==Early Life==
{| align=left |

Known as Ammika'newan and one of Bane's earliest supports. She has led a colorful life. When the BlinkieQueen (as she puts it) first came upon them. She was known as General Ammika of the Thousand and One Fey Army; Bane's army that battled against the forces of Hope's calling. The Thousand and One Fey Army were 'lost' to protecting the prison of the BlinkieQueen. Upon the death of the BlinkieQueen, the Thousand and One Fey Army have returned to the gardens.  In their absence, came the newans. The elite of Bane's forces and a family within Dutches of Winter's Court. The newans would fall at Hel'byssia, where they held the line, but one lived. The Last Rose, Ammika herself. Who would, a few weeks later, be sent back to Hel'byssia to put a stop to Queen Hope's Elite forces 'The Sons of Life" from breaking the wards and freeing the already touched by the madness of the Blue Star. The Last Rose vs hundreds of elite trained summer Fey and led by former General Winter at that. It is said by a few sources amount the fey that she warned them once to withdraw and they didn't. The next moment is generally agreed that she did something and then they were exploding, turning to ash, melting, or simply gone. All of them but three brothers that formed the Leadership of the Suns of Life. Letting them escape, started the longest blood feud in history. As a result, the battles between Ammika and the Suns of Life had gotten out of control. In an attempt to save the Last Rose, Bane took extreme steps in warding off (some say) or removing (as others say) Ammika's memories of herself and her life. From there, created her two sisters to guard and be with her. Then plunged them into an unknown future and unaware of where they would appear.

'''Place of Birth:''' [[Brekon (nation)|Brekon]]/[[Dubunat | Dubunat Boarder Forest]]
Beyond that it's all black, the pages of her memory are blank, or simply does not know anymore. This could explain why she always asks dragons and kin if they know her or says "The journey to the answers is just as important as the answers themselves."


'''Age:''' Roughly 150


'''Gender:''' Female
=====Brekon/Dubunat/Deglos Border Forest=====

When she was taken forward in time and hidden from the Suns of Life. She was with the Amakiirs of the Copper Dragon branch, who had departed the [[The_Great_War|Great War]] effort in [[Le'Or_T'Nanshi|Le'Or]] due to the treatment of dragons and had spent decades in hiding while the war went on. With peace, they traveled overland through [[Deglos]] and found the spot to their liking. Nawen is the child of Caellian Amakiir and Nawen woman questionable history and honor; she was the third of their four children. She was born at the family hamlet at the height of winter; that bordered the forest along [[Brekon_(nation)|Brekon]], [[Dubunat]], and [[Deglos]]. A harsh but lovely place to be. Among the highland forest with its extreme seasons and breathtaking landscape. The hamlet was home to the Amakiir family and some friends existed with uneasy peace with the orcs. Both farmed and traded between themselves but with a nearby dwarven outpost. Some twelve years into her young life, she out on a walk amongst the trees with her Grandfather Ariqueael as he taught her about nature and life. As they returned to the hamlet. To their horror, the Orcs were razing the hamlet. She was too young to help and the events still today have haunted her in dreams/nightmares. Ariqueael took her deeper into the forest and to the mountains of Deglos avoiding contact with others as they traveled. Finally when they reached Le’Or where he placed her in the care of the Ael’nyon family to raise as they had no children on their own. A family that she was told by Arigueal they were 'Trusted' by Amakiirs for ages and ages; that they look after her and protect her. To this day, she isn't how much of this is true and happened or implanted. Yet, she has a strong feeling some of it is true and someone very close to her betrayed her by revealing her secret and caused the death of those watching and protecting her.<BR>

Xandor’s children had escaped with their mother who fell days later to her injuries as did a few others.  Although not an Amakiir, [[PCs:Elong_Singalong|Elong]] was the cherished friend of Xandor who spoke of her in words of being family; making her family to Nawen in her own eyes. This is just the family that broke away from T'Nanshi after the Great War and relocated to the Brekon/ Dubunat Border Forest. Amakiir's of different family lines like the 'Silver and Bronze Dragons' stayed within T'Nanshi and Elysia and can still be found today through the bond isn't as tight as it once was due to politics mostly.

Nawen grew up in [[T'Nanshi|Le’Or]] as the pale-skinned, red-headed child of Elarovan and Sheae Ael’nyon; an elderly and childless couple that the only thing they shared was pointy ears but they loved her as their own. There she grew up in the safety of the Spiritland under their ever-watchful eyes and strict rules. Over the decades as she grew into a young lady between Ariqueael visits. One day when he was expected to arrive, a young Nawen sat outside the house waiting. She waited for days and then weeks; spending all her free time waiting and searching for the sight of the old man that took such great interest in her life. One rainy day a young man came to the house and spoke to Elarovan for some great time. As he left he gave Elarovan a small pack and a staff then bid him farewell. Nawen was able to start putting things together when she heard that Ariqueael would never be visiting again.


'''Distinguishing Marks:''' Tattoo of a [[Jechran]] Rose upon her face in purple and gold
Shortly after the loss of Ariqueael, Elarovan and Sheae started to speak of marriage for young Nawen. Always talking about the available men about the Spiritland and how she will marry one of them. This did not sit well with young Nawen; who had dreams of seeing the world outside of Le’Or. Inside the family home, talk of events like the war with M’chek was not allowed as it pained the Elarovan and Shaea to even hear the words war. She was naïve and sheltered from real life. So, one night sneaking out the door with hardly a thing with her, she said her goodbyes to those she knew as her 'second' parents and closed the door while they slept. She walked into her new life. Upon slipping out of the district and making her way out of Le’Or and to the forest floor, she was shocked at the vastness of the world. After thinking she knew what she was going to do and started walking along the path. There she was greeted by a lady with a giant sword and sung in a soft voice; started asking all sorts of questions of Nawen and being very naïve thought she was being robbed. So, she ran south following the well-worn path and the lady chased her for some distance yelling stop with almost every step. Finally, Nawen noticed the trees were no longer around her and the grass was no longer green. There were bodies discarded about the ground and the air reeked of death. Nawen had found the war and was right in the middle of it. She wondered south to afraid of the lady with the giant sword to travel north back into the forest, she found a path and followed it. She slowly made her way to the city of Mikona.


'''Alignment:''' [[Alignment#Neutral_Good|Neutral Good]]
==Mikona==
====Education in Life====
Her years in [[Mikona]] are something she has really spoken about. Though she isn’t ashamed of her life there some secrets should be guarded. Now and then she does speak of a one-eyed thief and flirty mysterious lady she met there over her time there. Some rumors place her as a burglar and others have her doing more unspeakable deeds in the dead of night. Generally, it is accepted that she did work at the notorious 'The Canvas Club'; where she served drinks, and is believed she also worked as a courtesan out of the Noble Flair Inn. Is believed she did very well for herself in that endeavor. It is said that when she did leave she left in such a hurry that she didn't even check out of the inn and fled the city.


'''Deity:''' [[Dre'Ana]]  
==Elysia==
====Friends Made====
After a series of events in Mikona, Nawen went by boat to Ferrell and then to [[Elysia]] seeking to better herself and mend her wayward ways. She left Mikona, carrying a book about [[Dre'Ana]] and a ticket for a boat; that she found as she fled. For a few days, she spends her time sheltering from the rain and reading the book she found.  She lived in the Temple for a while and even at Sorben's Fine Threads where the Sorben's and Deamona had taken to her company; not to mention supplied her with an entirely new wardrobe too. Started to teach her the art of the needle and fashion.


'''Residence:''' [[Elysia]]
====Dre'Ana and her Maidens====
The more she rereads it the more she hears her calling in life. Soon she out looking for them and she finds them. She meets with Sala Te'Dwith and that day becomes a [[Guild:Maidens|Warrior Maiden]] and faithful lady of Dre’Ana. For many years she searched within herself for her true meaning and asked for a sign of what she should do in her life. Then she found it one day, the day Sister [[PCs:Mowghina_Moonblood|Mowghina Del'Torhan]] placed a small sword in her hand and spoke of honor within the blade and honor in combat, in life, in action. Her path was clear and her mind made up. Through she wanted to hide in the shadows and ply her art in that fashion. She takes to light and performs art for all to see. Nawen found inner peace in her life and for once a reason for her. She took up training in private and with her sisters and their friends. She became friendly and somewhat comfortable with people. Letting people get to know her and let Arena tease her often calling her the cute one when she introduces Nawen to people that were known well enough and telling them they were sisters. She started to be known as a prankster to her sisters and newfound friends.


'''Titles & Ranks:'''  
====Second Fey War and the large war====
*Matron/Arch Mistress of the [[Guild:Maidens | Warrior Maidens]] of Dre'Ana
{| align=left |
*Mistress of the Short Sword
| https://i.imgur.com/g2rZqZN.png
*Vanguard Valkyrie of Dre'Ana
|}
*Bow Maiden of Dre'Ana
Nawen had come to Elysia and the war was knocking on the gate. She was a Warrior Maiden Initiate and learned tactics and combat styles the hard way through real combat. She quickly started to make a name for herself as one that didn’t give up easily. She trained hard to maintain the image of Warrior Maidens as warriors and pushed herself further and further down the path to understanding the sword and herself. She fought in countless defensives of Elysia and impressed her sisters with the passion that she was promoted. In doing so, Nawen set a record for the fastest path for promotion in the history of Warrior Maidens.  With her promotion, she became an official member of the [[Elysian_Defense_Force|EDF]], till then she had been helping where she could. She would become one of the Maiden scouts and worked alongside the EDF and her sisters not only in defending Elysia but leading the way to strike back. She took part in many battles including the first outright victory Elysian forces had at the [[Eridanian_River|Eridanian River]].
*Shield Maiden of Dre'Ana
 
*Princess Obvious
Shortly later the [[Elysian_Auxiliary_Volunteers|EAV]] was formed where she would train a few that would become famous for archery and tactics and while they prepared and trained; Nawen stayed with the EDF as a scout till the EAV was ready for action. She joined them and found herself no longer a scout which left her confused at losing her [[Elf,_Drangonari|Drangonari]] squad that she had become attached to. She took to the bow and led the archers as there wasn't much of a need for her sword given all the other members. She arose in rank to 1st sergeant and was addressed by Lady Vanoviel along with four others that she served with at an ambush near the Balor Lord Prison where a combined EDF/EAV force held the high ground and broke the back of the Unseelie; Elysia lost no one in the battle and Unseelie lost everyone. Within a week the [[NPCs:Vanoviel_Niltaurwen|Lady Vanoviel]] would depart on her way to Le'Or to talk about Elysian independence and the war. As she and her elite Champions left the city. Nawen was on duty upon the archer's platform and shouted down her often heard 'Dre'Ana loves you Vanoviel' to her and she shouted back that there will be lots to talk about when she returns and she makes sure to have a drink with her. She was ambushed hours later east of the Fairy Gardens and was taken from us.

|}<br>
 
Was the last time she ever heard a kind word from anyone of rank during the war. Through she still fought on, she found herself becoming uncertain of who was really in charge after the death of Lady Vanoviel. After a rather tough defense of the city, she was placed on guard duty by a higher ranking officer as the rest of EDF/EAV were honored by the Fey for their actions. She still fought for the defense of Elyisa and served in Nanshi as the Elysian forces where she was sent off mostly on her own. In the end, completely disillusioned by her commanders and what she was doing she sought retirement. Retirement was granted and greeted with whispers of a coward by those that never fought in heavy combat or on unknown mission. The war ended and the people rejoiced. The City of Elysia was to thank those that served in a public ceremony and all that fought were sought to attend regardless of standing; except word came from the ranking officer that Nawen was not to attend due to her retirement.
 
Soon enough she is called to duty one day as she awoke to learn that people were ill and the leaders of Elysia had sealed the city. All uniformed EDF was to protect the borders and stop all travel. She guarded as requested during the exceedingly long time it took to find a cure for this plaque tempers flared in Elysia and within the EDF. Nawen found herself more than almost drawing her blade against fellow officers accusing her of not following orders even though other officers were stating she was at her post. If the politics of war lead to her disillusionment in the war, the politics of peace destroyed her to the core of how people plotted each other. She also worked alongside her uncle Xandor in obtaining and handing out scrolls with the words written upon them that would lessen the plague. By the time the plague was a cured and the guards were withdrawn to allow travel again. Nawen slowly noticed that there was hardly a single Warrior Maiden about Elysia. She too would depart for newer lands on the plane of Yassgard where she meets the Crimson Amazons that would shape her views and yet remind her of those that taught her.
 
During her time traveling between Elysia to help out when needed and attend Warrior Maiden matters which were quickly decreasing and spending her free time in Mithro Rest on the plane of Yasgard. She meets the one person that would capture her attention and her undying friendship; [[PCs:Aria_Ashby|Aria Ashby]]. Nawen was her bodyguard to protect her from assassins sent by the Lord of Night to kill Aria and steal something from her. Nawen fulfilled those duties and during those times the two became instant friends and inseparable. However, the magic that allowed us to walk the planes and travel to other worlds was starting to weaken. With the bonds losing their strength two more trips were made to see their friends and Crimson Amazons whom both were members of. On the last trip, they said their fond goodbyes and stepped into the weakened magic bonds before they failed.
 
====Leadership: Dreams and Nightmares====
{| align=left |
| https://i.imgur.com/7cgp60E.png
|}
With her return to Elysia and the refreshed attitude; she became more confident and more vocal in her desires. As she looked around herself she noticed that many of the notable sisters were not to be seen. Gone were the large gatherings and meetings with talk of planning for the future and how to help those around us.  Instead, meetings were turning into screaming matches and ego displays. Though she won’t claim to be innocent as she showed her one in those meetings; including a meeting that detailed the Arch Mistress failed assassination of someone that needed to die but was forbidden by the powers of Elysia to seek her death. She walked away and didn’t return for some time. She left a letter resigning her position in the Maiden Lore Keeper and packed up the supplies she need then departed on her own path to finish her training with the blade. It had been decades since she took up the art of swordplay and there was still more to do before feeling comfortable with the training.  She did stay in contact with one sister that watched over the Warrior Maidens and kept abreast of her whereabouts. Nawen received a letter stating the Arch Mistress had left the order and to return at once as she was needed. She did return and was elected by those present to become the seventh Arch Mistress the Warrior Maidens would have in Elysia.
 
In her time as the seventh Arch Mistress, she oversaw a rebirth within the Warrior Maidens. Those that severed alongside her were the best she had seen and it showed. Nawen was graced with more titles than anyone can remember and the order gained in honor and in strength. The deeds they performed cover an immense time from aiding Fanos to rescuing sailors to even taking on a wayward boyer and even aiding a far-off land across the planes just to name a few. She also drove deeper into the lore of Maidens and learned more about those that came before her and their actions. She wrote reports on them as long as books themselves which became a book itself detailing the history of the Maidens and their members from the first Warrior Maidens all the way to the newest ranking Warrior Maiden.
 
Through moments partly of her own making and of those around her that hide their ideals. She retired after a rather eye-opening and nasty period of time in which she saw betrayal, lies, and outright dishonor from many she thought a friend. She petitioned to become Phoenix Valkyrie and was awarded such becoming the eighth one to achieve such a rank.  It was during this time that Nawen was assassinated and an old rare sword once carried by [[PCs:Melonius_Mennallin|Melonius Mennallin]] and stolen from her by Demaon in Elysia. Through proof was showing that a former Maiden was involved in plotting her assassination the leaders of Elysia never took action nor did the church of Dre’Ana. This would affect Nawen for long time as to her views of both.
 
====Jechran Mission====
{| align=right |
| https://i.imgur.com/BjMLyVV.png
|}<br>
As of Phoenix Valkyrie, it is expected that one takes on special duty to perform. Nawen had seen this when she saw four others promoted into the honored rank. Given that she saw the refugees from Jechran and heard the stories that troubled her she had spoken with the High Priest of Elysia and accepted from her a special duty. That duty was to travel to [[Jechran]] and investigate the taint that overtook the land and was spreading. She agreed and with just a note left behind stating not to follow she departed for Jechran. Upon reaching Jechran the sight was unthinking as everything was dead; the land, the animals, and the people that couldn’t escape. Images of which still haunt her to this very day in her dreams but she did reach her target; an abbey between the border of Gados and the Jechran capital. There she found books of Maiden lore and most importantly the remains of a messenger carrying letters and orders. One of which was even addressed to herself at her former rank of Archmistress telling her to get ready for a mass exodus from Jechran and to stay away from the land itself. Some described the madness of the taint and others the death. As she departed the death she took water, soil, and bone samples along the way for others to study. As she was hurrying to escape before nightfall and to avoid spending the night within the taint; the sure-footed and nimble Nawen tripped over a dead root and shattered her right leg. She crawled her way to an old farmhouse where she attempted to brace herself and rest. There she saw a sight that meant everything to her.  In so much pain and memory of the events blur what happened isn’t for certain but what is known is that she was found above the town of Visimontium in the high mountain passes by Vanar. He stated she was clutching a dragon bone as a crutch under one arm and wildly swinging one of her swords in the other hand as she screamed and yelled blindly moving about. He was able to get her to drop her sword and she collapsed a moment later. The Maidens were sent for and a trusted sister came to escort Nawen back to Elysia. Where the healers ordered bed rest for her so her leg would heal; which lasted four years with another six years learning to walk again without her dragon bone crutch. One day she may even publish the tale of what she saw and learned on that journey.
 
====Aftermath====
{| align=left |
| https://i.imgur.com/n4WrVXq.png
|}
As she healed and recovered she accepted a role from the newly elected eighth Arch Mistress to advise her and the order. She accepted it and the idea of bringing all the Jechran Refugees came to mind. With the aid, of the White, Ivory, and Green orders a huge portal was enchanted and women came to Elysia to be with the rest of their faith. The portal would be Nawen’s last task she helped with or saw after as a Warrior Maiden. Shortly after the portal tempers flared after some Maidens went against standing orders and Nawen took that to heart by pointing it out. With that, she withdrew to her home in Elysia to figure out her life and her next steps. Time would pass and she would be summoned again to Maiden Keep. Now serving under the Ninth Arch Mistress and fulfilling the same role as before she retired from the order completely. The last words she heard as she departed were “Fuck You, Nawen!” That sealed her thoughts of the Warrior Maidens as a whole for the most part outside of a few dear friends.
 
Nawen walked right out of the Maiden Keep and into [[T'Nanshi]] where she enlisted in the famed 6th [[Guild:_Le'Nofaythen'T'Nanshi|Le’Nofaythen’T’Nanshi]] as a recruit to fight another war. However, she wasn't through with Dre’Ana yet. When not on patrol along the northern reaches she spent her time in her private shrine to Dre’Ana. Where she pleads for an answer for days on end without acknowledgment from her beloved Dre’Ana about why things are as they are. Finally in a true fit of rage Nawen challenged her to answer her questions and explain why certain things happened the way they had or she would walk away from her lady. Dre’Ana never answered and very next day lifted her love from Nawen in a display she won’t forget. It was later explained by a few that serve everlasting to another god. That Nawen had hurt Dre’Ana deeply with her rage and passion on this certain topic. In the same fashion, Dre’Ana lashed out at Nawen hurting her deeply.  Some have said they fought each other and stumbled away. Only to regain their strength and start it up again. The goddess and one of her most passionate followers; each stopped before something unthinkable happened as Dre'Ana walked away from her life.
 
====Seether: The Rage of Nawen====
{| align=right |

Nawen and anger are inextricably connected together. While she is overflowing with joy and happiness. Her mood can shift from that into almost rage like anger at the drop of a hat be it the mention of a name, seeing someone walk by, or even just hearing a voice. Is this cause of the old saying of redheads being 'either touched from below or above?" is unknown and possible just wild folklore. This is a well-documented fact with the Maidens of Dre'Ana and in their church records. Where in her time with them she proved to be her own worse enemy and sometimes led her and them to new heights. Anger is a powerful motivator and primal emotion. Rumors abound from poking sisters with daggers, slapping and spitting on paladins, to even gutting a wemic with a bottle she broke cause he wouldn't shut up. After leaving the Maidens and the Church. It is said not only by her but others aware of the situation that her anger was so intense that she was having fights with Dre'Ana herself. Revealed later on that the two were causing great injury to each other.
 
After leaving them and Elysia, she went into Spiritlands and [[Guild:_Le'Nofaythen'T'Nanshi|Le'Nofathen'T'Nanshi]] famed 6th division. Where she earned promotions and medals for service and action. Times were confusing and she was still angry about matters in Elysia. That it was bleeding into her new life and she retired from the 6th in abrupt fashion without looking back. From there she sought solace in the Gardens where she felt safest of all the places she has ever been. There within the gardens and their fey, she remained for decades; finding herself, putting her rage to sleep deep within her. Cause it can never fully go away and controlling such an emotion takes a lot of self-control.
 
As she stepped out of the gardens. She would rediscover the self-control that was taught to her by certain monks. Since stepping out she has had only a few minor flare-ups of anger. She was fully aware of what sleeps within her and knows she will awake.  Between her triple awakening, the stress has started to build up and she is always trying to stay happy and away from ones that seemingly wish to wake that side of her. Cause she will lash out at those closest and like a Fey; won't stop till history notes it as a historical event.
 
==Spiritlands==
 
====She Finds a War====
 
She would be a part of [[Guild:_Le'Nofaythen'T'Nanshi|Le'Nofathen'T'Nanshi]] famed 6th division of elite warriors. Where she was quick to earn rank and promotion in her brief time with them. Reached the rank of Woodsmistress within them and took part in many missions and patrols. With the loss of Dre’Ana in her life, Nawen spun downward and would have fallen completely apart if not for Deamona; her dearest friend and housemate. Daemona who knows Nawen better than Nawen knows herself it seems. Helped her through the troubles simply by listening to her and letting Nawen find her own way. In that time her path took her to Dru’El where she was accepted into his heart as one of his own. An acceptance that Dre'Ana herself approved of and the two not only made peace with each other but Dru'El allows Dre'Ana to look after her daughter. To which Daemona taught Nawen a new mart to focus herself.

<br>''I thank the Father each day for what I am''
</center></div>
 
Then darkness as all was but gone and starting to look bright for Nawen. The last of the dear friends made a choice. Deamona had gone to aid her granddaughter on a far-off plane of islands. To defend those people from the evil she had to accept life on the islands with no return to her homelands. By which she agreed to become bonded to a world stone and become the champion of the people that live there. Daemona was the last of the dear friends and the Order of Purse; which consisted of Aria, Trina, Nawen, and Dae. Now Nawen is left with only her memories of them which she remembers fondly.  Though as time passed she made new friends that are just as dear to her as her others were.
 
====The Garden of Soltuide====
{| align=right |

With the loss of Deamona what there was of Nawen was gone. She withdrew to her beloved gardens. A place she had always felt at peace. In time DragonGirls would move [[Loash_Leheven|Loash]] there to allow Nawen more comfort and time to regain herself. While there she would with the help of the DragonGirls; Aiko and Sonja, develop FeyStyle; a method of producing enchanting weapons. She mostly stayed within the confines of the gardens but now and then she was spotted passing through a village or attending trade fairs; where Loash would host lavish games of chance to take away a custom-designed weapon from their famed house. Mostly she spent her time in quiet reflection and in the embrace of her longtime lover Mista.
 
====Retrun====
Feeling more and more herself, Nawen would slowly venture out into the wider world for short trips by herself as she was seeing if the world had really changed or did she see it for what it was. Quickly, she would notice that she had seen the world for what it was but this time she was better suited to venture into it. She found herself being dragged off [[Hel'Byssia]] and into matters that her knowledge of herbs and healing reagents were needed in [[Nor'Seere]]. Somewhat overwhelmed but went on as her heart told to the path was clear. She would rekindle old friendships and make new ones along the way. As she helps here and there, she becomes more in touch with the world and her helping ways. One day, Sonja passed into the next life. Sadness befell Nawen; through she had lost friends before. This would hurt more than all of them combined. Her friends came and gave her space, listened to her, and helped her heal.
 
The ForestGirls would form and sisters became more and special to her. She spent her free time sitting outside the Leaping Stag; chatting up any and everyone as she sipped from a bottle without a care in the world.
 
==Gardens==
 
====Family Traditions====
{| align=left |

|}<br>
From the first day she met Xandor and his speaking of the 'family's art', she was drawn to it but in her mind; she served Dre'Ana and She needed warriors. So even though Xandor taught her the ways of telling stories, dancing, lute, and poems. She wasn't all that inspiring or enthralling audiences. Even though he would drag her sometimes kicking and screaming to [[PCs:Raen|Miss Raen]]'s MMM gathering to perform alongside him. In time she finds a found love for the violin mostly cause she found it easier than the lute mostly due to her small hands and with the violin she had two teachers; Xandor and Arena. Arena was also teaching her the harp too.
 
Over the decades she practiced and practiced writing poems and playing the few instruments she owned after Xandor went missing and Arena went traveling. It was one of the hidden pastimes that gave her great joy. Brought her a connection to her family that she never experienced and would bring the memories rushing back. This would be her connection to her past and family for the longest time. A hidden pastime that made her happy. Till while in the Gardens as she sought to calm her spirit and heal her soul. She made a choice that would change everything. She took up the family calling itself. She didn't need to be a warrior as her life was her own now.
 
As she came out of the Gardens and into the Spiritlands. She was invited to a party in Silverfalls at the Moontree. They're listening to the music; she started dancing amongst the crowd and they parted for all to see the little redhead dancing her heart out. Which gave Nawen the confidence to sign up for [[PCs:Frannie_Mouze|Frannie Mouze's]] Musical Madness at Mikona's Finest. Where she performed a poem while dancing as a piece of performance art to a great amount of applause and tips. Which would also introduce her to [[PCs:Frannie_Mouze|Frannie]] and led to the formation of [[FRAwen_Productions|FRAwen]]. As in ''(FRA)''nnie and Na''(wen)'' plotting and planning musical and artistic moments for all to enjoy.
 
====The Awakening of Blood====

'''Memberships:'''

Unbeknownst to her while it gave her voice a different sound. It also took from her and awoke her blood to the [[Mortal Magic|vortex]].

== Background ==
The third was her [[Fey]] blood due to the combination of her song in her heart, her blood coursing with the vortex, and love of her songs; which awoke a long-hidden secret of fey heritage. That she is still trying to completely understand but is getting an understanding that in her life, nothing was as she was told it was.
Nawen is the child of Caellian Amakiir and Nawen a Moon Elf of questionable history and honor. She was born at the family village that bordered the forest along Brekon and Dubunat. Some years into her early life that she was taken away one night by her Grandfather Ariqueael during a great attack on the village by Orcs; she was to young to understand the events and still today has dreams of these events.  She only learned of this upon meeting Xandor Amakiir, her uncle and keeper of the Amakiir lore; in Elysia sometime later in her life.


===The Early Years===
Nawen grew up in Le’Or as the pale skinned, red headed child of Elarovan and Sheae Ryairayth; an elderly and childless couple that the only thing they shared were pointy ears.  There she grew up in the safety of the Spiritland under their ever watchful eyes and strict rules. Over the decades as she grew into a young lady Ariqueael would visit her, never revealing that he was her Grandfather.  One day when he was expected to arrive, a young Nawen sat outside the house waiting.  She waited for days and then weeks; spending all her free time waiting and searching for the sight of the old man that took such great interest into her life. One rainy day a young man came to the house and spoke to Elarovan for some great time.  As he left he gave Elarovan a small pack and a staff then bid him farewell.  Nawen was able to start putting things together when she heard that Ariqueael would never be visiting again.


Shortly after the lost of Ariqueael, Elarovan and Sheae started to speak of marriage for young Nawen. Always talking about the available men about the Spiritland and how will she married one of them.  This did not sit well with young Nawen as she had dreams of seeing the world outside of Le’Or. Inside the family home talk of events like the war with M’chek was not allowed.  She was naïve and sheltered from real life.  So, one night sneaking out the door hardly a thing with her, she said her goodbyes to those she knew as her parents and closed the door and walked into her new life.
<div style="font-family: Garamond; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: +1px;">
''A newan is a fey bloodline. Descended from the Autumn Oaks, old, tough, and near unbreakable. The Protectors of Acorns they that watch. The Winters Bravery and the Springs Deceit. The newans hide, they can be anything from a Springs storm will, to a family's rosebush, and herb garden. A newan could be the pines you planted 100 years ago, so your ancestors have wood from their heaths and keeps but usually, a newan is a flower. just one, set amongst many A sleeping single rose. Is a tangle of chaos.''


===The Formative Years===
Upon slipping out the door and making her way out of Le’Or and to the forest floor, she was shocked at the vastness of the world. After thinking she knew what she was going to do and started walking along the path. Nawen was greeted by a lady with a giant sword and sung with a soft voice, who started asking all sorts of questions of Nawen and being very naïve thought she was being robbed.  So, Nawen ran south following the well worn path and the lady chased her for some distance yelling stop. Finally, Nawen noticed the trees were no longer around her and the grass was no longer green. There were bodies discarded about the ground and the air reeked of death.  Nawen had fond the war and was right in the middle of it.  She wondered south to afraid of the lady with the giant sword to travel north, she found a path and followed it.  She slowly mad her way to the city of Mikona.


===The Mikona Years===
''Queen Bane is the only one that knows where the blood flows, and she often takes a personal hand in bloodlines and creates newans as is needed, the line never disappearing completely until now, when Helbyssia fell. There was only one left standing; the Last Rose... Ammika'newan.''
Nawen led a unusual life there.
</div>


===The Rebirth===
After a series of events, Nawen went north to Elysia seeking to better herself and mend her wayward ways. She left Mikona with carrying a book about Dre’Ana and ticket for a boat. She meet with Sala Te'Dwith and that day become a Warrior Maiden and faithful lady of Dre’Ana. For many years she searched within herself for her true meaning and asking for a sign of what she should do in her life. Then she found it one day, the day Sister Mowghina Del'Torhan placed a small sword in her hand and spoke of honor within the blade and honor in combat. Her path was clear and her mind made up. Nawen has seen inner peace in her life and for once a reason for her.  She took up training in private and with her sisters and their friends.  She became a friendly and somewhat comfortable towards people.  Letting people get to know her and letting Arena tease her often calling her the cute one when she introduce Nawen to people that Arena knew. She started to be known as prankster to her sisters and new found friends.


===The War Years===
But she was not created by Queen Bane nor knows how or why this was hidden away for so long either. As she looks for answers and questions most everything she knows about her family.
Nawen had come to Elysia and the war was knocking on the gate.  She was a Warrior Maiden Initiate and learning tactics and combat styles the hard way in real combat. She quickly started to make a name for herself as one that didn’t give up easy.  She trained hard to maintain the image of Warrior Maidens as warriors and pushed herself further and further down the path to understanding the sword and herself.


She fought in countless defensives of Elysia and impressed her sisters with the passions that she was promoted. In doing so, Nawen set a record for the fastest path for promotion in the history of Warrior Maidens. Even her promotion was rushed as word spread on an attack was expected since Shaahesk scouts were spotted and defeated.  With her promotion she became an official member of the EDF, till then she had been helping where she could.  She become one the Maiden scouts and worked along side the EDF and her sisters in defending Elysia. She took part in many battles including the first outright victory Elysian forces had at the Eridanian River. Shortly later the EAV was born and while they prepared and trained; Nawen stayed with the EDF as a scout till the EAV was ready for action. She joined them and found herself no longer a scout which left her confused. She took to the bow and was for awhile most pleased with her service and actions as an archer.  She arose in rank to 1st sergeant and was addressed by Lady Vanoviel along with four others that she served with.  Was the last time she ever heard a kind word from anyone of rank during the war. Soon the attacks picked up as Elysia had pushed back their foe and was starting to make them pay for attacking them. Nawen found herself attending planning meetings for future strikes but since there was already a Maiden there at them, she was dismissed from them. After a few missions were she privately questioned the commanders of the missions for their confusing and at times nonsense commands. She was now on the outside and left out of all playing meetings and command placements for asking honest questions about matters that mattered to her.  Her first huge disappointing moment with those to be respected and now to not be questioned and it wouldn’t be her last one.
====Familiar Ways====
{| align=left |
| https://i.imgur.com/cNIPntU.png
|}<br>
With the second awakening of her blood bringing the arcane into her life. She quietly entered the [[Guild:GreenOrder|Green Order of the Forest]] as a ranking magus. This was done because she had spent so much time with the Greens themselves. She had been unofficial (''yet official'') member for decades depending on who you ask. When she could only read scrolls and use wands; she was a common sight at training night upon the roof of the [[Le'Or_T'Nanshi|Le'Or]] Tower. She personally knows almost every Archmage of the Green Order since the creation of the Trust. Most days she can sit there and not only recite every Trust order ''"Three Words"'' but can explain the roles of each order and their hierarchy. She passed both her Pre/Post exams before even casting a true arcane spell and even attended an initiate lecture with Sr Mage [[PCs:Aria_Ashby|Aria Ashby]] of the [[Guild:WhiteOrder|White Order of the Light]]. Knowing that the Green Order accepted her as they knew her heart and she knew theirs. Cause she wasn't a normal 'initiate' looking for a home; given her history and the life she has already lived. Their tree tower was her home.


She did find herself in one last command moment, leading a group of Maidens on a scouting missing in Nanshi.  Sister Je had fallen days before and as they prayed for a victory and for Je; the unseelie forces come out of no where and attacked the small group of three during prayers and the Temple to Dre’Ana itself and burned it. Nawen would never lead again in the war, her actions and the lost of temple was used against her.  She was not allowed to join the forces in laying siege to the largest base nor was she including in the planning of anything that concerned the EAV. Her last action was in Dagroth Woods, where the remaining unseelie forces had launched a final attack.  The EAV responded and entered deep into the forest where they were outnumbered and surrounded.  Nawen just following the trails of unseelie bodies found a few EAV members near Dagroth Woods, they were shaken and unwilling to reenter the battle as they had nothing.  A quick scouting of the woods and she had linked up with Sister Terra. The two of them, helped the fallen and defended them as they regrouped to assist the main body.  Sometime later a small group of EAV met the larger group deeper in Dagroth Woods and helped to escort them out of the woods. Once out the woods, word came that all members of EAV should meet at once for a statement from General.  As the worn down force passed the Elf Gate a senior officer noted that the archer’s platform was vacant and ordered Nawen to string her bow and stand guard till replaced.  She did as order and missed the Fey thanking the EAV/EDF for their hard work and scarifies in defending Elysia.  Nawen was greeted to the sight of many members of both bodies below her post, showing off their newly earned gift from the Fey.  Upon asking a senior officer when she would get her gift, she was answered a cold stare and him walking away without a word.
Since taking up the robes and staff. She has created a project, written a book on the motion of casting incantations and is a student of Elementalism with a focus on Aeromancery. Recently, she named Senior Mage of [[Mikona]]/[[M'Chek]] for the Green Order of the Forest. Later, was placed within the High Mage Council, becoming one of the three voices for the Green Order.  


Nawen felt unappreciated for her own scarifies and insulted at not be treated like the rest.  She withdrew from public and from the war as Elysia was safe and now entering to support Nanshi in their battle.  Through not officially from the war effort, she still produced supplies for her sisters that sought combat.  Once she was even talked into suiting up and entering combat again. What she saw is something she doesn’t speak of and shortly latter officially resigned from the EAV to whispers of coward and traitor to the cause, even a Maiden called her a coward. As they prepared for Blandenberg.
While it is most true that she seeks the ''"Sublime Chord"'' and in what free time she has she theorizes about it. The concept of blending true bardic composition with arcane knowledge poses more questions than answers each time she considers it.


Shortly the Blandenberg battles would take place bringing an uneasy peace to lands.  A call came out to all members of EDF/EAV that fought and defended for Elysia to attend a ceremony publicly thanking them from their actions as sacrifices for the people of Elysia. Nawen learned from a senior ranking Sister that she was not to show as there were no thanks for a traitor like herself there. Through she later learned that many there left the war before her or fought in fewer battles than her; she held no grudge against them for they just answered the call that she was ordered not to. All that had happen was she lost faith in most people standing up for what is right.
==Drakehall==


===More Disappointment===
====Sage of Drakehall====
An already disillusioned Nawen, depressed from the war and left feeling empty awoke to a plague in Elysia. The war in her eyes was bad enough and now many suffered from an unknown illness. Nawen being a member of EDF was sent out to guard the city, to keep people from leaving the plague ridden city and to block people from entering it.  The EDF was caught off guard and many of its members were not in the city as the quarantine went into place. Needless to say attitudes were heated and more was expected of the few members within the city than should have been.  In the end, the plague was cured and not much said about it.
While Thaylis and Nawen figured each other out and what they were about. He invited her to become the Sage of [[Drakehall_Keep|Drakehall]] and advise him. She had just taken the rank of sage at the ATU and was flexing her knowledge of real-world history. Given her knowledge of battle and tactics; this made her a natural choice to advise at Drakehall and offer a counterpoint to Rickus of Toran.


Now free of all public duties, Nawen looked explore herself and the world around her.  While Arena was teaching her a lot about the world around and introducing to just about every one they came across. It was other sisters that opened Nawen’s eyes to a whole new world; the world of plane traveling to other distance lands and places. Throughout her travels she met many interesting people and saw many interesting things.  Shortly later a person she had met in passing appeared in Elysia and Nawen found herself again being questioned for loyalty and treason.  In the end Nawen did what she saw was right retired from the overly public service EDF with the rank of Lieutenant. More and more disillusioned and confused seek sought clarity in her travels to other lands away from the places she knew and the problems they brought her. As she was seeing less and less of her beloved sisters and mentors.  
They were together for the Quest to locate and secure the fabled ''"Horns"'' and were advising him during the attempts to locate and save ''"The Lost Ones"''. Since there she has taken a more political approach and helped him in advancing his ideas for northwestern M'Chek and keeping the alliance of the three together.


===Time in Mithro and a Fond Sisterhood===
Since joining as their sage. She has started building a library within the keep and has plans for a school in [[Westshore]].
Nawen sought herself and clarity not with her Sisters but away from them to their shock. She had been a constant sight them around Elysia since the day she showed up their and now she was gone.  She had with the help of two sisters found her way to Mithro Rest and rest was not what she find there.  She instead found duty and service but she also found understanding and the answers she needed about herself there.  She met the Crimson Amazons and the one that would become her dearest friend.


The Crimson Amazons were at the time a small group of female warriors like the Warrior Maidens but open to many faiths.  Being new to their land and seeing that they in many ways resembled her sisters back in Elysia; Nawen found instant friendship and in time become one of their number.  While she hid this from Maidens back home she saw something in the Amazons that she had to learn.  Upon finally telling her sisters and their anger with her for being a member of another group and some even questioned her faith.  See explained her reasons for such as she was searching for herself. The most important thing Nawen learned the Maidens couldn’t teach her, the Amazons taught her to be a better Warrior Maiden and to relay on her own judgments and instincts as their numbers were less and they trust in each other to do what is right and support their sisters.
====Stalker and Pixie====


The one she met and instantly became friends with was none other an Aria Ashby herself and Crimson Amazon sister at that. The two become almost inseparable and more like old friends the moment they met. Nawen due to her training and friendship with Aria quickly took on the duty of becoming her bodyguard as events Nawen still does not completely understand would put them both in danger. Needless to say, Nawen protected Aria and the two made many more trips to see their Amazon sisters and friends before the planar magic failed, preventing them from returning there.
Since before the war and fall of [[Elysia]]. Nawen had carried on a passionate affair with her partner Mista. Mista would help convinced Nawen to open the [[Paradise_Boutique|boutique]] in Elysia and was now in the Gardens with her lover. For years the couple carried on like they were the only two in the world. Given Mista's Fey blood she knew time was fleeting with a single soul. Even though Nawen at times had been sought after by many different names as a partner. She stayed loyal to her lover.
[[File:Kth7jssn.jpg|frame|right|alt=Thaylis and Nawen's wedding at Drakehall|Thaylis and Nawen's wedding at Drakehall]]
That is until the Half-Nymph Couriers showed up with a package for Nawen. Taken a little back by such; she signed three times on the paper and accepted the package. For years and years, she had sought Cherry River Lambic but was unable to find it in any real quantity. Sitting within the box was several bottles of the unbelievable brew but no card as to who it was from. Some like Finn, openly stated it was from Thaylis by the fancy bottle. Others agreed with him.  Soon, little wooden carved animals would show up on her windowsill or on her table in Zvid. Friends of the two seem to arrange change meetings and encounters and soon she started warming up to the idea that there was more to love than safety with her longtime friend.


===The Dark Days and Rebuilding of the Sisterhood===
After a very long and heartfelt talk with Mista. In which Mista encourages her friend to explore her heart as well as life itself and pursue the one stalking her. At the Pirate theme Trade Fair, she sang a song about wanting his kisses between her thighs but metaphor the song into a Mermaid song about drowning him. This would to him to create the little wooden animals to get her attention and the attention he got. She created a butterfly that has varied meanings in the Gardens and gave it to him. Very quickly the two became inseparable and worked together like dream handling matters from the Lost Ones to the Horns. Even though others were not after her heart and attention too. The gift flirting was a constant between them; Nawen with her songs about what them and how he made her feel and him with little trinkets and craved animals.  
Upon her return to Elysia and the loss of her travels, she rediscovered herself. Feeling more confident about herself and her purpose Nawen become more vocal and more determined in her life both publicly and privately. However, the war while over was finished taking its toil on her beloved Maidens.  Many of the notable sisters were a rare sight in Elysia and when sisters would gather in large numbers tempers would flare quickly in those once known for their even disposition. Over a brief period time those that guided and led the Maidens would walk their own paths without their sisters. At one point the famous meeting of Maidens where tempers would flare became two lone Maidens sitting somewhat apart staring at each other in disbelief at what would be known later to the Maidens as the dark days.  Never more than handful of sisters committed to the effort, instead of the numbers once known. The Maidens were without not only a leader but their leadership core. The few that involved themselves found the time to be most hard on the soul.


Was during this time that Nawen wanted to take a larger role within the Maidens and through an election that the total vote could be counted on one hand she become the Lore Mistress of the Maidens and the appearance of a leadership started to breakthrough the dark clouds surrounding herself and the Maidens. In time some of the missing Maidens would return home and pick up their duties and some took on duties they had never done before but this was just a break in the dark days as they loomed overhead.
Soon she was staying at his house and him at her and the two quickly became known as a couple. The songs stayed constant but the gift flirting started to take on a whole new level. First, a puppy that would be named Harmony and then a bear cub that would be named Osha. She would have a workshop designed for him to end his long walks to work on leather.


Soon the Maidens would have an officer core and all would be grand again within the order. Least that was her prayers as shortly Nawen would have to walk a path that only she could alone. As matters within the order all seemed somewhat well, Nawen took her leave of Lore duties and while not leaving the Maidens just her duties. She was finally ready to uphold a promise she made to her mentor, herself and Dre’Ana; to complete her training and follow her path. Nawen was to become one with her blade and to fight as natural as the wind blows. She departed Elysia and sought out the monks across the wilderness. She studied under many learning to loose herself to find herself and many other thoughts that confuse most that don’t follow such a path. During this time most of the Maidens have no clue where she was or what she was truly doing. A few did and they wrote her often, keeping her up to date and encouraging her on her path. She had made a promise not to return till she completed what she had started so many years ago. This promise she broke when word reached her in quiet isolation of Visimontium. Events occurred both publicly and privately within the Maidens and many were urging Nawen to hasten her training and her return. She did not delay her return to Elysia but she did leave unfinished her task for the moment as with her return her election to Arch Mistress was to be called for. Her training would wait for the time as those that stood by her now need her to stand by them.
Then the moment of all awkward moments. FRAwen'ing of Drakehall and his not so well versed Nawen's native tongue. While she danced and sang her song [[Summer_in_Threes|'Summer in Threes']] and with the line '''nanshileeshan'oohevith v'nanshileesh'oohevith hod yoom''' the path became known as he slowly nodded with a little grin that told everyone he had no idea what she had sung. Those that understood the [[Nanshilae]] words even started asking him when he was going to marry her.  
{| align=right |

Nawen was elected as their leader and made several statements thanking all and urging for change within the Maidens.  Then she quietly gave power to her second in command and left to finish her training and find her true path. For she could not be an effective leader till she saw it through as this dream had stared back at her for what seemed a lifetime. Upon her return to her sisters and her place as Arch Mistress, she found her duties all consuming.  Nawen and her sisters had their work cut out for them in more ways than one. She turned her attention inward to the Maidens and her sisters and with their help brought new meaning to the word sister and the Sisterhood was formed. It was not an overnight change but one that took over a decade with it’s up and downs both privately and publicly; all taken a toil on her in someway. However, she knows it was worth it and it help to define who she really is inside.
Soon while dancing at House Beign. He faked slipping and hurting himself and asked her to be his. Frannie threw an engagement party at Grace's hall. In time they would be wed at Drakehall; which all their wedding finery had been stolen by a scheming son of a trusted merchant and trader but the wedding was saved by House Skybreaker speaking with the [[NPC:Queen Adathi|Queen Adathi]] and almost emptying Nor'Seere of finery and loaning such to Drakehall to save the wedding. In her kindness, the young man that stole the wedding finery was punished not with pain or in a cell but sentenced to learning a work ethic; to this day Charlie is still a valued member of Drakehall's staff. A more public wedding was held later the following day at the Gardens surrounded by friends and wellwishers.  


===Looking to the Future===
These days, she is his equal as he has always treated her. Still his advisor and helps to make sure he has all the information he needs to see things through. Mista still works for Nawen and the two are known to exchange 'ideas' and 'thoughts' on certain topics. Mista herself is rumored to have taken a satyr as a lover and is very shameless about their love; almost as shameless as Nawen about Thaylis.<be>
Nawen has now been graced with more titles than she can remember without writing them down and has now served longer as the Sisterhood’s head than all others but one sister. She faced her own personal demons and problems and strives to handle herself in the way Dre’Ana wishes her to. She now looks after the Sisterhood above all and made the sacrifices in her life that were needed in her eyes. Nawen has grown greatly with leadership and through she has stumbled she always gets back up and pushes forward, just as she was taught back in her first days with the Maidens.


== The Family Amakiir ==
====Life at Drakehall====


Nawen Meet her Uncle Xandor in Elysia and learned about the attacked upon the family village that took the lives of all that were there.  Nawen and Xandor looked after each other and in time news reached them that Nawen was not the only one to survive the attack. Xandor’s children had escaped with their mother who fell days later to her injuries as did a few other. Although not am Amakiir, [[PCs:Elong_Singalong | Elong]] was the cherished friend of Xandor who spoke of her in words of being family; making her family to Nawen in her own eyes.
In the years since her wedding. She has added Drakehall in helping free the Lost Ones from their curse, numerous battles at sea, sought out the fabled Warhorns of Jechio, the Return of Lady Valenoviel to Elysia, Defeated the Sons the Life, and ended the BlinkieQueen; just to name a few.

Early Life

TZzGZGw.png

Known as Ammika'newan and one of Bane's earliest supports. She has led a colorful life. When the BlinkieQueen (as she puts it) first came upon them. She was known as General Ammika of the Thousand and One Fey Army; Bane's army that battled against the forces of Hope's calling. The Thousand and One Fey Army were 'lost' to protecting the prison of the BlinkieQueen. Upon the death of the BlinkieQueen, the Thousand and One Fey Army have returned to the gardens. In their absence, came the newans. The elite of Bane's forces and a family within Dutches of Winter's Court. The newans would fall at Hel'byssia, where they held the line, but one lived. The Last Rose, Ammika herself. Who would, a few weeks later, be sent back to Hel'byssia to put a stop to Queen Hope's Elite forces 'The Sons of Life" from breaking the wards and freeing the already touched by the madness of the Blue Star. The Last Rose vs hundreds of elite trained summer Fey and led by former General Winter at that. It is said by a few sources amount the fey that she warned them once to withdraw and they didn't. The next moment is generally agreed that she did something and then they were exploding, turning to ash, melting, or simply gone. All of them but three brothers that formed the Leadership of the Suns of Life. Letting them escape, started the longest blood feud in history. As a result, the battles between Ammika and the Suns of Life had gotten out of control. In an attempt to save the Last Rose, Bane took extreme steps in warding off (some say) or removing (as others say) Ammika's memories of herself and her life. From there, created her two sisters to guard and be with her. Then plunged them into an unknown future and unaware of where they would appear.

YF1BiUk.png

The few memories she now has a result of fixing Time Rifts or other efforts:

  • She was very loved and music played a huge role in her early life.
  • Chaos use to watch after her when she was young and she liked scaring Chaos.
  • Nawen Amakiir is a play on Ammika'newan.
  • She is one of Bane's earliest supporters and most intense supporters.
  • She is Winter General Ammika of the Thousand and One Fey Army of Winter.
  • She led the Thousand and One Fey Army against Titania's BlinkieQueen.
  • She once jumped naked out of cake for Marble.
  • She fought alongside her sisters at Hel'byssia and later defended the wards against Queen Hope's Elite Forces, The Sons of Life.
  • Having a newan in your cause is huge for the Fey and kin.
  • She is the Last Rose. Meaning she is the last naturally born newan.

Beyond that it's all black, the pages of her memory are blank, or simply does not know anymore. This could explain why she always asks dragons and kin if they know her or says "The journey to the answers is just as important as the answers themselves."


Brekon/Dubunat/Deglos Border Forest


cCDC6bP.png

When she was taken forward in time and hidden from the Suns of Life. She was with the Amakiirs of the Copper Dragon branch, who had departed the Great War effort in Le'Or due to the treatment of dragons and had spent decades in hiding while the war went on. With peace, they traveled overland through Deglos and found the spot to their liking. Nawen is the child of Caellian Amakiir and Nawen woman questionable history and honor; she was the third of their four children. She was born at the family hamlet at the height of winter; that bordered the forest along Brekon, Dubunat, and Deglos. A harsh but lovely place to be. Among the highland forest with its extreme seasons and breathtaking landscape. The hamlet was home to the Amakiir family and some friends existed with uneasy peace with the orcs. Both farmed and traded between themselves but with a nearby dwarven outpost. Some twelve years into her young life, she out on a walk amongst the trees with her Grandfather Ariqueael as he taught her about nature and life. As they returned to the hamlet. To their horror, the Orcs were razing the hamlet. She was too young to help and the events still today have haunted her in dreams/nightmares. Ariqueael took her deeper into the forest and to the mountains of Deglos avoiding contact with others as they traveled. Finally when they reached Le’Or where he placed her in the care of the Ael’nyon family to raise as they had no children on their own. A family that she was told by Arigueal they were 'Trusted' by Amakiirs for ages and ages; that they look after her and protect her. To this day, she isn't how much of this is true and happened or implanted. Yet, she has a strong feeling some of it is true and someone very close to her betrayed her by revealing her secret and caused the death of those watching and protecting her.

The Family

Nawen Meet her Uncle Xandor in Elysia and learned about the attack upon the family village that took the lives of all that were there. Nawen and Xandor looked after each other and in time news reached them that Nawen was not the only one to survive the attack. Xandor’s children had escaped with their mother who fell days later to her injuries as did a few others. Although not an Amakiir, Elong was the cherished friend of Xandor who spoke of her in words of being family; making her family to Nawen in her own eyes. This is just the family that broke away from T'Nanshi after the Great War and relocated to the Brekon/ Dubunat Border Forest. Amakiir's of different family lines like the 'Silver and Bronze Dragons' stayed within T'Nanshi and Elysia and can still be found today through the bond isn't as tight as it once was due to politics mostly.


Family Amakiir that survived the attack on their village and found safety in the south or born in the south afterward

  • Xadnor Amakiir - Ventured into Brekon/Believed Deceased
  • Heather Amakiir, Daughter of Xandor – Deceased through Unknown Causes
  • Lu’win Amakkir, Son of Xandor – Whereabouts Unknown/Believed Deceased
  • Tuilal Amakiir, Son of Xandor – Whereabouts Unknown/Believed Deceased
  • Nawien Amakiir, Mother of Tamia – Deceased from Injuries sustained in a Sereg Attack within M'Chek
  • Tamia Amakiir, Daughter of Naweien; Married to Willam Dane and living in Trenium
  • Isaac Dane - Son of Tamia and Willam Dane
  • Nawen Amakiir - Raised in Le'Or and married to Thaylis Beign
Le'Or
Q2wrDdp.png

Nawen grew up in Le’Or as the pale-skinned, red-headed child of Elarovan and Sheae Ael’nyon; an elderly and childless couple that the only thing they shared was pointy ears but they loved her as their own. There she grew up in the safety of the Spiritland under their ever-watchful eyes and strict rules. Over the decades as she grew into a young lady between Ariqueael visits. One day when he was expected to arrive, a young Nawen sat outside the house waiting. She waited for days and then weeks; spending all her free time waiting and searching for the sight of the old man that took such great interest in her life. One rainy day a young man came to the house and spoke to Elarovan for some great time. As he left he gave Elarovan a small pack and a staff then bid him farewell. Nawen was able to start putting things together when she heard that Ariqueael would never be visiting again.

Shortly after the loss of Ariqueael, Elarovan and Sheae started to speak of marriage for young Nawen. Always talking about the available men about the Spiritland and how she will marry one of them. This did not sit well with young Nawen; who had dreams of seeing the world outside of Le’Or. Inside the family home, talk of events like the war with M’chek was not allowed as it pained the Elarovan and Shaea to even hear the words war. She was naïve and sheltered from real life. So, one night sneaking out the door with hardly a thing with her, she said her goodbyes to those she knew as her 'second' parents and closed the door while they slept. She walked into her new life. Upon slipping out of the district and making her way out of Le’Or and to the forest floor, she was shocked at the vastness of the world. After thinking she knew what she was going to do and started walking along the path. There she was greeted by a lady with a giant sword and sung in a soft voice; started asking all sorts of questions of Nawen and being very naïve thought she was being robbed. So, she ran south following the well-worn path and the lady chased her for some distance yelling stop with almost every step. Finally, Nawen noticed the trees were no longer around her and the grass was no longer green. There were bodies discarded about the ground and the air reeked of death. Nawen had found the war and was right in the middle of it. She wondered south to afraid of the lady with the giant sword to travel north back into the forest, she found a path and followed it. She slowly made her way to the city of Mikona.

Mikona

Education in Life

Her years in Mikona are something she has really spoken about. Though she isn’t ashamed of her life there some secrets should be guarded. Now and then she does speak of a one-eyed thief and flirty mysterious lady she met there over her time there. Some rumors place her as a burglar and others have her doing more unspeakable deeds in the dead of night. Generally, it is accepted that she did work at the notorious 'The Canvas Club'; where she served drinks, and is believed she also worked as a courtesan out of the Noble Flair Inn. Is believed she did very well for herself in that endeavor. It is said that when she did leave she left in such a hurry that she didn't even check out of the inn and fled the city.

Elysia

Friends Made

After a series of events in Mikona, Nawen went by boat to Ferrell and then to Elysia seeking to better herself and mend her wayward ways. She left Mikona, carrying a book about Dre'Ana and a ticket for a boat; that she found as she fled. For a few days, she spends her time sheltering from the rain and reading the book she found. She lived in the Temple for a while and even at Sorben's Fine Threads where the Sorben's and Deamona had taken to her company; not to mention supplied her with an entirely new wardrobe too. Started to teach her the art of the needle and fashion.

Dre'Ana and her Maidens

The more she rereads it the more she hears her calling in life. Soon she out looking for them and she finds them. She meets with Sala Te'Dwith and that day becomes a Warrior Maiden and faithful lady of Dre’Ana. For many years she searched within herself for her true meaning and asked for a sign of what she should do in her life. Then she found it one day, the day Sister Mowghina Del'Torhan placed a small sword in her hand and spoke of honor within the blade and honor in combat, in life, in action. Her path was clear and her mind made up. Through she wanted to hide in the shadows and ply her art in that fashion. She takes to light and performs art for all to see. Nawen found inner peace in her life and for once a reason for her. She took up training in private and with her sisters and their friends. She became friendly and somewhat comfortable with people. Letting people get to know her and let Arena tease her often calling her the cute one when she introduces Nawen to people that were known well enough and telling them they were sisters. She started to be known as a prankster to her sisters and newfound friends.

Second Fey War and the large war

Nawen had come to Elysia and the war was knocking on the gate. She was a Warrior Maiden Initiate and learned tactics and combat styles the hard way through real combat. She quickly started to make a name for herself as one that didn’t give up easily. She trained hard to maintain the image of Warrior Maidens as warriors and pushed herself further and further down the path to understanding the sword and herself. She fought in countless defensives of Elysia and impressed her sisters with the passion that she was promoted. In doing so, Nawen set a record for the fastest path for promotion in the history of Warrior Maidens. With her promotion, she became an official member of the EDF, till then she had been helping where she could. She would become one of the Maiden scouts and worked alongside the EDF and her sisters not only in defending Elysia but leading the way to strike back. She took part in many battles including the first outright victory Elysian forces had at the Eridanian River.

Shortly later the EAV was formed where she would train a few that would become famous for archery and tactics and while they prepared and trained; Nawen stayed with the EDF as a scout till the EAV was ready for action. She joined them and found herself no longer a scout which left her confused at losing her Drangonari squad that she had become attached to. She took to the bow and led the archers as there wasn't much of a need for her sword given all the other members. She arose in rank to 1st sergeant and was addressed by Lady Vanoviel along with four others that she served with at an ambush near the Balor Lord Prison where a combined EDF/EAV force held the high ground and broke the back of the Unseelie; Elysia lost no one in the battle and Unseelie lost everyone. Within a week the Lady Vanoviel would depart on her way to Le'Or to talk about Elysian independence and the war. As she and her elite Champions left the city. Nawen was on duty upon the archer's platform and shouted down her often heard 'Dre'Ana loves you Vanoviel' to her and she shouted back that there will be lots to talk about when she returns and she makes sure to have a drink with her. She was ambushed hours later east of the Fairy Gardens and was taken from us.

Was the last time she ever heard a kind word from anyone of rank during the war. Through she still fought on, she found herself becoming uncertain of who was really in charge after the death of Lady Vanoviel. After a rather tough defense of the city, she was placed on guard duty by a higher ranking officer as the rest of EDF/EAV were honored by the Fey for their actions. She still fought for the defense of Elyisa and served in Nanshi as the Elysian forces where she was sent off mostly on her own. In the end, completely disillusioned by her commanders and what she was doing she sought retirement. Retirement was granted and greeted with whispers of a coward by those that never fought in heavy combat or on unknown mission. The war ended and the people rejoiced. The City of Elysia was to thank those that served in a public ceremony and all that fought were sought to attend regardless of standing; except word came from the ranking officer that Nawen was not to attend due to her retirement.

Soon enough she is called to duty one day as she awoke to learn that people were ill and the leaders of Elysia had sealed the city. All uniformed EDF was to protect the borders and stop all travel. She guarded as requested during the exceedingly long time it took to find a cure for this plaque tempers flared in Elysia and within the EDF. Nawen found herself more than almost drawing her blade against fellow officers accusing her of not following orders even though other officers were stating she was at her post. If the politics of war lead to her disillusionment in the war, the politics of peace destroyed her to the core of how people plotted each other. She also worked alongside her uncle Xandor in obtaining and handing out scrolls with the words written upon them that would lessen the plague. By the time the plague was a cured and the guards were withdrawn to allow travel again. Nawen slowly noticed that there was hardly a single Warrior Maiden about Elysia. She too would depart for newer lands on the plane of Yassgard where she meets the Crimson Amazons that would shape her views and yet remind her of those that taught her.

During her time traveling between Elysia to help out when needed and attend Warrior Maiden matters which were quickly decreasing and spending her free time in Mithro Rest on the plane of Yasgard. She meets the one person that would capture her attention and her undying friendship; Aria Ashby. Nawen was her bodyguard to protect her from assassins sent by the Lord of Night to kill Aria and steal something from her. Nawen fulfilled those duties and during those times the two became instant friends and inseparable. However, the magic that allowed us to walk the planes and travel to other worlds was starting to weaken. With the bonds losing their strength two more trips were made to see their friends and Crimson Amazons whom both were members of. On the last trip, they said their fond goodbyes and stepped into the weakened magic bonds before they failed.

Leadership: Dreams and Nightmares

7cgp60E.png

With her return to Elysia and the refreshed attitude; she became more confident and more vocal in her desires. As she looked around herself she noticed that many of the notable sisters were not to be seen. Gone were the large gatherings and meetings with talk of planning for the future and how to help those around us. Instead, meetings were turning into screaming matches and ego displays. Though she won’t claim to be innocent as she showed her one in those meetings; including a meeting that detailed the Arch Mistress failed assassination of someone that needed to die but was forbidden by the powers of Elysia to seek her death. She walked away and didn’t return for some time. She left a letter resigning her position in the Maiden Lore Keeper and packed up the supplies she need then departed on her own path to finish her training with the blade. It had been decades since she took up the art of swordplay and there was still more to do before feeling comfortable with the training. She did stay in contact with one sister that watched over the Warrior Maidens and kept abreast of her whereabouts. Nawen received a letter stating the Arch Mistress had left the order and to return at once as she was needed. She did return and was elected by those present to become the seventh Arch Mistress the Warrior Maidens would have in Elysia.

In her time as the seventh Arch Mistress, she oversaw a rebirth within the Warrior Maidens. Those that severed alongside her were the best she had seen and it showed. Nawen was graced with more titles than anyone can remember and the order gained in honor and in strength. The deeds they performed cover an immense time from aiding Fanos to rescuing sailors to even taking on a wayward boyer and even aiding a far-off land across the planes just to name a few. She also drove deeper into the lore of Maidens and learned more about those that came before her and their actions. She wrote reports on them as long as books themselves which became a book itself detailing the history of the Maidens and their members from the first Warrior Maidens all the way to the newest ranking Warrior Maiden.

Through moments partly of her own making and of those around her that hide their ideals. She retired after a rather eye-opening and nasty period of time in which she saw betrayal, lies, and outright dishonor from many she thought a friend. She petitioned to become Phoenix Valkyrie and was awarded such becoming the eighth one to achieve such a rank. It was during this time that Nawen was assassinated and an old rare sword once carried by Melonius Mennallin and stolen from her by Demaon in Elysia. Through proof was showing that a former Maiden was involved in plotting her assassination the leaders of Elysia never took action nor did the church of Dre’Ana. This would affect Nawen for long time as to her views of both.

Jechran Mission

BjMLyVV.png


As of Phoenix Valkyrie, it is expected that one takes on special duty to perform. Nawen had seen this when she saw four others promoted into the honored rank. Given that she saw the refugees from Jechran and heard the stories that troubled her she had spoken with the High Priest of Elysia and accepted from her a special duty. That duty was to travel to Jechran and investigate the taint that overtook the land and was spreading. She agreed and with just a note left behind stating not to follow she departed for Jechran. Upon reaching Jechran the sight was unthinking as everything was dead; the land, the animals, and the people that couldn’t escape. Images of which still haunt her to this very day in her dreams but she did reach her target; an abbey between the border of Gados and the Jechran capital. There she found books of Maiden lore and most importantly the remains of a messenger carrying letters and orders. One of which was even addressed to herself at her former rank of Archmistress telling her to get ready for a mass exodus from Jechran and to stay away from the land itself. Some described the madness of the taint and others the death. As she departed the death she took water, soil, and bone samples along the way for others to study. As she was hurrying to escape before nightfall and to avoid spending the night within the taint; the sure-footed and nimble Nawen tripped over a dead root and shattered her right leg. She crawled her way to an old farmhouse where she attempted to brace herself and rest. There she saw a sight that meant everything to her. In so much pain and memory of the events blur what happened isn’t for certain but what is known is that she was found above the town of Visimontium in the high mountain passes by Vanar. He stated she was clutching a dragon bone as a crutch under one arm and wildly swinging one of her swords in the other hand as she screamed and yelled blindly moving about. He was able to get her to drop her sword and she collapsed a moment later. The Maidens were sent for and a trusted sister came to escort Nawen back to Elysia. Where the healers ordered bed rest for her so her leg would heal; which lasted four years with another six years learning to walk again without her dragon bone crutch. One day she may even publish the tale of what she saw and learned on that journey.

Aftermath

n4WrVXq.png

As she healed and recovered she accepted a role from the newly elected eighth Arch Mistress to advise her and the order. She accepted it and the idea of bringing all the Jechran Refugees came to mind. With the aid, of the White, Ivory, and Green orders a huge portal was enchanted and women came to Elysia to be with the rest of their faith. The portal would be Nawen’s last task she helped with or saw after as a Warrior Maiden. Shortly after the portal tempers flared after some Maidens went against standing orders and Nawen took that to heart by pointing it out. With that, she withdrew to her home in Elysia to figure out her life and her next steps. Time would pass and she would be summoned again to Maiden Keep. Now serving under the Ninth Arch Mistress and fulfilling the same role as before she retired from the order completely. The last words she heard as she departed were “Fuck You, Nawen!” That sealed her thoughts of the Warrior Maidens as a whole for the most part outside of a few dear friends.

Nawen walked right out of the Maiden Keep and into T'Nanshi where she enlisted in the famed 6th Le’Nofaythen’T’Nanshi as a recruit to fight another war. However, she wasn't through with Dre’Ana yet. When not on patrol along the northern reaches she spent her time in her private shrine to Dre’Ana. Where she pleads for an answer for days on end without acknowledgment from her beloved Dre’Ana about why things are as they are. Finally in a true fit of rage Nawen challenged her to answer her questions and explain why certain things happened the way they had or she would walk away from her lady. Dre’Ana never answered and very next day lifted her love from Nawen in a display she won’t forget. It was later explained by a few that serve everlasting to another god. That Nawen had hurt Dre’Ana deeply with her rage and passion on this certain topic. In the same fashion, Dre’Ana lashed out at Nawen hurting her deeply. Some have said they fought each other and stumbled away. Only to regain their strength and start it up again. The goddess and one of her most passionate followers; each stopped before something unthinkable happened as Dre'Ana walked away from her life.

Seether: The Rage of Nawen

XdnKbaI.png

Nawen and anger are inextricably connected together. While she is overflowing with joy and happiness. Her mood can shift from that into almost rage like anger at the drop of a hat be it the mention of a name, seeing someone walk by, or even just hearing a voice. Is this cause of the old saying of redheads being 'either touched from below or above?" is unknown and possible just wild folklore. This is a well-documented fact with the Maidens of Dre'Ana and in their church records. Where in her time with them she proved to be her own worse enemy and sometimes led her and them to new heights. Anger is a powerful motivator and primal emotion. Rumors abound from poking sisters with daggers, slapping and spitting on paladins, to even gutting a wemic with a bottle she broke cause he wouldn't shut up. After leaving the Maidens and the Church. It is said not only by her but others aware of the situation that her anger was so intense that she was having fights with Dre'Ana herself. Revealed later on that the two were causing great injury to each other.

After leaving them and Elysia, she went into Spiritlands and Le'Nofathen'T'Nanshi famed 6th division. Where she earned promotions and medals for service and action. Times were confusing and she was still angry about matters in Elysia. That it was bleeding into her new life and she retired from the 6th in abrupt fashion without looking back. From there she sought solace in the Gardens where she felt safest of all the places she has ever been. There within the gardens and their fey, she remained for decades; finding herself, putting her rage to sleep deep within her. Cause it can never fully go away and controlling such an emotion takes a lot of self-control.

As she stepped out of the gardens. She would rediscover the self-control that was taught to her by certain monks. Since stepping out she has had only a few minor flare-ups of anger. She was fully aware of what sleeps within her and knows she will awake. Between her triple awakening, the stress has started to build up and she is always trying to stay happy and away from ones that seemingly wish to wake that side of her. Cause she will lash out at those closest and like a Fey; won't stop till history notes it as a historical event.

Spiritlands

She Finds a War

She would be a part of Le'Nofathen'T'Nanshi famed 6th division of elite warriors. Where she was quick to earn rank and promotion in her brief time with them. Reached the rank of Woodsmistress within them and took part in many missions and patrols. With the loss of Dre’Ana in her life, Nawen spun downward and would have fallen completely apart if not for Deamona; her dearest friend and housemate. Daemona who knows Nawen better than Nawen knows herself it seems. Helped her through the troubles simply by listening to her and letting Nawen find her own way. In that time her path took her to Dru’El where she was accepted into his heart as one of his own. An acceptance that Dre'Ana herself approved of and the two not only made peace with each other but Dru'El allows Dre'Ana to look after her daughter. To which Daemona taught Nawen a new mart to focus herself.

GIs2Czx.png


I am the willow and not the oak
I bend and sway in the storm of battle
I do not stand unmoving to resist the blow
Feel the stinging whip of my branches
You will not feel the club of a fallen limb
I am graceful and fluid like the softly flowing stream
I am not the roaring river that rushes past without sight
All things in life for me are a dance
I thank the Father each day for what I am

Then darkness as all was but gone and starting to look bright for Nawen. The last of the dear friends made a choice. Deamona had gone to aid her granddaughter on a far-off plane of islands. To defend those people from the evil she had to accept life on the islands with no return to her homelands. By which she agreed to become bonded to a world stone and become the champion of the people that live there. Daemona was the last of the dear friends and the Order of Purse; which consisted of Aria, Trina, Nawen, and Dae. Now Nawen is left with only her memories of them which she remembers fondly. Though as time passed she made new friends that are just as dear to her as her others were.

The Garden of Soltuide

qLCzids.png

With the loss of Deamona what there was of Nawen was gone. She withdrew to her beloved gardens. A place she had always felt at peace. In time DragonGirls would move Loash there to allow Nawen more comfort and time to regain herself. While there she would with the help of the DragonGirls; Aiko and Sonja, develop FeyStyle; a method of producing enchanting weapons. She mostly stayed within the confines of the gardens but now and then she was spotted passing through a village or attending trade fairs; where Loash would host lavish games of chance to take away a custom-designed weapon from their famed house. Mostly she spent her time in quiet reflection and in the embrace of her longtime lover Mista.

Retrun

Feeling more and more herself, Nawen would slowly venture out into the wider world for short trips by herself as she was seeing if the world had really changed or did she see it for what it was. Quickly, she would notice that she had seen the world for what it was but this time she was better suited to venture into it. She found herself being dragged off Hel'Byssia and into matters that her knowledge of herbs and healing reagents were needed in Nor'Seere. Somewhat overwhelmed but went on as her heart told to the path was clear. She would rekindle old friendships and make new ones along the way. As she helps here and there, she becomes more in touch with the world and her helping ways. One day, Sonja passed into the next life. Sadness befell Nawen; through she had lost friends before. This would hurt more than all of them combined. Her friends came and gave her space, listened to her, and helped her heal.

The ForestGirls would form and sisters became more and special to her. She spent her free time sitting outside the Leaping Stag; chatting up any and everyone as she sipped from a bottle without a care in the world.

Gardens

Family Traditions

lvpadDa.png


From the first day she met Xandor and his speaking of the 'family's art', she was drawn to it but in her mind; she served Dre'Ana and She needed warriors. So even though Xandor taught her the ways of telling stories, dancing, lute, and poems. She wasn't all that inspiring or enthralling audiences. Even though he would drag her sometimes kicking and screaming to Miss Raen's MMM gathering to perform alongside him. In time she finds a found love for the violin mostly cause she found it easier than the lute mostly due to her small hands and with the violin she had two teachers; Xandor and Arena. Arena was also teaching her the harp too.

Over the decades she practiced and practiced writing poems and playing the few instruments she owned after Xandor went missing and Arena went traveling. It was one of the hidden pastimes that gave her great joy. Brought her a connection to her family that she never experienced and would bring the memories rushing back. This would be her connection to her past and family for the longest time. A hidden pastime that made her happy. Till while in the Gardens as she sought to calm her spirit and heal her soul. She made a choice that would change everything. She took up the family calling itself. She didn't need to be a warrior as her life was her own now.

As she came out of the Gardens and into the Spiritlands. She was invited to a party in Silverfalls at the Moontree. They're listening to the music; she started dancing amongst the crowd and they parted for all to see the little redhead dancing her heart out. Which gave Nawen the confidence to sign up for Frannie Mouze's Musical Madness at Mikona's Finest. Where she performed a poem while dancing as a piece of performance art to a great amount of applause and tips. Which would also introduce her to Frannie and led to the formation of FRAwen. As in (FRA)nnie and Na(wen) plotting and planning musical and artistic moments for all to enjoy.

The Awakening of Blood

in 3's It's a FeyThing

The first awakening was with singing and music, so came song into her heart and the first awakening of her blood. The awakening also affected her physical appearance which appeared at the Fairy Faire in Ferrell. For a while, all seemed perfect till the Wastelands.

The second awakening was during a ritual in Nor'Seere where Nawen used a relic of Harpinger. That allowed her voice to sound as another person's voice. Unbeknownst to her while it gave her voice a different sound. It also took from her and awoke her blood to the vortex.

oQpR58x.png


The third was her Fey blood due to the combination of her song in her heart, her blood coursing with the vortex, and love of her songs; which awoke a long-hidden secret of fey heritage. That she is still trying to completely understand but is getting an understanding that in her life, nothing was as she was told it was.


A newan is a fey bloodline. Descended from the Autumn Oaks, old, tough, and near unbreakable. The Protectors of Acorns they that watch. The Winters Bravery and the Springs Deceit. The newans hide, they can be anything from a Springs storm will, to a family's rosebush, and herb garden. A newan could be the pines you planted 100 years ago, so your ancestors have wood from their heaths and keeps but usually, a newan is a flower. just one, set amongst many A sleeping single rose. Is a tangle of chaos.


Queen Bane is the only one that knows where the blood flows, and she often takes a personal hand in bloodlines and creates newans as is needed, the line never disappearing completely until now, when Helbyssia fell. There was only one left standing; the Last Rose... Ammika'newan.


But she was not created by Queen Bane nor knows how or why this was hidden away for so long either. As she looks for answers and questions most everything she knows about her family.

Familiar Ways

cNIPntU.png


With the second awakening of her blood bringing the arcane into her life. She quietly entered the Green Order of the Forest as a ranking magus. This was done because she had spent so much time with the Greens themselves. She had been unofficial (yet official) member for decades depending on who you ask. When she could only read scrolls and use wands; she was a common sight at training night upon the roof of the Le'Or Tower. She personally knows almost every Archmage of the Green Order since the creation of the Trust. Most days she can sit there and not only recite every Trust order "Three Words" but can explain the roles of each order and their hierarchy. She passed both her Pre/Post exams before even casting a true arcane spell and even attended an initiate lecture with Sr Mage Aria Ashby of the White Order of the Light. Knowing that the Green Order accepted her as they knew her heart and she knew theirs. Cause she wasn't a normal 'initiate' looking for a home; given her history and the life she has already lived. Their tree tower was her home.

Since taking up the robes and staff. She has created a project, written a book on the motion of casting incantations and is a student of Elementalism with a focus on Aeromancery. Recently, she named Senior Mage of Mikona/M'Chek for the Green Order of the Forest. Later, was placed within the High Mage Council, becoming one of the three voices for the Green Order.

While it is most true that she seeks the "Sublime Chord" and in what free time she has she theorizes about it. The concept of blending true bardic composition with arcane knowledge poses more questions than answers each time she considers it.

Drakehall

Sage of Drakehall

While Thaylis and Nawen figured each other out and what they were about. He invited her to become the Sage of Drakehall and advise him. She had just taken the rank of sage at the ATU and was flexing her knowledge of real-world history. Given her knowledge of battle and tactics; this made her a natural choice to advise at Drakehall and offer a counterpoint to Rickus of Toran.

They were together for the Quest to locate and secure the fabled "Horns" and were advising him during the attempts to locate and save "The Lost Ones". Since there she has taken a more political approach and helped him in advancing his ideas for northwestern M'Chek and keeping the alliance of the three together.

Since joining as their sage. She has started building a library within the keep and has plans for a school in Westshore.

Stalker and Pixie

Since before the war and fall of Elysia. Nawen had carried on a passionate affair with her partner Mista. Mista would help convinced Nawen to open the boutique in Elysia and was now in the Gardens with her lover. For years the couple carried on like they were the only two in the world. Given Mista's Fey blood she knew time was fleeting with a single soul. Even though Nawen at times had been sought after by many different names as a partner. She stayed loyal to her lover.

Thaylis and Nawen's wedding at Drakehall
Thaylis and Nawen's wedding at Drakehall

That is until the Half-Nymph Couriers showed up with a package for Nawen. Taken a little back by such; she signed three times on the paper and accepted the package. For years and years, she had sought Cherry River Lambic but was unable to find it in any real quantity. Sitting within the box was several bottles of the unbelievable brew but no card as to who it was from. Some like Finn, openly stated it was from Thaylis by the fancy bottle. Others agreed with him. Soon, little wooden carved animals would show up on her windowsill or on her table in Zvid. Friends of the two seem to arrange change meetings and encounters and soon she started warming up to the idea that there was more to love than safety with her longtime friend.

After a very long and heartfelt talk with Mista. In which Mista encourages her friend to explore her heart as well as life itself and pursue the one stalking her. At the Pirate theme Trade Fair, she sang a song about wanting his kisses between her thighs but metaphor the song into a Mermaid song about drowning him. This would to him to create the little wooden animals to get her attention and the attention he got. She created a butterfly that has varied meanings in the Gardens and gave it to him. Very quickly the two became inseparable and worked together like dream handling matters from the Lost Ones to the Horns. Even though others were not after her heart and attention too. The gift flirting was a constant between them; Nawen with her songs about what them and how he made her feel and him with little trinkets and craved animals.

Soon she was staying at his house and him at her and the two quickly became known as a couple. The songs stayed constant but the gift flirting started to take on a whole new level. First, a puppy that would be named Harmony and then a bear cub that would be named Osha. She would have a workshop designed for him to end his long walks to work on leather.

Then the moment of all awkward moments. FRAwen'ing of Drakehall and his not so well versed Nawen's native tongue. While she danced and sang her song 'Summer in Threes' and with the line nanshileeshan'oohevith v'nanshileesh'oohevith hod yoom the path became known as he slowly nodded with a little grin that told everyone he had no idea what she had sung. Those that understood the Nanshilae words even started asking him when he was going to marry her.

PoKvOs6.png


Soon while dancing at House Beign. He faked slipping and hurting himself and asked her to be his. Frannie threw an engagement party at Grace's hall. In time they would be wed at Drakehall; which all their wedding finery had been stolen by a scheming son of a trusted merchant and trader but the wedding was saved by House Skybreaker speaking with the Queen Adathi and almost emptying Nor'Seere of finery and loaning such to Drakehall to save the wedding. In her kindness, the young man that stole the wedding finery was punished not with pain or in a cell but sentenced to learning a work ethic; to this day Charlie is still a valued member of Drakehall's staff. A more public wedding was held later the following day at the Gardens surrounded by friends and wellwishers.

These days, she is his equal as he has always treated her. Still his advisor and helps to make sure he has all the information he needs to see things through. Mista still works for Nawen and the two are known to exchange 'ideas' and 'thoughts' on certain topics. Mista herself is rumored to have taken a satyr as a lover and is very shameless about their love; almost as shameless as Nawen about Thaylis.<be>

Life at Drakehall

In the years since her wedding. She has added Drakehall in helping free the Lost Ones from their curse, numerous battles at sea, sought out the fabled Warhorns of Jechio, the Return of Lady Valenoviel to Elysia, Defeated the Sons the Life, and ended the BlinkieQueen; just to name a few. When not out exploring the troubles of the lands. She can sometimes be found on stage in plays or singing concerts. Not only has she become an avid horseback rider but is also one of the three top riders at Hoffy's Bish Bash races.

In more recent times, the Beings were granted a rank of nobility and deed to Drakehall Keep and its lands.
