Shilara Has lived in the village since she was 7, adopted by a native couple after her parents were tragically killed. Her father and mother were great hunters in a nearby camp, and while her father was
teaching her the art of hunting one day, they were attacked by blood thirsty raptors. Her father and mother
fought valiantly to save her life, but were killed in the process, causing Shilara to try and survive until she could reach relative safety. Her adoptive family found her about a month later, underfed and underweight. The man took her back to the village and fed and clothed her, taking her in as one of his own. Being a hunter himself, he saw promise in young Shilara, and began to teach her the Elven art of archery.
When she became of age at 15, she began to hunt for the village, just like her adoptive father. Her mother taught her to sing, which was a great release for young Shilara, allowing her to emote her feelings through melodies.
When the village was attacked, she, again, lost the only people she called family. This was very hard for her, considering she was a bit of an outcast in the village because of her deadly nature. The one friend she did have, a half-elf boy, escaped into the jungle, but she does not know if he still lives or not.
When the Saurians attacked, she used her training to her advantage. She was able to find a hollow tree and hide out until the threat had passed. Returning to the village, she was horrified by the carnage. She ran to her home, hoping her family had survived, only to see their bodies mutilated beyond recognition.
Her life was torn apart that day. As she dwelled on the events more and more, she vowed to avenge her families, both biological and adopted. She now plans on hunting down these creatures and stopping them at all costs
.
Personality:
Shilara harbors a lot of demons from her past. Though she is relatively easy to get along with, her fuse can be short at times. She deals with her grief by spending a lot of time contemplating the world she lives in. Her escape is through the hunt, and she is a very dedicated to the art of hunting, always using the entire animal. She is loyal and compassionate, though a bit broken at the moment, and will align herself with anyone who has experienced the same trauma and wants to see these creatures destroyed
