Appearence

Usual Garments/Armor: Natira is always in public with her equipment, which comes off as rather fashionable, given what other Night Elves walk around in nowadays. Her leather garments consist of a lightly-padded vest, closed at the front via fastenings. Her legs are relatively more protected, with padding at the thighs and knees. The lower half of her face is protected by a sort of leather cover that wraps loosely around her head, fastened at the front.

Personality

Natira, while having quite a few things to talk about if she so desired, prefers to be quiet and reserved for her own sake; in her mind, talking too much and too much self-expression is more than likely to end up in either embarassing yourself or being rejected and ousted for being too different. Generally, she does not enjoy being asked questions and is hesitant to answer most small-talk inquiries. For example, somebody can walk up to her in a bar and ask what her name is. She will more than likely respond by blinking at the person and asking why they want to know what her name is, as if she does not understand why the person would want to know her name in the first place. She -will- tell the person her name, if given an appropriate reason, but holding a conversation is not her strong suit. Natira is not necessarily "shy," but simply doesn't like talking to people, and as a result, isn't the best at socializing. Her will is otherwise ironclad, and she is not weak in mind nor in body. She is not necessarily selfless, but she generally will do the "right thing," per se. She's no stranger to making executive decisions, and often lives off of the mindset of "Kill one, save a hundred." She is aware that the hardest decisions will often be the right one.

History

Natira Moonstag was born in Ashenvale, to her loving parents Sheldoran Moonstag and Soraliya Moonstag. Her mother was a Sentinel, and her father a Druid. While her mother was more lenient than her father, the two were serious to an extent, and very dedicated to their respective ways. Sheldoran and Soraliya both had their fair share of serving for their people, protecting their land, however Sheldoran was seldom present, as he was asleep in the Emerald Dream. Being a sentimental and very protective woman, albeit a ruthless Sentinel when worse came to worse, Soraliya had hoped that Natira would grow to be more of a thinker than a fighter, and avoid the dangers of war. Maybe a priestess. But of course, her hopes were to no avail; Natira showed great physical potential, being an impressive athlete and an impressive fighter. While this was off-putting for Soraliya, she accepted this truth, and waited to see what Natira's future would be as a Night Elf. She watched her, from early childhood to mid adolescence, and found that she was more than fit to be a Sentinel one day. It was then that Soraliya decided to abandon her paranoia towards Natira. She had also found that Natira bore the traits of an introvert, but was not entirely shy nor self-consumed, as is the common misconception of an introvert. Natira was kind, yet neutral. Her morals were generally based around making sure that she was happy, but to keep her eye on others, and attempt to nip potential problems at the bud should one arise.

As Natira grew, her admiration for her mother -and all Sentinels in general- grew with it. Soraliya obviously noticed this, and took Natira under her wing, teaching her the basics of fighting. Over the course of decades of training (and Natira still trains to this day), she slowly became adept at almost every weapon at her disposal. Soraliya began taking her on small trips across the forests of Ashenvale, occasionally making a few kills should the wildlife attack them.

While her mother had no qualms with Natira, Soraliya wondered regardless of what Sheldoran would think of Natira. After all, both Soraliya and Sheldoran had originally shared the idea that it would be best if their daughter did not put herself in danger with her occupation. To be safe, Soraliya slowly took her on adventures less and less, avoiding any killing and eventually, the trips halted entirely. In her late adolescence, Naitra approached her mother on this, as the sudden halt confused her. Her mother admitted that originally, they had hoped that she wouldn't have been a talented fighter, and something less dangerous. Soraliya should have never said that, at least not until Natira was older. Natira took this to heart, and was rather upset with herself that she wasn't who her parents had hoped. Of course, this was an exaggeration. But Natira felt very strongly towards this for one reason or another. Her mother assured her that they were proud of her regardless, and they only want the best for her no matter what route she takes. But from that day on, Natira felt... off.

She began questioning her actions more and more, the more she grew. She never strayed from her path of one day becoming a Sentinel, but she wasn't sure what her parents thought of it, regardless of what her mother said. Her own exaggeration of things led to a downfall of her self-confidence, and she became very unsure of what to think of herself. She stayed this way for quite a while, even after she went out on her own. Soraliya never truly felt as though she was not satisfied with their daughter, in fact it was quite the contrary; she adored her daughter for everything that she was. But she cannot speak for Sheldoran, who is yet to meet Natira after awaking from the Dream. But Natira was betrayed by her own emotions, and left herself second-guessing everybodies opinion of her entirely. She grew up to be a vagabond, with her aspirations to be a Sentinel still intact, but she ruined every opportunity she got to become anything close to affiliated with them with her own insecurity.
