Description: Tahlaera is a tall and slender elf with steel-blue eyes and golden blond hair worn down to her shoulders. She would be considered far prettier were it not for the cold reserve with which she carries herself. She dresses in functional attire: a pair of plain leather pants and plain leather shirt under her chainmail, with a dark green cloak draped over her slender shoulders.
Background:
While elves were involved in the Shining Crusade that defeated Tar-Baphon, it is commonly thought that the elves of Kyonin abandoned the nation of Ustalav to its own devices after the Whispering Tyrant's defeat. But having imprisoned and not destroyed the Whispering Tyrant, the elves knew that they would have to keep vigil to ensure that Tar-Baphon never became a threat again. As such, ever since the end of the Shining Crusade, Kyonin has maintained agents in Ustalav and the surrounding areas to keep tabs on and investigate the Whispering Way and its imprisoned master.
Tahlaera is one such agent, and it was their shared interest in the Whispering Way that brought Tahlaera to Professor Lorrimer's attention. The two were investigating the same connection to the Whispering Way independently when they were ambushed. Tahlaera saved Lorrimer's life in the ambush, and after having discovered that their goals were aligned, the professor and the elf joined forces. The two kept in touch after that mission was over, and the professor was impressed with Tahlaera enough that he attempted to hire her as a bodyguard on several subsequent occasions. Since their interests aligned when it came to the Whispering Way, Tahlaera gladly went along. Over time, Tahlaera also came to be something of a friend to the man--as much as a non-Forlorn elf can be to a human, at least. Thus, she was saddened to hear the news that he had died, and hurried as quickly as she could to Ravengro to attend his funeral.
