About Lady Koralyn NightstarTraits - Note some of these are secret to the character:
Personality: Traits: Despite her high birth, she does not place herself above other folks and does not pay a lot of heed to the idea of nobility. Ideal: The people in Geoff need to be free of both the Giants and the Grand March. Bond: My duty to the Mage of the Valley is to make sure the war in Geoff never reaches his doorstep. I am his veiled agent and act on his behalf and in his best interest Flaw: While my kind is hated by other elves I secretly and deeply wish to be accepted by them. In addition to choosing a trait, ideal, bond, and flaw, answer these questions: What’s one magic item your character would go to great lengths to attain?:
Koralyn longs for a set of enchanted mithril (light) armor. What’s one thing your character wants that money can’t buy?:
To be accepted by other elves. Name and describe one person in Hochoch who would do you a favor (and might ask one in return).:
The leader of the Knights of the Dispatch, Basilisk Kerwynn, a middle-aged swordmage who looks favorably upon adventurers willing to venture into enemy lands. He knows of Koralyn's origins and accepts her for what she is, and is not. How does your character spend his or her money?:
Does he blow it at brothels and bars as fast as he earns it? Invest it in a business? Purchase expensive antiques? Support a family? Support an addiction to exotic drugs? [Note: This is mainly a flavor choice, but you will be able to “spend” money on your lifestyle if you want to gain various mechanical benefits, such as “fate point” style re-rolls, minor permanent abilities or to ensure a future treasure hoard contains an item that would be useful to you.] The lady spends in two areas. She is adding to an arcane library within Hochoch (and to her spellbook at the same time) and is known as a benefactor of this library. And she also maintains a somewhat extravagant lifestyle, well above that of a normal adventurer. This is at least partially sustained by her background.
Veiled Knight Background:
You have proven yourself to the Knights of the Dispatch and have accepted a veiled mission with them. While rank has some privileges, the clandestine nature of your long term assignment will delay some of its normal recognition. Only your closest friends and associates will know of your knightly status. Koralyn masquerades as a sage and adventurer. You gain one extra language of your choice from a list of the order's enemies.
The Knights of the Dispatch:
Formed in the aftermath of the giants’ invasion, the Knights of the Dispatch is a splinter sect of the Knights of the Watch whose members eschew the Watchers’ strict adherence to codes of conduct in favor of more flexible methods of waging war. The Dispatchers are among the staunchest proponents for continuous raids into Geoff ’s territory, which makes them popular among the lower classes. A small number of Dispatchers have considered forming a new Geoffite knightly order based solely in Hochoch. The local leader of the Dispatchers is the Grim Basilisk Kerwynn of Gorna, a middle-aged swordmage who looks favorably upon adventurers willing to venture into enemy lands. Appearance:
Koralyn is lithe, pale of skin with long strait blond hair and blue eyes. She is too fey in appearance to be beautiful. Her eyes are too far apart and her ears too pronounced for most tastes. Undisguised her heritage as a Valley Elf is unmistakable. She wears the robes of a sage. A longsword and longbow are both with her at all times and both are well used. Bladesinger:
Elf-only TRAINING IN WAR AND SONG When you adopt this tradition at 2nd level, you gain proficiency with light armor, and you gain proficiency with one type of one-handed melee weapon of your choice. You also gain proficiency in the Performance skill if you don't already have it. BLADESONG Starting at 2nd level, you can invoke a secret elven magic called the Bladesong, provided that you aren't wearing medium or heavy armor or using a shield. It graces you with supernatural speed, agility, and focus. You can use a bonus action to start the Bladesong, which lasts for 1 minute. It ends early if you are incapacitated, if you don medium or heavy armor or a shield, or if you use two hands to make an attack with a weapon. You can also dismiss the Bladesong at any time you choose (no action required). While your Bladesong is active, you gain the following benefits: * You gain a bonus to your AC equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of+ 1). * Your walking speed increases by 10 feet. * You have advantage on Dexterity (Acrobatics) checks. * You gain a bonus to any Constitution saving throw you make to maintain your concentration on a spell. The bonus equals your Intelligence modifier (minimum of +l). You can use this feature twice. You regain all expended uses of it when you finish a short or long rest. EXTRA ATTACK Starting at 6th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn. SONG OF DEFENSE Beginning at 10th level, you can direct your magic to absorb damage while your Bladesong is active. When you take damage, you can use your reaction to expend one spell slot and reduce that damage to you by an amount equal to five times the spell slot's level. SONG OF VICTORY Starting at 14th level, you add your Intelligence modifier (minimum of +1) to the damage of your melee weapon attacks while your Bladesong is active. Bonus Feat:
Agent of the Valley Your kind have few friends outside the Valley of the Mage, but you have learned how to pass unnoticed among men. * You are proficient in the Deception skill and with disguise kits. You may use your Intelligence modifier instead of your Charisma modifier when making checks with either proficiency. * You know the disguise self spell and can cast it once per short rest without using a spell slot. Your proficiency bonus is doubled when calculating the spell save DC to see through the disguise. * When you cast disguise self, you can extend the spell's duration beyond 1 hour by maintaining concentration.

Spell slots and spells used:
Cantrips Booming Blade:
Evocation cantrip Casting Time: 1 action Range: 5 feet Components: V, M (a weapon) Duration: 1 round As part of the action used to cast this spell, you must make a melee attack with a weapon against one creature within the spell's range, otherwise the spell fails. On a hit, the target suffers the attack's normal effects, and it becomes sheathed in booming energy until the start of your next turn. If the target willingly moves before then, it immediately takes 1d8 thunder damage, and the spell ends. This spell's damage increases when you reach higher levels. At 5th level, the melee attack deals an extra 1d8 thunder damage to the target, and the damage the target takes for moving increases to 2d8. Both damage rolls increase by 1d8 at 11th level and 17th level.
Fire Bolt:
Evocation cantrip Casting Time: I action Range: 120 feet Components: V,S Duration: Instantaneous You hurl a mote of fire at a creature or object within range. Make a ranged spell attack against the target. On a hit, the target takes 1d10 fire damage. A flammable object hit by this spell ignites if it isn't being worn or carried. This spell's damage increases by 1d10 when you reach 5th level (2d10), 11th level (3d10), and 16th level (4d10). Minor Illusion:
Illusion Cantrip Casting Time: 1 Action Range: 30 Feet Components: S, M (a bit of fleece) Duration: 1 Minute You create a sound or an image of an object within range that lasts for the duration. The illusion also ends if you dismiss it as an action or cast the spell again. If you create a sound, its volume can range from a whisper to a scream. It can be your voice, someone else's voice, a lion's roar, a beating of drums, or any other sound you choose. The sound continues unabated throughout the duration or you can make discrete sounds at different times before the spell ends. If you create an image of an object—such as a chair, muddy footprints, or a small chest—it must be no larger than a 5-foot cube. The image can't create sound, light, smell or any other sensory effect. Physical interaction with the object reveals it to be an illusion, because things can pass through it. If a creature uses its action to examine the sound or image, the creature can determine that it is an illusion with a successful Intelligence (Investigation) check against your spell DC. If the creature discerns the illusion for what it is, the illusion becomes faint to the creature.
Prestidigitation:
transmutation cantrip Casting Time: 1 action Range: 10 feet Components: V, S Duration: Up to 1 hour This spell is a minor magical trick that novice spell-casters use for practice.

___________________________________ First Level Absorb Elements; Reaction:
1st-level abjuration Casting Time: 1 reaction, which you take when you take acid, cold, fire, lightning, or thunder damage Range: Self Components: S Duration: 1 round The spell captures some of the incoming energy, lessening its effect on you and storing it for your next melee attack. You have resistance to the triggering damage type until the start of your next turn. Also, the first time you hit with a melee attack on your next turn, the target takes an extra 1d6 damage of the triggering type, and the spell ends. At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the extra damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 1st.
Alarm; Ritual:
1st-level abjuration (ritual) Casting Time: 1 action Range: 30 feet Components: V, S, M (a tiny bell and a piece of fine silver wire) Duration: 8 hours You set an alarm against unwanted intrusion. Choose a door, a window, or an area within range that is no larger than a 20-foot cube. Until the spell ends, an alarm alerts you whenever a Tiny or larger creature touches or enters the warded area. When you cast the spell, you can designate creatures that won’t set off the alarm. You also choose whether the alarm is mental or audible.

An audible alarm produces the sound of a hand bell for 10 seconds within 60 feet.
Detect Magic; Ritual:

If you sense magic in this way, you can use your action to see a faint aura around any visible creature or object in the area that bears magic, and you learn its school of magic, if any. The spell can penetrate most barriers, but it is blocked by 1 foot of stone, 1 inch of common metal, a thin sheet of lead, or 3 feet of wood or dirt.
Disguise Self - DC to see through uses double proficiency bonus, or +2 and can extend long term with concentration:
1st-level illusion Casting Time: 1 action Range: Self Components: V, S Duration: 1 hour You make yourself – including your clothing, armor, weapons, and other belongings on your person – look different until the spell ends or until you use your action to dismiss it. You can seem 1 foot shorter or taller and can appear thin, fat, or in between. You can’t change your body type, so you must adopt a form that has the same basic arrangement of limbs. Otherwise, the extent of the illusion is up to you. The changes wrought by this spell fail to hold up to physical inspection. For example, if you use this spell to add a hat to your outfit, objects pass through the hat, and anyone who touches it would feel nothing or would feel your head and hair. If you use this spell to appear thinner than you are, the hand of someone who reaches out to touch you would bump into you while it was seemingly still in midair. To discern that you are disguised, a creature can use its action to inspect your appearance and must succeed on an Intelligence (Investigation) check against your spell save DC.
False Life:

Mage Armor:
1st-level abjuration Casting Time: 1 action Range: Touch Components: V, S, M (a piece of cured leather) Duration: 8 hours You touch a willing creature who isn’t wearing armor, and a protective magical force surrounds it until the spell ends.

On a success, the spell ends.
___________________________________ Second Level Blur:
2nd-level illusion Casting Time: 1 action Range: Self Components: V Duration: Concentration, up to 1 Minute Your body becomes blurred, shifting and wavering to all who can see you.

Mirror Image:
2nd-level illusion Casting Time: 1 action Range: Self Components: V, S Duration: 1 Minute Three illusory duplicates of yourself appear in your space. Until the spell ends, the duplicates move with you and mimic your actions, shifting position so it’s impossible to track which image is real. You can use your action to dismiss the illusory duplicates. Each time a creature targets you with an attack during the spell’s duration, roll a d20 to determine whether the attack instead targets one of your duplicates. If you have three duplicates, you must roll a 6 or higher to change the attack’s target to a duplicate. With two duplicates, you must roll an 8 or higher. With one duplicate, you must roll an 11 or higher. A duplicate’s AC equals 10 + your Dexterity modifier. If an attack hits a duplicate, the duplicate is destroyed. A duplicate can be destroyed only by an attack that hits it. It ignores all other damage and effects. The spell ends when all three duplicates are destroyed.

Regardless of the creature’s abilities or magic items, it can’t make more than one melee or ranged attack during its turn. If the creature attempts to cast a spell with a casting time of 1 action, roll a d20.
