Personality

Alignment: Neutral Good

Talora is overall friendly to most people, though you would never guess from how she approaches conversation. Because of tragic events after the Third War her mind has been shattered giving her an almost childlike state of mind. She views Ashenvale as her home and will try and center the conversation on how “pretty” her home is. She views most all who enter her home as welcome guests, and will greet and welcome them, in her own way, to her home. Orcs and Trolls, on the other hand, she views as unwelcome intruders due to the damage they have done to the forest, and will approach aggressively (if not violently). She outright fears demons, and will flee at the sight of them.

History

Talora was a night elf without a niche. Her father, whom she never met, spent her entire life communing with the Ysera. Her mother on the other hand was a simple herbalist, and though Talora had a natural affinity to caring for plant life, she never felt complete being a simple herbalist, though for the better part of 300 years this is what she did. Then the third war came, and with it the return of the druids, her father. After the war the Cenarian Circle began taking female members into there ranks, and with her fathers endorsement she finally found her niche. Though she was young, relatively, she had shown great adeptness to the druidic arts.

While traveling with some friends through Ashenvale, she and her friends were captured by demons near Felfire Hill. There she watched in horror as her fellow druids were tortured and killed. Eventually she saw an opportunity to escape when a demon hunter began attacking the demons in Felfire Hill, while the demons were distracted she managed to slip away. Though she escaped from her captures, her mind broke from the atrocities she bore witness to. Now she is a shell of her former self, her broken mind took on an almost childlike state. Unable to cope with her inability to save her friends from death, she started caring for Ashenvale as a mother cares for a child. She uses her druidic powers to heal what is dead or dying and will fiercely defend it against anyone who tries to harm it. This has made her a bit of an enemy to the Orcs and Troll whom occupy the woods, as she has killed or maimed many who were found cutting down her trees.

Because of the treatment her captures showed upon her, she has blocked out many memories of her life leading up to her escape. If questioned about her past she only remembers small fragments, a name, a place, or a feeling. If the topic ever falls upon her capture, and if she does not fight to keep it lost in her mind, she will begin to shake, sweat, tear, and breathe heavily as she relives the event.
