Appearance

She's usually found in the armour she fights in. She doesn't care for comfort, and besides, not being in battle is not a reason to be complacent.

Other: As a result of countless battles, she is pitted with scars. She's usually in armour which she makes sure are in tip-top condition all the time though, so they go unseen. She hates and fears the undead, and would go out of her way to eliminate them.

Personality

Sael is rather brusque and callous. She's also quite oblivious to the feelings of others, but she doesn't mean offense...mostly. She does try to do good, though nobody is around when she does it. She's a very determined person and would do anything to help her allies. She dislikes beating around the bush.

History

Saelwynra was born to a night elf priestess and a druid. As she grew up, she showed no affinity for the natural or the divine, preferring to tackle the physical and the now. There was nothing exceptional to her childhood, and when she came of age, she joined the Sentinels, where she served for the next few hundred years.

The Third War forced the night elves out of their self-imposed isolationism, and though at first she fought against the orcs who were deforesting Ashenvale, necessity forced the night elves to join forces with the orcs and humans. She was present at the battle of Mount Hyjal, and seeing so many of her comrades fall while she survived shook her deeply, and after the Third War, she vowed to never wield a blade again, and returned to Ashenvale to live there as a hermit.

However, after a few years, she could no longer turn a blind eye to the events around her. The formerly peaceful beasts of the forest now attacked any moving thing they could see, blinded by rage and fear. The forests to the north now played host to satyrs, something the night elves would never have tolerated. Worst of all, the naga were now stalking the coasts of Azshara, only a three days' march to Darkshore. They had finally decided to reveal themselves.

Alarmed, Saelwynra tried to find out what they were after, but her attempts met with failure. Knowing that an individual effort would likely end in failure, she informed the Astranaar sentinels, only to be told that they were busy holding back the cult that had managed to worm its way into Ashenvale as it is. Undeterred, she set off for Teldrassil, intending to get some aid for the besieged forest.

In Teldrassil, she found that the night elves there also had their hands full. She realised that Teldrassil had to be cleared of fel corruption before the Cenarion Enclave would turn its eyes to other areas, and thus started aiding the populace of Teldrassil.

Recently, Saelwynra has joined the Emerald Hand as a bodyguard, as she feels the cause is just, and (technically) she's being paid.
