Name: Shinnareth Who Dances in Darkness

Alignment: Chaotic Neutral

Race: Aiuvarin (Half-Elf)​

Classes: Shinnareth possesses a feytouched sorcerous bloodline, and a foundation of fighting knowledge with a greatsword, but the bulk of her focus is on bardic talents.

Bio: Shinnareth is an Aiuvarin who was born in the southern reaches of the Palukar forest, in a series of riverside grottos along the Profit's Flow River. This environment has given elves from this region a unique dusky blue-grey coloration, which is often imparted to their half-blooded offspring as well, including Shinnareth herself.

Part of the traditions of Shinnareth's people include touching a specific stone obelisk, rumored to have been created by the Nymphs in the nearby court of seasons, who have, on rare occasions, interacted with Shinnareth's community.

Her mother was a native of this region, but her father traveled across much of the world as a ranger for the faraway northlands of Irrisen.

Appearance: Shinnareth is quite tall for an Aiuvarin, at around 5'10". This is largely attributed to her father, who was quite a tall and pale man from Irrisen. She wears dramatic black makeup in a striking style, truly dramatic enough to be called warpaint, featuring lipstick, eyeliner, and eyeshadow. A crescent moon is often painted in the center of her forehead. Her eyes are a piercing aquamarine color, and her sclera a grey tinge. She has platinum white hair, which she wears pinned behind her pointed ears and flows loosely back behind her, nearly to her hips. She is quite a picture of lithely muscled curves, and her facial features are a mix of pale Irrisen beauty and the grace of elves.

Personality Traits


  • I am a creature of unapologetic passion and sincerity.

Ideals


  • Creative and amorous endeavors forge bonds stronger than any oath or arcana.
  • I firmly believe that the power of love can heal the world.

Bonds


  • My religious bonds with both Shelyn and the Green Mother are paramount to me, and represent many aspects of my personality.
  • True romantic love is the highest ideal and I will defend it with dying breath.

Flaws

  • I am very likely to flirt with any woman who enters my line of sight.
  • Though I am many things, level-headed and subtle are rarely among them.
  • I am impulsive and occasionally flighty.
