Appearance

Personality

Samuli (Sam-oo-lee) is kind, by and large. Her most stand-out quality is a habit of treating other races with a sense of childish awe---not that she behaves as a child, but she has a sort of 'oh, look what the baby can do now!' air about her that is either warm or irritating. Very devout in her following of the Light of Creation, though she squelches urges to 'teach' most of the time.

Still, one can see that the Light is her life simply in her daily doings. Everything can relate to the Light, and she's most likely as irritating in that regard as the religious zealots of other realms...

Aside from zealotry, there is a kind heart. A willingness to use the Light to 'smite' those who she believes have truly wronged (and her opinions on that are often odd and even more often useless), and quiet urge to spread the teachings of the Light of Creation to the younger races of Azeroth. Always involving herself with the infant races, she has even adopted a simplified version of her name, with a more human quality. Sam. To most she introduces herself as Sam (Sah-m, as it comes out when she says it), furthering her apparently compulsion to amalgamate with the natives while nudging them toward the 'Illuminated Path'.

History

She should, in theory, have a whole lot of it. And probably does. It's not worth telling, however... Her birthplace is somewhere amongst the plethora of planets the Eredar have inhabited in their time. She does not seem to recall which one, or perhaps simply doesn't care. "My race is here, as are my allies. And the Light, it is always. It is everywhere. I am, then, home." A typical response if someone pries.

It's not worth prying into. She's not hiding anything, it just doesn't matter.

Aside from that, at some point she---as many of her kind do---begun to learn the ways of the Light. She studied, and then further devoted her life to following the teachings provided toward the Light of Creation. Became at some point a Priestess, and at that point her story stagnates. She likes it that way, though. Vaguely she will allude to having seen battle---presumably she did not let her kin fight without her aid, even if she is 'only' a Priestess.

Only is relative, as due to the natural affinity her kind have for the Light, a light follower can be as potent as any if not as physically imposing. Still, she doesn't go into specifics about that either. Obviously by personality would prefer not to see combat at all. Also noted that there are faint marks etching her here and there... though most often covered by some sort of clothing. She's not lived her time unscathed.

When her kind arrived in Azeroth, she was among the first to volunteer to venture out and seek the aid of this Alliance. They had collectively, of course, sensed the presence of the Paladins and assorted other 'goodnesses' in the world... she was curious and saw no reason not to involve with them especially since some of them already seemed so close to the illuminated path.

This lead her to exploration, as many are lead to for various reasons. And eventually learning Common well enough to better get to know Alliance races.

Essentially, all the information of her history is minutia. She's a priestess, and the rest is generic notation of how any typical priestess of her race would get where she's gotten.

[Small edit! Talents: Sings. Plays a string instrument similar to a harp. Light tends to react to her singing---like hymns that don't do anthing. Again, they don't do anything. They're just pretty when she sings and plays her music. Theoretically they could do something, but who really takes the time to sing when healing/protection is needed? Exactly.]
