live with her. She received one letter agreeing, another detailing her mothers travel plans, and one letter from her mothers close friend apologising to say that her mother had been killed by a Symenestra just after leaving Lhavit. This letter arrived shortly after she gave birth to her son. Post-Creation History Spring 517 ~

Relationships   Alvadas   Syliras Garland 19, Human Elin first met the squire in the riots at the docks, though she didn't really get to know him until they arranged a play date for their children. Elin enjoys his company and is glad to know that he is one of the ones watching over Syliras. She considers Garland her friend, and she adores his infant twins, Phobos and Aneeka, and wishes to keep contact with him. Roselina 21, Human Elin met Roselina in the riots at the docks. She doesn't really think much of the girl, but she's glad that the young woman cared enough about children to help her, Rion and Ilia. She thinks Roselina is more of an acquaintance. Aladari 18, Vantha Elin met Aladari in the Great Harbour in the midst of the heat wave, mostly due to Ilia's stubbornness. They talked a lot and then both opted to go get something to drink in the shade. Though she doesn't know Aladari well, she appreciated the young woman's company and wouldn't be against meeting her again
