Personality

Castella is a rather playful woman. She messes around, she cracks jokes, and she is a good person at heart. Being an impulsive Elf, Castella leaps without thinking. First impressions are very important to her, so she tries to be nice to strangers, and expects strangers to be nice to her.

Like many people, she would defend any family with her life. Friends...she's willing to let die to get away. Ultimately, Castella's decision making process revolves around two things. First, will it benefit her? And second, will it be fun? If something meets one of those two goals, she will most likely do it.

History

Born to a family of thieves, Castella grew up in the areas of Quel'Thas. Being a member of a low-class family, she swiftly learned how to be quick with her hands, and how to be nimble on her feet. Her family found her quite adept at following the family trade of stealing from others. And she was more than happy to learn this trade.

Her profession led her to learn how to wield a great deal of weapons. Some obscure, some common. Blades, hammers, pole-arms. She had experience with all of them. Despite all her training though she was privy to two rather exotic weapons, the whip and the pistol, preferring them to all others.

While the First and Second Wars waged on, Castella spent most of her time away from home. Stealing whatever she needed to do in order to ebb a living. Though she would occasionally do an odd job for someone so she might be paid, it was mainly simple robbery that sustained her lifestyle. Despite all her efforts though, she never really did anything 'big', and thus remained low-class.

She would travel to Silvermoon during the Third war, taking some time to spend her money on a life of temporary and ultimately fruitless luxury. A small amount of time was spent with her aged and dieing parents, who she stayed with until they passed on. After which she saw to their burials, and the closing up of their home.

Fortunately, Castella was no where near Silvermoon when it was besieged. Yet she felt the aftereffects of the Sunwell's destruction as much as her fellow Elves. Figuring that something was up with her home-city and its precious wonder, she returned home to find Silvermoon in ruins. And when everyone else gave into the Fel magic, so did she.

She continued her life as a thief, taking whatever she needed to survive. And as time marched on, she met members of other races, such as Orcs, Trolls, and so forth. The events that passed since Silvermoon ended up changing her outlook on life. It is due to one event in particular though, that she even managed to change her beliefs. The previously faithless woman began to worship the Light, and thank it for protecting her and her only remaining family member, Krilari.

Castella now trains to become a Paladin much like her brother. Only time will tell if she succeeds or fails in her aspiration to join the holy ranks of the Light.
