ELOWYN Height - 5' 8" Hair - Black Eyes - Dark brown Skin - Dusty tan Beautiful and mysterious, Elowyn served as a priestess in the royal courts of T'aeryn. She was born on Earth and raised in the wild forests of Tangaloor, learning the lore of the forest from her mother and father. She traveled far across the Earth, learning many crafts, and eventually journeyed to the planet T'aeryn. She often received visions and prophecies of the future and became highly skilled in the ways of herbology. The Queen Imbrium, who had always lived alone with her Constellation in the heavens, became close friends with Elowyn, naming her "sister", although the Queen had none. Elowyn came to live in the palace as a confidant and advisor to the King and Queen. Elowyn assisted the Queen with the birth of the Crown Princess, receiving a vision that the Princess would one day become a great warrior. When the Princess had grown to nearly four years of age, Elowyn began to have troubling dreams full of smoke and fire. She dreamt that she was standing on a silver sea before a great crystal sphere ringed by eight stars. She saw a dark fire engulf the sphere and looking down she realized she was holding a warm spark of light in her hands. The crystal globe would shatter, sending shards of glass in all directions, the eight stars fell to the sea which became red with blood. A dark menacing shadow would threaten her and the light she carried. Elowyn always awoke before the shadow could touch her, but she suspected that the shadow was a human being. The visions grew more and more clear as the weeks past and she finally went to the Queen. The Queen was troubled too, for she had heard news from the Parhelia that the Earth seemed to be getting darker and colder. A great trembling could be felt occasionally from underneath the Earth's crust, as if many feet were marching below. Imbrium told her friend to keep a close watch on the Earth for a rare solar eclipse of the sun was about to happen in a few days time. Then, on the day of the eclipse, as Elowyn was watching her still reflection in her scrying bowl, she fell into a trance, and could only watch, frozen, as the dream replayed itself even more vividly than before. This time she heard screams of pain and terror as the black fire washed over the crystal sphere. The small spark in her hands glowed even more brightly, flooding the silver sea with a clear, strong light. The dark shadow that had pursued her so many times in the past, grew larger at the sight of the spark she carried. Elowyn tried to hide the light, but it pulsed even stronger. The dark mass in front of her solidified, and as it reached out for her with smokey black hands, she could just make out the features of a man she knew. And Elowyn woke up, realizing that the screams ringing in her ears from her dream were real. She ran for the King and Queen but it was too late, the planet had already fallen to the Armies of the Evil One. The Queen forced the young Princess into her arms and bade her to flee to Earth where she would be safe. Imbrium would stay on T'aeryn and defend the planets of Light from the tides of darkness. Elowyn never saw the Queen again. Minutes after they had crossed the threshold of the Star Gate, a flash of light so brilliant, it blinded, sent shockwaves throughout space. The Princess was taken deep into isolation, hidden away from the prying eyes of the world and raised in the forest. Elowyn sealed away her memories of the Great Fall, telling the young girl that she was her Aunt. When the time came, she would tell the Princess everything about her past. Elowyn taught her everything she knew about the forest, the plants, and the animals. However, when the Princess came to be of twelve years old, Elowyn was once again threatened by dark visions. Fearing the worst, she had the Princess sent away with trusted friends to be looked after for a short while. One night, an evil shadow calling himself "Malus" showed up at her cottage, bearing news that his master, the Dark Lord's Chosen, would like to have a few words with her. Before she could react, the General of Tirisfal was in front of her, the betrayer and murderer of the planet T'aeryn. He had tracked the Princess to this forest and wanted the last member of the royal family within his grasp. Elowyn refused to tell him anything, even after she was tortured. Jareil, in a temper, set Malus and his Shadow Wolves on her. Elowyn fought bravely, courageously, but in the end, she died a most terrible, grisly death.
