Personality

Shanra is good natured, friendly, and always curious about new things, as a result of her past. She's a bit shy, not having had much of a social life for some time, yet, she's always willing to make a new friend.

Alignment: Shanra would probably best described as Chaotic Good. She's good-natured at heart, however, her limited combat abilites makes her unlikely to be the heroic saviour who steps in to save an innocent. She will do what she can, though.

History

Shanra was born in the village of Goldshire, right after the end of the Second War. Her family was one which held great respect for the Elves and their culture, with the result that Shanras early youth was spent as much in elven legends as in the present world. She was taught to read at a young age, and spent many, many hours reading about elvish heroes and legends.

Her life took a brutal turn when Prince Arthas begun his systematic destruction of the kingdom of Lordaeron. Shanras family, afraid that the Scourge would move on to the kingdom of Azeroth after they were finished with Lordaeron, begun to take more and more extreme measures to ensure the safety of the family. Shanras life, which had been a balance between exploring the Elwynn Forest and studying inside, became more and more restricted, until she was finally forbidden to leave the house.

When the war ended, Shanra, now a young woman, could finally leave the family house, for the first time in years. Having spent most of the dull hours in the house studying magic, (a subject she had been fascinated by since her early experiences of reading elvish legends), she begun to take up the ways of a mage. Now, she has become a kind of travelling sorceress, journying from village to village, using her spellcraft to fulfill various tasks to raise money, but mainly exploring the world she spent years locked away from.

Appearence: Pale skin contrasts with dark hair in this young woman, looking about twenty years old. Her eyes are blue, and upon closer look, one can see that they seem rather unused to the bright light of the sun. She is dressed in a simple travelling robe, and carries an equally unadorned wandering staff.

Those with sensitivity to magic, or just remarkably keen eyes, can notice faint signs of arcane energies around her, and thereby uncover a multitude of enchantments. Some are aimed at protecting her from harm, but most are simple tricks and enchantments of comfort, like the spell that makes her staff hover in the air behind her, without actually touching her back.
