Personality

Alignment: Chaotic Good

Dascki is a very emotional, strong-willed and emphatic person who puts all her heart and effort into the things she does. Enthusiastic about magic, she is most at home near ley lines, arcane constructs and libraries; becoming absolutely giddy when given the opportunity to interact with and learn about such things. She is stubborn and straightforward, often calling others out for their weaknesses and delusions. Dascki is tactful with her honesty and her stout heart allows her to make difficult and dangerous choices very easily so long as they coincide with her strong sense of duty and morality. Kindhearted and empathetic, Dascki is the type of person who consistently tries her best to aid and support the people around her and is very sensitive to the pain of others.

As one who values family above most other things, Dascki is a bit of a worrier and concerns herself with the welfare of people she cares about. However, on the other side of her sensitive and emotional nature is a temper. When insulted, hurt or embarrassed, she is prone to lash out violently.

History

Born to a rather wealthy family, Dascki had a peaceful childhood in Eversong Woods. She and her siblings would spend their days playing in the woods and their nights at home, listening to their parents as they spoke about magic. Although the parents were both mages, they were professional doctors and would treat the sick and wounded in their village. Dascki would often stand by their parents when there was a villager in need of medical attention and she learned quite a bit from them, in terms of magic and first aid. Her childhood was rather uneventful and she as she grew, she began to take a serious try at becoming a mage. Her parents taught her the basics and were able to send her to the Magistry to begin her training.

Lord Strifium Flamefeather was the Magister in charge of Dascki. Despite being a rather quick learner, she found herself flooded in work and studying. Strifium did not seem to care how hard it was for her, he simply wanted her to improve. And improve she did, as they began to get close and she began to look up to him as an elder. During her studies, she came across the ley lines. She began to take an incredible interest in the ley lines, despite her master' disapproval at the choice of specialization. Not long after, she was considered a successful arcanist and her master let her go and study whatever she wished. An arcanist part of the Magisters had access to quite a few books and she spent several months reading and studying about these lines. She also traveled to Dalaran to try and work with them and gain their knowledge, but she always returned home.

She would go out into the forest and find the great ley lines at the sanctums that continued up towards the Isle of Quel'danas. She wondered, if there were more lines than just what was obvious. It was during this time, that she began to meditate on that thought. For months and months, she would begin her meditation to try and reach other lines. She began to feel a power hidden in the world. The entirety of the First War went by and she stayed behind, continuing her studies. Although many considered her to be foolish to be looking into a power that hardly exists, she found a select few who understood her struggle. Together, they began to share their knowledge about the ley lines and their theories. But this gathering of minds was cut short, as the Second War demanded the attention of all battle-ready elves. And Dascki was one of the mages who would be able to help in the war.

She was sent along with many other elven soldiers to combat the Horde and defend Lordaeron from Orcish assault. Although the battle seemed grim, the Alliance was able to push forward and destroy the Horde forces in Blackrock Mountain. In order to kill, she repressed most of her emotions, acting more like a sheep than a intelligent being. Upon returning to Silvermoon, she told the Magistry she would no longer be working with them and took her research and books to the southern part of Quel'thalas. Finally being away from the distractions of the city and the politics involved with the mages, she was able to finally reach the web-like ley lines that traveled through all things. She began to feel it everywhere. It permeated through all things and crisscrossed through everything. She wondered about harnessing this power, but was once again stopped by the coming of the Scourge. She returned to Silvermoon to aid as best she could.

It was the Scourge who killed her family, her friends and destroyed the Sunwell. Disheartened and suffering from withdrawal, she and her fellow mages began to think of a way to survive. Until, the Twisting Nether became an easy option. She was shown how to siphon these energies and found herself becoming powerful again. After helping to rebuild the city, she renamed herself a blood elf and, with a new power source, began to continue her studies. Despite having trouble finding these subtle lines, she was able to discover them and soon after, began to harness their energies. While it did not grant her any new abilities, she did begin to notice that traveling through teleportation was far easier than it had been previously and that she felt far less energy drain during the casting of her spells. She continued to practice the use of the ley lines until, she traveled to the newly relocated Dalaran in Northrend. There, she helped the mages battle the blue dragons and their minions until Malygos was defeated. In the aftermath of the war, she returned to her home in Quel'thalas. She then grabbed her things and left, continuing her research into the lines.
