Name:
Elisana Navarn


Nicknames:
Eli, Ana


Position:
Herald


Age:
13


Physical Description:
Elisana is 5'3'' tall, with a thin appearance, as if she hasn't had enough to eat for a while, yet she is faintly muscular. She has slightly wavy gold hair with faint reddish gold highlights that goes down almost to her knees. Her left eye is a sapphire blue, like a companions, and her right eye is a deep green. Both eyes are slightly slitted, and they seem to hold a deep sadness. Her skin is tanned from being out in the sun, and her hands are callused from hard labor. She has a delicate small mouth, on which the lower lip is kind of ragged because she often bites it when she is worried. Her face is slightly oval shaped.


Personality/Attitude:
Elisana is shy around people, and tries not to look people in the eye. She is also quiet, and can sometimes listen to other people have a conversation for hours on end and never speak a word. She is very hard to get to know, for she doesn't speak freely, and will almost never start a conversation, though if you ask her a question she will almost always answer it, and can sometimes keep a conversation going if someone else starts it with her. But when she gets to know someone well, she talks freely with them, though she still sometimes finds it hard to know what to say. Contrary to her shy nature, she has a fierce temper that comes out when someone aggravates her. She will usually blend into the shadows, and try to make herself unnoticed. She hears more than people usually guess, yet usually does not tell anyone of what she hears. Though she seems like such a gloomy person, that is not the case. Her moods can change from one mood to the next with startling quickness. She is sometimes full of energy, and sometimes can hardly find the energy to get out of bed and start moving. She is also very curious, which can sometimes get her into trouble.


Brief History:
Elisana was born to an obscure noble on the Karsite border near white foal pass. She lived a happy and contented life with parents who loved her and the servant's children to play with. She also learned to read, write and figure, as well as something of sword work and archery. She was an only child, and was content with her life until the middle of autumn when she was 12. She was off picking nuts in the woods outside the town, when she smelled smoke, she ran back to the village and found it had been burned and everyone killed, she saw a large group of what she assumed were bandits, though they were too well organized for that, and she thought she saw someone who looked like a commander with them, going away into the mountains and immediately knew what had happened. She ran away through the woods and lost herself. She mourned her parent’s death and couldn't find the will to live. But then, when she was wandering aimlessly through the woods, she saw a flash of white, succumbing to her curious nature, she went to investigate, and what she found changed her life. It was Felara. She stumbled out of the woods and found herself face to face with the companion. :I am Felara, and I chose you.: She heard in her head, and with it, such love and acceptance she had never known, except in part with her parents.
