Appearance


Elinyra was once a normal elf. Her transformation after being cursed with a peculiar blight has left her with an appearance and identity that is barely recognizable from who she once was. Arboreal aspects appear to have interwoven themselves with her otherwise elven features, making it difficult to tell at first glance if she was an elf transformed partially into a tree, or a living tree partially carved into the image of an elf. The scent of pine permeates the air wherever she goes.

Her long hair falls down her back in varied shades of deep earthy browns and greens. Twigs and leaves seem to be constantly woven into the strands, and on some days (for reasons completely unknown to her) flowers appear only to vanish the next day. Her eyes are emerald green tinged with streaks of black. Areas of her warm terra-cotta colored skin (most notably her right arm, right side of her face, and back) have a striated mosaic texture reminiscent of tree bark and is tougher than normal. Other patches of her skin show light green veins akin to those of leaves beneath.

Her right hand, the first part of her to be blighted, is more like carved wood than flesh, though this doesn't seem to affect its flexibility in any way.

Skills and Abilities


She seems to have lost her powers both in the druidic arts and the death shroud from her curse...

She inherited Vyr's dagger Falthedyn, which he used to infect victims with the blight when he was alive. She keeps it hidden in hopes that it will never be used again.
