Saelia Elbion
Appearance
Slender of frame, tapering of limb, with large brown eyes settling under thick, shapely eyebrows. She has fair skin that tans easily and is peppered with freckles along her high cheekbones and her slightly upturned nose. Over her years and adventures, Saelia has amassed a collection of scars, nicks and scratches, cuts and burns.
In terms of dress, Saelia dresses for an occasion, equally comfortable in brocaded gowns and leather armor, depending on what the situation calls for. Where her sister is prone to clumsiness, Saelia moves with grace -- slower, more deliberate, but less prone to ending up on the floor. She tends to wear gloves when in the field or working with her hands, as dirt, grime, and other unpleasantness are anathema to her.
Saelia keeps her dark hair clean and tidy, often tying the waves back into an orderly tail or bun, occasionally braiding it. She seldom wears it loose in the field, finding that is a recipe for it to be caught on everything.

Skills and Abilities
Saelia is a talented mage and scholar, with a broad base of knowledge thanks to her leg-up in attending Elbion College younger than what is considered typical. She prefers practical magic to scholarship, though she is quite capable of mustering attention to address whatever challenge is at hand.
Since graduating with honors from her first ten years at the Elbion College alongside her sister Magdalena, she has maintained a survey pursuit of knowledge. She has been hesitant to settle on a specialty, not keen to box herself in. She has taken a keen interest in astrology and historical research, though she suffers from some choice paralysis in committing to a specialty.
