Many moons ago, a kind hearted Drow was quietly removed from the coven in which she was born. The elders did not take kindly to the young rebellious Drow, who found nature and life closer to her spirit than the rules of chaos and death. They ruled that she be banished and set out on her own. Cruel, they were, but one would not expect less from such a race. All of her memories were magically altered & hidden deep in her mind. Fearing an attack from the outside world because one of their own was infected with a kind heart, a spell was cast so that her appearance was permanently altered to mimic a human. Once set out, she realized she could not remember her name so she called herself Wizardress, for a little magic was all she knew. Magic came naturally to her. So after some minor exploration, she found herself in the vast city of Rune. The city was bustling with life. She stumbled upon a place that was very interesting yet she had no friends and no idea what to do. (What an adventure she was about to embark on!). The world in those days was much smaller, yet everything seemed so much bigger. She began her first adventure after a frisky female elf and gaunt looking man asked her to join them on their travels. The three of them set out on their first real adventure. Journey to the Pyramid in the desert. Quite a treacherous trip for three inexperienced adventurers. After discovering the wonders there, they travelled to Elemental Canyon. That's when her zest for adventuring really began. After her first few adventures, she took some quiet time in the city. Quite often, she'd see others attacking each other. The world was young and it wasn't long before she knew of most everyone and their business. "Watch & listen.. ancient words", her elvish friend advised her. Sailing the seas alone one day, a very cruel looking minotaur boarded the ship and accused her of being a spy. She protested her innocence and he told her he knew of her banishment and not to look to the race of Minotaurs for sympathy. She was quite confused by his words. He cloaked himself and disembarked at an Island before she had the chance to question him. So began her distate of Minotaurs. She was aware of spy invasions in clans, but never really gave it much thought as she was not interested in a clan.

However, she was level 30 when she literally ran into her introduction to clans. While searching the streets of Rune for the foul scum that sometimes invaded it, she took a wrong turn and was locked inside a shop by another frightful minotaur. This female minotaur was in battle with a Minx. She didn't know what was going on so she tried to leave but the minotaur kept slamming the door when she'd open it. "Don't open the door!" the minotaur yelled in between rounds "It will escape!". Curious, Wiz waited for them to finish fighting and then they introduced themselves. "Azurerain, the fearless!@" Az smiled. After a short conversation Az put Wiz in touch with the Mighty Greaywolf, co-leader of the new clan Galunlati (22). Wiz explained to Greay that she was inclinced towards neutrality. Greay responded that is just what they were looking for in this new clan. Magnifico was the founder; he is to blame for Wiz's love of the pg. He taught her the ropes and Arbreth (who later on also was made leader when she hit 120) taught her the tricks, in and out of pg, and some to this day alyrians do not even know about.

Her first cpk happened while exploring the Tower of Art. No clan members to been seen, and before she knew what hit her she was floating with Mordred the Damned. The Immortal Celestia took pity on her, looted her corpse then guided her safely out of the tower. From that moment on, her respect for the Immortals would never be questioned. Late in her second class, she found solace in her avid journeys to the proving grounds. Her first player CPK experience came compliments of a strong adventurer, Reese. Those days, the moat was filled. Every day, with campers and killers. She had learned how to dodge and weasel past them, some let her pass and from all of this, she learned. She knew the day was coming, and she had to face it head on. Reese was brutal, he had no remorse and no sympathy. If you were in the moat, and he could kill you, he was going to do it. She had no chance but bravely accepted her fate. From that day on, it was war, and she swore someday she'd kill him. She had a few more encounters within that month, he'd catch her in npk, figuring she'd flee into cpk, but she knew to just take the death. It was in her second class that her first marriage proposal came about. Cereal, a fellow clannie had asked and she accepted. Realizing she was too quick to accept, things were called off mutally. The moons cycled many times before her second proposal came about. She had become good friends with a sly gent by the name of Greyfax. They wanted to marry, but he had promised himself to someone else (a marriage of convenience), so they decided they would wait a rl year and get married on the following valentines day. (boy a lot happened in that year..)

Things in the clan were going great, they were nearing enough roots for an A hall. New members were joining, and Wiz began teaching them things that had been passed on to her. It was pretty strange and there were whispers among friends and clannies that she would someday be made a leader. It was around this time Magnifico was discouraged with the land and the way things were going. He had decided to take a long journey into the world of *real life* and he never really came back, just to say hi now and then. There was talk of our clan being targeted by clan Enigma. The reason is unclear but fright and excitement filled the land. Galunlati were attacked here and there. Wiz came to understand PK generally well. She did become aggressive for a time, and was elated that she was now equal with those that tried to intimidate her when she younger. Wiz heard some choice words about being aggressive from her leaders, they were not to PK, they were a peaceful clan. Wiz was more of a peaceful Drow than an aggressive one, but she had always thought everyone had the right to defend themselves (and seek revenge if they desired). The clan was instructed not to do this, at least for a little while. Well, a little while turned into many months and the war between Enigma and the Dark Order was flaring up (yet again) and other clans were getting involved, along with their respective allies. It was almost outright chaos and one of the best times Alyria has seen. Anyone and everyone was involved in some aspect, form fights, massive arena battles, spying, gossiping, threats and "secret" information being blasted on the global channel. ..For the newbies then, it was just watch, listen and learn or get involved and see where it takes you. Those were really interesting days. Life went on and finally, Wiz became a hero. By this time Wiz had a few close friends she trusted - Greaywolf, Quoz, Bastlynn, Arbreth, Donquin, Descrom, Ironbeard, Greyfax, Blackrose and Cereal. Shortly after becoming a Hero, Greaywolf and Arbreth had other projects that were taking much of their time and Wiz was bestowed the honor of leader and she was quite comfortable with it. Greaywolf and Descrom were great friends - they even considered getting married at one point. Wiz found this quite amusing. For some reason, that didn't happen and Descrom's affections fell upon Wiz. She was very taken by his charm and companionship. Once word got out about their growing relationship, former lovers and friends of Descrom appeared to her, warning that she should not get involved further, she would only be hurt and he would move on to someone else. This only intrigued her more and she ignored the warnings.

Galunlati as a clan was going up in terms of the social aspect but as a clan making progress, it was falling apart. It was a divided feeling. Wiz was 240, and had been with the clan from the beginning of her Journey. Since those early days, her clan had gathered enough roots for a B hall, but it was not built. Frustration was setting in. She was a leader yet she was at a standstill because it really wasn’t her clan and she couldn’t make big altering decisions. Something would have to give sooner or later. New members came into the picture, one had a very big impact on her and their friendship seemed instantanous. Wiz met Underdog through Astroboy (later called Astrogirl..). Astroboy had put Wiz in touch with Underdog regarding the whereabouts of a rare necklace and ring kept hidden in Lowangen. Wiz showed him where they were hidden. He was a younger adventurer but it was like they had known each other forever. Their affection grew into something probably neither of them expected. They had fun exploring and adventuring. Even with her growing affection for Underdog, Descrom was still in the picture and had asked her to marry him. Of course, she said yes. She was happy, yet more torn as time went on. The time came when Wiz and Under desperately wanted to be together and on the eve before her wedding to Descrom, she backed out and declared her love for Underdog.

PK wise, she was learning a little more every day, and the day came when she got her first cpk. It was a 2vs2. As Azurerain and Wiz were heading into the proving grounds, they stumbled upon Namble and Sephiroth near the small trail. Camping no doubt, they decided to take them on. Wiz and Az just shrugged and went after the shadowspawn, trying to bait the campers. It worked. It was a very, nice, full loot on both parts. Galunlati was not terribly happy with her aggression. A sort of rebellion developed within Galunlati, members were being attacked and with the clan rule of not striking back, Underdog, and Wiz decided they would leave the clan, and start their own. A clan where players had the right to defend themselves, at the very least. This was a hard decision to make, leaving the only place she had ever known, but the time for change was here. Together, they put pooled their money, half and half equally and discussed what to call their clan. A name was decided and clan oracle and clan eclipse borrowed them the activation fee. Wiz was overjoyed the day Underdog requested clan Diversity. Other Galunlati members would follow. Stryfer and Ceiphied as the first two. They toiled day and night in the pg, collecting roots to pay back the loans and finished this sooner than they thought. Wizardress had already agreed to become Underdog's wife so finally, yes finally, Wizardress did find love, and she did get married.

Not long after activation, Diversity went PK. It was a bad choice, but the clan felt so hindered in Galunlati where PK was concerned, they had to try. They lost half of their members over this and they toggled PK off to build the clan up. Not learning their lesson, they built up again and the original members decided to try PK once more. They had allied with the Dark Order in the dwindling war against Enigma and company. The clan crashed a second time and they turned off PK. They strayed from their original ideas and thought it was time to take the clan in the direction they intended. To give everyone the freedom of choice in their endeavors and adventures. Key members had stayed through the good and the bad, Freeman, Ramuh, Enbringer, Stryfer and Ceiphied. Tension between Under and Wiz prompted her to leave and join Tuath Fiana. This didn't last long, and she returned to Diversity. Sadly, the tension returned when friends informed Wiz that an affair between Underdog and Manerva was going on. These were hard times for clan Diversity, as all members suffered from such an ordeal. Wiz left the clan and filed for Divorce. The Immortals would not grant her request, and told her to take some time to think about it. Wiz had went to clan Euphoria in the meantime and found another place clan she enjoyed. But, things were not the same, she missed her clan so she returned to Diversity yet again. They had achieved D hall and were standing proud among many clans created before them that did not have the drive to succeed as they did. The last thing to accomplish was E hall. But, that was not to be. Friends that had come to her once before, came again with the same story, different clannie. Wiz hated to leave the clan she had given so much to, but there was no reason to stay any longer, the stress was too much. With a heavy heart, she left the clan and divorced Underdog. These were dark times. Clan wars were dying out, the zest for PK was rapidly dwindling. However, new cities and items were being discovered, so exploration was on the rise. Clan Enigma was in the midst of rebuilding and Wiz was asked to join. She did, hoping to see them rise to their former glory and rekindle the war with the Dark Order. That didn’t happen, and her stay was somewhat brief. No real progress towards too much of anything was accomplished, but she did get to know some of the legendary members and after this experience, she realized, Enigma was not the evil and cruel beings they had been labeled. In time Wiz became handfasted to Gavin. She had sworn off marrying ever again after her divorce from Underdog but Gavin was not only her friend, but a partner in crime. Gavin had big plans but sadly it was not meant to be. Gavin disappeared into the dark mist one evening. Years passed and one day she found herself hovering in the middle of the ocean. She removed her engagement ring and held it her hand. The sadness and frustration of years past, present and the unknown future clashed together in this one moment. She dropped the ring and watched the ring as it lulled deep into the water. A few months after this event, Gavin returned but it was too late.

From Enigma, sporadic clan hopping became her thing. Clan hopping is sometimes intentional and said to be in bad taste. Sometimes it’s not a bad thing. Someone is just looking for a certain feel, and if they don’t have that, they’re going to move on. Which was the case with Wiz. Still uneasy over what happened with Diversity, she requested a payout from the clan. She was given 15,000 roots which in turn went into the account of Euphoria. At the time they had a D hall, and her 15k roots pushed them over the requirement for their E hall. Things in Euphoria didn’t last, and she left them, looking for that certain something. She spent some time in The Fallen, the clan just became inactive and she was at a loss. The time finally came when she decided to challenge herself. Create a new clan. Not only that, but to activate it and achieve “A” hall without assistance. Higher start up cost, both in gold and roots, would make this alot more difficult than it once was. She wanted this to be a journey, her journey, and thus, clan Odyssey (#99) was born. It took her a real life month to activate and another real life month to achieve “A” hall. The clan thrived, but it was nothing like she had expected. (rl projects and a much needed break were at hand, so I decided to sell the clan.) The clan was turned over to a friend, who she felt would take care of it, Phreak. Wiz's absence was short and she returned to Alyria sooner than expected. She watched the clan from afar, not wanting to return, but just to see what course it might take. She again returned to Euphoria and was content for a long time. Old friends appeared and new ones were made. Feeling restless and uneasy, she watched Odyssey begin to crumble. The clan was sold to Gundam. He invited her back to lead alongside him. She declined but was glad to see him leading it. That didn’t last long either, and Odyssey was sold to Fraust. Her time with Euphoria came to a close. She requested to possibly return someday, and they have always made it very clear, she is always welcome there.

Her journey led her to clan Timeworn. A clan where she hardly knew anyone when she joined while her friends were elsewhere. An unfounded urge to move on creeps upon her some days, and she wonders if she should follow that instinct. Though she has not become the chaotic creature she was meant to be, the elder drow she has now become will tell you that good can not exist without evil. The location of her origin has yet to be revealed but rumors abound have led her to believe that her search is coming to a close. New friends grow closer as old friends are coming home. And.. she just may marry again. Someday. Time will tell. She keeps the select few that she trusts close by and others at a safe distance. Though she may not seem approachable, she is always willing to help those in need but do not take advantage of her, she gives no second chances. Through time she has gained a wisdom that now rules her serene existence. Sometimes, the melody of uncertainty fills the air and the excitement of the unknown awakens. She exists each day to see what it is that's lurking around that corner.

Wiz's primary residence is located in the city of Rune. She also owns a quiet getaway in Decara. She owns many donation and quest items and has given millions of gold and thousands of tourms to worthy causes.

Update: Since this historical writing was created Wizardress has left clan Timeworn and Joined Knights of Chaos, led by an old friend and former Diversity member, Knightotri. She also became engaged to Blackx and they quietly married in the summer of (the real life year) 2004.
