Association(s): The Exodar

Race: Draenei

Class: Shaman

Skills and Abilities: Dia trained herself as an elemental shaman ever since her departure of the Azuremyst Isles; however, she departed before her training was complete, so even now, her technique is rash and rushed. Because of her long history of being harassed and ambushed frequently by Horde, Dia is all about spamming lightning bolts and fire spells as fast as possible. If there is such thing as a “magic beserker", that's her. Her hot temper and uncontrollable anger is her strength as well as her weakness, leaving her open to attack if one can manage to avoid her spell spamming.... granted she didn't root one to the ground with her Earthbind totem.

Typically wears a crimson silk vest with brown bracers and a red-and-purple striped streaked skirt, on occasion a multi-colored Draenic robe. For armor, she has a full Furious Gladiator gear set earned from many a battleground she fought in. Wears hanging gold earrings.

Other: Diwaata has a body shape that differs from her in-game model, being in that her chest is smaller and she has a bit of a pot belly. Her tail and tendrils are also long for a female.

Personality

Diwaata is very vain, shallow, and vapid, and she is especially known to be impulsive, impatient, and ill-tempered. In addition, she is extremely hostile towards all Horde, and is especially hateful towards orcs and blood elves.

She is not without good sides, however. Despite her flaws, she is a very loyal friend, and she is willing to be humble towards those her earn her respect, even if the person is a Horde. Also in spite of her habitual vapidity, she is down-to-earth and connected with nature, especially in regards to plant life due to her alchemy and herbalism.

History

Diwaata and Kapre were two grown orphans raised by a matron aboard the Oshu'Gun when they arrived on Draenor while among other Draenei. After settling in Shattrath for many years, they, among others around their age, were those who gathered south of Telaar and west of the Burning Blade and Bleeding Hollow villages in Nagrand. There, they attempted a settlement that was to provide a new home for these young draenei as well as to open a trading post with the neighboring orcs. During this time, Diwaata, Kapre, and their circle of friends befriended some orcs, including a shaman, named Mahen'Tosh Blindthunder, and a warrior who would become Mahen's mate, Ka'Wal. However, it was not long when the orcs unleashed their attack shortly after Dia's brother took on his own family, sending them on a constant run as friends and family are felled.

Diwaata and her family contined their struggle for survival, being among those who managed to live when Draenor exploded and fragments of the planet were flung into the Nether. Going from hiding place to place, the family stayed close together until they came to rest in Telredor. There, the family settled some, Kapre's son Saya growing to adulthood in the absence of a mother lost long ago. During this time, Dia stayed with her brother and nephew as she became Saya's surrogate mother. The time then came for the Draenei to escape--Diwaata, Kapre, and Saya boarded the Exodar with their surviving bretheren while blood elves there would make their attempts to sabatoge their escape. During the crossing of dimensions, Saya would become separated from his father and aunt amidst the chaos. Come the crashing into the Azuremyst Isles, Kapre and Diwaata became gravely injured but survived... but Saya would not. Saya was then buried among others in Ammen Vale, where Kapre stayed to mourn while Diwaata departed for the remains of the Exodar.

During the recovery period of the Draenei, the twins would encounter Azerothian natives as their bretheren integrated into the Alliance. It was this time when Diwaata met the valorous and poetic human paladin, Cristovao di Silvio, and the stern yet eccentric gnome warrior, Pulla Hotbolt; Kapre, still in Ammen Vale, would meet the curious human girl, Sirene Adele, and the lazy but sweet-natured kaldorei druid, Kantado Starseer. The twins would reunite in the Exodar, and a new circle of friends was formed. The time would come for the four friends would depart the isles; however, before then, Cristovao would encourage the draenei siblings to leave their lives of sorrow and explore Azeroth. The twins would be left behind for some time before they would pick up shamanism as a means of spiritual recovery. By then, Diwaata considered Cristovao's suggestion, and she departed the Isles before her own training was complete.

Eventually Diwaata managed to track Cristovao down just before he was ready to enter the Dark Portal. By this time, Dia was strong enough to face the demons there but was still far from mastering her shamanistic abilities--not to mention very embittered and angry with her hardship-wracked experiences in Azeroth. Feeling bad for leaving Diwaata to fend for herself while she explored her new home, Cristovao offered Dia to join together in their travels as he would provide mentorship and protection for her while she continued to master her abilities. They both then approached the Dark Portal and entered together to experience the broken home of the Orcs and Draenei.

The experiences that followed were stressful for Diwaata. The entire time she was wrought with bad memories of her old home, at one point even wandered near the Auchidoun where she was nearly killed before Cristovao came to rescue her. However, the Auchidoun incident drew both of them closer, and from that moment on they declared their love for each other and became mates. They would then continue to explore Outland before the stress of visiting a troubled home overcame Dia; Cristovao then decided it was time to leave.

The rest of their travels together would eventually bring them to Northrend, and from there, Diwaata honed her abilities as a shaman by engaging in battle with the Horde there as she, Cristovao, and their dwarf friend Skala prepared for their fights against the Lich King. For a time she stayed in Dalaran, making money off of her alchemy and joining the armies into the battlegrounds as they would face the Lich King's armies. Once again, however, her time of exploration and combat was cut short--she grew weary of the fights as she was overwhelmed by the Horde there. Taking a break by the time the fight against the Lich King drew to a close, Diwaata decided upon studying various plant life from Northrend and some parts of the rest of Azeroth as well as to improve her alchemy, and from there she left Northrend and returned to Azuremyst Isles.

By the time of Arthas' defeat, Diwaata has retired from war and combat and decided to devote her time and energy for relaxation and reuniting with her brother. She then makes attempts to start a new life with, hopefully, a new family with Cristovao--however, Kapre, by this time, has become bitter with his sister leaving him for a (human) man she hardly new during his grieving period, thus refusing to acknowledge Cristovao as his brother-in-law. Thinking a visit to Shattrath would help ease the tension between her brother and human mate, Diwaata brings herself and both males to what was a part of a pilgrimage lead by Anchorite Telah and Shamaness Nexariel. Though the first few days were filled with hostility, accusations, and misunderstandings, eventually Cristovao was accepted by the draenic brethren, and he and Kapre became friends. However, the pilgrimage for Diwaata did not end there--she decided to make her visit in Outland her own purpose of spiritual fulfilment, as well as to help her overcome her troubled past. Since then, Dia has stayed among other draenei in hopes to reconnect with her brethren as she works to bring her own family closer.
