==Early Life==
Telina and her sister are the product of an infidelity between a
married Nanshin with children of his own and a T'Nnashi dwelling O'Ma
nymph.  The twins know nothing of their father save his
family name which they took for their own.  Their mother of

an excuse to be somewhat bossy with Juine.  In practice though


Juine stayed more with the adults, Telina was always drawn to


the periphery of the group, always pushing her boundaries,


willful and more interested in what was living under that pile


of sticks than the merriment of the group. Their youth was

grove of plenty to another with little direction or guidance,

life as a time to enjoy being alive.  For a time, the life

Early Life

Telina and her sister are the product of an infidelity between a

nymph. The twins know nothing of their father save his

In Elysia

When the twins arrived in Elysia and declared their intention to

become Champions they were met with extraordinary kindness. They

were given gifts of weapons, gold, armor and more.

Thror Stormhammer, Galakh the stone among others were kind with gifts,

Karak Hammerstar provided instruction through example of how to be a

born for Telina. Consequentially she spent as much time as she could

others. In a way, Telina idolizes Karak and, perhaps surprisingly,

wants to be just like him. She is however, completely ill-equipped to

be much of anything like him at all.

The twins beauty brought them much positive regard at first but sooner

or later Telina sensed that this wouldn't be enough. After a trip

to Mikona where more gifts were bestowed upon them by the merchants

smitten by them there the twins sought out opportunities to be industrious.

Shayra Thornberry, Marin Nemelgen and others gave them opportunities

to produce heal kits, potions of fire and otherwise, earn a

living in a satisfactory fashion.


In this time Telina learns from Kai Ral Windspar from the

encouragement of Moira Celyn Windspar Callindraes about Fyglia.

Her tutelage is furthered by Jwolaroth Ruk & Sanney Fereyn, the latter

who encourages the twins to join the order of O'ma, the former of

which has Telina approached by the Shemathen. As with the AKN though

it seems Telina is simply too focused on overcoming her fey spirit

to achieve more than her original stated aim so nothing comes of actual

or proposed membership in any of these organizations for Telina;

to become a Champion of O'Ma. Perhaps this is for the best though

considering that her twin, Juine has yet to complete Champion training.


During her training period three crucial events happen to Telina.

First, while learning about her fyglia Telina encounters an

avariel woman named Thienna who was tortured once with great cats.

Telina is so struck by her story that she tries to help the woman to

overcome her phobia but is changed herself and takes on the bear

fyglia for herself having lost a certain degree of infatuation with

cats. Second, she falls into alcoholism which jeopardizes her

ability to continue training. Meeting an Angdarian named Sephira Everliss

who was suffering a much more advanced form of alcohol addiction

than her own scared Telina straight. In the bargain, Telina and Sephira

become fast friends and confidants in one another. In Telina's

mind, leading Sephira to the first steps away from evil. Third, she meets

Telina often spoke as her way of summarizing her dedication to continue

Following her ordainment which was attended by several people, every

soul present being immensely appreciated by Telina, she was

stationed on a frigate escorting supplies to Grantir. She stood in as

ships garrison but saw no action and was never given liberty to

leave the ship when in port at Grantir though she did get back on the

ground when the ship was in other ports of call such as Ferrell,

Mikona, etc. As her ship had a sizable fey crew component her mastery

of common backslid somewhat. After a time, she returned to

southern avlis where her story continues, now as a member of Le'Megen

fighting against Drotid's invasion.


Snow Serpent

Not long after her ordainment but much prior to her joining Le'Megen Telina attacked the Shaahesk. She did this before Drotid had declared war on any of the southern Nations but the general impression was that war was coming. In a fit of a lack of understanding of international politics she considered the nations to be at war already and took it upon herself to concoct a variety of poisons while exposing the shaahesk who were visiting all the nations of the south and Visimontium besides, to diseases that would only affect them. In conjunction with this, she used what she knew about fairy magic to lay a curse upon the shaahesk race.
