Personality

Alignment: Neutral Good

Evelyn's general demeanor is amicable and saccharine in her cheerfulness. It's uncommon to hear a sinister tone creep into her voice – and when it does, she keeps it well hidden under a coating of diabetes inducing sweetness. Evelyn enjoys talking with just about anyone she meets, and is almost immune to being intimidated away by them – from the sweetest priestess to the most sinister looking warlock, Evelyn will gleefully prattle onto them -forever- about anything she happens to be thinking about at the moment – from her husbands experiments, to her sons accomplishments, to her desire for grandchildren, to weather. She doesn't care.

Evelyn is a mother and wife through and through. Her loyalty to her husband is steadfast and undying – regardless of how naughty and promiscuous she may come off as, it's all a joke to her, she and her husband often embracing it for shock value around strangers. Stronger than anything is her love and dedication for her son – even as the adult he is now, Evelyn would sacrifice her life to protect her boy. If he asked her to bring down the sky, she would try.

Evelyn, natural to her good nature, has the least combat experience between the living Briarthorns, and is much quicker to seek diplomatic solutions than her hot headed son or her prideful husband. That being said, of all the family, Evelyn is the last one a person would want to fight – this old broad is an absolute menace with her magic.

Unlike most women her age, Evelyn doesn't seem distressed over her slowly draining youth and the onset of age. She seems to be taking to old age well as it slowly sets in, and even looks forward to it to a degree. Rather than gussy herself up with uncomfortable amounts of makeup to recapture her youth, Evelyn focuses on making the best of what she has, preferring to look lovely and wizened rather than an old lady acting and dressing like a young girl. She embraces her age – and indeed, embraces a lot of things life throws at her.


History

Evelyn was born the bastard child of Alicia Ross and Xavier Naharev, her mother a merchants daughter. She never knew her father, and she never cared to ask her mother or find out – she found a father figure in her grandfather growing up, and was well educated on all things business, math, and a dash of mysticism by him and her mother. Evelyn's childhood was largely uneventful – she was a flighty individual and pledged little loyalty to anything save her family.

Growing up in Lordaeron, her family was frequently doing business in Dalaran, traveling too and from the great cities. Her mother eventually suggested Evelyn try her hand at an apprenticeship with a local magi after the girl showed a small degree of magical aptitude.

In no time, Evelyn took to her studies with gusto, and when she was finally learning to cast spells, she showed a knack for abjuration and evocation, and practiced enchantment on the side. Her master was situated in Capital City, rather than Dalaran, and she often enjoyed visiting the magic city in hopes of furthering her studies.

She probably would of been stuck in Capital City all her life if not for a chance meeting with a Gilnean man, just as she was entering adulthood. Silvester Briarthorn and his parents had moved to Capital City for 'personal reasons', claiming to have tired of their life in Gilneas. In less than a year, Evelyn and Sly hit it off, and were soon married – more at their parents extreme insistence when it was discovered that Evelyn was pregnant out of wedlock with Silvester's child.

Seeking to relocate to a safe place to raise their child and pursue their passions, Evelyn and Silvester took what they had and relocated to Dalaran. Evelyn's in-laws soon followed, but her mother remained in order to tend to Eve's now sickly grandparents.

She never did manage to get in contact with mum after the Fall of Lordearon.

Evelyn took some time off to focus on raising her son full time who she doted on endlessly, dedicating her life to the 'light of my eyes'. She was slightly disappointed that her son showed no apt for magic, but perked up considerably when he was taken under the wing of a Paladin who was a native to the city. With her son now in training as a squire, Evelyn returned to her studies with extreme prejudice.

Over the years, Evelyn has become an accomplished magi and even boasts a middling position within the Kirin Tor. Though she had no apprentice of her own, and not much clout with other magi, she enjoyed ordering around hapless magi with less experience under their belt – many of them often citing to have a renewed appreciation for 'old fashion mage training' after a year with Evelyn.

Evelyn is a proud magi and mother, and has seen her fair share of happiness, sadness, celebration, and dispair in her life. She's lost two homes – Lordaeron and Dalaran, but with Dalaran restored, her husband happily invested in his studies, and her son safe and off to find his place in the world, Evelyn can truly say she is content with life...

Now, about those grandchildren...
